Psalm 19 (New Living Translation)

For the choir director: A psalm of David.

1
The heavens tell of the glory of God.
The skies display his marvelous craftsmanship.

2
Day after day they continue to speak;
night after night they make him known.

3
They speak without a sound or a word;
their voice is silent in the skies;[a]

4
yet their message has gone out to all the earth,
and their words to all the world.
The sun lives in the heavens
where God placed it.

5
It bursts forth like a radiant bridegroom
after his wedding.
It rejoices like a great athlete
eager to run the race.

6
The sun rises at one end of the heavens
and follows its course to the other end.
Nothing can hide from its heat.

7
The law of the LORD is perfect,
reviving the soul.
The decrees of the LORD are trustworthy,
making wise the simple.

8
The commandments of the LORD are right,
bringing joy to the heart.
The commands of the LORD are clear,
giving insight to life.

9
Reverence for the LORD is pure,
lasting forever.
The laws of the LORD are true;
each one is fair.

10
They are more desirable than gold,
even the finest gold.
They are sweeter than honey,
even honey dripping from the comb.

11
They are a warning to those who hear them;
there is great reward for those who obey them.

12
How can I know all the sins lurking in my heart?
Cleanse me from these hidden faults.

13
Keep me from deliberate sins!
Don't let them control me.
Then I will be free of guilt
and innocent of great sin.

14
May the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart
be pleasing to you,
O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.
