Psalm 19
New King James Version
The Perfect Revelation of the Lord
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
19 The (A)heavens declare the glory of God;
And the (B)firmament[a] shows [b]His handiwork.
2 Day unto day utters speech,
And night unto night reveals knowledge.
3 There is no speech nor language
Where their voice is not heard.
4 (C)Their [c]line has gone out through all the earth,
And their words to the end of the world.
In them He has set a [d]tabernacle for the sun,
5 Which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
(D)And rejoices like a strong man to run its race.
6 Its rising is from one end of heaven,
And its circuit to the other end;
And there is nothing hidden from its heat.
7 (E)The law of the Lord is perfect, [e]converting the soul;
The testimony of the Lord is sure, making (F)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 forever;
The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
10 More to be desired are they than (G)gold,
Yea, than much fine gold;
Sweeter also than honey and the [f]honeycomb.
11 Moreover by them Your servant is warned,
And in keeping them there is great reward.
12 Who can understand his errors?
(H)Cleanse me from secret faults.
13 Keep back Your servant also from (I)presumptuous sins;
Let them not have (J)dominion over me.
Then I shall be blameless,
And I shall be innocent of [g]great transgression.
14 (K)Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
Be acceptable in Your sight,
O Lord, my [h]strength and my (L)Redeemer.

Les deux révélations de Dieu
19 Au chef de chœur ; cantique de David.
2 Tous les cieux proclament ╵combien Dieu ╵est glorieux,
l’étendue céleste ╵publie l’œuvre de ses mains.
3 Un jour en informe un autre,
une nuit à l’autre nuit ╵en transmet la connaissance.
4 Ce ne sont pas des paroles, ╵ce ne sont pas des discours,
ni des voix qu’on peut entendre[a].
5 Cependant, leur voix[b] parvient ╵à toute la terre,
et leurs accents aux confins du monde[c].
Là, Dieu a dressé ╵pour le soleil une tente.
6 Comme un jeune époux ╵sortant de sa chambre,
comme un guerrier qui s’avance ╵le soleil s’élance, ╵joyeux de prendre sa course.
7 D’une extrémité du ciel, ╵il surgit,
et son parcours se prolonge ╵jusqu’à l’autre extrémité ;
il n’est rien qui se dérobe ╵à l’ardeur de ses rayons.
8 La Loi de l’Eternel est parfaite, ╵elle nous redonne vie.
L’acte de l’alliance de l’Eternel ╵est digne de confiance, ╵et aux gens inexpérimentés ╵elle donne la sagesse.
9 Les décrets de l’Eternel sont justes ╵et ils font la joie du cœur ;
les commandements de l’Eternel ╵sont limpides ╵et ils donnent du discernement.
10 La crainte de l’Eternel est pure, ╵elle subsiste à jamais ;
les règles de droit ╵édictées par l’Eternel ╵sont justes toutes ensemble.
11 Elles sont plus désirables que de l’or, ╵que beaucoup d’or pur,
et plus savoureuses que le miel ╵le plus doux coulant des ruches.
12 Ton serviteur, Eternel, ╵en tire instruction :
à leur obéir, ╵on recueille un grand profit.
13 Qui peut discerner tous ses faux pas ?
Pardonne-moi les péchés ╵dont je n’ai pas conscience.
14 Garde aussi ton serviteur ╵des pensées d’orgueil :
qu’elles n’aient sur moi ╵pas la moindre emprise !
Alors je serai intègre, ╵innocent de grandes fautes.
15 Veuille agréer mes paroles,
et la méditation de mon cœur,
ô Eternel, mon Rocher, ╵mon Libérateur.

詩篇 19
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
上帝的作為和律法
大衛的詩，交給樂長。
19 諸天述說上帝的榮耀，
穹蒼傳揚祂的作為。
2 它們日復一日地訴說，
夜復一夜地宣揚，
3 無言無語，無聲無息。
4 它們的聲音傳遍天下，
它們的話語傳到地極。
上帝在天上為太陽設立居所。
5 太陽出來時，如步出洞房的新郎，
又如歡然奔跑賽程的健兒。
6 它滑過長空，
從天這邊繞到天那邊，
熱量廣及萬物。
7 耶和華的律法完美，
能更新生命；
耶和華的法度可靠，
讓愚人有智慧。
8 耶和華的法則公正，
使人充滿喜樂；
耶和華的命令純全，
讓人眼目明亮。
9 要以純潔的心敬畏耶和華，
直到永遠；
耶和華的法令可靠，
全然公義。
10 這些比純金還寶貴，
比蜂房的蜜更甘甜。
11 你僕人從中受到警戒，
遵守的人必得大賞賜。
12 誰能知道自己的過失呢？
求你赦免我心中隱藏的過錯。
13 求你攔阻我，
別讓我明知故犯，
別讓罪惡轄制我。
這樣，我才純全正直，
免犯大過。
14 耶和華——我的磐石、我的救贖主啊，
願你喜悅我口中的言語、心中的意念。

Psalm 19[a]
For the director of music. A psalm of David.
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)
making wise the simple.(S)
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.
