Sirach 43:9

9 The stars' glory is the sky's beauty, shining ornaments in the heights of the Lord.

Sirach 43:9 In-Context

7 The sign for a feast comes from the moon, a luminous body that wanes when it completes its course.

8 The new moon shares the character of its name, increasing wonderfully as it changes, a signal on high for armies, shining in the vault of the sky.

9 The stars' glory is the sky's beauty, shining ornaments in the heights of the Lord.

10 They stand at the words of the holy one, just as he orders, and they will never grow tired as they keep watch.

11 Look at the rainbow, exceedingly beautiful in its brightness, and bless the one who made it.
