BSB PSA Chapter 19

The Heavens Declare the Glory of God

19 

19 For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.

2 Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.

3 Without speech or language, without a sound to be heard,[fn]

4 their voice[fn] has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.[fn] In [the heavens] He has pitched a tent for the sun.

5 Like a bridegroom emerging from his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course,

6 it rises at one end of the heavens and runs its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.

7 The Law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the LORD is trustworthy, making wise the simple.

8 The precepts of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart; the commandments of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes.

9 The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever the judgments of the LORD are true, being altogether righteous.

10 They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb.

11 By them indeed Your servant is warned; in keeping them [is] great reward.

12 Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults.

13 Keep Your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless and cleansed of great transgression.

14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.
