A single day in your courtyards is better than a thousand anywhere else. I would rather guard the door of the house of my God than live in the tents of sinful people.

All you who serve the Lord, praise the Lord. All you who serve at night in the house of the Lord, praise him.

Lord who rules over all, how lovely is the place where you live!I can’t wait to be in the courtyards of the Lord’ s temple. I really want to be there. My whole being cries out for the living God.

I look up to the mountains. Where does my help come from?

God, you are my God. I seek you with all my heart. With all my strength I thirst for you in this dry desert where there isn’t any water.I have seen you in the sacred tent. There I have seen your power and your glory.Your love is better than life. So I will bring glory to you with my lips.

I call out to the Lord when I’m in trouble, and he answers me.

Lord, I cry out to you because I’m suffering so deeply.

Blessed are all those who have respect for the Lord. They live as he wants them to live.

Your covenant laws are your gift to me forever. They fill my heart with joy.

Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion. They will always be secure. They will last forever.

When I remember what has happened, I tell God all my troubles. I remember how I used to walk to the house of God. The Mighty One guarded my steps. We shouted with joy and praised God as we went along with the joyful crowd.

Here is what Israel should say.“ My enemies have treated me badly ever since I was a young nation.

If the Lord doesn’t build a house, the work of the builders is useless. If the Lord doesn’t watch over a city, it’s useless for those on guard duty to stand watch over it.

Lord, my heart isn’t proud. My eyes aren’t proud either. I don’t concern myself with important matters. I don’t concern myself with things that are too wonderful for me.

Here is what Israel should say. Suppose the Lord had not been on our side.

How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in peace!

We used to enjoy good friendship at the house of God. We used to walk together among those who came to worship.

Our enemies took us away from Zion. But when the Lord brought us home, it seemed like a dream to us.

I look up and pray to you. Your throne is in heaven.

“ The days are coming,” announces the Lord.“ At that time the people of Israel and Judah will gather together. They will come in tears to me. I am the Lord their God.They will ask how to get to Zion. Then they will turn their faces toward it. They will come and join themselves to me. They will enter into the covenant I make with them. It will last forever. It will never be forgotten.

There will be a day when those on guard duty will cry out. They will stand on the hills of Ephraim. And they will shout,‘ Come! Let’s go up to Zion. Let’s go up to where the Lord our God is.’ ”

The people who live in one city will go to another city. They will say,‘ Let’s go right away to ask the Lord for his blessing. Let’s look to him as our God. We ourselves are going.’Large numbers of people and nations will come to Jerusalem. They will look to me. They will ask me to bless them.”He continued,“ At that time many people of all nations and languages will take hold of one Jew. They will grab hold of the hem of his robe. And they will say,‘ We want to go to Jerusalem with you. We’ve heard that God is with you.’ ”

Lord, remember David and all the times he didn’t do what he wanted.
