Psalm 19:7-14 English Standard Version
7 (A)The law of the Lord is perfect,[a]
(B)reviving the soul;
(C)the testimony of the Lord is (D)sure,
(E)making wise (F)the simple;
8 (G)the precepts of the Lord are right,
rejoicing the heart;
the commandment of the Lord is (H)pure,
(I)enlightening the eyes;
9 the fear of the Lord is clean,
enduring forever;
the rules[b] of the Lord are (J)true,
and righteous altogether.
10 More to be desired are they than (K)gold,
even much (L)fine gold;
(M)sweeter also than honey
and drippings of (N)the honeycomb.
11 Moreover, by them is your servant warned;
(O)in keeping them there is great reward.
12 (P)Who can discern his errors?
(Q)Declare me innocent from (R)hidden faults.
13 (S)Keep back your servant also from (T)presumptuous sins;
let them not have (U)dominion over me!
Then I shall be blameless,
and innocent of great transgression.
14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be acceptable in your sight,
O Lord, my (V)rock and my (W)redeemer.
