The Heavens Declare the Glory of God
For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.
The heavens declare the glory of God; Psa 8:3Rom 1:19-20Psa 50:6Psa 148:3-4Psa 33:6Gen 1:14-15Psa 150:1-2Dan 12:3
the skies proclaim the work of His hands.
Day after day they pour forth speech; Psa 74:16Psa 134:1-3Gen 1:17-18Gen 8:22Psa 24:7-10Isa 38:19Psa 136:8-9Psa 78:3-6
night after night they reveal knowledge.
Without speech or language, Deu 4:19
without a sound to be heard, 1
their voice 2has gone out into all the earth, Rom 10:18Gen 1:14-18Mal 4:2Psa 104:2Psa 98:32Co 10:13-16Isa 49:6
their words to the ends of the world. 3
In the heavens He has pitched
a tent for the sun.
Like a bridegroom emerging from his chamber, Isa 62:5Php 3:13-14Isa 61:101Co 9:24-26Heb 12:1-2Ecc 1:5Jhn 3:29
like a champion rejoicing to run his course,
it rises at one end of the heavens Ecc 1:5Job 22:14Col 1:23Job 25:3Psa 113:3Psa 139:9
and runs its circuit to the other;
nothing is deprived of its warmth.
The Law of the LORD is perfect, Psa 119:130Psa 111:7Col 3:16Pro 1:4Psa 23:32Ti 3:15-17Psa 119:105Deu 32:4
reviving the soul;
the testimony of the LORD is trustworthy,
making wise the simple.
The precepts of the LORD are right, Psa 12:6Psa 119:105Jer 15:16Pro 30:5Pro 2:6Psa 119:128Psa 119:92Psa 119:80
bringing joy to the heart;
the commandments of the LORD are radiant,
giving light to the eyes.
The fear of the LORD is pure, 1Sa 12:24Psa 119:142Psa 119:137-138Psa 111:10Psa 119:1Psa 34:11-14Psa 115:13Rev 15:3
enduring forever;
the judgments of the LORD are true,
being altogether righteous.
They are more precious than gold, Psa 119:103Psa 119:72Pro 16:16Pro 3:13-15Psa 119:127Job 23:12Pro 8:10-11Pro 8:19
than much pure gold;
they are sweeter than honey,
than honey from the comb.
By them indeed Your servant is warned; Psa 119:112Jn 1:8Jas 1:25Heb 11:6-7Pro 29:18Mat 6:4Pro 6:22-23Rev 14:13
in keeping them is great reward.
Who can discern his own errors? Psa 90:8Psa 139:23-24Job 6:24Jer 17:9Psa 40:121Co 4:41Jn 1:7Psa 139:6
Cleanse me from my hidden faults.
Keep Your servant also from willful sins; Psa 119:133Rom 6:12-14Psa 7:101Sa 25:39Act 24:16Psa 84:11Deu 17:12-13Gen 20:6
may they not rule over me.
Then I will be blameless
and cleansed of great transgression.
May the words of my mouth Psa 104:34Psa 51:15Psa 119:1081Pe 2:5Psa 66:18-20Pro 15:8Psa 18:1-2Heb 11:4
and the meditation of my heart
be pleasing in Your sight,
O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.
