- 3. No language, no wordes, no voyce of theirs is hearde:
- 4. yet their sounde goeth into all landes, and their wordes into the endes of the worlde. In them he hath set a tabernacle for the sunne:
- 5. which commeth foorth as a bridegrome out of his chamber, and reioyceth as a giaunt to runne his course.
- 6. His settyng foorth is from the vtmost part of heauen, and his circuite vnto the vtmost part therof: and there is nothing hyd from his heat.
- 7. The lawe of God is perfect, conuerting the soule: the testimonie of God is sure, and geueth wisdome vnto the simple.
- 8. The statutes of God are right, and reioyce the heart: the commaundement of God is pure, and geueth light vnto the eyes.
- 9. The feare of God is sincere, & endureth for euer: the iudgementes of God are trueth, they be iust in all poyntes.
- 10. They are more to be desired then golde, yea then much fine golde: they are also sweeter then hony and the hony combe.

- 12. Who can knowe his owne errours? Oh cleanse thou me from those that I am not priuie of.
- 13. Kepe thy seruaunt also from presumptuous [sinnes] let them not raigne ouer me: so I shall be perfect & voyde from all haynous offence.
- 14. Let the wordes of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight O God: my strength and my redeemer.
