For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. The heavens declare the glory of God. The expanse shows his handiwork. (MT 19:2; LXX 18:1; LXX 18:2; Rahlfs 18:1; Rahlfs 18:2)
לַמְנַצֵּ֗חַ מִזְמ֥וֹר לְדָוִֽד׃
2Day after day they pour out speech, and night after night they display knowledge. (MT 19:3; LXX 18:3; Rahlfs 18:3)
הַשָּׁמַ֗יִם מְֽסַפְּרִ֥ים כְּבֽוֹד־אֵ֑ל וּֽמַעֲשֵׂ֥ה יָ֝דָ֗יו מַגִּ֥יד הָרָקִֽיעַ׃
3There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard. (MT 19:4; LXX 18:4; Rahlfs 18:4)
י֣וֹם לְ֭יוֹם יַבִּ֣יעַֽ אֹ֑מֶר וְלַ֥יְלָה לְּ֝לַ֗יְלָה יְחַוֶּה־דָּֽעַת׃
4Their voice has gone out through all the earth, their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun, (MT 19:5; LXX 18:5; Rahlfs 18:5)
אֵֽין־אֹ֭מֶר וְאֵ֣ין דְּבָרִ֑ים בְּ֝לִ֗י נִשְׁמָ֥ע קוֹלָֽם׃
5which is as a bridegroom coming out of his room, like a strong man rejoicing to run his course. (MT 19:6; LXX 18:6; Rahlfs 18:6)
בְּכָל־הָאָ֨רֶץ ׀ יָ֘צָ֤א קַוָּ֗ם וּבִקְצֵ֣ה תֵ֭בֵל מִלֵּיהֶ֑ם לַ֝שֶּׁ֗מֶשׁ שָֽׂם־אֹ֥הֶל בָּהֶֽם׃
6His going out is from the end of the heavens, his circuit to its ends. There is nothing hidden from its heat. (MT 19:7; LXX 18:7; Rahlfs 18:7)
וְה֗וּא כְּ֭חָתָן יֹצֵ֣א מֵחֻפָּת֑וֹ יָשִׂ֥ישׂ כְּ֝גִבּ֗וֹר לָר֥וּץ אֹֽרַח׃
7Yahweh’s law is perfect, restoring the soul. Yahweh’s covenant is sure, making wise the simple. (MT 19:8; LXX 18:8; Rahlfs 18:8)
מִקְצֵ֤ה הַשָּׁמַ֨יִם ׀ מֽוֹצָא֗וֹ וּתְקוּפָת֥וֹ עַל־קְצוֹתָ֑ם וְאֵ֥ין נִ֝סְתָּ֗ר מֵֽחַמָּתוֹ׃
8Yahweh’s precepts are right, rejoicing the heart. Yahweh’s commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes. (MT 19:9; LXX 18:9; Rahlfs 18:9)
תּ֘וֹרַ֤ת יְהוָ֣ה תְּ֭מִימָה מְשִׁ֣יבַת נָ֑פֶשׁ עֵד֥וּת יְהוָ֥ה נֶ֝אֱמָנָ֗ה מַחְכִּ֥ימַת פֶּֽתִי׃
9The fear of Yahweh is clean, enduring forever. Yahweh’s ordinances are true, and righteous altogether. (MT 19:10; LXX 18:10; Rahlfs 18:10)
פִּקּ֘וּדֵ֤י יְהוָ֣ה יְ֭שָׁרִים מְשַׂמְּחֵי־לֵ֑ב מִצְוַ֥ת יְהוָ֥ה בָּ֝רָ֗ה מְאִירַ֥ת עֵינָֽיִם׃
10They are more to be desired than gold, yes, than much fine gold, sweeter also than honey and the extract of the honeycomb. (MT 19:11; LXX 18:11; Rahlfs 18:11)
יִרְאַ֤ת יְהוָ֨ה ׀ טְהוֹרָה֮ עוֹמֶ֪דֶת לָ֫עַ֥ד מִֽשְׁפְּטֵי־יְהוָ֥ה אֱמֶ֑ת צָֽדְק֥וּ יַחְדָּֽו׃
11Moreover your servant is warned by them. In keeping them there is great reward. (MT 19:12; LXX 18:12; Rahlfs 18:12)
הַֽנֶּחֱמָדִ֗ים מִ֭זָּהָב וּמִפַּ֣ז רָ֑ב וּמְתוּקִ֥ים מִ֝דְּבַ֗שׁ וְנֹ֣פֶת צוּפִֽים׃
12Who can discern his errors? Forgive me from hidden errors. (MT 19:13; LXX 18:13; Rahlfs 18:13)
גַּֽם־עַ֭בְדְּךָ נִזְהָ֣ר בָּהֶ֑ם בְּ֝שָׁמְרָ֗ם עֵ֣קֶב רָֽב׃
13Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins. Let them not have dominion over me. Then I will be upright. I will be blameless and innocent of great transgression. (MT 19:14; LXX 18:14; Rahlfs 18:14)
שְׁגִיא֥וֹת מִֽי־יָבִ֑ין מִֽנִּסְתָּר֥וֹת נַקֵּֽנִי׃
14Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, Yahweh, my rock, and my redeemer. (MT 19:15; LXX 18:15; Rahlfs 18:15)
גַּ֤ם מִזֵּדִ֨ים ׀ חֲשֹׂ֬ךְ עַבְדֶּ֗ךָ אַֽל־יִמְשְׁלוּ־בִ֣י אָ֣ז אֵיתָ֑ם וְ֝נִקֵּ֗יתִי מִפֶּ֥שַֽׁע רָֽב׃
