The argument of the .xix. psalme.
Gods glorie wherby he may be knowen, appeareth sufficiently in all his workes,
in heauen, ayre, and earth: but especially to his children in his holy worde, which
therfore ought to be of more value and commendation then all other worldly
thynges. Upon consideration hereof, Dauid confesseth his secrete and presumptuous
sinnes, he craueth pardon and mercie at Gods handes.
¶2; To the chiefe musition, a psalme of Dauid.
A
1 noteThe heauens declare
the glorie of
God: and the firmament
sheweth
his handy worke.
2 A day occasioneth
talke therof vnto
a day: and a night
teacheth knoweledge
vnto a nyght.
3 No language, no wordes, no voyce of
theirs is hearde: yet their note sounde
goeth into all landes, and their wordes
into the endes of the worlde.
4 In them he hath set a tabernacle for
the sunne: which commeth foorth as a
bridegrome out of his chamber, and reioyceth
as a giaunt to runne his course.
5 His settyng foorth is from the vtmost
part of heauen, and his circuite vnto the
vtmost part therof: and there is nothing
hyd from his heat.
6 The lawe of God is perfect, conuerting
the soule: the testimonie of God is note sure,
and geueth wisdome vnto the simple.
B
7 The statutes of God are right, and
reioyce the heart: the commaundement
of God is pure, and geueth light vnto
the eyes.
8 The feare of God is sincere, ∧ endureth
for euer: the iudgementes of God are
trueth, they be iust in all poyntes.
9 They are more to be desired then
golde, yea then much fine golde: they are
also sweeter then hony and the hony
combe.
10 Moreouer, by them thy seruaunt is well
aduertised: and in kepyng of them there
is a great note rewarde.
11 Who can knowe his owne note errours?
Oh cleanse thou me from those that I
am not priuie of.
12 Kepe thy seruaunt also from note presumptuous
[sinnes] let them not raigne
ouer me: so I shall be perfect ∧ voyde
from all haynous offence.
13 Let the wordes of my mouth, and the
meditation of my heart be acceptable in
thy sight O God: my strength and my
redeemer.
