2 I want to be inthe courtyards of the Lord’s Temple.My whole being wantsto be with the living God.
3 The sparrows have found a home.And the swallows have nests.They raise their young near your altars,Lord of heaven’s armies, my King and my God.
4 Happy are the people who live at your Temple.They are always praising you. Selah
5 Happy are those whose strength comes from you.They want to travel to Jerusalem.
6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca,they make it like a spring.The autumn rains fill it with pools of water.
7 The people get stronger as they go.And everyone meets with God in Jerusalem.
8 Lord God of heaven’s armies, hear my prayer.God of Jacob, listen to me. Selah
