Psalms 19 : 1 - 14
Chapter 19
1 | The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork.
|
2 | Day unto day utters speech, And night unto night reveals knowledge.
|
3 | There is no speech nor language Where 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 like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, And rejoices like a strong man to run its race.
|
6 | Its rising is from one end of heaven, And its circuit to the other end; And there is nothing hidden from its heat.
|
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 forever; 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 Your servant is warned, And in keeping them there is great reward.
|
12 | Who can understand his errors? Cleanse me from secret faults.
|
13 | Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; Let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, And I shall be innocent of great transgression.
|
14 | Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my strength and my Redeemer.
