Read the chapter

1The heavens tell of the glory of God; And their expanse declares the work of His hands. ✦ 2Day to day pours forth speech, And night to night reveals knowledge. ✦ 3There is no speech, nor are there words; Their voice is not heard. ✦ 4Their line has gone out into all the earth, And their words to the end of the world. In them He has placed a tent for the sun, ✦ 5Which is like a groom coming out of his chamber; It rejoices like a strong person 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. ✦ 7¶The 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 pure gold; Sweeter also than honey and drippings of the honeycomb. ✦ 11Moreover, Your servant is warned by them; In keeping them there is great reward. ✦ 12Who can discern his errors? Acquit me of hidden faults. ✦ 13Also keep Your servant back from presumptuous sins; Let them not rule over me; Then I will be innocent, And I will be blameless of great wrongdoing. ✦ 14May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer. ✦

Christ at the center

The Psalms are Christ's own prayer book and a gallery of his portraits — the suffering one of Psalm 22, the risen Lord of Psalm 16, the priest-king of Psalm 110, the Son to whom the nations are given.

How Psalms 19 points to him is part of the one story that runs through all Scripture — meet Jesus at the heart of the web, or follow a trail that traces him from Genesis to Revelation.
