Psalms 27:4

Context

27:4 I have asked the Lord for one thing –

this is what I desire!

I want to live 1  in the Lord’s house 2  all the days of my life,

so I can gaze at the splendor 3  of the Lord

and contemplate in his temple.

Psalms 123:2

Context

123:2 Look, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their master,

as the eyes of a female servant look to the hand of her mistress, 4 

so my eyes will look to the Lord, our God, until he shows us favor.

1 tn Heb “my living.”

2 sn The Lord’s house. This probably refers to the tabernacle (if one accepts Davidic authorship) or the temple (see Judg 19:18; 1 Sam 1:7, 24; 2 Sam 12:20; 1 Kgs 7:12, 40, 45, 51).

3 tn Or “beauty.”

4 sn Servants look to their master for food, shelter, and other basic needs.
