Psalms 19

PSALM 19.
1Unto the end. A psalm for David.
2May the Lord hear thee in the day of tribulation: may the name of the God of Jacob protect thee.
3May he send thee help from the sanctuary: and defend thee out of Sion.
4May he be mindful of all thy sacrifices: and may thy whole burnt offering be made fat.
5May he give thee according to thy own heart; and confirm all thy counsels.
6We will rejoice in thy salvation; and in the name of our God we shall be exalted.
7The Lord fulfil all thy petitions: now have I known that the Lord hath saved his anointed. He will hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is in powers.
8Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will call upon the name of the Lord our God.
9They are bound, and have fallen; but we are risen, and are set upright.
O Lord, save the king: and hear us in the day that we shall call upon thee.

Psalms 19

Psalm 19
For the choir director; a psalm by David.
1The heavens declare the glory of God,
and the sky displays what his hands have made.
2One day tells a story to the next.
One night shares knowledge with the next
3without talking,
without words,
without their voices being heard.
4 ⌞Yet,⌟ their sound has gone out into the entire world,
their message to the ends of the earth.
He has set up a tent in the heavens for the sun,
5which comes out of its chamber like a bridegroom.
Like a champion, it is eager to run its course.
6It rises from one end of the heavens.
It circles around to the other.
Nothing is hidden from its heat.
7The teachings of the Lord are perfect.
They renew the soul.
The testimony of the Lord is dependable.
It makes gullible people wise.
8The instructions of the Lord are correct.
They make the heart rejoice.
The command of the Lord is radiant.
It makes the eyes shine.
9The fear of the Lord is pure.
It endures forever.
The decisions of the Lord are true.
They are completely fair.
10They are more desirable than gold, even the finest gold.
They are sweeter than honey, even the drippings from a honeycomb.
11As your servant I am warned by them.
There is a great reward in following them.
12Who can notice every mistake?
Forgive my hidden faults.
13Keep me from sinning.
Do not let anyone gain control over me.
Then I will be blameless,
and I will be free from any great offense.
14May the words from my mouth and the thoughts from my heart
be acceptable to you, O Lord, my rock and my defender.
