The Works and the Word of God.
1 The heavens are telling of the glory of God;
And the expanse [of heaven] is declaring the work of His hands. [Rom 1:20, 21]
2 Day after day pours forth speech,
And night after night reveals knowledge.
3 There is no speech, nor are there [spoken] words [from the stars];
Their voice is not heard.
4 Yet their voice [in quiet evidence] has gone out through all the earth,
Their words to the end of the world.
In them and in the heavens He has made a tent for the sun, [Rom 10:18]
5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber;
It rejoices as a strong man to run his course.
6 The sun’s rising is from one end of the heavens,
And its circuit to the other end of them;
And there is nothing hidden from its heat.
7 The law of the Lord is perfect (flawless), restoring and refreshing the soul;
The statutes of the Lord are reliable and trustworthy, making wise the simple.
8 The precepts of the Lord are right, bringing joy to the heart;
The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.
