1Unto the end, for the sons of Core, a psalm.
1How lovely is Your dwelling place, O LORD of Hosts!
2Lord, thou hast blessed thy land: thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob.
2My soul longs, even faints, for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.
3Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people: thou hast covered all their sins.
3Even the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she places her young near Your altars, O LORD of Hosts, my King and my God.
4Thou hast mitigated all thy anger: thou best turned away from the wrath of thy indignation.
4How blessed are those who dwell in Your house! They are ever praising You. Selah
5Convert us, O God our saviour: and turn off thy anger from us.
5Blessed are those whose strength is in You, whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.
6Wilt thou be angry with us for ever: or wilt thou extend thy wrath from generation to generation?
6As they pass through the Valley of Baca, they make it a place of springs; even the autumn rain covers it with pools.
7Thou wilt turn, O God, and bring us to life: and thy people shall rejoice in thee.
7They go from strength to strength, until each appears before God in Zion.
8Shew us, O Lord, thy mercy; and grant us thy salvation.
8O LORD God of Hosts, hear my prayer; give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah
9I will hear what the Lord God will speak in me: for he will speak peace unto his people: And unto his saints: and unto them that are converted to the heart.
9Take notice of our shield, O God, and look with favor on the face of Your anointed.
10Surely his salvation is near to them that fear him: that glory may dwell in our land.
10For better is one day in Your courts than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
11Mercy and truth have met each other: justice and peace have kissed.
11For the LORD God is a sun and a shield; the LORD gives grace and glory; He withholds no good thing from those who walk with integrity.
12Truth is sprung out of the earth: and justice hath looked down from heaven.
12O LORD of Hosts, how blessed is the man who trusts in You!
13For the Lord will give goodness: and our earth shall yield her fruit.
