18 Bible Verses about Sun Moon And Stars Before God

God made the two great lights—the greater light to have dominion over the day and the lesser light to have dominion over the night—as well as the stars.

Then God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night. They will serve as signs for festivals and for days and years.

They will be lights in the expanse of the sky to provide light on the earth.” And it was so.

This is what the Lord says:

The One who gives the sun for light by day,
the fixed order of moon and stars for light by night,
who stirs up the sea and makes its waves roar—
Yahweh of Hosts is His name:

The day is Yours, also the night;
You established the moon and the sun.

He made the moon to mark the festivals;
the sun knows when to set.

Then God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night. They will serve as signs for festivals and for days and years. They will be lights in the expanse of the sky to provide light on the earth.” And it was so. God made the two great lights—the greater light to have dominion over the day and the lesser light to have dominion over the night—as well as the stars.

He made the great lights:
        His love is eternal.
the sun to rule by day,
        His love is eternal.
the moon and stars to rule by night.
        His love is eternal.

The One who made the Pleiades and Orion,
who turns darkness into dawn
and darkens day into night,
who summons the waters of the sea
and pours them out over the face of the earth—
Yahweh is His name.

He makes the stars: the Bear, Orion,
the Pleiades, and the constellations of the southern sky.

while the morning stars sang together
and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

When I observe Your heavens,
the work of Your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which You set in place,

Their message has gone out to all the earth,
and their words to the ends of the world.

In the heavens He has pitched a tent for the sun.

If even the moon does not shine
and the stars are not pure in His sight,

Praise Him, sun and moon;
praise Him, all you shining stars.

You alone are Yahweh.
You created the heavens,
the highest heavens with all their host,
the earth and all that is on it,
the seas and all that is in them.
You give life to all of them,
and the heavenly host worships You.

May he continue while the sun endures
and as long as the moon, throughout all generations.

May the righteous flourish in his days
and prosperity abound
until the moon is no more.
