- Kapitel 19 -

The heavens declare the glory of God

1
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.
2
Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.
3
Without speech or language, without a sound to be heard,(a)
4
their voice (b) has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.(c) In the heavens He has pitched a tent for the sun.
5
Like a bridegroom emerging from his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course,
6
it rises at one end of the heavens and runs its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.
7
The Law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the LORD is trustworthy, 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.
9
The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever; the judgments of the LORD are true, being altogether righteous.
10
They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb.
11
By them indeed Your servant is warned; in keeping them is great reward.
12
Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults.
13
Keep Your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless and cleansed of 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 heavens declare the glory of God

1
The heavens declare the glory of God. The expanse shows his handiwork.
2
Day after day they pour out speech, and night after night they display knowledge.
3
There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard.
4
Their voice has gone out through all the earth, their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun,
5
which is as a bridegroom coming out of his room, like a strong man rejoicing to run his course.
6
His going out is from the end of the heavens, his circuit to its ends. There is nothing hidden from its heat.
7
The LORD’s law is perfect, restoring the soul. The LORD’s covenant is sure, making wise the simple.
8
The LORD’s precepts are right, rejoicing the heart. The LORD’s commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9
The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever. The LORD’s ordinances are true, and righteous altogether.
10
They are more to be desired than gold, yes, than much fine gold, sweeter also than honey and the extract of the honeycomb.
11
Moreover your servant is warned by them. In keeping them there is great reward.
12
Who can discern his errors? Forgive me from hidden errors.
13
Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins. Let them not have dominion over me. Then I will be upright. I will be blameless and innocent of great transgression.
14
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, LORD, my rock, and my redeemer.
