Genesis 1:16-18
International Standard Version
16 God fashioned two great lights—the larger light to shine during[a] the day and the smaller light to shine during[b] the night—as well as stars. 17 God placed them in space[c] to shine on the earth, 18 to differentiate between[d] day and night, and to distinguish[e] light from darkness. And God saw how good it was.
