Psalm 119:72

Modern English Version

The law of Your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver pieces.

See the chapter Copy

Your testimonies have I taken as my heritage forever, for they are the rejoicing of my heart.

Therefore I love Your commandments more than gold, more than fine gold.

I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies, as much as in all riches.

I rejoice at Your word like one who finds great spoil.

More to be desired are they than gold, yes, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.

Moreover by them is Your servant warned, and in keeping them there is great reward.

How much better it is to get wisdom than gold! And to get understanding than silver!

Blessed is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gets understanding,

My fruit is better than gold, even fine gold, and my yield than choice silver.

Wisdom is good as an inheritance, an advantage to those who see the sun.
