Psalm 19

KJV

NLT

1 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
1 The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship.
2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
2 Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known.
3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard.
4 Their line 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,
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 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
5 It bursts forth like a radiant bridegroom after his wedding. It rejoices like a great athlete eager to run the 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.
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 law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
7 The instructions of the LORD are perfect, reviving the soul. The decrees of the LORD are trustworthy, 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.
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 The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
9 Reverence for the LORD is pure, lasting forever. The laws of the LORD are true; each one is fair.
10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
10 They are more desirable than gold, even the finest gold. They are sweeter than honey, even honey dripping from the comb.
11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.
11 They are a warning to your servant, a great reward for those who obey them.
12 Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.
12 How can I know all the sins lurking in my heart? Cleanse me from these hidden 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 great transgression.
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 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.
