And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God sawe the lyghte that it was good: and devyded the lyghte from the darcknesse
And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 and called the lyghte daye and the darcknesse nyghte: and so of the evenynge and mornynge was made the fyrst daye

15 And let them be lyghtes in the fyrmament of heave to shyne vpon the erth. and so it was.
And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
