19:1  THE HEAVENS declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows {and} proclaims His handiwork.

19:2  Day after day pours forth speech, and night after night shows forth knowledge.

19:3  There is no speech nor spoken word [from the stars]; their voice is not heard.

19:4  Yet their voice [in evidence] goes out through all the earth, their sayings to the end of the world. Of the heavens has God made a tent for the sun,

19:5  Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber; and it rejoices as a strong man to run his course.

19:6  Its going forth is from the end of the heavens, and its circuit to the ends of it; and nothing [yes, no one] is hidden from the heat of it.

19:7  The law of the Lord is perfect, restoring the [whole] person; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.

19:8  The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure {and} bright, enlightening the eyes.

19:9  The [reverent] fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; the ordinances of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.

19:10  More to be desired are they than gold, even than much fine gold; they are sweeter also than honey and drippings from the honeycomb.

19:11  Moreover, by them is Your servant warned (reminded, illuminated, and instructed); and in keeping them there is great reward.

19:12  Who can discern his lapses {and} errors? Clear me from hidden [and unconscious] faults.

19:13  Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me! Then shall I be blameless, and I shall be innocent {and} clear of great transgression.

19:14  Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my [firm, impenetrable] Rock and my Redeemer.
