32. Let it be far, O Lord,Met it be far from the heart of Thy
servant who confesseth unto Thee; let it be far from me to think
myself happy, be the joy what it may. For there is a joy which is not
granted to the "wicked, but to those who worship Thee thankfully,
whose joy Thou Thyself art. And the happy life is this, to
rejoice unto Thee, in Thee, and for Thee; this it is, and there
is no other? But those who think there is another follow after another
joy, and that not the true one. Their will, however, is not turned
away from some shadow of joy.
