Psalms 19
1 To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the expanse sheweth the work of his hands.
To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. The heauens declare the glory of God, and the firmament sheweth ye worke of his hands.
2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
Day vnto day vttereth the same, and night vnto night teacheth knowledge.
3 There is no speech and there are no words, yet their voice is heard.
There is no speach nor language, where their voyce is not heard.
4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their language to the extremity of the world. In them hath he set a tent for the sun,
Their line is gone forth through all the earth, and their words into the endes of the world: in them hath he set a tabernacle for the sunne.
5 And he is as a bridegroom going forth from his chamber; he rejoiceth as a strong man to run the race.
Which commeth forth as a bridegrome out of his chamber, and reioyceth like a mightie man to runne his race.
6 His going forth is from the end of the heavens, and his circuit unto the ends of it; and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
His going out is from the ende of the heauen, and his compasse is vnto the endes of ye same, and none is hid from the heate thereof.
7 The law of Jehovah is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of Jehovah is sure, making wise the simple;
The Lawe of the Lord is perfite, conuerting the soule: the testimonie of the Lord is sure, and giueth wisedome vnto the simple.
8 The precepts of Jehovah are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of Jehovah is pure, enlightening the eyes;
The statutes of the Lord are right and reioyce the heart: the commandement of the Lord is pure, and giueth light vnto the eyes.
9 The fear of Jehovah is clean, enduring for ever; the judgments of Jehovah are truth, they are righteous altogether:
The feare of the Lord is cleane, and indureth for euer: the iudgements of the Lord are trueth: they are righteous altogether,
10 They are more precious than gold, yea, than much fine gold; and sweeter than honey and the dropping of the honeycomb.
And more to be desired then golde, yea, then much fine golde: sweeter also then honie and the honie combe.
11 Moreover, by them is thy servant enlightened; in keeping them there is great reward.
Moreouer by them is thy seruant made circumspect, and in keeping of them there is great reward.
12 Who understandeth [his] errors? Purify me from secret [faults].
Who can vnderstand his faultes? clense me from secret fautes.
13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous [sins]; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be perfect, and I shall be innocent from great transgression.
Keepe thy seruant also from presumptuous sinnes: let them not reigne ouer me: so shall I be vpright, and made cleane from much wickednes.
14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O Jehovah, my rock, and my redeemer.
Let the wordes of my mouth, and the meditation of mine heart be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.
