Genesis 1:3-5
1:3 God said,
“Let there be
light.”
And there was light!
1:4 God saw
that the light was good,
so God separated
the light from the darkness.
1:5 God called
the light “day” and the darkness
“night.” There was evening, and there was morning, marking the first day.
Genesis 1:14-16
1:14 God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them be signs to indicate seasons and days and years,
1:15 and let them serve as lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth.” It was so.
1:16 God made two great lights – the greater light to rule over the day and the lesser light to rule over the night. He made the stars also.
