Creation Sings of God's Goodness
Commentators explain that the verse paints a vivid picture of a world overflowing with God's provision. The pastures 'clothed' with flocks and valleys 'covered' with grain are so abundant they seem to shout and sing for joy. This joyful scene is a powerful, visible testament to God's goodness, making it, as Albert Barnes notes, 'strange that there should be an atheist in such a world as this.'
