4 I have asked one thing from the Lord;

it is what I desire:

to dwell in the house of the Lord

all the days of my life,x

gazing on the beauty of the Lordy

and seeking him in his temple.z

5 For he will conceal me in his shelter

in the day of adversity;

he will hide me under the cover of his tent;

he will set me high on a rock.aa

6 Then my head will be high

above my enemies around me;ab

I will offer sacrifices in his tent with shouts of joy.ac

I will sing and make music to the Lord.ad
