Psalms:84-87
Seeker Overlay ON
*
How amiable are thy tabernacles ,
O LORD of hosts !
*
My soul longeth ,
yea ,
even fainteth for the courts of the LORD :
my heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God .
*
Yea ,
the sparrow hath found an house ,
and the swallow a nest for herself ,
where she may lay her young ,
even thine altars ,
O LORD of hosts ,
my King ,
and my God .
*
Blessed are they that dwell in thy house :
they will be still praising thee .
Selah .
*
Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee ;
in whose heart are the ways of them .
*
Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well ;
the rain also filleth the pools .
*
They go from strength to strength ,
every one of them in Zion appeareth before God .
*
O LORD God of hosts ,
hear my prayer :
give ear ,
O God of Jacob .
Selah .
*
Behold ,
O God our shield ,
and look upon the face of thine anointed .
*
For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand .
I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God ,
than to dwell in the tents of wickedness .
*
For the LORD God is a sun and shield :
the LORD will give grace and glory :
no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly .
*
O LORD of hosts ,
blessed is the man that trusteth in thee .
*
LORD ,
thou hast been favourable unto thy land :
thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob .
*
Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people ,
thou hast covered all their sin .
Selah .
*
Thou hast taken away all thy wrath :
thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger .
*
Turn us ,
O God of our salvation ,
and cause thine anger toward us to cease .
*
Wilt thou be angry with us for ever ?
wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations ?
*
Wilt thou not revive us again :
that thy people may rejoice in thee ?
*
Shew us thy mercy ,
O LORD ,
and grant us thy salvation .
*
I will hear what God the LORD will speak :
for he will speak peace unto his people ,
and to his saints :
but let them not turn again to folly .
*
Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him ;
that glory may dwell in our land .
*
Mercy and truth are met together ;
righteousness and peace have kissed each other .
*
Truth shall spring out of the earth ;
and righteousness shall look down from heaven .
*
Yea ,
the LORD shall give that which is good ;
and our land shall yield her increase .
*
Righteousness shall go before him ;
and shall set us in the way of his steps .
*
Bow down thine ear ,
O LORD ,
hear me :
for I am poor and needy .
*
Preserve my soul ;
for I am holy :
O thou my God ,
save thy servant that trusteth in thee .
*
Be merciful unto me ,
O Lord :
for I cry unto thee daily .
*
Rejoice the soul of thy servant :
for unto thee ,
O Lord ,
do I lift up my soul .
*
For thou ,
Lord ,
art good ,
and ready to forgive ;
and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee .
*
Give ear ,
O LORD ,
unto my prayer ;
and attend to the voice of my supplications .
*
In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee :
for thou wilt answer me .
*
Among the gods there is none like unto thee ,
O Lord ;
neither are there any works like unto thy works .
*
All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee ,
O Lord ;
and shall glorify thy name .
*
For thou art great ,
and doest wondrous things :
thou art God alone .
*
Teach me thy way ,
O LORD ;
I will walk in thy truth :
unite my heart to fear thy name .
*
I will praise thee ,
O Lord my God ,
with all my heart :
and I will glorify thy name for evermore .
*
For great is thy mercy toward me :
and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell .
*
O God ,
the proud are risen against me ,
and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul ;
and have not set thee before them .
*
But thou ,
O Lord ,
art a God full of compassion ,
and gracious ,
longsuffering ,
and plenteous in mercy and truth .
*
O turn unto me ,
and have mercy upon me ;
give thy strength unto thy servant ,
and save the son of thine handmaid .
*
Shew me a token for good ;
that they which hate me may see it ,
and be ashamed :
because thou ,
LORD ,
hast holpen me ,
and comforted me .
*
His foundation is in the holy mountains .
*
The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob .
*
Glorious things are spoken of thee ,
O city of God .
Selah .
*
I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me :
behold Philistia ,
and Tyre ,
with Ethiopia ;
this man was born there .
*
And of Zion it shall be said ,
This and that man was born in her :
and the highest himself shall establish her .
*
The LORD shall count ,
when he writeth up the people ,
that this man was born there .
Selah .
*
As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there :
all my springs are in thee .
*
O LORD God of my salvation ,
I have cried day and night before thee :
