or called fine gold my confidence,

25 if I have rejoiced because my wealth was abundant

or because my hand had found much,

24 If I have made gold my hope,

Or have said to the fine gold, Thou art my confidence;

25 If I rejoiced because my wealth was great,

And because mine hand had gotten much;

24 “Have I put my trust in money

or felt secure because of my gold?

25 Have I gloated about my wealth

and all that I own?

24 “If I have made gold my hope,

Or said to fine gold, ‘You are my confidence’;

25 If I have rejoiced because my wealth was great,

And because my hand had gained much;

24 “I have not put my trust in gold

or said to pure gold, ‘You are my security.’

25 I have not celebrated my great wealth

or the riches my hands had gained.

24 If I have made gold my hope,

And have said to the fine gold, Thou art my confidence;

25 If I have rejoiced because my wealth was great,

And because my hand had gotten much;

24 If I have made gold my hope, or said to the fine gold, My confidence! 25 If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gotten much;

24 “If I put my confidence in gold

25 If I enjoyed being very rich 

because my hand had found great ⸤wealth⸥.… 

24 If I placed my confidence in gold

or called fine gold my trust,

25 if I have rejoiced because my wealth is great

or because my own hand has acquired so much,

or called fine gold my confidence;

25 if I have rejoiced because my wealth was great,

or because my hand had gotten much;

24 “If I have made gold my trust,

or I have called fine gold my security,

25 if I have rejoiced because my wealth was great

or because my hand found a fortune,

24 “Suppose I’ve put my trust in gold.

I’ve said to pure gold, ‘You make me feel secure.’

25 And I’m happy because I’m so wealthy.

I’m glad because my hands have earned so much.

24 “If I have put my confidence in gold,

And called fine gold my trust,

25 If I have gloated because my wealth was great,

And because my hand had secured so much;
