1 The heavenss declaret the glory of God;u

the skiesv proclaim the work of his hands.w

2 Day after day they pour forth speech;

night after night they reveal knowledge.x

3 They have no speech, they use no words;

no sound is heard from them.

4 Yet their voiceb goes out into all the earth,

their words to the ends of the world.y

In the heavens God has pitched a tentz for the sun.a

5 It is like a bridegroomb coming out of his chamber,c

like a championd rejoicing to run his course.

6 It rises at one end of the heavense

and makes its circuit to the other;f

nothing is deprived of its warmth.

7 The law of the Lordg is perfect,h

refreshing the soul.i

The statutes of the Lord are trustworthy,j

making wise the simple.k

8 The precepts of the Lord are right,l

giving joym to the heart.

The commands of the Lord are radiant,

giving light to the eyes.n

9 The fear of the Lordo is pure,

enduring forever.

The decrees of the Lord are firm,

and all of them are righteous.p
