14And GodH430 saidH559, “Let there beH1961 lightsH3974 in the expanseH7549 of the skyH8064 to distinguishH914 betweenH996 the dayH3117 andH996 the nightH3915, and let them beH1961 signs to markH226 the seasonsH4150 and daysH3117 and yearsH8141. 15And let them serveH1961 as lightsH3974 in the expanseH7549 of the skyH8064 to shineH215 uponH5921 the earthH776.” And it wasH1961 soH3651.

16GodH430 madeH6213 twoH8147 greatH1419 lightsH3974: the greaterH1419 lightH3974 to ruleH4475 the dayH3117 andH853 the lesserH6996 lightH3974 to ruleH4475 the nightH3915. AndH853 He made the stars as wellH3556.
