You have made the moon to mark the seasons; the sun knows the time of its setting. You establish darkness, and it is night, wherein the forest creatures prowl around.

Young lions roar for their prey, and call out to God for their meat. As the sun rises, they will come together, and lay themselves down in their dens.

Man will go out to his labor, and work until eventide. How great are your works, O Lord! In wisdom you have wrought them all.
