Psalms 84:9-12

Psalms 84

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

9Take notice of our shield, O God, and look with favor on the face of Your anointed.

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.

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.

12O LORD of Hosts, how blessed is the man who trusts in You!
