¹⁹ Which is the way to the resting-place of the light, and where is the store-house of the dark;

³ And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

⁴ And God, looking on the light, saw that it was good: and God made a division between the light and the dark,

⁹ The true light, which gives light to every man, was then coming into the world.

⁴⁵ Now from the sixth hour it was dark over all the land till the ninth hour.

¹³ For see, he who gave form to the mountains and made the wind, giving knowledge of his purpose to man, who makes the morning dark, and is walking on the high places of the earth: the Lord, the God of armies, is his name.

⁸ All the bright lights of heaven I will make dark over you, and put dark night on your land, says the Lord.

¹⁶ Give glory to the Lord your God, before he makes it dark, and before your feet are slipping on the dark mountains, and, while you are looking for a light, he makes it into deep dark, into black night.

⁷ I am the giver of light and the maker of the dark; causing blessing, and sending troubles; I am the Lord, who does all these things.

²⁸ He sent black night and made it dark; and they did not go against his word.

²⁰ When you make it dark, it is night, when all the beasts of the woods come quietly out of their secret places.

¹¹ He made the dark his secret place; his tent round him was the dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.

¹² Have you, from your earliest days, given orders to the morning, or made the dawn conscious of its place;

¹³ So that it might take a grip of the skirts of the earth, shaking all the evil-doers out of it?

¹⁹ And when your eyes are lifted up to heaven, and you see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the army of heaven, do not let yourselves be moved to give them worship, or become the servants of what the Lord has given equally to all peoples under heaven.

¹⁴ And God said, Let there be lights in the arch of heaven, for a division between the day and the night, and let them be for signs, and for marking the changes of the year, and for days and for years:

¹⁵ And let them be for lights in the arch of heaven to give light on the earth: and it was so.

¹⁶ And God made the two great lights: the greater light to be the ruler of the day, and the smaller light to be the ruler of the night: and he made the stars.

¹⁷ And God put them in the arch of heaven, to give light on the earth;

¹⁸ To have rule over the day and the night, and for a division between the light and the dark: and God saw that it was good.

¹² Then again Jesus said to them, I am the light of the world; he who comes with me will not be walking in the dark but will have the light of life.
