Better is the little of the righteous [who seek the will of God]
Than the abundance (riches) of many wicked (godless).

Because Your lovingkindness is better than life,
My lips shall praise You.

And it will please the Lord better than an ox
Or a young bull with horns and hoofs.

For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand [anywhere else];
I would rather stand [as a doorkeeper] at the threshold of the house of my God
Than to live [at ease] in the tents of wickedness.

It is better to take refuge in the Lord
Than to trust in man.

It is better to take refuge in the Lord
Than to trust in princes.

The law from Your mouth is better to me
Than thousands of gold and silver pieces.

I have better understanding and deeper insight than all my teachers [because of Your word],
For Your testimonies are my meditation.
