Psalms 105:37

105:37 He brought his people ¹  out enriched ²  with silver and gold;

none of his tribes stumbled.

Psalms 115:4

115:4 Their ³  idols are made of silver and gold –

they are man-made. ⁴ 

Psalms 119:127

119:127 For this reason ⁵  I love your commands

more than gold, even purest gold.

[105:37]  ¹ tn Heb “them”; the referent (the Lord’s people) has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[105:37]  ² tn The word “enriched” is supplied in the translation for clarification and for stylistic reasons.

[115:4]  ³ tn The referent of the pronominal suffix is “the nations” (v. 2).

[115:4]  ⁴ tn Heb “the work of the hands of man.”

[119:127]  ⁵ tn “For this reason” connects logically with the statement made in v. 126. Because the judgment the psalmist fears (see vv. 119-120) is imminent, he remains loyal to God’s law.
