Psalms 19

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1The heavensH8064 declareH5608 the gloryH3519 of GodH410;the skiesH7549 proclaimH5046 the workH4639 of His handsH3027.2DayH3117 after dayH3117 they pour forthH5042 speechH562;nightH3915 after nightH3915 they revealH2331 knowledgeH1847.3WithoutH369 speechH562 orH369 languageH1697,without a soundH6963H1097 to be heardH8085,14their voiceH69572 has gone outH3318 into allH3605 the earthH776,their wordsH4405 to the endsH7097 of the worldH8398.3
In the heavens He has pitchedH7760a tentH168 for the sunH8121.5Like a bridegroomH2860 emergingH3318 from his chamberH2646,like a championH1368 rejoicingH7797 to runH7323 his courseH734,6it risesH4161 at one endH7097 of the heavensH8064and runs its circuitH8622 toH5921 the otherH7098;nothingH369 is deprivedH5641 of its warmthH2535.
7The LawH8451 of the LORDH3068 is perfectH8549,revivingH7725 the soulH5315;the testimonyH5715 of the LORDH3068 is trustworthyH539,making wiseH2449 the simpleH6612.8The preceptsH6490 of the LORDH3068 are rightH3477,bringing joyH8055 to the heartH3820;the commandmentsH4687 of the LORDH3068 are radiantH1249,giving lightH215 to the eyesH5869.9The fearH3374 of the LORDH3068 is pureH2889,enduring foreverH5975H5703;the judgmentsH4941 of the LORDH3068 are trueH571,being altogetherH3162 righteousH6663.10They are more preciousH2530 than goldH2091,than muchH7227 pure goldH6337;they are sweeterH4966 than honeyH1706,than honeyH6688 from the combH5317.11By them indeedH1571 Your servantH5650 is warnedH2094;in keeping themH8104 is greatH7227 rewardH6118.
12WhoH4310 can discernH995 his own errorsH7691?Cleanse meH5352 from my hidden faultsH5641.13KeepH2820 Your servantH5650 alsoH1571 from willful sinsH2086;may they notH408 ruleH4910 over me.ThenH227 I will be blamelessH8552and cleansedH5352 of greatH7227 transgressionH6588.14May the wordsH561 of my mouthH6310and the meditationH1902 of my heartH3820beH1961 pleasingH7522 in Your sightH6440,O LORDH3068, my RockH6697 and my RedeemerH1350.
