3There is no speech, nor are there words;
         Their voice is not heard.

4Their line has gone out through all the earth,
         And their utterances to the end of the world.
         In them He has placed a tent for the sun,

5Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber;
         It rejoices as a strong man to run his course.

6Its rising is from one end of the heavens,
         And its circuit to the other end of them;
         And there is nothing hidden from its heat.

7The law of the LORD is perfect, restoring the soul;
         The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.

8The precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart;
         The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.

9The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever;
         The judgments of the LORD are true; they are righteous altogether.

10They are more desirable than gold, yes, than much fine gold;
         Sweeter also than honey and the drippings of the honeycomb.

11Moreover, by them Your servant is warned;
         In keeping them there is great reward.

12Who can discern his errors? Acquit me of hidden faults.

13Also keep back Your servant from presumptuous sins;
         Let them not rule over me;
         Then I will be blameless,
         And I shall be acquitted of great transgression.

14Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
         Be acceptable in Your sight,
         O LORD, my rock and my Redeemer.
