渴慕耶和華殿宇
84 可拉後裔的詩，交於伶長。用迦特樂器。
1 萬軍之耶和華啊，你的居所何等可愛！
2 我羨慕渴想耶和華的院宇，我的心腸、我的肉體向永生神呼籲[a]。
3 萬軍之耶和華，我的王我的神啊，在你祭壇那裡，麻雀為自己找著房屋，燕子為自己找著抱雛之窩。
4 如此住在你殿中的，便為有福！他們仍要讚美你。（細拉）
得力於主者乃為有福
5 靠你有力量，心中想往錫安大道的，這人便為有福！
6 他們經過流淚谷，叫這谷變為泉源之地，並有秋雨之福蓋滿了全谷。
7 他們行走，力上加力，各人到錫安朝見神。
8 耶和華萬軍之神啊，求你聽我的禱告！雅各的神啊，求你留心聽！（細拉）
居主殿宇者承受恩榮
9 神啊，你是我們的盾牌，求你垂顧觀看你受膏者的面。
10 在你的院宇住一日，勝似在別處住千日。寧可在我神殿中看門，不願住在惡人的帳篷裡。
11 因為耶和華神是日頭，是盾牌，要賜下恩惠和榮耀，他未嘗留下一樣好處，不給那些行動正直的人。
12 萬軍之耶和華啊，倚靠你的人便為有福！
安慰門徒的心
14 「你們心裡不要憂愁，你們信神，也當信我。 2 在我父的家裡有許多住處，若是沒有，我就早已告訴你們了，我去原是為你們預備地方去。3 我若去為你們預備了地方，就必再來接你們到我那裡去，我在哪裡，叫你們也在哪裡。
