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 linea 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.
7The lawb
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 truec
and righteous altogether. 10 More to be desired are
they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the
honeycombd.
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 greate
transgression. 14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation
of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strengthf,
and my redeemer.
