Listen from:
Chap. 19
1 To the chief musician; a Psalm of David.
2 The heavens [are] telling the glory of God,1 and the expanse [is] shelving the work of his hands.
3 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth knowledge.
4 [There is] no speech and [there are] no words; their voice is not heard.
5 In all the earth their line has gone forth, and their speech unto the end of the world; in them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun;
6 And it [is] as a bridegroom going forth from his bridal chamber; it rejoiceth as a mighty man to run a course.
7 From the end of the heavens [is] its going forth, and its circuit unto their ends, and nothing is hidden from its heat.
8 The law of Jehovah [is] perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of Jehovah [is] true, making wise the simple.
9 The precepts of Jehovah [are] right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of Jehovah [is] clear, enlightening the eyes.
10 The fear of Jehovah [is] pure, enduring forever; the judgments of Jehovah [are] truth, they [are] righteous altogether,
11 To be desired more than gold, and more than much pure gold; and sweeter than honey and the dropping of the honeycomb.
12 Also thy servant is admonished by them, in keeping them [is] great reward.
13 Errors—who discerneth them? cleanse thou me from secret [ones].
14 Also from presumptuous [ones] keep back thy servant; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and be clear from much transgression.
15 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable before thee, O Jehovah, my rock and my redeemer.
