  • 1. {To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.}<br>
    The heavens declare the glory of �God; and the expanse sheweth the work of his hands.
  • 2. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
  • 3. There is no speech and there are no words, yet their voice is 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,
  • 5. And he is as a bridegroom going forth from his chamber; he rejoiceth as a strong man to run the 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.
  • 7. The law of Jehovah is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of Jehovah is sure, making wise the simple;
  • 8. The precepts of Jehovah are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of Jehovah is pure, enlightening the eyes;
  • 9. The fear of Jehovah is clean, enduring for ever; the judgments of Jehovah are truth, 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.
  • 11. Moreover, by them is thy servant enlightened; in keeping them there is great reward.
  • 12. Who understandeth [his] errors? Purify me from secret [faults].
  • 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.
  • 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.
