For the music director; according to the gittith style; written by the Korahites, a psalm.
84:1 How lovely is the place where you live,
O Lord who rules over all!
84:2 I desperately want to be
in the courts of the Lord’s temple.
My heart and my entire being shout for joy
to the living God.
84:3 Even the birds find a home there,
and the swallow builds a nest,
where she can protect her young
near your altars, O Lord who rules over all,
my king and my God.
84:4 How blessed are those who live in your temple
and praise you continually! (Selah)
