and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.

The portion of Jacob is not like these; for he is the maker of all things; and Israel is the tribe of his inheritance: Yahweh of Armies is his name.

God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs to mark seasons, days, and years;

God set them in the expanse of the sky to give light to the earth,

The heavens, the earth, and all their vast array were finished.

You make darkness, and it is night, in which all the animals of the forest prowl.

Yahweh’s works are great, pondered by all those who delight in them.

The sun also rises, and the sun goes down, and hurries to its place where it rises.

I form the light and create darkness. I make peace and create calamity. I am Yahweh, who does all these things.

The houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, which are defiled, will be as the place of Topheth, even all the houses on whose roofs they have burned incense to all the army of the sky and have poured out drink offerings to other gods.” ’ ”

Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!

Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look at the earth beneath; for the heavens will vanish away like smoke, and the earth will wear out like a garment. Its inhabitants will die in the same way, but my salvation will be forever, and my righteousness will not be abolished.

They will spread them before the sun, the moon, and all the army of the sky, which they have loved, which they have served, after which they have walked, which they have sought, and which they have worshiped. They will not be gathered or be buried. They will be like dung on the surface of the earth.

You show loving kindness to thousands, and repay the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them. The great, the mighty God, Yahweh of Armies is your name:

“Yahweh says: ‘If you can break my covenant of the day and my covenant of the night, so that there will not be day and night in their time;

Yahweh says: “If my covenant of day and night fails, if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth;

Their Redeemer is strong: Yahweh of Armies is his name. He will thoroughly plead their cause, that he may give rest to the earth, and disquiet the inhabitants of Babylon.

God called the light “day”, and the darkness he called “night”. There was evening and there was morning, the first day.

Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, “This is God’s finger;” but Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he didn’t listen to them, as Yahweh had spoken.

and lest you lift up your eyes to the sky, and when you see the sun and the moon and the stars, even all the army of the sky, you are drawn away and worship them, and serve them, which Yahweh your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole sky.

These are the statutes and the ordinances which you shall observe to do in the land which Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has given you to possess all the days that you live on the earth.

certain wicked fellows have gone out from among you and have drawn away the inhabitants of their city, saying, “Let’s go and serve other gods,” which you have not known,

for the precious things of the fruits of the sun, for the precious things that the moon can yield,

“Are you the first man who was born? Or were you brought out before the hills?

“Isn’t God in the heights of heaven? See the height of the stars, how high they are!

Thick clouds are a covering to him, so that he doesn’t see. He walks on the vault of the sky.’

“Remember that you magnify his work, about which men have sung.

“Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if you have understanding.

“Have you commanded the morning in your days, and caused the dawn to know its place,

Surely you know, for you were born then, and the number of your days is great!

When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have ordained;

The heavens declare the glory of God. The expanse shows his handiwork.

It will be established forever like the moon, the faithful witness in the sky.”

If I take the wings of the dawn, and settle in the uttermost parts of the sea,

He counts the number of the stars. He calls them all by their names.

A bribe is a precious stone in the eyes of him who gives it; wherever he turns, he prospers.

Consider the work of God, for who can make that straight, which he has made crooked?

for they call themselves citizens of the holy city, and rely on the God of Israel; Yahweh of Armies is his name.

Yahweh, who gives the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, who stirs up the sea, so that its waves roar; Yahweh of Armies is his name, says:

that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust.

But if I by God’s finger cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come to you.

There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.
