1 To the chief Musician5329, A Psalm4210 of David1732. The heavens8064 declare5608 the glory3519 of God410; and the firmament7549 sheweth his5046 handywork4639 3027.

2 Day3117 unto day3117 uttereth5042 speech562, and night3915 unto night3915 sheweth2331 knowledge1847.

11 Moreover by them is thy servant5650 warned2094: and in keeping8104 of them there is great7227 reward6118.

12 Who can understand995 his errors7691? cleanse5352 thou me from secret5641 faults.

13 Keep back2820 thy servant5650 also from presumptuous2086 sins; let them not have dominion4910 over me: then shall I be upright8552, and I shall be innocent5352 from the great7227 transgression6588. the great: or, much
