The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. 2Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. 3There is no speech nor language,
where their voice is not heard. 4Their 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, 5Which
is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
and
rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race. 6His 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. 7The law of the LORD
is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD
is sure, making wise the simple. 8The statutes of the LORD
are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD
is pure, enlightening the eyes. 9The fear of the LORD
is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD
are true
and righteous altogether. 10More to be desired
are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. 11Moreover by them is thy servant warned:
and in keeping of them
there is great reward. 12Who can understand
his errors? cleanse thou me from secret
faults. 13Keep 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. 14Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
