and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.

whose voice is not heard.

Their voice goes out through all the earth,

and their words to the end of the world.

In them he has set a tent for the sun,

which comes out like a bridegroom leaving his chamber,

and, like a strong man, runs its course with joy.

Its rising is from the end of the heavens,

and its circuit to the end of them,

and there is nothing hidden from its heat.

Where their voice is not heard.

And his circuit unto the ends of it:

And there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
