Psalm 19 (WEBP)
[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.

[12] Who can understand H995 (QalImpf) his errors? H7691 Cleanse H5352 (PielImpv) thou me from secret H5641 (NiphPtc) faults.
[13] Keep back H2820 (QalImpv) thy servant H5650 also from presumptuous H2086 sins; Let them not have dominion H4910 (QalImpf) over me: Then shall I be upright, H8552 (QalImpf) and I shall be innocent H5352 (NiphPerf) 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 (QalActPtc)

Psalm 19 (BYZ)
[1] [18:1] εις το τελος ψαλμος τω δαυιδ [18:2] οι ουρανοι διηγουνται δοξαν θεου ποιησιν δε χειρων αυτου αναγγελλει το στερεωμα
[2] [18:3] ημερα τη ημερα ερευγεται ρημα και νυξ νυκτι αναγγελλει γνωσιν
[3] [18:4] ουκ εισιν λαλιαι ουδε λογοι ων ουχι ακουονται αι φωναι αυτων
[4] [18:5] εις πασαν την γην εξηλθεν ο φθογγος αυτων και εις τα περατα της οικουμενης τα ρηματα αυτων εν τω ηλιω εθετο το σκηνωμα αυτου
[5] [18:6] και αυτος ως νυμφιος εκπορευομενος εκ παστου αυτου αγαλλιασεται ως γιγας δραμειν οδον αυτου
[6] [18:7] απ ακρου του ουρανου η εξοδος αυτου και το καταντημα αυτου εως ακρου του ουρανου και ουκ εστιν ος αποκρυβησεται την θερμην αυτου
[7] [18:8] ο νομος του κυριου αμωμος επιστρεφων ψυχας η μαρτυρια κυριου πιστη σοφιζουσα νηπια
[8] [18:9] τα δικαιωματα κυριου ευθεια ευφραινοντα καρδιαν η εντολη κυριου τηλαυγης φωτιζουσα οφθαλμους
[9] [18:10] ο φοβος κυριου αγνος διαμενων εις αιωνα αιωνος τα κριματα κυριου αληθινα δεδικαιωμενα επι το αυτο
[10] [18:11] επιθυμητα υπερ χρυσιον και λιθον τιμιον πολυν και γλυκυτερα υπερ μελι και κηριον
[11] [18:12] και γαρ ο δουλος σου φυλασσει αυτα εν τω φυλασσειν αυτα ανταποδοσις πολλη
[12] [18:13] παραπτωματα τις συνησει εκ των κρυφιων μου καθαρισον με
[13] [18:14] και απο αλλοτριων φεισαι του δουλου σου εαν μη μου κατακυριευσωσιν τοτε αμωμος εσομαι και καθαρισθησομαι απο αμαρτιας μεγαλης
[14] [18:15] και εσονται εις ευδοκιαν τα λογια του στοματος μου και η μελετη της καρδιας μου ενωπιον σου δια παντος κυριε βοηθε μου και λυτρωτα μου
