Amos 4:5
To many Protestant and Evangelical Italians, the Bibles translated by Giovanni Diodati are an important part of their history. Diodati’s first Italian Bible edition was printed in 1607, and his second in 1641. He died in 1649. Throughout the 1800s two editions of Diodati’s text were printed by the British Foreign Bible Society. This is the more recent 1894 edition, translated by Claudiana.
Word
'Word,' as in Isaiah 9:8, signifies the doctrine of internal and external worship. 'Word,' as in Psalms 119:6-17, stands for doctrine in general.
'The Word,' as in Psalms 147:18, signifies divine good united with divine truth.
The whole Word is nothing but the doctrine of love towards the Lord, and love towards our neighbor, as in Matthew 22.

Psalms 19
1
The heavens declare the glory of God. The expanse shows his handiwork.
2
Day after Day they pour forth speech, and night after night they display knowledge.
3
There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
4
Their voice has gone out through all the earth, their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun,
5
which is as a bridegroom coming out of his room, like a strong man rejoicing to run his course.
6
His going forth is from the end of the heavens, his circuit to its ends; There is nothing hidden from its heat.
7
Yahweh's law is perfect, restoring the soul. Yahweh's testimony is sure, making wise the simple.
8
Yahweh's precepts are right, rejoicing the heart. Yahweh's commandment is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9
The fear of Yahweh is clean, enduring forever. Yahweh's ordinances are true, and righteous altogether.
10
More to be desired are they than gold, yes, than much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and the extract of the honeycomb.
11
Moreover by them is your servant warned. In keeping them there is great reward.
12
Who can discern his errors? Forgive me from hidden errors.
13
Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins. Let them not have dominion over me. Then I will be upright. I will be blameless and innocent of great transgression.
14
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, Yahweh, my rock, and my redeemer. For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.
