  1. Psalm 19:5 as radiant as a bridegroom, literally, “like a bridegroom.” going to his wedding, implied; literally, “going forth from his chamber.”

Yet their voice[a] goes out into all the earth,
    their words to the ends of the world.(A)
In the heavens God has pitched a tent(B) for the sun.(C)
    It is like a bridegroom(D) coming out of his chamber,(E)

    and makes its circuit to the other;(H)
    nothing is deprived of its warmth.
