Sirach 43:7-9

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁷ From the moon comes the sign for festal days,
    a light that wanes when it completes its course.
⁸ The new moon, as its name suggests, renews itself;^[a]
    how marvellous it is in this change,
a beacon to the hosts on high,
    shining in the vault of the heavens!

⁹ The glory of the stars is the beauty of heaven,
    a glittering array in the heights of the Lord.
