Psalm 19

Vers 1

The heav’ns God’s glory do declare,
the skies his hand-works preach:
Day utters speech to day, and night
to night doth knowledge teach.

Vers 2

There is no speech nor tongue to which
their voice doth not extend:
Their line is gone through all the earth,
their words to the world’s end.

Vers 3

In them he set the sun a tent;
Who, bridegroom-like, forth goes
From’s chamber, as a strong man doth
to run his race rejoice.

Vers 4

From heav’n’s end is his going forth,
circling to th’ end again;
And there is nothing from his heat
that hidden doth remain.

Vers 5

God’s law is perfect, and converts
the soul in sin that lies:
God’s testimony is most sure,
and makes the simple wise.

Vers 6

The statutes of the Lord are right,
and do rejoice the heart:
The Lord’s command is pure, and doth
light to the eyes impart.

Vers 7

Unspotted is the fear of God,
and doth endure for ever:
The judgments of the Lord are true
and righteous altogether.

Vers 8

They more than gold, yea, much fine gold,
to be desired are:
Than honey, honey from the comb
that droppeth, sweeter far.

Vers 9

Moreover, they thy servant warn
how he his life should frame:
A great reward provided is
for them that keep the same.

Vers 10

Who can his errors understand?
O cleanse thou me within
From secret faults. Thy servant keep
from all presumptuous sin:

Vers 11

And do not suffer them to have
dominion over me:
Then, righteous and innocent,
I from much sin shall be.

Vers 12

The words which from my mouth proceed,
the thoughts sent from my heart,
Accept, O Lord, for thou my strength
and my Redeemer art.
