¹ The heavens declare the glory of God,
and the expanse^(A) proclaims the work of his hands.^(B)
2 Day after day they pour out speech;
night after night they communicate knowledge.^[a]
3 There is no speech; there are no words;
their voice is not heard.
⁴ Their message^[b] has gone out to the whole earth,
and their words to the ends of the world.^(C)
In the heavens he has pitched a tent for the sun.^(D)
5 It is like a bridegroom coming from his home;
it rejoices like an athlete running a course.
⁶ It rises from one end of the heavens
and circles to their other end;^(E)
nothing is hidden from its heat.

⁷ The works of his hands are truth and justice;
all his instructions are trustworthy.^(A)
8 They are established forever and ever,
enacted in truth and in uprightness.^(B)
9 He has sent redemption to his people.^(C)
He has ordained his covenant forever.
His name is holy and awe-inspiring.^(D)
