1 The Heavens declare the Glory of God; and The Firmament shows His handiwork.
2 Day unto day utters speech, and night unto night shows knowledge.
3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a Tabernacle for the Sun,
5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoices as a strong man to run a race.
6 His going forth is from the end of the Heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hidden from the heat thereof.
7 The Law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the Testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
8 The Statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the Commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9 The reverence of the Lord is pure, enduring for ever: the Judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
10 More to be desired are they than gold, yes, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
11 Moreover by them is your servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.
12 Who can understand sin? cleanse me from hidden faults.
13 Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.
14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.
