9. Look on our shield, O God;look with favour on your anointed one.
10. Better is one day in your courtsthan a thousand elsewhere;I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my Godthan dwell in the tents of the wicked.
11. For the Lord God is a sun and shield;the Lord bestows favour and honour;no good thing does he withholdfrom those whose way of life is blameless.
