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.

Psalm 19 (KJVS)
[1] «To the chief Musician H5329 (8764), A Psalm H4210 of David H1732.» The heavens H8064 declare H5608 (8764) the glory H3519 of God H410; and the firmament H7549 sheweth his H5046 (8688) handywork H4639 H3027.
[2] Day H3117 unto day H3117 uttereth H5042 (8686) speech H562, and night H3915 unto night H3915 sheweth H2331 (8762) knowledge H1847.
[3] [There is] no speech H562 nor language H1697, [where] their voice H6963 is not heard H8085 (8738).
[4] Their line H6957 is gone out H3318 (8804) through all the earth H776, and their words H4405 to the end H7097 of the world H8398. In them hath he set H7760 (8804) a tabernacle H168 for the sun H8121,
[5] Which [is] as a bridegroom H2860 coming out H3318 (8802) of his chamber H2646, [and] rejoiceth H7797 (8799) as a strong man H1368 to run H7323 (8800) 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 (8737) from the heat H2535 thereof.
[7] The law H8451 of the LORD H3068 [is] perfect H8549, converting H7725 (8688) the soul H5315: the testimony H5715 of the LORD H3068 [is] sure H539 (8737), making wise H2449 (8688) the simple H6612.
[8] The statutes H6490 of the LORD H3068 [are] right H3477, rejoicing H8055 (8764) the heart H3820: the commandment H4687 of the LORD H3068 [is] pure H1249, enlightening H215 (8688) the eyes H5869.
[9] The fear H3374 of the LORD H3068 [is] clean H2889, enduring H5975 (8802) for ever H5703: the judgments H4941 of the LORD H3068 [are] true H571 [and] righteous H6663 (8804) altogether H3162.
[10] More to be desired H2530 (8737) [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 (8737): [and] in keeping H8104 (8800) of them [there is] great H7227 reward H6118.
[12] Who can understand H995 (8799) [his] errors H7691? cleanse H5352 (8761) thou me from secret H5641 (8737) [faults].
[13] Keep back H2820 (8798) thy servant H5650 also from presumptuous H2086 [sins]; let them not have dominion H4910 (8799) over me: then shall I be upright H8552 (8799), and I shall be innocent H5352 (8738) 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 (8802).
Young’s Literal Translation
Psalm 19 (YLT)
[1] The heavens are recounting the honour of God, And the work of His hands The expanse is declaring.
[2] Day to day uttereth speech, And night to night sheweth knowledge.
[3] There is no speech, and there are no words. Their voice hath not been heard.
[4] Into all the earth hath their line gone forth, And to the end of the world their sayings, For the sun He placed a tent in them,
[5] And he, as a bridegroom, goeth out from his covering, He rejoiceth as a mighty one To run the path.
[6] From the end of the heavens is his going out, And his revolution is unto their ends, And nothing is hid from his heat.
[7] The law of Jehovah is perfect, refreshing the soul, The testimonies of Jehovah are stedfast, Making wise the simple,
[8] The precepts of Jehovah are upright, Rejoicing the heart, The command of Jehovah is pure, enlightening the eyes,
[9] The fear of Jehovah is clean, standing to the age, The judgments of Jehovah are true, They have been righteous-together.
[10] They are more desirable than gold, Yea, than much fine gold; and sweeter than honey, Even liquid honey of the comb.
[11] Also-Thy servant is warned by them, ‘In keeping them is a great reward.’
[12] Errors! who doth understand? From hidden ones declare me innocent,
[13] Also-from presumptuous ones keep back Thy servant, Let them not rule over me, Then am I perfect, And declared innocent of much transgression,
[14] Let the sayings of my mouth, And the meditation of my heart, Be for a pleasing thing before Thee, O Jehovah, my rock, and my redeemer!
