[1]{To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.} The heavens declare the glory of ùGod; and the expanse sheweth the work of his hands. [2]Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. [3]There is no speech and there are no words, yet their voice is heard. [4]Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their language to the extremity of the world. In them hath he set a tent for the sun, [5]And he is as a bridegroom going forth from his chamber; he rejoiceth as a strong man to run the race. [6]His going forth is from the end of the heavens, and his circuit unto the ends of it; and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof. [7]The law of Jehovah is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of Jehovah is sure, making wise the simple; [8]The precepts of Jehovah are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of Jehovah is pure, enlightening the eyes; [9]The fear of Jehovah is clean, enduring for ever; the judgments of Jehovah are truth, they are righteous altogether: [10]They are more precious than gold, yea, than much fine gold; and sweeter than honey and the dropping of the honeycomb. [11]Moreover, by them is thy servant enlightened; in keeping them there is great reward. [12]Who understandeth [his] errors? Purify me from secret [faults]. [13]Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous [sins]; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be perfect, and I shall be innocent from great transgression. [14]Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O Jehovah, my rock, and my redeemer.
