Genesis 1:16-19

16God made two great lights—the larger one to govern the day, and the smaller one to govern the night. He also made the stars.

17God set these lights in the sky to light the earth,

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

19And evening passed and morning came, marking the fourth day.
