¹² "Have you commanded the morning in your days, And caused the dawn to know its place;

¹⁶ The day is yours, the night is also yours. You have prepared the light and the sun.

¹⁹ We have the more sure word of prophecy; whereunto you do well that you take heed, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns, and the day star arises in your hearts:

⁷⁸ Because of the tender mercy of our God, Whereby the dawn from on high will visit us,

³ Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!

⁴ Praise him, you heavens of heavens, You waters that are above the heavens.

⁵ Let them praise the name of Yahweh, For he commanded, and they were created.

⁷ To him who made the great lights; For his loving kindness endures forever:

⁸ The sun to rule by day; For his loving kindness endures forever;

²¹ Surely you know, for you were born then, And the number of your days is great!

⁴ "Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Declare, if you have understanding.

⁷ "Are you the first man who was born? Or were you brought forth before the hills?

⁹ (For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, Because our days on earth are a shadow.)

⁵ God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. There was evening and there was morning, one day.
