In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,* 5 Which *is* as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, *and* rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race. 6 His going forth *is* from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof. 7 The law of the LORD *is* perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD *is* sure, making wise the simple.** 8 The statutes of the LORD *are* right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD *is* pure, enlightening the eyes. 9 The fear of the LORD *is* clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD *are* true *and* righteous altogether.* 10 More to be desired *are they* than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.* 11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: *and* in keeping of them *there is* great reward. 12 Who can understand *his* errors? cleanse thou me from secret *faults*. 13 Keep back thy servant also from presumptuous *sins;* let them not have dominion over me: then shall I be upright, and I shall be innocent from the great transgression.* 14 Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.* [Psalms 18](/study/psalms/18) [Psalms 20](/study/psalms/20) ## Commentary To verse 1 **The heavens declare the glory of God,**[Psalms 19:1](/kjv/psalms/19/1). So do night and day, [Psalms 19:2](/kjv/psalms/19/2),[Psalms 19:3](/kjv/psalms/19/3), and the sun, [Psalms 19:4-6](/kjv/psalms/19/4-6). The perfection, purity, and extent of God’s law; its effects, [Psalms 19:7-12](/kjv/psalms/19/7-12). He prayeth against presumptuous sins, [Psalms 19:13](/kjv/psalms/19/13). **The heavens;**these visible heavens, so vast and spacious, richly adorned with stars, so various and admirable in their course or station, so useful and powerful in their influences. **Declare;**not properly, but objectively, as *the earth*, and *trees*, and *stars* are said to speak, [Job 12:8](/kjv/job/12/8) 38:7; [Isaiah 55:12](/kjv/isaiah/55/12); they demonstrate or make it evident and undeniable to all men of sense or reason; they are as a most legible book, wherein even he that runs may read it. **The glory of God,**i.e. his glorious being or existence, *his eternal power and Godhead*, as it is particularly expressed, [Romans 1:20](/kjv/romans/1/20); his infinite wisdom and goodness; all which are so visible in them, that it is ridiculous to deny or doubt of them, as it is esteemed ridiculous to think of far meaner works of art, as a house or a book, &c., that they were made without an artist, or without a hand. **The firmament;**or, *the expansion*, i.e. all this vast space extended from the earth to the highest heavens, with all its goodly furniture, the same thing which he called *heavens.* **Showeth his handywork;**the excellency of the work discovers who was the author of it, that it did not come by chance, nor spring of itself, but was made by the Lord God Almighty. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com","name":"Real Bible Believers","description":"RBB","publisher":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/search?q={search_term_string}","query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/pooles-english-annotations-on-the-holy-bible/psalms/19#primaryimage","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/_app/immutable/assets/missing.C7wGMEZ6.jpg","contentUrl":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/_app/immutable/assets/missing.C7wGMEZ6.jpg","width":672,"height":448,"caption":"Real Bible Believers"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/pooles-english-annotations-on-the-holy-bible/psalms/19#webpage","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/pooles-english-annotations-on-the-holy-bible/psalms/19","name":"Psalms 19 - Study King James Bible with pooles english annotations on the holy bible","isPartOf":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/study/pooles-english-annotations-on-the-holy-bible/psalms/19#primaryimage"},"author":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"description":"Read Psalms 19 with pooles english annotations on the holy bible commentary. 1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
