the Heavens Declare the Glory of God... Posted: 05-28-04 20:37pm
Psalm 19
1 the heavens declare the glory of god;
and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
2 day unto day uttereth speech, and
night unto night sheweth knowledge.
3 there is no speech nor language, where
their voice is not heard.
4 their line is gone out through all the
earth, and their words to the end of the
world. In them hath he set a tabernacle
for the sun,
5 which is as a bridegroom coming out of
his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man
to run a race.
6 his 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.
7 the law of the lord is perfect,
converting the soul: the testimony of the
lord is sure, making wise the simple.
8 the statutes of the lord are right,
rejoicing the heart: the commandment of
the lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9 the fear of the lord is clean,
enduring for ever: the judgments of the
lord are true and righteous altogether.
10 more to be desired are they than
gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter
also than honey and the honeycomb.
11 moreover by them is thy servant
warned: and in keeping of them there is
great reward.
12 who can understand his errors?
Cleanse thou me from secret faults.
13 keep back thy servant also from
presumptuous sins; let them not have
dominion over me: then shall I be upright,
and I shall be innocent from the great
transgression.
14 let the words of my mouth, and the
meditation of my heart, be acceptable in
thy sight, o lord, my strength, and my
redeemer.

Psalm 143
1 hear my prayer, o lord, give ear to my
supplications: in thy faithfulness answer
me, and in thy righteousness.
2 and enter not into judgment with thy
servant: for in thy sight shall no man
living be justified.
3 for the enemy hath persecuted my soul;
he hath smitten my life down to the
ground; he hath made me to dwell in
darkness, as those that have been long
dead.
4 therefore is my spirit overwhelmed
within me; my heart within me is
desolate.
5 I remember the days of old; I meditate
on all thy works; I muse on the work of
thy hands.
6 I stretch forth my hands unto thee: my
soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty
land. Selah.
7 hear me speedily, o lord: my spirit
faileth: hide not thy face from me, lest I
be like unto them that go down into the
pit.
8 cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in
the morning; for in thee do I trust: cause
me to know the way wherein I should walk;
for I lift up my soul unto thee.
9 deliver me, o lord, from mine enemies:
I flee unto thee to hide me.
10 teach me to do thy will; for thou art
my god: thy spirit is good; lead me into
the land of uprightness.
11 quicken me, o lord, for thy name's
sake: for thy righteousness' sake bring my
soul out of trouble.
12 and of thy mercy cut off mine
enemies, and destroy all them that afflict
my soul: for I am thy servant.
