φόβος Κυρίου ὑπὲρ πᾶν ὑπερέβαλεν, ὁ κρατῶν αὐτοῦ τίνι ὁμοιωθήσεται; [
King James Version (KJV)

But the love of the Lord passeth all things for illumination: he that holdeth it, whereto shall he be likened?

The fear of the Lord surpasses everything else in the light it gives; whoever holds on to it — what can compare to him?
