Psalm 18 (1–6)

The heavens shew forth the glory of God, and the firmament declareth the work of his hands.

Day to day uttereth speech, and night to night sheweth knowledge.

There are no speeches nor languages, where their voices are not heard.

Their sound hath gone forth into all the earth: and their words unto the ends of the world.

He hath set his tabernacle in the sun: and he, as a bridegroom coming out of his bride chamber, hath rejoiced as a giant to run the way.

His going out is from the end of heaven, and his circuit even to the end thereof: and there is no one that can hide himself from his heat.

Cæli enárrant glóriam Dei, et ópera mánuum eius annúntiat firmaméntum.

Dies diéi erúctat verbum, et nox nocti índicat sciéntiam.

Non sunt loquélæ, neque sermónes, quorum non audiántur voces eórum.

In omnem terram exívit sonus eórum: et in fines orbis terræ verba eórum.

In sole pósuit tabernáculum suum.

Et ipse tamquam sponsus procédens de thálamo suo.

Exsultávit ut gigas ad curréndam viam.

A summo cælo egréssio eius: et occúrsus eius usque ad summum eius.

Nec est qui se abscóndat a calóre eius.
