Psalms 19
1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows his handiwork.2 Day to day utters speech, And night to night shows knowledge.3 There is no speech nor language; Their voice is not heard.4 Their line has gone out through all the earth, And their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tabernacle for the sun,5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, And rejoices as a strong man to run his course.6 His going forth is from the end of the heavens, And his circuit to the ends of it; And there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
7 The law of Yahweh is perfect, restoring the soul: The testimony of Yahweh is sure, making wise the simple.8 The precepts of Yahweh are right, rejoicing the heart: The commandment of Yahweh is pure, enlightening the eyes.9 The fear of Yahweh is clean, enduring forever: The ordinances of Yahweh are true, [and] righteous altogether.10 More to be desired are they than gold, yes, than much fine gold; Sweeter also than honey and the droppings of the honeycomb.11 Moreover by them is your slave warned: In keeping them there is great reward.12 Who can discern [his] errors? Acquit me from hidden [faults].13 Keep back your slave also from presumptuous [sins]; Don't let them have dominion over me: Then I shall be upright, And I shall be innocent from great transgression.14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in your sight, O Yahweh, my rock, and my redeemer.
