19:1  To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.
19:2  Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge.
19:3  There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard.
19:4  Their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun,
19:5  which comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber, and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy.
19:6  Its rising is from the end of the heavens, and its circuit to the end of them, and there is nothing hidden from its heat.
19:7  The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple;
19:8  the precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes;
19:9  the fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever; the rules of the Lord are true, and righteous altogether.
19:10  More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb.
19:11  Moreover, by them is your servant warned; in keeping them there is great reward.
19:12  Who can discern his errors? Declare me innocent from hidden faults.
19:13  Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me! Then I shall be blameless, and innocent of great transgression.
19:14  Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
