'Treasured' in the Bible

because you are a holy people to the LORD your God. The LORD your God chose you to be his people, his treasured possession from all the nations on the face of the earth."

I haven't wandered away from the commands that he has spoken; I've treasured what he has said more than my own meals."

from men, LORD, by your hand from men who belong to this world, whose reward is only in this life. But as for your treasured ones, may their stomachs be full, may their children have an abundance, and may they leave wealth to their offspring.

I'll turn my face away from them so that they'll defile my treasured place. Robbers will enter and profane it!

"They'll be mine," says the LORD of the Heavenly Armies, "in the day when I prepare my treasured possession. I'll spare them, just as a man spares his own son who serves him.
