Yet from here to the ends of the earth, their voices[a] have gone out;
    the whole world can hear what they say.[b]

God stretched out in these heavens a tent for the sun,
And the sun is like a groom
    who, after leaving his room, arrives at the wedding in splendor;
He is the strong runner
    who, favored to win in his race, is eager to face his challenge.
He rises at one end of the skies
    and runs in an arc overhead;
    nothing can hide from his heat, from the swelter of his daily tread.

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)
    like a champion(F) rejoicing to run his course.
It rises at one end of the heavens(G)
    and makes its circuit to the other;(H)
    nothing is deprived of its warmth.
