The Book of Psalms
Psalm 18
Coeli enarrant.
The works of God shew forth his glory: his law is greatly to be esteemed and loved.
 1 |
Unto the end. A Psalm for David. |
2 |
The heavens shew forth the glory of God, and the firmament declareth the work of his hands. |
3 |
Day to day uttereth speech, and night to night sheweth knowledge. |
4 |
There are no speeches nor languages, where their voices are not heard. |
5 |
Their sound hath gone forth into all the earth: and their words unto the ends of the world. |
6 |
He hath set his tabernacle in the sun: and he as a bridegroom coming out of his bridechamber, Hath rejoiced as a giant to run the way: |
7 |
His going out is from the end of heaven, And his circuit even to the end thereof: and there is no one that can hide himself from his heat. |
8 |
The law of the Lord is unspotted, converting souls: the testimony of the Lord is faithful, giving wisdom to little ones. |
9 |
The justices of the Lord are right, rejoicing hearts: the commandment of the Lord is lightsome, enlightening the eyes. |
10 |
The fear of the Lord is holy, enduring for ever and ever: the judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves. |
11 |
More to be desired than gold and many precious stones: and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb. |
12 |
For thy servant keepeth them, and in keeping them there is a great reward. |
13 |
Who can understand sins? from my secret ones cleanse me, O Lord: |
14 |
And from those of others spare thy servant. If they shall have no dominion over me, then shall I be without spot: and I shall be cleansed form the greatest sin. |
15 |
And the words of my mouth shall be such as may please: and the meditation of my heart always in thy sight. O Lord, my helper and my Redeemer. |
