1 How amiable are thy tabernacles, O Jehovah of hosts!

1 לַמְנַצֵּ֥חַ עַֽל־הַגִּתִּ֑ית לִבְנֵי־קֹ֥רַח מִזְמֹֽור׃

2 My soul longeth, yea, even fainteth for the courts of Jehovah; My heart and my flesh cry out unto the living God.

2 מַה־יְּדִידֹ֥ות מִשְׁכְּנֹותֶ֗יךָ יְהוָ֥ה צְבָאֹֽות׃

3 Yea, the sparrow hath found her a house, And the swallow a nest for herself, where she may lay her young, Even thine altars, O Jehovah of hosts, My King, and my God.

3 נִכְסְפָ֬ה וְגַם־כָּלְתָ֨ה׀ נַפְשִׁי֮ לְחַצְרֹ֪ות יְה֫וָ֥ה לִבִּ֥י וּבְשָׂרִ֑י יְ֝רַנְּנ֗וּ אֶ֣ל אֵֽל־חָֽי׃

4 Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: They will be still praising thee. Selah

4 גַּם־צִפֹּ֨ור׀ מָ֪צְאָה בַ֡יִת וּדְרֹ֤ור׀ קֵ֥ן לָהּ֮ אֲשֶׁר־שָׁ֪תָה אֶפְרֹ֫חֶ֥יהָ אֶֽת־מִ֭זְבְּחֹותֶיךָ יְהוָ֣ה צְבָאֹ֑ות מַ֝לְכִּ֗י וֵאלֹהָֽי׃

5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; In whose heart are the highways `to Zion'.

5 אַ֭שְׁרֵי יֹושְׁבֵ֣י בֵיתֶ֑ךָ עֹ֝֗וד יְֽהַלְל֥וּךָ סֶּֽלָה׃

6 Passing through the valley of Weeping they make it a place of springs; Yea, the early rain covereth it with blessings.

6 אַשְׁרֵ֣י אָ֭דָם עֹֽוז־לֹ֥ו בָ֑ךְ מְ֝סִלֹּ֗ות בִּלְבָבָֽם׃

7 They go from strength to strength; Every one of them appeareth before God in Zion.

7 עֹבְרֵ֤י׀ בְּעֵ֣מֶק הַ֭בָּכָא מַעְיָ֣ן יְשִׁית֑וּהוּ גַּם־בְּ֝רָכֹ֗ות יַעְטֶ֥ה מֹורֶֽה׃

8 O Jehovah God of hosts, hear my prayer; Give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah

8 יֵ֭לְכוּ מֵחַ֣יִל אֶל־חָ֑יִל יֵרָאֶ֖ה אֶל־אֱלֹהִ֣ים בְּצִיֹּֽון׃

9 Behold, O God our shield, And look upon the face of thine anointed.

9 יְה֘וָ֤ה אֱלֹהִ֣ים צְ֭בָאֹות שִׁמְעָ֣ה תְפִלָּתִ֑י הַאֲזִ֨ינָה אֱלֹהֵ֖י יַעֲקֹ֣ב סֶֽלָה׃

10 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.

10 מָ֭גִנֵּנוּ רְאֵ֣ה אֱלֹהִ֑ים וְ֝הַבֵּ֗ט פְּנֵ֣י מְשִׁיחֶֽךָ׃

11 For Jehovah God is a sun and a shield: Jehovah will give grace and glory; No good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

11 כִּ֤י טֹֽוב־יֹ֥ום בַּחֲצֵרֶ֗יךָ מֵ֫אָ֥לֶף בָּחַ֗רְתִּי הִ֭סְתֹּופֵף בְּבֵ֣ית אֱלֹהַ֑י מִ֝דּ֗וּר בְּאָהֳלֵי־רֶֽשַׁע׃

12 O Jehovah of hosts, Blessed is the man that trusteth in thee. Psalm 85 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

12 כִּ֤י שֶׁ֨מֶשׁ׀ וּמָגֵן֮ יְהוָ֪ה אֱלֹ֫הִ֥ים חֵ֣ן וְ֭כָבֹוד יִתֵּ֣ן יְהוָ֑ה לֹ֥א יִמְנַע־טֹ֝֗וב לַֽהֹלְכִ֥ים בְּתָמִֽים׃
