Psalm 84:8-10

Amplified Bible

⁸ 
O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer;
Listen, O God of Jacob! Selah.
⁹ 
See our shield, O God,
And look at the face of Your anointed [the king as Your representative].
¹⁰ 
For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand [anywhere else];
I would rather stand [as a doorkeeper] at the threshold of the house of my God
Than to live [at ease] in the tents of wickedness.
