84:1 For the music director; according to the gittith style; ²  written by the Korahites, a psalm.

How lovely is the place where you live, ³ 

O Lord who rules over all! ⁴ 

84:2 I desperately want to be ⁵ 

in the courts of the Lord’s temple. ⁶ 

My heart and my entire being ⁷  shout for joy

to the living God.

84:3 Even the birds find a home there,

and the swallow ⁸  builds a nest,

where she can protect her young ⁹ 

near your altars, O Lord who rules over all,

my king and my God.

84:4 How blessed ¹⁰  are those who live in your temple

and praise you continually! (Selah)

1:11 God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: ¹  plants yielding seeds according to their kinds, ²  and ³  trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds.” It was so. 1:12 The land produced vegetation – plants yielding seeds according to their kinds, and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. God saw that it was good. 1:13 There was evening, and there was morning, a third day.

1:6 God said, “Let there be an expanse ⁷  in the midst of the waters and let it separate water ⁸  from water. 1:7 So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. ⁹  It was so. ¹⁰  1:8 God called the expanse “sky.” ¹¹  There was evening, and there was morning, a second day.

1:9 God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place ¹²  and let dry ground appear.” ¹³  It was so.
