Psalms 19
The Works and the Word of God.
For the choir director. A Psalm of David.
1 The aheavens are telling of the glory of God;And their bexpanse is declaring the work of His hands.
2Day to cday pours forth speech,
And dnight to night reveals knowledge.
3There is no speech, nor are there words;
Their voice is not heard.
4Their ▼
▼ Another reading is sound
,
fline has gone out through all the earth,And their utterances to the end of the world.
In them He has gplaced a tent for the sun,
5Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber;
It rejoices as a strong man to run his course.
6Its hrising is from ▼
▼ Lit the
one end of the heavens,And its circuit to the ▼
▼ Lit the ends
other end of them;And there is nothing hidden from its heat.
7 kThe law of the Lord is ▼
▼ I.e. blameless
,
mperfect, nrestoring the soul;The testimony of the Lord is osure, making pwise the simple.
8The precepts of the Lord are qright, rrejoicing the heart;
The commandment of the Lord is spure, tenlightening the eyes.
9The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever;
The judgments of the Lord are utrue; they are vrighteous altogether.
10They are more desirable than wgold, yes, than much fine gold;
xSweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb.
11Moreover, by them yYour servant is warned;
In keeping them there is great zreward.
12Who can aadiscern his errors? abAcquit me of achidden faults.
13Also keep back Your servant adfrom presumptuous sins;
Let them not aerule over me;
Then I will be ▼
▼ Lit complete
,
agblameless,And I shall be acquitted of ahgreat transgression.
14Let the words of my mouth and aithe meditation of my heart
Be acceptable in Your sight,
O Lord, ajmy rock and my akRedeemer.
