Mazmur 119:72
Konteks119:72 The law you have revealed is more important to me
than thousands of pieces of gold and silver. 1
Mazmur 119:127
Konteks119:127 For this reason 2 I love your commands
more than gold, even purest gold.
Mazmur 119:162
Konteks119:162 I rejoice in your instructions,
like one who finds much plunder. 3
[119:72] 1 tn Heb “better to me [is] the law of your mouth than thousands of gold and silver.”
[119:127] 2 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.
[119:162] 3 tn Heb “like one who finds great plunder.” See Judg 5:30. The image is that of a victorious warrior who finds a large amount of plunder on the field of battle.
