THE BOOK OF
PSALMS
PSALM 19
David testifies: The heavens declare the glory of God—Also: the law of the Lord is perfect—And: The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
TO THE CHIEF MUSICIAN, A PSALM OF DAVID.
  1 The aheavens bdeclare the cglory of God; and the firmament sheweth his dhandywork.
  2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
  3 There is no speech nor alanguage, where their voice is not heard.
  4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their awords 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.
  7 The alaw of the Lord is bperfect, cconverting the soul: the dtestimony of the Lord is esure, making fwise the gsimple.
  8 The statutes of the Lord are right, arejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is bpure, cenlightening the eyes.
  9 The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever: the ajudgments of the Lord are btrue and righteous altogether.
  10 More to be adesired are they than bgold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
  11 Moreover by them is thy servant awarned: and in bkeeping of them there is great reward.
  12 Who can understand his errors? acleanse thou me from bsecret faults.
  13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous asins; let them not have bdominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great ctransgression.
  14 Let the words of my mouth, and the ameditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my bstrength, and my redeemer.
