Psalms 18:5-14

⁵Their sound hath gone forth into all the earth: and their words unto the ends of the world.

⁶He hath set his tabernacle in the sun: and he, as a bridegroom coming out of his bride chamber, Hath rejoiced as a giant to run the way:

⁷His going out is from the end of heaven, And his circuit even to the end thereof: and there is no one that can hide himself from his heat.

⁸The law of the Lord is unspotted, converting souls: the testimony of the Lord is faithful, giving wisdom to little ones.

⁹The justices of the Lord are right, rejoicing hearts: the commandment of the Lord is lightsome, enlightening the eyes.

¹⁰The fear of the Lord is holy, enduring for ever and ever: the judgments of the Lord are true, justified in themselves.

¹¹More to be desired than gold and many precious stones: and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb.

¹²For thy servant keepeth them, and in keeping them there is a great reward.

¹³Who can understand sins? from my secret ones cleanse me, O Lord:

¹⁴And from those of others spare thy servant. If they shall have no dominion over me, then shall I be without spot: and I shall be cleansed from the greatest sin.
