6 As they pass through the dry valley of Baca,it becomes a place of springs;the autumn rain fills it with pools.
7 They grow stronger as they go;they will see the God of gods on Zion.
8 Hear my prayer, Lord God Almighty.Listen, O God of Jacob!
9 Bless our king, O God,the king you have chosen.
10 One day spent in your Templeis better than a thousand anywhere else;I would rather stand at the gate of the house of my Godthan live in the homes of the wicked.
11 The Lord is our protector and glorious king,blessing us with kindness and honour.He does not refuse any good thingto those who do what is right.
12 Lord Almighty, how happy are those who trust in you!
