Psalms 84:7-10

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.
