2Day after day they pour out speech, and night after night they display knowledge.

3There is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard.
3Without speech or language, without a sound to be heard,
4Their voice has gone out through all the earth, their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun,
4their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world. In the heavens He has pitched a tent for the sun.
5which is as a bridegroom coming out of his room, like a strong man rejoicing to run his course.
5Like a bridegroom emerging from his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course,
6His going out is from the end of the heavens, his circuit to its ends. There is nothing hidden from its heat.
6it rises at one end of the heavens and runs its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.
