1
The heavensdeclare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth hishandywork .
2Day unto dayutterethspeech, and night unto nightshewethknowledge.3
There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard .
4
Their linea is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,5
Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.6
His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
7
The lawb of the LORD is perfect,converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure , making wise the simple.8
The statutes of the LORD are right,rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure,enlightening the eyes.9
The fear of the LORD is clean,enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are truec and righteousaltogether.10
More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold:sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb .d11
Moreover by them is thy servantwarned : and in keeping of them there is greatreward.12
Who can understand his errors?cleanse thou me from secret faults.
13
Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright , and I shall be innocent from the greatetransgression.14
Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength,f and my redeemer .
