For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.
[1] The heavens declare the glory of God.The expanse shows his handiwork.
[2] Day after day they pour out speech,
and night after night they display knowledge.
[3] There is no speech nor language
where their voice is not heard.
[4] Their voice has gone out through all the earth,
their words to the end of the world.
In them he has set a tent for the sun,
[5] which is as a bridegroom coming out of his room,
like a strong man rejoicing to run his course.
[6] His going out is from the end of the heavens,
his circuit to its ends.
There is nothing hidden from its heat. [7] Yahweh’s law is perfect, restoring the soul.
Yahweh’s covenant is sure, making wise the simple.
[8] Yahweh’s precepts are right, rejoicing the heart.
Yahweh’s commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes.
[9] The fear of Yahweh is clean, enduring forever.
Yahweh’s ordinances are true, and righteous altogether.
[10] They are more to be desired than gold, yes, than much fine gold,
sweeter also than honey and the extract of the honeycomb.
[11] Moreover your servant is warned by them.
In keeping them there is great reward.
[12] Who can discern his errors?
Forgive me from hidden errors. [13] Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins.
Let them not have dominion over me.
Then I will be upright.
I will 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,
Yahweh, my rock, and my redeemer.
King James Version
To the chief Musician, H5329 A Psalm H4210 of David. H1732
[1] The heavens H8064 declare H5608 the glory H3519 of God; H410And the firmament H7549 sheweth his H5046 handywork. H4639 H3027
[2] Day H3117 unto day H3117 uttereth H5042 speech, H562
And night H3915 unto night H3915 sheweth H2331 knowledge. H1847 [3] There is no speech H562 nor language, H1697
Where their voice H6963 is not heard. H8085§
[4] Their line H6957§ is gone out H3318 through all the earth, H776
And their words H4405 to the end H7097 of the world. H8398
In them hath he set H7760 a tabernacle H168 for the sun, H8121
[5] Which is as a bridegroom H2860 coming out H3318 of his chamber, H2646 and rejoiceth H7797 as a strong man H1368 to run H7323 a race. H734
[6] His going forth H4161 is from the end H7097 of the heaven, H8064 and his circuit H8622 unto the ends H7098 of it:
And there is nothing hid H5641 from the heat H2535 thereof.
[7] The law H8451§ of the Lord H3068 is perfect, H8549 converting H7725§ the soul: H5315
The testimony H5715 of the Lord H3068 is sure, H539 making wise H2449 the simple. H6612
[8] The statutes H6490 of the Lord H3068 are right, H3477 rejoicing H8055 the heart: H3820
The commandment H4687 of the Lord H3068 is pure, H1249 enlightening H215 the eyes. H5869
[9] The fear H3374 of the Lord H3068 is clean, H2889 enduring H5975 for ever: H5703
The judgments H4941 of the Lord H3068 are true H571§ and righteous H6663 altogether. H3162
[10] More to be desired H2530 are they than gold, H2091 yea, than much H7227 fine gold: H6337
Sweeter H4966 also than honey H1706 and the honeycomb. H5317§ H6688
[11] Moreover by them is thy servant H5650 warned: H2094
And in keeping H8104 of them there is great H7227 reward. H6118
[12] Who can understand H995 his errors? H7691
Cleanse H5352 thou me from secret H5641 faults.
[13] Keep back H2820 thy servant H5650 also H1571 from presumptuous H2086 sins; Let them not have dominion H4910 over me:
Then shall I be upright, H8552 and I shall be innocent H5352 from the great H7227§ transgression. H6588
[14] Let the words H561 of my mouth, H6310 and the meditation H1902 of my heart, H3820 be acceptable H7522 in thy sight, H6440
O Lord, H3068 my strength, H6697§ and my redeemer. H1350
