# speech pours out
|
|
|

What is beautiful about creation is compared to speaking, as if creation were a person. Then those words are compared to water that flows everywhere. AT: "creation is like a person speaking to everyone" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-personification]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# There is no speech or spoken words; their voice is not heard
|
|
|
|
These phrases express clearly that the first two verses were a metaphor. AT: "There is no real speech or spoken words; no one hears an actual voice with their ears"
|
|
|
|
# their voice is not heard
|
|
|
|
Other translations read "where their voice is not heard," emphasizing that creation's "speech" is available everywhere.
