Gen 1:1 - Ps 20:1
The heavens declare the glory of God;the skies proclaim the work of his hands. 2 Day after day they pour forth speech;night after night they display knowledge. 3 There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard. 4 Their voice goes out into all the earth,their words to the ends of the world.In the heavens he has pitched a tent for the sun, 5 which is like a bridegroom coming forth from his pavilion,like a champion rejoicing to run his course. 6 It rises at one end of the heavens and makes its circuit to the other;nothing is hidden from its heat. 7 The law of the LORD is perfect,reviving the soul.The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy,making wise the simple. 8 The precepts of the LORD are right,giving joy to the heart.The commands of the LORD are radiant,giving light to the eyes. 9 The fear of the LORD is pure,enduring forever.The ordinances of the LORD are sure and altogether righteous. 10 They are more precious than gold,than much pure gold;they are sweeter than honey,than honey from the comb. 11 By them is your servant warned;in keeping them there is great reward. 12 Who can discern his errors?Forgive my hidden faults. 13 Keep your servant also from willful sins;may they not rule over me.Then will I be blameless,innocent of great transgression. 14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight,O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.
