Psalms 19:12-14

12 Who can 1discern his errors? 2Acquit me of 3hidden faults.
13 Also keep back Your servant 4from presumptuous sins; Let them not 5rule over me; Then I will be 6blameless, And I shall be acquitted of 7great transgression.
14 Let the words of my mouth and 8the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, 9my rock and my 10Redeemer.

Psalms 19:12-14 Meaning and Commentary

To the chief Musician, a Psalm of David. This psalm was penned by David, and inscribed to the chief musician, as others, to be used in public service, and was designed for Gospel times, as the subject of it shows; which is first, not an account of the light of nature, and then of the law of Moses, but of the Gospel of Christ; and especially as ministered in the times of the apostles, as a citation out of it in Romans 10:18, makes clear.
