Psalms 104:19

19: You made the moon to mark the seasons and the sun that knows when to set.

And God said, "Let bright lights appear in the sky to separate the day from the night. They will be signs to mark off the seasons, the days, and the years.
Let their light shine down upon the earth." And so it was.
For God made two great lights, the sun and the moon, to shine down upon the earth. The greater one, the sun, presides during the day; the lesser one, the moon, presides through the night. He also made the stars.
God set these lights in the heavens to light the earth,
to govern the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.

It is the LORD who provides the sun to light the day and the moon and stars to light the night. It is he who stirs the sea into roaring waves. His name is the LORD Almighty, and this is what he says:

Give thanks to him who made the heavenly lights--His faithful love endures forever.
the sun to rule the day, His faithful love endures forever.
and the moon and stars to rule the night. His faithful love endures forever.

When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers--the moon and the stars you have set in place--

The sun rises at one end of the heavens and follows its course to the other end. Nothing can hide from its heat.

"Have you ever commanded the morning to appear and caused the dawn to rise in the east?

And when you look up into the sky and see the sun, moon, and stars--all the forces of heaven--don't be seduced by them and worship them. The LORD your God designated these heavenly bodies for all the peoples of the earth.

Have I looked at the sun shining in the skies, or the moon walking down its silver pathway,
and been secretly enticed in my heart to worship them?
If so, I should be punished by the judges, for it would mean I had denied the God of heaven.
