God has made a tent in heaven for the sun.
⁵ The sun is like a groom
    coming out of his honeymoon suite;
    like a warrior, it thrills at running its course.
⁶ It rises in one end of the sky;
    its circuit is complete at the other.
        Nothing escapes its heat.

⁷ The Lord’s Instruction is perfect,
    reviving one’s very being.^[b]
The Lord’s laws are faithful,
    making naive people wise.
⁸ The Lord’s regulations are right,
    gladdening the heart.
The Lord’s commands are pure,
    giving light to the eyes.
⁹ Honoring the Lord is correct,
    lasting forever.
The Lord’s judgments are true.
    All of these are righteous!
¹⁰ They are more desirable than gold—
        than tons of pure gold!
    They are sweeter than honey—
        even dripping off the honeycomb!
¹¹ No doubt about it:
    your servant is enlightened by them;
    there is great reward in keeping them.
¹² But can anyone know
    what they’ve accidentally done wrong?
    Clear me of any unknown sin
¹³         and save your servant from willful sins.
        Don’t let them rule me.
Then I’ll be completely blameless;
    I’ll be innocent of great wrongdoing.

¹⁴ Let the words of my mouth
    and the meditations of my heart
    be pleasing to you,
    Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
