In the beginning, God created the
heavens and the earth. The earth
was without form and void, and
darkness was over the face of the
deep. And the Spirit of God was
hovering over the face of the
waters. And God said, “Let there
be light,” and there was light.
And God saw that the light was
good. And God separated the light
from the darkness. God called the
light Day, and the darkness he
called Night. And there was
evening and there was morning, the
first day. ...
(Genesis 1:1-31)
ESV
And God said, “Let there be lights
in the expanse of the heavens to
separate the day from the night.
And let them be for signs and for
seasons, and for days and years,
(Genesis 1:14)
ESV
At that time Joshua spoke to the
Lord in
the day when the
Lord gave the Amorites over
to the sons of Israel, and he said
in the sight of Israel, “Sun,
stand still at Gibeon, and moon,
in the Valley of Aijalon.” And the
sun stood still, and the moon
stopped, until the nation took
vengeance on their enemies. Is
this not written in the Book of
Jashar? The sun stopped in the
midst of heaven and did not hurry
to set for about a whole day.
There has been no day like it
before or since, when the
Lord
heeded the voice of a man, for the
Lord
fought for Israel.
(Joshua 10:12-14)
ESV
Who shakes the earth out of its
place, and its pillars tremble;
who commands the sun, and it does
not rise; who seals up the stars;
who alone stretched out the
heavens and trampled the waves of
the sea; who made the Bear and
Orion, the Pleiades and the
chambers of the south;
(Job 9:6-9)
ESV
He stretches out the north over
the void and hangs the earth on
nothing.
(Job 26:7)
ESV
“Can you bind the chains of the
Pleiades or loose the cords of
Orion? Can you lead forth the
Mazzaroth in their season, or can
you guide the Bear with its
children? Do you know the
ordinances of the heavens? Can you
establish their rule on the earth?
(Job 38:31-33)
ESV
When I look at your heavens, the
work of your fingers, the moon and
the stars, which you have set in
place,
(Psalm 8:3)
ESV
He set the earth on its
foundations, so that it should
never be moved.
(Psalm 104:5)
ESV
To him who by understanding made
the heavens, for his steadfast
love endures forever; to him who
spread out the earth above the
waters, for his steadfast love
endures forever; to him who made
the great lights, for his
steadfast love endures forever;
the sun to rule over the day, for
his steadfast love endures
forever; the moon and stars to
rule over the night, for his
steadfast love endures forever;
(Psalm 136:5-9)
ESV
The sun rises, and the sun goes
down, and hastens to the place
where it rises.
(Ecclesiastes 1:5)
ESV
For the stars of the heavens and
their constellations will not give
their light; the sun will be dark
at its rising, and the moon will
not shed its light.
(Isaiah 13:10)
ESV
It is he who sits above the circle
of the earth, and its inhabitants
are like grasshoppers; who
stretches out the heavens like a
curtain, and spreads them like a
tent to dwell in;
(Isaiah 40:22)
ESV
Lift up your eyes on high and see:
who created these? He who brings
out their host by number, calling
them all by name, by the greatness
of his might, and because he is
strong in power not one is
missing.
(Isaiah 40:26)
ESV
He who made the Pleiades and
Orion, and turns deep darkness
into the morning and darkens the
day into night, who calls for the
waters of the sea and pours them
out on the surface of the earth,
the Lord
is his name;
(Amos 5:8)
ESV
Immediately after the tribulation
of those days the sun will be
darkened, and the moon will not
give its light, and the stars will
fall from heaven, and the powers
of the heavens will be shaken.
(Matthew 24:29)
ESV
And I will show wonders in the
heavens above and signs on the
earth below, blood, and fire, and
vapor of smoke; The sun shall be
turned to darkness and the moon to
blood, before the day of the Lord
comes, the great and magnificent
day.
(Acts 2:19,20)
ESV
There is one glory of the sun, and
another glory of the moon, and
another glory of the stars; for
star differs from star in glory.
(1 Corinthians 15:41)
ESV
