Genesis 1:16-19

16And God made the two great lights—the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night—and the stars.

17And God set them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth,

18to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.

19And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day.
