A Psalm of David, to the chief Musician. |
Psalm 19:1-14 Book# 1 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks] |
The heavens declare the glory of God & the [sky] shows His handiwork. Speech is uttered day [by] day & night to night, knowledge [is revealed.] There is no speech, nor language, where their voice isn't heard. |
Their [measuring] line [has] gone out through all the earth & their words to the [ends] of the world. In [these,] He has [put] a tabernacle for the sun, which is [like] a bridegroom coming out of his [room, who] rejoices [like] a strong man [about] to run a race. |
He [goes out] from the [ends] of heaven. His [orbit is to] the ends of it & there is nothing hidden from [its] heat. [Romans 10:18 But I say, Haven't they heard? Yes, [truly,] their [voices] went into all the earth & their words to the ends of the world.] |
The Law of the Lord is perfect, [restoring] the soul. The Testimony of the Lord is [beyond doubt,] making the simple, wise. The [mandates] of the Lord are right, [causing] rejoicing [of] the heart. |
The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear [respect] of the Lord is [free from impurities,] enduring forever. The judgments of the Lord are altogether true & righteous. |
They are more to be desired than gold. [Yes,] than much fine gold: also, sweeter than honey & the honeycomb. [Psalm 119:127 Therefore, I love Your commandments above gold; [yes,] above fine gold.] |
In keeping [these,] there is great reward & [also] by them, your servant is warned. Who can understand his errors? You, cleanse me from my secret faults. |
[Psalm 51:1-2 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to Your loving kindness. And according to Your [many] mercies, blot out my [sins.] Wash me thoroughly from [my] iniquity & cleanse me from my sin.] |
Keep Your servant back from [unintentional] sins & also [don't] let them have [control] over me. Then I shall be upright & I shall be innocent from the [large sins.] |
[Psalm 119:133 In Your Word, order my steps & [don't] let any [sin] have [control] over me.] Let the words of my mouth & the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength & my redeemer. |
