'Esteem' in the Bible
“You shall not curse God, nor curse the ruler of your people [since he administers God’s law].
When all our enemies heard about it, and all the [Gentile] nations around us saw it, they lost their confidence; for they recognized that this work had been accomplished with the help of our God.
Therefore I esteem as right all Your precepts concerning everything;I hate every false way.
So find favor and high esteemIn the sight of God and man.
He was despised and rejected by men,A Man of sorrows and pain and acquainted with grief;And like One from whom men hide their facesHe was despised, and we did not appreciate His worth or esteem Him.
Do not treat us with contempt and condemn us, for Your own name’s sake;Do not disgrace Your glorious throne;Remember [with consideration] and do not break Your [solemn] covenant with us.
