if I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much;
If I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, And because my hand had gotten much;
If I gloated and rejoiced because my wealth was great, And because my [powerful] hand [alone] had obtained so much,
If I rejoiced because my wealth was great and because my [powerful] hand [alone] had gotten much,
If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much;
if I have rejoiced because my wealth is great or because my own hand has acquired so much,
if I have rejoiced because my wealth is great or because my own hand has acquired so much,
if I’ve rejoiced because my wealth was great, when my hand found plenty;
if I took joy in my great wealth, in my having acquired so much;
or taken pride in owning many possessions. *
If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gotten much;
If I have rejoiced over my great riches, and because my hand had gotten much.
I have been wealthy, but that didn’t make me proud. I earned a lot of money, but that is not what made me happy.
When I was very rich, I was not proud about it. I did not think that I had worked hard to deserve it.
if I rejoiced because I was so rich and because my hand had obtained so much,
if I have rejoiced because my wealth was abundant or because my hand had found much,
if I have rejoiced because my wealth was abundant or because my hand had found much,
I have not ·celebrated [exulted in] my great wealth or the ·riches [substance] my hands had gained.
If I rejoiced because my substance was great, or because mine hand had gotten much,
If I enjoyed being very rich because my hand had found great ⌞wealth⌟….
or taken pride in my wealth.
if I have rejoiced because my wealth is great or because my own hand has acquired so much,
I have not celebrated my great wealth. I have not celebrated that my hands had gained riches.
if I’ve found joy in great wealth that I own, if I’ve earned a lot with my own hands,
if I rejoiced because my wealth was being multiplied, and because my hand had gotten much;
If I rejoice because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much;
if I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because mine hand had gotten much;
If I have been glad because my wealth was great, And because my hand had found so much,
if I have rejoiced because my wealth was great or because my hand found a fortune,
if my happiness depends on wealth,
“Did I set my heart on making big money or worship at the bank? Did I boast about my wealth, show off because I was well-off? Was I ever so awed by the sun’s brilliance and moved by the moon’s beauty That I let myself become seduced by them and worshiped them on the sly? If so, I would deserve the worst of punishments, for I would be betraying God himself.
if I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gained much;
If I enjoyed being very rich because my hand had found great wealth. . . .
Or had I rejoiced that my wealth was great, or that my hand had acquired abundance—
If I have gloated because my wealth was great, And because my hand had obtained so much;
If I have gloated because my wealth was great, And because my hand had secured so much;
Have I rejoiced in my great wealth and the abundance of riches in my possession?
I have not celebrated my great wealth or the riches my hands had gained.
if I have rejoiced because of the extent of my wealth, or because of the great wealth my hand had gained,
And I’m happy because I’m so wealthy. I’m glad because my hands have earned so much.
if I have rejoiced over my great wealth, the fortune my hands had gained,
if I have rejoiced over my great wealth, the fortune my hands had gained,
If I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, And because my hand had gained much;
if I have had pride because of my many riches and have received much by my hand,
Have I gloated about my wealth and all that I own?
if I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, or because my hand had acquired much;
if I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, or because my hand had acquired much;
if I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, or because my hand had gotten much;
if I have rejoiced because my wealth was great or because my hand had gotten much,
If I rejoice because my wealth was rav (great), and because mine yad had gotten much,
“if I rejoiced because my substance was great, or because my hand had gotten much,
if I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, or because my hand had gotten much;
if I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, or because my hand had gotten much;
if I rejoiced because of my great wealth or because of the abundance my hand acquired,
If I have exulted in my immense wealth (for I had accumulated so much),
If I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gotten much;
if I was glad on my many riches, and for mine hand found full many things;
If I rejoice because great [is] my wealth, And because abundance hath my hand found,
