Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.
3 No speech or words are used, no sound is heard;
3
They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them.
4 yet their message goes out to all the world and is heard to the ends of the earth. God made a home in the sky for the sun;
4
Yet their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun.
5 it comes out in the morning like a happy bridegroom, like an athlete eager to run a race.
5
It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course.
6 It starts at one end of the sky and goes across to the other. Nothing can hide from its heat.
6
It rises at one end of the heavens and makes its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.
