Book - Psalms - Chapter = 19 --> NLT
-
The heavens tell of the glory of God. The skies display his marvelous craftsmanship.
-
Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known.
-
They speak without a sound or a word; their voice is silent in the skies;
-
yet their message has gone out to all the earth, and their words to all the world. The sun lives in the heavens where God placed it.
-
It bursts forth like a radiant bridegroom after his wedding. It rejoices like a great athlete eager to run the race.
-
The sun rises at one end of the heavens and follows its course to the other end. Nothing can hide from its heat.
-
The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul. The decrees of the LORD are trustworthy, making wise the simple.
-
The commandments of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart. The commands of the LORD are clear, giving insight to life.
-
Reverence for the LORD is pure, lasting forever. The laws of the LORD are true; each one is fair.
-
They are more desirable than gold, even the finest gold. They are sweeter than honey, even honey dripping from the comb.
-
They are a warning to those who hear them; there is great reward for those who obey them.
-
How can I know all the sins lurking in my heart? Cleanse me from these hidden faults.
-
Keep me from deliberate sins! Don't let them control me. Then I will be free of guilt and innocent of great sin.
-
May the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart be pleasing to you, O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.
