Genesis 1 (Septuagint)

• 1:14 And God said, "Let light-givers come to be in the firmament of the sky for shining on the land, and to rule the day and the night, and to part between the day and between the night; and let them be for signs and for kairoi and for days and for twelvemonths;
• 1:15 and let them be for shining in the firmament of the sky, so as to shine on the land." And it came to be thus.
