Who can discern his own errors? Cleanse me from my hidden faults.
David sets before us two mirrors of God's glory: first the heavens themselves with their exquisite order, then the Law in which God made Himself known to His chosen people. From this he moves to praise the Law at length before closing with prayer.

Commenting on Psalm 19:1-14
"Who can understand his errors?" A question which is its own answer. It rather requires a note of exclamation than of interrogation. By the law is the knowledge of sin, and in the presence of divine truth, the psalmist marvels at the number and heinousness of his sins.
God's glory, (that is, his goodness to man) appears much in the works of creation, but much more in and by divine revelation. The holy scripture, as it is a rule both of our duty to God and of our expectation from him, is of much greater use and benefit to us than day or night, than the air we breathe in, or the light of the sun.
