Salmos 19
Reina-Valera 1960
Las obras y la palabra de Dios
Al músico principal. Salmo de David.
19 Los cielos cuentan la gloria de Dios,
Y el firmamento anuncia la obra de sus manos.
2 Un día emite palabra a otro día,
Y una noche a otra noche declara sabiduría.
3 No hay lenguaje, ni palabras,
Ni es oída su voz.
4 Por toda la tierra salió su voz,
Y hasta el extremo del mundo sus palabras.(A)
En ellos puso tabernáculo para el sol;
5 Y este, como esposo que sale de su tálamo,
Se alegra cual gigante para correr el camino.
6 De un extremo de los cielos es su salida,
Y su curso hasta el término de ellos;
Y nada hay que se esconda de su calor.
7 La ley de Jehová es perfecta, que convierte el alma;
El testimonio de Jehová es fiel, que hace sabio al sencillo.
8 Los mandamientos de Jehová son rectos, que alegran el corazón;
El precepto de Jehová es puro, que alumbra los ojos.
9 El temor de Jehová es limpio, que permanece para siempre;
Los juicios de Jehová son verdad, todos justos.
10 Deseables son más que el oro, y más que mucho oro afinado;
Y dulces más que miel, y que la que destila del panal.
11 Tu siervo es además amonestado con ellos;
En guardarlos hay grande galardón.
12 ¿Quién podrá entender sus propios errores?
Líbrame de los que me son ocultos.
13 Preserva también a tu siervo de las soberbias;
Que no se enseñoreen de mí;
Entonces seré íntegro, y estaré limpio de gran rebelión.
14 Sean gratos los dichos de mi boca y la meditación de mi corazón delante de ti,
Oh Jehová, roca mía, y redentor mío.

Psalm 19[a]
God’s Glory in the Heavens and in the Law
1 For the leader. A psalm of David.
I
2 The heavens declare the glory of God;
the firmament proclaims the works of his hands.(A)
3 Day unto day pours forth speech;
night unto night whispers knowledge.
4 [b]There is no speech, no words;
their voice is not heard;
5 A report goes forth through all the earth,
their messages, to the ends of the world.
He has pitched in them a tent for the sun;[c]
6 it comes forth like a bridegroom from his canopy,
and like a hero joyfully runs its course.
7 From one end of the heavens it comes forth;
its course runs through to the other;
nothing escapes its heat.
II
8 The law of the Lord is perfect,
refreshing the soul.
The decree of the Lord is trustworthy,
giving wisdom to the simple.(B)
9 The precepts of the Lord are right,
rejoicing the heart.
The command of the Lord is clear,
enlightening the eye.
10 The fear of the Lord is pure,
enduring forever.
The statutes of the Lord are true,
all of them just;
11 More desirable than gold,
than a hoard of purest gold,
Sweeter also than honey
or drippings from the comb.(C)
12 By them your servant is warned;[d]
obeying them brings much reward.
III
13 Who can detect trespasses?
Cleanse me from my inadvertent sins.
14 Also from arrogant ones restrain your servant;
let them never control me.
Then shall I be blameless,
innocent of grave sin.
15 Let the words of my mouth be acceptable,
the thoughts of my heart before you,
Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
Footnotes
- Psalm 19 The heavenly elements of the world, now beautifully arranged, bespeak the power and wisdom of their creator (Ps 19:2–7). The creator’s wisdom is available to human beings in the law (Ps 19:8–11), toward which the psalmist prays to be open (Ps 19:12–14). The themes of light and speech unify the poem.
- 19:4 No speech, no words: the regular functioning of the heavens and the alternation of day and night inform human beings without words of the creator’s power and wisdom.
- 19:5 The sun: in other religious literature the sun is a judge and lawgiver since it sees all in its daily course; Ps 19:5b–7 form a transition to the law in Ps 19:8–11. The six synonyms for God’s revelation (Ps 19:8–11) are applied to the sun in comparable literature.
- 19:12 Warned: the Hebrew verb means both to shine and to warn, cf. Dn 12:3.

1 The heavens(A) declare(B) the glory of God;(C)
the skies(D) proclaim the work of his hands.(E)
2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they reveal knowledge.(F)
3 They have no speech, they use no words;
no sound is heard from them.
4 Yet their voice[b] goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.(G)
In the heavens God has pitched a tent(H) for the sun.(I)
5 It is like a bridegroom(J) coming out of his chamber,(K)
like a champion(L) rejoicing to run his course.
6 It rises at one end of the heavens(M)
and makes its circuit to the other;(N)
nothing is deprived of its warmth.
7 The law of the Lord(O) is perfect,(P)
refreshing the soul.(Q)
The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy,(R)

8 The precepts of the Lord are right,(T)
giving joy(U) to the heart.
The commands of the Lord are radiant,
giving light to the eyes.(V)
9 The fear of the Lord(W) is pure,
enduring forever.
The decrees of the Lord are firm,
and all of them are righteous.(X)
10 They are more precious than gold,(Y)
than much pure gold;
they are sweeter than honey,(Z)
than honey from the honeycomb.(AA)
11 By them your servant is warned;
in keeping them there is great reward.
12 But who can discern their own errors?
Forgive my hidden faults.(AB)
13 Keep your servant also from willful sins;(AC)
may they not rule over me.(AD)
Then I will be blameless,(AE)
innocent of great transgression.
