7  ^jHow precious is your steadfast love, O God!

The children of mankind take refuge ^kin the shadow of your wings.

8  They feast on ^lthe abundance of your house,

and you give them drink from ^mthe river of ⁿyour delights.

9  For with you is ^othe fountain of life;

^pin your light do we see light.

1  How ^rlovely is your ^sdwelling place,

O Lord of hosts!

2  My soul ^tlongs, yes, ^ufaints

for the courts of the Lord;

my heart and flesh sing for joy

to ^vthe living God.

10  For a day ^hin your courts is better

than a thousand elsewhere.

I would rather be ⁱa doorkeeper in the house of my God

than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
