8 The “month” is named after the moon,marvelous to watch as it grows fuller each night,a signal light for the heavenly armies,shining out in the dome of the sky.
9 The shining stars make the night sky lovely,brilliant ornaments in the Lord's high heavens.
10 They stay in the places assigned to them by the Holy Oneand never relax their dutiful watch.
11 Look at the rainbow and praise its Creator!How magnificent, how radiant, its beauty!
12 Like a bow bent by the hands of the Most High,it spans the horizon in a circle of glory.
13 He commands, and snow begins to fall;lightning strikes to carry out his judgments.
14 The storerooms of the sky are thrown open,and the clouds roll out like flying birds.
