Psalm 19

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

1  The aheavens declare the glory of God;

And the firmament sheweth his handywork.

2  Day unto day aauttereth speech,

And night unto night bsheweth knowledge.

3  There is no speech nor language,

||Where their voice is not heard.

4  c||Their dline 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  eWhich is as a bridegroom coming out of his fchamber,

And grejoiceth eas a strong man to run a race.

6  His going forth is from the end of the heaven,

And his hcircuit unto the ends of it:

And there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.

7  The ||law of the Lord is perfect, ||converting the soul:

The itestimony of the Lord is isure, making wise jthe simple.

8  The kstatutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart:

lThe commandment of the Lord is pure, menlightening the eyes.

9  The fear of the Lord is lclean, enduring for ever:

The judgments of the Lord are †true and righteous altogether.

10  More to be desired are they than ngold, yea, than much ofine gold:

pSweeter also than honey and †the qhoneycomb.

11  Moreover by them is thy servant rwarned:

And in keeping of them there is great reward.

12  sWho can understand his errors?

Cleanse thou me from tsecret faults.

13  uKeep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins;

Let them not xhave dominion over me:

Then shall I be upright,

And I shall be innocent from ||the great transgression.

14  Let the words of my mouth,

And the ymeditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight,

O Lord, †my strength, and my zredeemer.
