ગુજરાતીઉત્પત્તિ ૧:૧૬
ઈશ્વરે જ્યોતિ આપવા માટે બે મોટી પ્રકાશ બનાવી. દિવસ પર અમલ ચલાવનારી એક મોટી પ્રકાશ અને રાત પર અમલ ચલાવનારી તેનાથી નાની એક પ્રકાશ બનાવી. તેમણે તારાઓ પણ બનાવ્યા.
हिन्दीउत्पत्ति १:१६
तब परमेश्वर ने दो बड़ी ज्योतियाँ बनाईं; उनमें से बड़ी ज्योति को दिन पर प्रभुता करने के लिये, और छोटी ज्योति को रात पर प्रभुता करने के लिये बनाया; और तारागण को भी बनाया।

In context

14God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs to mark seasons, days, and years;

15and let them be for lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth;” and it was so.

16God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He also made the stars.

17God set them in the expanse of the sky to give light to the earth,

18and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.
