Psalms 19
The Law of Yahweh Is Perfect
1 The (C1)heavens are telling of the glory of God;
And the (C2)expanse is declaring the work of His hands.
2 Day to (C1)day pours forth (F1)speech,
And (C2)night to night reveals knowledge.
3 There is no (F1)speech, nor are there words;
Their voice is not heard.
4 Their (F1)(C1)line has gone out through all the earth,
And their utterances to the end of the world.
In them He has (C2)placed a tent for the sun,
5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber;
It rejoices as a strong man to run his course.
6 Its (C1)rising is from (F1)one end of the heavens,
And its circuit to the (F2)other end of them;
And there is nothing hidden from its heat.
7 (C1)The law of Yahweh is (F1)(C2)perfect, (C3)restoring the soul;
The testimony of Yahweh is (C4)sure, making (C5)wise the simple.
8 The precepts of Yahweh are (C1)right, (C2)rejoicing the heart;
The commandment of Yahweh is (C3)pure, (C4)enlightening the eyes.
9 The fear of Yahweh is clean, enduring forever;
The judgments of Yahweh are (C1)true; they are (C2)righteous altogether.
10 They are more desirable than (C1)gold, even more than much fine gold;
(C2)Sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb.
11 Moreover, by them (C1)Your slave is warned;
In keeping them there is great (C2)reward.
12 Who can (C1)discern his errors? (C2)Acquit me of (C3)hidden faults.
13 Also keep back Your slave (C1)from presumptuous sins;
Let them not (C2)rule over me;
Then I will be (F1)(C3)blameless,
And I shall be acquitted of (C4)great transgression.
14 Let the (F1)words of my mouth and (C1)the meditation of my heart
Be acceptable in Your sight,
O Yahweh, (C2)my rock and my (C3)Redeemer.
