19:1 （大衛的詩，交與伶長。）諸天述說上帝的榮耀；穹蒼傳揚他的手段。
19:2 這日到那日發出言語；這夜到那夜傳出知識。
19:3 無言無語，也無聲音可聽。
19:4 它的量帶通遍天下，它的言語傳到地極。上帝在其間為太陽安設帳幕；
19:5 太陽如同新郎出洞房，又如勇士歡然奔路。
19:6 它從天這邊出來，繞到天那邊，沒有一物被隱藏不得它的熱氣。

For the director of music. A psalm of David.
1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they reveal knowledge.
3 They have no speech, they use no words;
no sound is heard from them.
4 Yet their voice[b] 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 is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
like a champion rejoicing to run his course.
6 It rises at one end of the heavens
and makes its circuit to the other;
nothing is deprived of its warmth.
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they reveal knowledge.

In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun.
5 It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
like a champion rejoicing to run his course.
6 It rises at one end of the heavens
and makes its circuit to the other;
nothing is deprived of its warmth.

大衛藉由宇宙萬象的偉大來說明上帝的權能，表示上帝是這宇宙的創造者，而不像外邦的神明，是由宇宙醞釀而成。就像華人崇拜的神明，幾乎是被造之神，而非造物之上帝！
上帝不僅是造物，更是保護管理之上帝，藉由所造的宇宙向人彰顯自己，使人認清上帝是實實在在的，正如羅馬書1章20節所說：「自從造天地以來，上帝的永能和神性是明明可知的，雖是眼不能見，但藉著所造之物就可以曉得，叫人無可推諉。」
既然如此，我們一定要將上帝該有的榮耀歸給祂，因為我們受造的目的，也就是要彰顯上帝的榮耀，尊崇造我們的主！雖然始祖犯罪，使我們與上帝遠離，但是上帝卻透過獨生愛子耶穌基督拯救我們，使我們享受永生之福！
