(18-1) <Unto the end. A Psalm Chapter for David.> (18-2) The heavens shew forth the glory of God, and the firmament declareth the work of his hands.
2
(18-3) Day to day uttereth speech, and night to night sheweth knowledge.
3
(18-4) There are no speeches nor languages, where their voices are not heard.
4
(18-5) Their sound hath gone forth into all the earth: and their words unto the ends of the world.
5
(18-6) He hath set his tabernacle in the sun: and he as a bridegroom coming out of his bridechamber, Hath rejoiced as a giant to run the way:
6
(18-7) His going out is from the end of heaven, And his circuit even to the end thereof: and there is no one that can hide himself from his heat.
7
(18-8) The law of the Lord is unspotted, converting souls: the testimony of the Lord is faithful, giving wisdom to little ones.
8
(18-9) The justices of the Lord are right, rejoicing hearts: the commandment of the Lord is lightsome, enlightening the eyes.

(18-10) The fear of the Lord is holy, enduring for ever and ever: the judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves.
10
(18-11) More to be desired than gold and many precious stones: and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.
11
(18-12) For thy servant keepeth them, and in keeping them there is a great reward.

Psalms 19:1-11 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.
