The Heavens Declare and the Law Revives
The psalm moves from creation’s universal declaration of God’s glory, to the sun’s joyful circuit under God’s ordering, to the perfection and sweetness of the LORD’s instruction, and finally to David’s prayer that God would cleanse hidden faults, restrain willful sins, and make his words and meditation acceptable.
Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources
12Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults.
13Keep Your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Then I will be blameless and cleansed of great transgression.
14May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.
