Psalm 19:2-6

Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge. They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet their voice 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. It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course. It rises at one end of the heavens and makes its circuit to the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth. 

night after night they reveal knowledge 
Psalm 74:16  The day is yours, and yours also the night; you established the sun and moon.

their words to the ends of the world 
Romans 10:18  But I ask: Did they (the Israelites) not hear? Of course they did: "Their voice has gone out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world." (Psalm 19:4)

In the heavens God has pitched a tent 
Job 36:29  "Who can understand how he spreads out the clouds, how he thunders from his pavilion?"
Psalm 104:2  The LORD wraps himself in light as with a garment; he stretches out the heavens like a tent ...

for the sun 
Judges 5:31  "So may all your enemies perish, LORD! But may all who love you be like the sun when it rises in its strength." Then the land had peace forty years.

It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber 
Joel 2:16  Gather the people, consecrate the assembly; bring together the elders, gather the children, those nursing at the breast. Let the bridegroom leave his room and the bride her chamber.

like a champion rejoicing to run his course 
1 Samuel 17:4  A champion named Goliath, who was from Gath, came out of the Philistine camp. His height was six cubits and a span. (about 9 feet 9 inches) 

It rises from one end of the heavens 
Deuteronomy 30:4  Even if you have been banished to the most distant land under the heavens, from there the LORD your God will gather you and bring you back.

and makes its circuit to the other 
Psalm 113:3  From the rising of the sun to the places where it sets, the name of the LORD is to be praised. 
Ecclesiastes 1:5  The sun rises and the sun sets, and hurries back to where it rises.
