Psalm 84:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 Behold, O God, our shield, and look upon the face of thine [a]Anointed.
10 For [b]a day in thy courts is better than a thousand other where: I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tabernacles of wickedness.
11 For the Lord God is the sun and shield unto us: the Lord will give grace and glory, and no [c]good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.

Psalm 84:9-11
New International Version
10 Better is one day in your courts
than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper(C) in the house of my God
than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
11 For the Lord God is a sun(D) and shield;(E)
the Lord bestows favor and honor;
no good thing does he withhold(F)
from those whose walk is blameless.
