In the way of your testimonies I delight as much as in all riches.
“The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up. Then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.
Your words were found, and I ate them, and your words became to me a joy and the delight of my heart, for I am called by your name, O Lord, God of hosts.
I rejoice at your word like one who finds great spoil.
Praise the Lord! Blessed is the man who fears the Lord, who greatly delights in his commandments!
the fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; the rules of the Lord are true, and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb.
I have not departed from the commandment of his lips; I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my portion of food.
Therefore I love your commandments above gold, above fine gold.
Your testimonies are my heritage forever, for they are the joy of my heart.
The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver pieces.
Let your mercy come to me, that I may live; for your law is my delight.
for I find my delight in your commandments, which I love.
So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls. And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. And all who believed were together and had all things in common. And they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need.
