诗篇 19

1For the leader. A psalm of David.

2The heavens declare the glory of God,the sky proclaims God’s handiwork.

3Day to day makes utterance,night to night speaks out.

4There is no utterance,there are no words,whose sound goes unheard.

5Their voice, “to shout.” carries throughout the earth,their words to the end of the world.[God] placed in them a tent for the sun,

6who is like a groom coming forth from the chamber,like a hero, eager to run his course.

7His rising-place is at one end of heaven,and his circuit reaches the other;nothing escapes his heat.

8The teaching of GOD is perfect,renewing life;the decrees of GOD are enduring,making the simple wise,

9The precepts of GOD are just,rejoicing the heart;the instruction of GOD is lucid,making the eyes light up.

10The fear of GOD is pure,abiding forever;the judgments of GOD are true,righteous altogether,

11more desirable than gold,than much fine gold;sweeter than honey,than drippings of the comb.

12Your servant pays them heed;in obeying them there is much reward.

13Who can be aware of errors?Clear me of unperceived guilt,

14and from willful sins keep Your servant;let them not dominate me;then shall I be blamelessand clear of grave offense.

15May the words of my mouthand the prayer of my heart as a source of speech, see note to Eccl. 5.1. be acceptable to You,O ETERNAL One, my rock and my redeemer.
