19:2 | Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. |
19:3 | There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard. |
19:4 | Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun, |
19:5 | Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race. |
19:6 | His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof. |
19:7 | The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. |
19:8 | The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes. |
19:9 | The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether. |
19:10 | More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. |
19:11 | Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward. |
19:12 | Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults. |
19:13 | Keep back thy 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. |
19:14 | Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. |
