1 [To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.] The heavens declare the glory of *God; and the expanse sheweth the work of his hands.2 Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.3 There is no speech and there are no words, yet their voice is heard.4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their language to the extremity of the world. In them hath he set a tent for the sun,5 And he is as a bridegroom going forth from his chamber; he rejoiceth as a strong man to run the race.6 His going forth is from the end of the heavens, and his circuit unto the ends of it; and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.7 The law of Jehovah is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of Jehovah is sure, making wise the simple;8 The precepts of Jehovah are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of Jehovah is pure, enlightening the eyes;9 The fear of Jehovah is clean, enduring for ever; the judgments of Jehovah are truth, they are righteous altogether:10 They are more precious than gold, yea, than much fine gold; and sweeter than honey and the dropping of the honeycomb.11 Moreover, by them is thy servant enlightened; in keeping them there is great reward.12 Who understandeth {his} errors? Purify me from secret {faults}.13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous {sins}; let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be perfect, and I shall be innocent from great transgression.14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O Jehovah, my rock, and my redeemer.

1 诸天述说 神的荣耀， 穹苍传扬他的作为。 2 天天发出言语， 夜夜传出知识。 3 没有话语， 没有言词， 人也听不到它们的声音。 4 它们的声音（"声音"原文作"准绳"）传遍全地， 它们的言语传到地极， 神在它们中间为太阳安设帐幕。 5 太阳如同新郎出洞房， 又像勇士欢欢喜喜地跑路。 6 它从天的这边出来， 绕行到天的那边； 没有什么可以隐藏， 得不到它的温暖。 7 耶和华的律法是完全的， 能使人心苏醒； 耶和华的法度是坚定的， 能使愚人有智慧。 8 耶和华的训词是正直的， 能使人心快乐； 耶和华的命令是清洁的， 能使人的眼睛明亮。 9 耶和华的话语（"耶和华的话语"原文作"耶和华的敬畏"）是洁净的， 能坚立到永远； 耶和华的典章是真实的， 完全公义； 10 都比金子宝贵， 比大量的精金更宝贵； 比蜜甘甜， 比蜂房滴下来的蜜更甘甜； 11 并且你的仆人也借着这些得到警戒， 谨守这些就得着大赏赐。 12 谁能知道自己的错误呢？求你赦免我隐而未现的过失。 13 求你拦阻你仆人， 不犯任意妄为的罪， 不许它们辖制我； 我才可以完全， 不犯大过。 14 耶和华我的磐石、我的救赎主啊！ 愿我口中的言语、心里的意念， 都在你面前蒙悦纳。
