Psalms 19:1-6

1 The heavens tell about the glory of God. The skies show that his hands created them.
2 Day after day they speak about it. Night after night they make it known.
3 But they don't speak or use words. No sound is heard from them.
4 At the same time, their voice goes out into the whole earth. Their words go out from one end of the world to the other. God has set up a tent in the heavens for the sun.
5 The sun is like a groom coming out of the room where he spent his wedding night. The sun is like a great runner who takes delight in running a race.
6 It rises at one end of the heavens. Then it moves across to the other end. Nothing can hide from its heat.

Psalms 19:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

To the chief Musician, a Psalm of David. This psalm was penned by David, and inscribed to the chief musician, as others, to be used in public service, and was designed for Gospel times, as the subject of it shows; which is first, not an account of the light of nature, and then of the law of Moses, but of the Gospel of Christ; and especially as ministered in the times of the apostles, as a citation out of it in Romans 10:18, makes clear.
