"desirable beyond gold and many precious stones, and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb. "

“He made darkness his hiding-place, his pavilion round about him, Darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies. ”
“He made darkness his hiding place, his pavilion around him, darkness of waters, thick clouds of the skies.”
“He shrouded himself in darkness, in thick rain clouds.”
“More to be desired than gold and many precious stones: and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.”
“He made the dark his secret place; his tent round him was the dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.”

The law of the Lord is immaculate, converting souls. The testimony of the Lord is faithful, providing wisdom to little ones.
The justice of the Lord is right, rejoicing hearts. The precepts of the Lord are brilliant, enlightening the eyes.
The fear of the Lord is holy, enduring for all generations. The judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves:
desirable beyond gold and many precious stones, and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.
For, indeed, your servant keeps them, and in keeping them, there are many rewards.
Who can understand transgression? From my hidden faults, cleanse me, O Lord,
and from those of others, spare your servant. If they will have no dominion over me, then I will be immaculate, and I will be cleansed from the greatest transgression.
