Psalms 19
1 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.
To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. The heavens, are telling the glory of GOD, And, the work of his hands, the expanse is declaring;
2 Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.
Day, unto day, doth pour forth speech, and, night, unto night, doth breathe out knowledge.
3 Without speech or language, without a sound to be heard,
There is no speech, and there are no words, —Unheard is their voice!
4 their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens He has pitched a tent for the sun.
[Yet] through all the earth, hath gone forth their voice, —and, to the end of the world, their sayings, —For the sun, hath he set up a tent therein;
5 Like a bridegroom emerging from his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course,
And, he, is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, he rejoiceth as a hero to run a race:
6 it rises at one end of the heavens and runs its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.
From one end of the heavens, is his going forth, and, his circuit, to the other end thereof—and, nothing, is hid from his glowing heat.
7 The Law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the LORD is trustworthy, making wise the simple.
The, law of Yahweh, is complete, Bringing back the soul, The, testimony of Yahweh, is confirmed, Making wise the simple;
8 The precepts of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart; the commandments of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes.
The precepts of Yahweh, are right, Rejoicing the heart, The, commandment of Yahweh, is pure, Enlightening the eyes;
9 The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever; the judgments of the LORD are true, being altogether righteous.
The, reverence of Yahweh, is clean, Enduring evermore, —The, decisions of Yahweh, are faithful, They are righteous, altogether:
10 They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb.
More desirable, than gold, yea than much fine gold, Sweeter, also than honey, or than droppings from the comb.
11 By them indeed Your servant is warned; in keeping them is great reward.
Even thine own servant, taketh warning by them, In the keeping of them, great is the reward.
12 Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults.
Mistakes, who perceiveth? From things that are hidden, acquit me:
13 Keep Your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless and cleansed of great transgression.
Even from the presumptuous, keep back thy servant, May they not have dominion over me, Then, shall I be blameless, and shall be acquitted from great transgression:
14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.
The words of my mouth, and the soft utterance of my heart, shall come with acceptance, before thee, O Yahweh, my Rock and my Redeemer!
