24 “I have not put my trust in gold
    or said to pure gold, ‘You are my security.’
25 I have not ·celebrated [exulted in] my great wealth

    nor admired the moon moving in glory
27 so that my heart was ·pulled away from God [L enticed in secret].
    My hand has never ·offered the sun and moon a kiss of worship [L passed a kiss from my mouth].
28 If I had, these also would have been ·sins to be punished [a criminal offense; L a guilty thing before the judges],
    because I would have ·been unfaithful to [deceived; defrauded] God [L above].
