6Passing through the valley of Baca, they make it a fountain; and the early rain covereth it with blessings.
7They go on from strength to strength; Every one of them appeareth before God in Zion.
8Hear my prayer, O LORD, God of hosts! Give ear, O God of Jacob! Pause.
9Look down, O God! our shield, And behold the face of thine anointed!
10For a day spent in thy courts is better than a thousand: I would rather stand on the threshold of the house of my God, Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
11For the LORD God is a sun and a shield; The LORD giveth grace and glory; No good thing doth he withhold From them that walk uprightly.
