8. Lord God of heavenly forces,hear my prayer;listen closely, Jacob’s God! Selah
9. Look at our shield, God;pay close attention to the face of your anointed one!
10. Better is a single day in your courtyardsthan a thousand days anywhere else!I would prefer to stand outside the entrance of my God’s housethan live comfortably in the tents of the wicked!
11. The Lord is a sun and shield;God is favor and glory.The Lord gives—doesn’t withhold!—good thingsto those who walk with integrity.
12. Lord of heavenly forces,those who trust in you are truly happy!
