1 To the chiefe musition, a psalme of Dauid. The heauens declare the glorie of God: and the firmament sheweth his handy worke. The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. For the director of music. A psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
2 A day occasioneth talke therof vnto a day: and a night teacheth knoweledge vnto a nyght. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.
3 No language, no wordes, no voyce of theirs is hearde: There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard. They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them.
4 (19:3) yet their sounde goeth into all landes, and their wordes into the endes of the worlde. (19:4) In them he hath set a tabernacle for the sunne: Their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun, Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun.
5 (19:4) which commeth foorth as a bridegrome out of his chamber, and reioyceth as a giaunt to runne his course. which comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber, and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy. It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course.
6 (19:5) His settyng foorth is from the vtmost part of heauen, and his circuite vnto the vtmost part therof: and there is nothing hyd from his heat. Its rising is from the end of the heavens, and its circuit to the end of them, and there is nothing hidden from its heat. It rises at one end of the heavens and makes its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.
7 (19:6) The lawe of God is perfect, conuerting the soule: the testimonie of God is sure, and geueth wisdome vnto the simple. The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple; The law of the LORD is perfect, refreshing the soul. The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy, making wise the simple.
8 (19:7) The statutes of God are right, and reioyce the heart: the commaundement of God is pure, and geueth light vnto the eyes. the precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes; The precepts of the LORD are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes.
9 (19:8) The feare of God is sincere, & endureth for euer: the iudgementes of God are trueth, they be iust in all poyntes. the fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever; the rules of the LORD are true, and righteous altogether. The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever. The decrees of the LORD are firm, and all of them are righteous.
10 (19:9) They are more to be desired then golde, yea then much fine golde: they are also sweeter then hony and the hony combe. More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb. They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the honeycomb.
11 (19:10) Moreouer, by them thy seruaunt is well aduertised: and in kepyng of them there is a great rewarde. Moreover, by them is your servant warned; in keeping them there is great reward. By them your servant is warned; in keeping them there is great reward.
12 (19:11) Who can knowe his owne errours? Oh cleanse thou me from those that I am not priuie of. Who can discern his errors? Declare me innocent from hidden faults. But who can discern their own errors? Forgive my hidden faults.
13 (19:12) Kepe thy seruaunt also from presumptuous sinnes let them not raigne ouer me: so I shall be perfect & voyde from all haynous offence. Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins; let them not have dominion over me! Then I shall be blameless, and innocent of great transgression. Keep your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless, innocent of great transgression.
14 (19:13) Let the wordes of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight O God: my strength and my redeemer. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O LORD, my rock and my redeemer. May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.
