Psalm 19
To the
chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
1 The
heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament
sheweth his handywork.
2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night
sheweth knowledge.
3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice
is not heard.
4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and
their words to the end of the world. In them hath he
set a tabernacle for the sun,
5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his
chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a
race.
6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and
his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is
nothing hid from the heat thereof.
7 The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the
soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise
the simple.
8 The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the
heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure,
enlightening the eyes.
9 The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever:
the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous
altogether.
10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than
much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the
honeycomb.
11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in
keeping of them there is great reward.
12 Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me
from secret faults.
13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous
sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall
I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great
transgression.
14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of
my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my
strength, and my redeemer.
