3 Even the sparrow has found a home,
And the swallow a nest for herself,
Where she may lay her young—
Even Your altars, O Lord of hosts,
My King and my God.

4 Blessed are those who dwell in Your ^ahouse;
They will still be praising You. Selah ‡

8 O Lord God of hosts, hear my prayer;
Give ear, O God of Jacob! Selah

9 ^aO God, behold our shield,
And look upon the face of Your¹ anointed. ‡
