Psalms 19:5

Like a bridegroom it emerges ¹  from its chamber; ²  like a strong man it enjoys ³  running its course. ⁴ 

which is like a bridegroom coming forth from his pavilion, like a champion rejoicing to run his course.

Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber; It rejoices as a strong man to run his course.

It bursts forth like a radiant bridegroom after his wedding. It rejoices like a great athlete eager to run the race.

The morning sun's a new husband leaping from his honeymoon bed, The daybreaking sun an athlete racing to the tape.

Who is like a newly married man coming from his bride-tent, and is glad like a strong runner starting on his way.

which comes out like a bridegroom from his wedding canopy, and like a strong man runs its course with joy.

Which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, And rejoices like a strong man to run its race.

Like a bridegroom it emerges ¹  from its chamber; ²  like a strong man it enjoys ³  running its course. ⁴ 

¹ tn The participle expresses the repeated or regular nature of the action.

² tn The Hebrew noun חֻפָּה (khufah, “chamber”) occurs elsewhere only in Isa 4:5 and Joel 2:16 (where it refers to the bedroom of a bride and groom).

sn Like a bridegroom. The metaphor likens the sun to a bridegroom who rejoices on his wedding night.

³ tn The imperfect verbal form draws attention to the regularity of the action.

⁴ tn Heb “[on] a path.”

sn Like a strong man. The metaphorical language reflects the brilliance of the sunrise, which attests to the sun’s vigor.
