Psalms 19:5-12
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 19
5Which is like a groom coming out of his chamber; It rejoices like a strong person to run his course. 6Its rising is from one end of the heavens, And its circuit to the other end of them; And there is nothing hidden from its heat. 7The Law of the Lord is perfect, restoring the soul; The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. 8The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. 9The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; The judgments of the Lord are true; they are righteous altogether. 10They are more desirable than gold, yes, than much pure gold; Sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb. 11Moreover, Your servant is warned by them; In keeping them there is great reward. 12Who can discern his errors? Acquit me of hidden faults.King James Version
Chapter 19
5Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race. 6His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
7The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
8The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
10More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
11Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward.
12Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 19
5It is like a bridegroom coming from his home; it rejoices like an athlete running a course.
6It rises from one end of the heavens and circles to their other end; nothing is hidden from its heat.
7The instruction of the Lord is perfect, renewing one's life; the testimony of the Lord is trustworthy, making the inexperienced wise.
8The precepts of the Lord are right, making the heart glad; the command of the Lord is radiant, making the eyes light up.
9The fear of the Lord is pure, enduring forever; the ordinances of the Lord are reliable and altogether righteous.
10They are more desirable than gold -- than an abundance of pure gold; and sweeter than honey dripping from a honeycomb.
New Living Translation
Chapter 19
5It bursts forth like a radiant bridegroom after his wedding. It rejoices like a great athlete eager to run the race. 6The sun rises at one end of the heavens and follows its course to the other end. Nothing can hide from its heat.
7The instructions of the Lord are perfect, reviving the soul. The decrees of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple.
8The commandments of the Lord are right, bringing joy to the heart. The commands of the Lord are clear, giving insight for living.
9Reverence for the Lord is pure, lasting forever. The laws of the Lord are true; each one is fair.
10They are more desirable than gold, even the finest gold. They are sweeter than honey, even honey dripping from the comb.
11They are a warning to your servant, a great reward for those who obey them.
