1 | The
heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. |
2 | Day unto day uttereth
speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. |
3 | There is no speech nor language, where their voice is
not heard. |
4 |
Their 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,
Rom 10:18
|
5 | Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and
rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race. |
6 | His 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. |
7 | The law of the
LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making
wise the simple. |
8 | The
statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the
LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes. |
9 | The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments
of the LORD are true and righteous altogether. |
10 | More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than
much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. |
11 | Moreover by them is thy servant
warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward. |
12 | Who can understand his errors? cleanse
thou me from secret faults. |
13
| Keep 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. |
14 |
Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy
sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. |
