Wie lieblich sind deine Wohnungen, Herr Zebaoth! Meine Seele verlanget und sehnet sich nach den Vorhöfen des Herrn; mein Leib und Seele freuen sich in dem lebendigen Gott. Wie lieblich sind deine Wohnungen, Herr Zebaoth! Wohl denen, die in deinem Hause wohnen, die loben dich immerdar. Wie lieblich sind deine Wohnungen!

Quanto amabili sono le tue dimore Signore dell' universo! L'anima mia ti desidera ardentemente e vuole trovare in te il suo rifugio; Corpo ed anima si rallegrano In seno al Dio vivente. Quanto amabili sono le tue dimore Signore dell' universo! Beato chi nella tua casa dimora: cantando le tue lodi in eterno! Quanto amabili sono le tue dimore!
