More than gold

The law of YHWH is perfect [blameless],

reviving the soul;



The testimony of YHWH is sure,

making wise the simple



The precepts of YHWH are right,

rejoicing the heart



The commandment of YHWH is pure,

enlightening the eyes



The fear of YHWH is clean,

enduring forever



The rules [just decrees] of YHWH are true and righteous altogether;



more to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold

sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb.

by them is your servant warned and in keeping them there is great reward.


Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight

O YHWH, my Rock and my Redeemer!


-Psalm 19:7-11, 14
