191 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
191 The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above
191 God's glory is on tour in the skies, God-craft on exhibit across the horizon.
191 To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork.
191 The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship.
3 They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them.
3 There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
3 There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard.
3 Their words aren't heard, their voices aren't recorded,
3 There is no speech nor language Where their voice is not heard.
3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard.
(Read Psalm 19:1-6)
The heavens so declare the glory of God, and proclaim his wisdom, power, and goodness, that all ungodly men are left without excuse. They speak themselves to be works of God's hands; for they must have a Creator who is eternal, infinitely wise, powerful, and good. The counter-changing of day and night is a great proof of the power of God, and calls us to observe, that, as in the kingdom of nature, so in that of providence, he forms the light, and creates the darkness, Isaiah 45:7, and sets the one against the other. The sun in the firmament is an emblem of the Sun of righteousness, the Bridegroom of the church, and the Light of the world, diffusing Divine light and salvation by his gospel to the nations of the earth. He delights to bless his church, which he has espoused to himself; and his course will be unwearied as that of the sun, till the whole earth is filled with his light and salvation. Let us pray for the time when he shall enlighten, cheer, and make fruitful every nation on earth, with the blessed salvation. They have no speech or language, so some read it, and yet their voice is heard. All people may hear these preachers speak in their own tongue the wonderful works of God. Let us give God the glory of all the comfort and benefit we have by the lights of heaven, still looking above and beyond them to the Sun of righteousness.
