Psalms 19:1-9

God’s splendor is a tale that is told, written in the stars. Space itself speaks his story through the marvels of the heavens. His truth is on tour in the starry vault of the sky, showing his skill in creation’s craftsmanship. Each day gushes out its message to the next, night by night whispering its knowledge to all— without a sound, without a word, without a voice being heard, yet all the world can hear its echo. Everywhere its message goes out. What a heavenly home God has set for the sun, shining in the superdome of the sky! See how he leaves his celestial chamber each morning, radiant as a bridegroom ready for his wedding, like a day-breaking champion eager to run his course. He rises on one horizon, completing his circuit on the other, warming lives and lands with his heat. YAHWEH’s Word is perfect in every way; how it revives our souls! YAHWEH’s laws lead us to truth, and his ways change the simple into wise. YAHWEH’s teachings are right and make us joyful; his precepts are so pure! YAHWEH’s commands challenge us to keep close to his heart! The revelation-light of his Word makes my spirit shine radiant. YAHWEH’s decrees are trustworthy. The fear of YAHWEH is pure, enduring forever.
