Psalm 84:5-12
New International Version
5 Blessed are those whose strength(A) is in you,
whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.(B)
6 As they pass through the Valley of Baka,
they make it a place of springs;(C)
the autumn(D) rains also cover it with pools.[a]
7 They go from strength to strength,(E)
till each appears(F) before God in Zion.(G)
8 Hear my prayer,(H) Lord God Almighty;
listen to me, God of Jacob.
9 Look on our shield,[b](I) O God;
look with favor on your anointed one.(J)
10 Better is one day in your courts
than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper(K) in the house of my God
than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
11 For the Lord God is a sun(L) and shield;(M)
the Lord bestows favor and honor;
no good thing does he withhold(N)
from those whose walk is blameless.
12 Lord Almighty,
blessed(O) is the one who trusts in you.

King James Version
5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them.
6 Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.
7 They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God.
8 O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer: give ear, O God of Jacob. Selah.
9 Behold, O God our shield, and look upon the face of thine anointed.
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.
11 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.
12 O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
