³⁷ it will be established forever like the moon,
    the faithful witness in the sky.”^(A)

¹⁹ He made the moon to mark the seasons,^(A)
    and the sun^(B) knows when to go down.
²⁰ You bring darkness,^(C) it becomes night,^(D)
    and all the beasts of the forest^(E) prowl.
²¹ The lions roar for their prey^(F)
    and seek their food from God.^(G)
22 The sun rises, and they steal away;
    they return and lie down in their dens.^(H)
23 Then people go out to their work,^(I)
    to their labor until evening.^(J)

⁹ “To me this is like the days of Noah,
    when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth.^(A)
So now I have sworn^(B) not to be angry^(C) with you,
    never to rebuke^(D) you again.
¹⁰ Though the mountains be shaken^(E)
    and the hills be removed,
yet my unfailing love^(F) for you will not be shaken^(G)
    nor my covenant^(H) of peace^(I) be removed,”
    says the Lord, who has compassion^(J) on you.
