Psalm 19 Summary

Psalm 19 praises God’s revelation in creation and in his word, ending with a prayer for blameless speech and thoughts.

‘The heavens declare the glory of God’—creation silently testifies to its Maker. Then the psalm turns to Scripture, ‘reviving the soul’ and ‘more precious than gold.’

David closes by asking God to keep him from sin: ‘May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight.’
