1
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament showeth the work of his hands.
2
Day to day uttereth speech, and night to night showeth knowledge.
3
[There is] no speech nor language, [where] their voice is not heard.
4
Their line hath 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 to the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from his heat.
7
The law 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] true [and] righteous altogether.
10
More to be desired [are they] than gold, yes, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honey-comb.
11
Moreover, by them is thy servant warned: [and] in keeping of them [there is] great reward.
