⁴ One thing^(A) I ask from the Lord,
    this only do I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
    all the days of my life,^(B)
to gaze on the beauty of the Lord
    and to seek him in his temple.

¹⁰ Better is one day in your courts
    than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper^(A) in the house of my God
    than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
