Psalm 19:1-6

Common English Bible

Psalm 19

For the music leader. A psalm of David.

19 Heaven is declaring God’s glory;
    the sky is proclaiming his handiwork.
²One day gushes the news to the next,
    and one night informs another what needs to be known.
³Of course, there’s no speech, no words—
        their voices can’t be heard—
⁴    but their sound^[a] extends throughout the world;
        their words reach the ends of the earth.

God has made a tent in heaven for the sun.
⁵The sun is like a groom
    coming out of his honeymoon suite;
    like a warrior, it thrills at running its course.
⁶It rises in one end of the sky;
    its circuit is complete at the other.
        Nothing escapes its heat.
