Psalms 19:10

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.

Psalms 21:3

21:3 For you bring him ³  rich ⁴  blessings; ⁵ 

you place a golden crown on his head.

[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).

[21:3]  ³ tn Or “meet him [with].”

[21:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “good.”

[21:3]  ⁵ sn You bring him rich blessings. The following context indicates that God’s “blessings” include deliverance/protection, vindication, sustained life, and a long, stable reign (see also Pss 3:8; 24:5).
