Salmos 19— comparação

1Os céus declaram a glória de Deus.

2Dia após dia eles jorram palavras,

3Não há fala nem linguagem

4A voz deles saiu por toda a terra,

5que é como um noivo saindo do seu aposento,

6A sua saída é desde a extremidade dos céus,

7A lei do SENHOR é perfeita, que restaura a alma.

8Os preceitos do SENHOR são retos, que alegram o coração.

9O temor do SENHOR é limpo, que dura para sempre.

10São mais desejáveis do que o ouro, sim, do que muito ouro puro,

11Além disso, por eles o seu servo é advertido.

12Quem pode discernir os próprios erros?

13Guarde também o seu servo dos pecados presunçosos.

14Que as palavras da minha boca e a meditação do meu coração

1The heavens declare the glory of God. The expanse shows his handiwork.

2Day after day they pour out speech, and night after night they display knowledge.

3There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard.

4Their voice has gone out through all the earth, their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun,

5which is as a bridegroom coming out of his room, like a strong man rejoicing to run his course.

6His going out is from the end of the heavens, his circuit to its ends. There is nothing hidden from its heat.

7Yahweh’s law is perfect, restoring the soul. Yahweh’s covenant is sure, making wise the simple.

8Yahweh’s precepts are right, rejoicing the heart. Yahweh’s commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes.

9The fear of Yahweh is clean, enduring forever. Yahweh’s ordinances are true, and righteous altogether.

10They are more to be desired than gold, yes, than much fine gold, sweeter also than honey and the extract of the honeycomb.

11Moreover your servant is warned by them. In keeping them there is great reward.

12Who can discern his errors? Forgive me from hidden errors.

13Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins. Let them not have dominion over me. Then I will be upright. I will be blameless and innocent of great transgression.

14Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, Yahweh, my rock, and my redeemer.
