3Your people who live in this land are wonderful; I delight to be with them.
4Those who choose to worship other gods will have many things that cause them to be sad. I will not join them when they make sacrifices to their gods; I will not even join them when they speak MTY the names of their gods.
5Yahweh, you are the one whom I have chosen, and you give me great blessings. You protect me and control what happens to me.
6Yahweh has given me a wonderful place in which to live; I am delighted with all the things that he has given me MET.
