Sirach 43:8-10
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
8 The new moon, as its name suggests, renews itself;[a]
how marvelous it is in this change,
a beacon to the hosts on high
shining in the vault of the heavens!
The Glory of the Stars and the Rainbow
9 The glory of the stars is the beauty of heaven,
a glittering array in the heights of the Lord.(A)
10 On the orders of the Holy One they stand in their appointed places;
they never relax in their watches.(B)
