19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands. 2 Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. 3 Without speech or language, without a sound to be heard, 4 their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens He has pitched a tent for the sun. 5 Like a bridegroom emerging from his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course, 6 it rises at one end of the heavens and runs its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth. 7 The Law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the LORD is trustworthy, making wise the simple. 8 The precepts of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart; the commandments of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes. 9 The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever; the judgments of the LORD are true, being altogether righteous. 10 They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold; they are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb. 11 By them indeed Your servant is warned; in keeping them is great reward. 12 Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults. 13 Keep Your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless and cleansed of great transgression. 14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.

20:1 May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you. 2 May He send you help from the sanctuary and sustain you from Zion. 3 May He remember all your gifts and look favorably on your burnt offerings. Selah 4 May He give you the desires of your heart and make all your plans succeed. 5 May we shout for joy at your victory and raise a banner in the name of our God. May the LORD grant all your petitions. 6 Now I know that the LORD saves His anointed; He answers him from His holy heaven with the saving power of His right hand. 7 Some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God. 8 They collapse and fall, but we rise up and stand firm. 9 O LORD, save the king. Answer us on the day we call.

21:1 O LORD, the king rejoices in Your strength. How greatly he exults in Your salvation! 2 You have granted his heart’s desire and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah 3 For You welcomed him with rich blessings; You placed on his head a crown of pure gold. 4 He asked You for life, and You granted it— length of days, forever and ever. 5 Great is his glory in Your salvation; You bestow on him splendor and majesty. 6 For You grant him blessings forever; You cheer him with joy in Your presence. 7 For the king trusts in the LORD; through the loving devotion of the Most High, he will not be shaken. 8 Your hand will apprehend all Your enemies; Your right hand will seize those who hate You. 9 You will place them in a fiery furnace at the time of Your appearing. In His wrath the LORD will engulf them, and the fire will consume them. 10 You will wipe their descendants from the earth, and their offspring from the sons of men. 11 Though they intend You harm, the schemes they devise will not prevail. 12 For You will put them to flight when Your bow is trained upon them. 13 Be exalted, O LORD, in Your strength; we will sing and praise Your power.
