Psalms 19

To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.

1The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.

2Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.

3<add>There is</add> no speech nor language, <add>where</add> 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 <add>is</add> as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, <add>and</add> rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.

6His going forth <add>is</add> 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 <add>is</add> perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD <add>is</add> sure, making wise the simple.

8The statutes of the LORD <add>are</add> right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD <add>is</add> pure, enlightening the eyes.

9The fear of the LORD <add>is</add> clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD <add>are</add> true <add>and</add> righteous altogether.

10More to be desired <add>are they</add> than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.

11Moreover by them is thy servant warned: <add>and</add> in keeping of them <add>there is</add> great reward.

12Who can understand <add>his</add> errors? cleanse thou me from secret <add>faults</add>.

13Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous <add>sins;</add> 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.
