I delight in following Your laws, more so than in all riches.
Your laws are my delight, my counsellors who uphold me.
Your Law is more precious to me than heaps of silver and gold.
How sweet are Your promises to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Your statutes are my heritage forever, they are the joy of my heart.
I gasp in ardent yearning for Your commandments that I love.
