O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer;
Listen, O God of Jacob! Selah.

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.

Hear my prayer,(A) Lord God Almighty;
    listen to me, God of Jacob.
Look on our shield,[a](B) O God;
    look with favor on your anointed one.(C)

10 Better is one day in your courts
    than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper(D) in the house of my God
    than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
