Psalm 19

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 For the leader. A psalm of David: The heavens declare the glory of God, the dome of the sky speaks the work of his hands.

2 Every day it utters speech, every night it reveals knowledge.

3 Without speech, without a word, without their voices being heard,

4 their line goes out through all the earth and their words to the end of the world. In them he places a tent for the sun,

5 which comes out like a bridegroom from the bridal chamber, with delight like an athlete to run his race.

6 It rises at one side of the sky, circles around to the other side, and nothing escapes its heat.

7 The Torah of ADONAI is perfect, restoring the inner person. The instruction of ADONAI is sure, making wise the thoughtless.

8 The precepts of ADONAI are right, rejoicing the heart. The mitzvah of ADONAI is pure, enlightening the eyes.

9 The fear of ADONAI is clean, enduring forever. The rulings of ADONAI are true, they are righteous altogether,

10 more desirable than gold, than much fine gold, also sweeter than honey or drippings from the honeycomb.

11 Through them your servant is warned; in obeying them there is great reward.

12 Who can discern unintentional sins? Cleanse me from hidden faults.

13 Also keep your servant from presumptuous sins, so that they won't control me. Then I will be blameless and free of great offense.

14 May the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart be acceptable in your presence, ADONAI, my Rock and Redeemer.

New Living Translation NLT

1 The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship.

2 Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known.

3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard.

4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world. God has made a home in the heavens for the sun.

5 It bursts forth like a radiant bridegroom after his wedding. It rejoices like a great athlete eager to run the race.

6 The sun rises at one end of the heavens and follows its course to the other end. Nothing can hide from its heat.

7 The instructions of the LORD are perfect, reviving the soul. The decrees of the LORD are trustworthy, making wise the simple.

8 The commandments of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart. The commands of the LORD are clear, giving insight for living.

9 Reverence for the LORD is pure, lasting forever. The laws of the LORD are true; each one is fair.

10 They are more desirable than gold, even the finest gold. They are sweeter than honey, even honey dripping from the comb.

11 They are a warning to your servant, a great reward for those who obey them.

12 How can I know all the sins lurking in my heart? Cleanse me from these hidden faults.

13 Keep your servant from deliberate sins! Don’t let them control me. Then I will be free of guilt and innocent of great sin.

14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.
