Psalm 19 Flashcards
0
For the choirmaster. A psalm of David.
1
The heavens declare the glory of God;
the sky above proclaims his handiwork.
2
Day after day they pours out speech,
and night to night they reveals knowledge.
3
There is no speech, nor are there words,
whose voice is not heard.
4
Their voice goes out through all the earth,
and their words to the end of the world.
In them he has set a tent for the sun,
5
which comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber. and like a strongman, runs its course with joy.
6
Its rising is from the end of the heavens,
and its circuit to the end of them,
and there is nothing hidden from its heat.
7
The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul;
the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
8
The precepts 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 forever;
the rules of the Lord are true, and righteous altogether.
10
More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold;
sweeter also than honey and drippings of a honeycomb.
11
Moreover by them your servant is warned; in keeping them there is great reward.
12
Who can discern his errors?
Declare me innocent from hidden faults.
13
Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins;
let them not have dominion over me!
Then I shall be blameless, and innocent of great transgression.
14
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
