• Blessed Is the Man Who Trusts in You

  • 1 How lovely are Your dwelling places, O Yahweh of hosts!
  • 2 My soul has longed and even fainted for the courts of Yahweh; My heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God.
  • 3 Even the bird has found a home, And the swallow a nest for herself, where she sets her young, At Your altars, O Yahweh of hosts, My King and my God.
  • 4 How blessed are those who dwell in Your house! They are ever praising You. Selah.
  • 5 How blessed is the man whose strength is in You, In whose heart are the highways to Zion!
  • 6 Passing through the valley of Baca they make it a spring; The early rain also wraps it up with blessings.
  • 7 They go from strength to strength, Each one of them appears before God in Zion.
  • 8 O Yahweh God of hosts, hear my prayer; Give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah.
  • 9 See our shield, O God, And look upon the face of Your anointed.
  • 10 For better is a day in Your courts than a thousand elsewhere. I would choose to stand at the threshold of the house of my God Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
  • 11 For Yahweh God is a sun and shield; Yahweh gives grace and glory; No good thing does He withhold from those who walk blamelessly.
  • 12 O Yahweh of hosts, How blessed is the man who trusts in You!
