Psalm 19

1 For the one directing. A Psalm of David. <span class=|reftext|><a href=|#|><b>1</b></a> The heavens are recounting the glory of God, and the firmament is declaring the work of and His hands.

2 Day after day it pours forth speech, and night after night it shows forth knowledge.

3 Without speech and without words, their voice not being heard,

4 their voice has gone out into all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. He has placed a tent in them for the sun,

5 and it [is] like a bridegroom going forth from his chamber, rejoicing like a strong man to run the path.

6 From one end of the heavens [is] his going forth, and his circuit [is] upon their ends, and there is nothing being hidden from his heat.

7 The law of YHWH [is] perfect, refreshing the soul; the testimony of YHWH [is] sure, making wise the simple.

8 The statutes of YHWH [are] straight, making glad the heart; the commandment of YHWH [is] pure, bringing light to the eyes.

9 The fear of YHWH is pure, standing forever; the judgments of YHWH [are] true, being righteous altogether,

10 being desired above gold, and much above pure gold, and sweeter than honey and flowing honey from the honeycomb.

11 Indeed, Your servant is warned by them; in keeping them [is] great reward.

12 Who can discern [his] errors? From the hidden cleanse me.

13 Also, hold back Your servant from proud [things]; may they not rule over me. Then I shall be complete, and cleansed of great transgression.

14 The words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart, let them be for favor before Your face, O YHWH, my Rock and my Redeemer.
