Psalm 19:1-6

Contemporary English Version

(A psalm by David for the music leader.)

The Wonders of God and the Goodness of His Law

¹The heavens keep telling
    the wonders of God,
and the skies declare
    what he has done.
²Each day informs
    the following day;
each night announces
    to the next.
³They don't speak a word,
and there is never
    the sound of a voice.
⁴^(A) Yet their message reaches
    all the earth,
and it travels
    around the world.

In the heavens a tent
    is set up for the sun.
⁵It rises like a bridegroom
and gets ready like a hero
    eager to run a race.
⁶It travels all the way
across the sky.
    Nothing hides from its heat.
