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

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.

¹⁶ The day is yours and the night is yours: you made the light and the sun.

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

⁵ Naming the light, Day, and the dark, Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.

²² While the earth goes on, seed time and the getting in of the grain, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, will not come to an end.

¹⁰ For every beast of the woodland is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills.

¹⁰ Even there will I be guided by your hand, and your right hand will keep me.

¹¹ If I say, Only let me be covered by the dark, and the light about me be night;

¹² Even the dark is not dark to you; the night is as bright as the day: for dark and light are the same to you.

¹³ These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because in Gilead they had women with child cut open, so that they might make wider the limits of their land.
