verse 1
Day to day
pours out speech
The heavens declare
the glory of God.
the precepts of the Lord are right,
rejoicing the heart;
sweeter also than honey
and drippings of the honeycomb.
The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul;
the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple;
Verse 7
night to night
reveals knowledge
the sky above
proclaims his handiwork.
the commandment of the Lord is pure,
enlightening the eyes;
Moreover, by them is your servant warned;
in keeping them there is great reward.
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
Verse 14
their words
to the end of the world.
Their voice goes out
through all the earth,
the fear of the Lord is clean,
enduring forever;
Who can discern his errors?
Declare me innocent from hidden faults.
More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb.
In them he has set
a tent for the sun,
which comes out like a
bridegroom leaving his chamber,
the rules of the Lord are true,
and righteous altogether.
Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me!
Then I shall be blameless, and innocent of great transgression.
the fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever;
the rules of the Lord are true, and righteous altogether.
Verse 9
The law of the Lord is perfect,
reviving the soul;
the testimony of the Lord is sure,
making wise the simple;
More to be desired are they than gold,
even much fine gold;
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
