Geneva1599 - Psalms - 19

19:1  To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. The heauens declare the glory of God, and the firmament sheweth ye worke of his hands.

19:2  Day vnto day vttereth the same, and night vnto night teacheth knowledge.

19:3  There is no speach nor language, where their voyce is not heard.

19:4  Their line is gone forth through all the earth, and their words into the endes of the world: in them hath he set a tabernacle for the sunne.

19:5  Which commeth forth as a bridegrome out of his chamber, and reioyceth like a mightie man to runne his race.

19:6  His going out is from the ende of the heauen, and his compasse is vnto the endes of ye same, and none is hid from the heate thereof.

19:7  The Lawe of the Lord is perfite, conuerting the soule: the testimonie of the Lord is sure, and giueth wisedome vnto the simple.

19:8  The statutes of the Lord are right and reioyce the heart: the commandement of the Lord is pure, and giueth light vnto the eyes.

19:9  The feare of the Lord is cleane, and indureth for euer: the iudgements of the Lord are trueth: they are righteous altogether,

19:10  And more to be desired then golde, yea, then much fine golde: sweeter also then honie and the honie combe.

19:11  Moreouer by them is thy seruant made circumspect, and in keeping of them there is great reward.

19:12  Who can vnderstand his faultes? clense me from secret fautes.

19:13  Keepe thy seruant also from presumptuous sinnes: let them not reigne ouer me: so shall I be vpright, and made cleane from much wickednes.

19:14  Let the wordes of my mouth, and the meditation of mine heart be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strength, and my redeemer.
