[1] The heavens are telling the glory of God;
and the firmament proclaims his handiwork.
[2] Day to day pours forth speech,
and night to night declares knowledge.
[3] There is no speech, nor are there words;
their voice is not heard;
[4] yet their voice goes out through all the earth,
and their words to the end of the world.
In the heavens he has set a tent for the sun,
[5] which comes out like a bridegroom from his wedding canopy,
and like a strong man runs its course with joy.
[6] Its rising is from the end of the heavens,
and its circuit to the end of them;
and nothing is hidden from its heat.
[7] The law of the LORD is perfect,
reviving the soul;
the decrees of the LORD are sure,
making wise the simple;
[8] the precepts of the LORD are right,
rejoicing the heart;
the commandment of the LORD is clear,
enlightening the eyes;
[9] the fear of the LORD is pure,
enduring forever;
the ordinances of the LORD are true
and righteous altogether.
[10] More to be desired are they than gold,
even much fine gold;
sweeter also than honey,
and drippings of the honeycomb.
[11] Moreover by them is your servant warned;
in keeping them there is great reward.
[12] But who can detect their errors?
Clear me from hidden faults.
[13] Keep back your servant also from the insolent;
do not let them have dominion over me.
Then I shall be blameless,
and innocent of great transgression.
[14] Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be acceptable to you,
O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.
and the firmament proclaims his handiwork.
