Psalms - Chapter 19 | Good News Translation

  • 1. How clearly the sky reveals God's glory! How plainly it shows what he has done!
  • 2. Each day announces it to the following day; each night repeats it to the next.
  • 3. No speech or words are used, no sound is heard;
  • 4. yet their message goes out to all the world and is heard to the ends of the earth. God made a home in the sky for the sun;
  • 5. it comes out in the morning like a happy bridegroom, like an athlete eager to run a race.
  • 6. It starts at one end of the sky and goes across to the other. Nothing can hide from its heat.
  • 7. The law of the LORD is perfect; it gives new strength. The commands of the LORD are trustworthy, giving wisdom to those who lack it.
  • 8. The laws of the LORD are right, and those who obey them are happy. The commands of the LORD are just and give understanding to the mind.
  • 9. Reverence for the LORD is good; it will continue forever. The judgments of the LORD are just; they are always fair.
  • 10. They are more desirable than the finest gold; they are sweeter than the purest honey.
  • 11. They give knowledge to me, your servant; I am rewarded for obeying them.
  • 12. None of us can see our own errors; deliver me, LORD, from hidden faults!
  • 13. Keep me safe, also, from willful sins; don't let them rule over me. Then I shall be perfect and free from the evil of sin.
  • 14. May my words and my thoughts be acceptable to you, O LORD, my refuge and my redeemer!
