Psalms 19:10-11

19:10 They are of greater value ¹  than gold,

than even a great amount of pure gold;

they bring greater delight ²  than honey,

than even the sweetest honey from a honeycomb.

19:11 Yes, your servant finds moral guidance there; ³ 

those who obey them receive a rich reward. ⁴ 

[19:10]  ¹ tn Heb “more desirable.”

[19:10]  ² tn Heb “are sweeter.” God’s law is “sweet’ in the sense that, when obeyed, it brings a great reward (see v. 11b).

[19:11]  ³ tn Heb “moreover your servant is warned by them.”

[19:11]  ⁴ tn Heb “in the keeping of them [there is] a great reward.”
