5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, in whose heart are the highways to Zion.^[2] (Ps 122,1) 6 As they go through the Valley of Baca they make it a place of springs; the early rain also covers it with pools.

(Ps 3,3; Ps 80,14) 10 For a day in your courts is better than a thousand elsewhere. I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness.
