詩篇 19

1 大衛的詩，交與伶長。 諸天述說上帝的榮耀； 穹蒼傳揚他的手段。

For the end, a Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament proclaims the work of his hands.

2 這日到那日發出言語； 這夜到那夜傳出知識。

Day to day utters speech, and night to night proclaims knowledge.

3 無言無語， 也無聲音可聽。

There are no speeches or words, in which their voices are not heard.

4 它的量帶通遍天下， 它的言語傳到地極。 上帝在其間為太陽安設帳幕；

Their voice is gone out into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.

5 太陽如同新郎出洞房， 又如勇士歡然奔路。

In the sun he has set his tabernacle; and he comes forth as a bridegroom out of his chamber: he will exult as a giant to run his course.

6 它從天這邊出來，繞到天那邊， 沒有一物被隱藏不得它的熱氣。

His going forth is from the extremity of heaven, and his circuit to the [other] end of heaven: and no one shall be hidden from his heat.

7 耶和華的律法全備，能甦醒人心； 耶和華的法度確定，能使愚人有智慧。

The law of the Lord is perfect, converting souls: the testimony of the Lord is faithful, instructing babes.

8 耶和華的訓詞正直，能快活人的心； 耶和華的命令清潔，能明亮人的眼目。

The ordinances of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is bright, enlightening the eyes.

9 耶和華的道理潔淨，存到永遠； 耶和華的典章真實，全然公義－

The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring for ever and ever: the judgments of the Lord are true, [and] justified altogether.

10 都比金子可羨慕，且比極多的精金可羨慕； 比蜜甘甜，且比蜂房下滴的蜜甘甜。

To be desired more than gold, and much precious stone: sweeter also than honey and the honey-comb.

11 況且你的僕人因此受警戒， 守着這些便有大賞。

For thy servant keeps to them: in the keeping of them [there is] great reward.

12 誰能知道自己的錯失呢？ 願你赦免我隱而未現的過錯。

Who will understand [his] transgressions? purge thou me from my secret [sins].

13 求你攔阻僕人不犯任意妄為的罪， 不容這罪轄制我， 我便完全，免犯大罪。

And spare thy servant [the attack] of strangers: if they do not gain the dominion over me, then shall I be blameless, and I shall be clear from great sin.

14 耶和華－我的磐石，我的救贖主啊， 願我口中的言語、心裏的意念在你面前蒙悅納。

So shall the sayings of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be pleasing continually before thee, O Lord my helper, and my redeemer.
