1Εἰς τὸ τέλος· ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυιδ. The Lord, the Sun of Righteousness. Psalm 19(v18)[To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.]לַמְנַצֵּחַ מִזְמֹור לְדָוִד׃ 1
2Οἱ οὐρανοὶ διηγοῦνται δόξαν θεοῦ,
ποίησιν δὲ χειρῶν αὐτοῦ ἀναγγέλλει τὸ στερέωμα·
 The heavens are telling the glory of God;
and the firmament proclaims his handiwork.
הַשָּׁמַיִם מְסַפְּרִים כְּבֹוד־אֵל וּמַעֲשֵׂה יָדָיו מַגִּיד הָרָקִיעַ׃ 2
3ἡμέρα τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐρεύγεται ῥῆμα,
καὶ νὺξ νυκτὶ ἀναγγέλλει γνῶσιν.
 Day to day pours forth speech,
and night to night declares knowledge.
יֹום לְיֹום יַבִּיעַ אֹמֶר וְלַיְלָה לְּלַיְלָה יְחַוֶּה־דָּעַת׃ 3
4οὐκ εἰσὶν λαλιαὶ οὐδὲ λόγοι ὧν οὐχὶ ἀκούονται αἱ φωναὶ αὐτῶν·
 There is no speech, nor are there words;
their voice is not heard;
אֵין־אֹמֶר וְאֵין דְּבָרִים בְּלִי נִשְׁמָע קֹולָם׃ 4
5εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἐξῆλθεν ὁ φθόγγος αὐτῶν,
καὶ εἰς τὰ πέρατα τῆς οἰκουμένης τὰ ῥήματα αὐτῶν.
ἐν τῷ ἡλίῳ ἔθετο τὸ σκήνωμα αὐτοῦ·
 yet their voice goes out through all the earth,
and their words to the end of the world.

In them he has set a tent for the sun,

בְּכָל־הָאָרֶץ יָצָא קַוָּם וּבִקְצֵה תֵבֵל מִלֵּיהֶם
לַשֶּׁמֶשׁ שָׂם־אֹהֶל בָּהֶם׃
5
6καὶ αὐτὸς ὡς νυμφίος ἐκπορευόμενος ἐκ παστοῦ αὐτοῦ,
ἀγαλλιάσεται ὡς γίγας δραμεῖν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ.
 which comes forth like a bridegroom leaving his chamber,
and like a strong man runs its course with joy.
וְהוּא כְּחָתָן יֹצֵא מֵחֻפָּתֹו יָשִׂישׂ כְּגִבֹּור לָרוּץ אֹרַח׃ 6
7ἀπ' ἄκρου τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἡ ἔξοδος αὐτοῦ,
καὶ τὸ κατάντημα αὐτοῦ ἕως ἄκρου τοῦ οὐρανοῦ,
καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ὃς ἀποκρυβήσεται τὴν θέρμην αὐτοῦ.
 Its rising is from the end of the heavens,
and its circuit to the end of them;
and there is nothing hid from its heat.
מִקְצֵה הַשָּׁמַיִם מֹוצָאֹו וּתְקוּפָתֹו עַל־קְצֹותָם
וְאֵין נִסְתָּר מֵחַמָּתֹו׃
7
8ὁ νόμος τοῦ κυρίου ἄμωμος, ἐπιστρέφων ψυχάς·
ἡ μαρτυρία κυρίου πιστή, σοφίζουσα νήπια·
 The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul;
the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple;
תֹּורַת יְהוָה תְּמִימָה מְשִׁיבַת נָפֶשׁ
עֵדוּת יְהוָה נֶאֱמָנָה מַחְכִּימַת פֶּתִי׃
8
9τὰ δικαιώματα κυρίου εὐθεῖα, εὐφραίνοντα καρδίαν·
ἡ ἐντολὴ κυρίου τηλαυγής, φωτίζουσα ὀφθαλμούς·
 the precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart;
the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes;
פִּקּוּדֵי יְהוָה יְשָׁרִים מְשַׂמְּחֵי־לֵב
מִצְוַת יְהוָה בָּרָה מְאִירַת עֵינָיִם׃
9
10ὁ φόβος κυρίου ἁγνός, διαμένων εἰς αἰῶνα αἰῶνος·
τὰ κρίματα κυρίου ἀληθινά, δεδικαιωμένα ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό,
 the fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever;
the ordinances of the LORD are true, and righteous altogether.
יִרְאַת יְהוָה טְהֹורָה עֹומֶדֶת לָעַד
מִשְׁפְּטֵי־יְהוָה אֱמֶת צָדְקוּ יַחְדָּו׃
10
11ἐπιθυμητὰ ὑπὲρ χρυσίον καὶ λίθον τίμιον
πολὺν καὶ γλυκύτερα ὑπὲρ μέλι καὶ κηρίον.
 More to be desired are they than gold, even much fine gold;
sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb.
הַנֶּחֱמָדִים מִזָּהָב וּמִפַּז רָב
וּמְתוּקִים מִדְּבַשׁ וְנֹפֶת צוּפִים׃
11
12καὶ γὰρ ὁ δοῦλός σου φυλάσσει αὐτά·
ἐν τῷ φυλάσσειν αὐτὰ ἀνταπόδοσις πολλή.
 Moreover by them is thy servant warned;
in keeping them there is great reward.
גַּם־עַבְדְּךָ נִזְהָר בָּהֶם בְּשָׁמְרָם עֵקֶב רָב׃ 12
13παραπτώματα τίς συνήσει;
ἐκ τῶν κρυφίων μου καθάρισόν με.
 But who can discern his errors?
Clear thou me from hidden faults.
שְׁגִיאֹות מִי־יָבִין מִנִּסְתָּרֹות נַקֵּנִי׃ 13
14καὶ ἀπὸ ἀλλοτρίων φεῖσαι τοῦ δούλου σου·
ἐὰν μή μου κατακυριεύσωσιν, τότε ἄμωμος ἔσομαι
καὶ καθαρισθήσομαι ἀπὸ ἁμαρτίας μεγάλης.
 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous sins;
let them not have dominion over me!
Then I shall be blameless,
and innocent of great transgression.
גַּם מִזֵּדִים חֲשֹׂךְ עַבְדֶּךָ אַל־יִמְשְׁלוּ־בִי
אָז אֵיתָם וְנִקֵּיתִי מִפֶּשַׁע רָב׃
14
15καὶ ἔσονται εἰς εὐδοκίαν τὰ λόγια τοῦ στόματός μου
καὶ ἡ μελέτη τῆς καρδίας μου ἐνώπιόν σου διὰ παντός,
Κύριε, βοηθέ μου καὶ λυτρωτά μου.
 Let the words of my mouth
and the meditation of my heart
be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD,
my rock and my redeemer.
יִהְיוּ לְרָצֹון אִמְרֵי־פִי וְהֶגְיֹון לִבִּי לְפָנֶיךָ יְהוָה צוּרִי וְגֹאֲלִי׃ 15
