Look at our shield, O God.
Look with favor on the face of your anointed one.
10 One day in your courtyards is better than a thousand ⌞anywhere else⌟.
I would rather stand in the entrance to my God’s house
than live inside wicked people’s homes.
11 The Lord God is a sun and shield.
The Lord grants favor and honor.
He does not hold back any blessing
from those who live innocently.

Look on our shield,[a](A) O God;
    look with favor on your anointed one.(B)

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.
