New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (nwt, en_US, 2013)

To the director. A melody of David.

¹ The heavens are declaring the glory of God; The skies above^*1 proclaim the work of his hands.

² Day after day their speech bubbles forth, And night after night they reveal knowledge.

³ There is no speech, and there are no words; Their voice is not heard.

⁴ But into all the earth their sound^*1 has gone out, And to the ends of the inhabited earth^*2 their message. In the heavens he has pitched a tent for the sun;

⁵ It is like a bridegroom emerging from the bridal chamber; It rejoices like a mighty man running his course.

⁶ It emerges from one end of the heavens, And it circles to their other end; And nothing is concealed from its heat.

⁷ The law of Jehovah is perfect, restoring strength.^*1 The reminder of Jehovah is trustworthy, making the inexperienced one wise.

⁸ The orders from Jehovah are righteous, causing the heart to rejoice; The commandment of Jehovah is clean, making the eyes shine.

⁹ The fear of Jehovah is pure, lasting forever. The judgments of Jehovah are true, altogether righteous.

¹⁰ They are more desirable than gold, Than much fine^*1 gold, And sweeter than honey, the honey that drips from the combs.

¹¹ By them your servant has been warned; In keeping them, there is a large reward.

¹² Who can discern mistakes? Pronounce me innocent from sins I am unaware of.

¹³ And hold your servant back from presumptuous acts; Do not let them dominate me. Then I will be complete, And innocent of blatant sins.^*1

¹⁴ May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be pleasing to you, O Jehovah, my Rock and my Redeemer.
