In context
5Great is the Lord that made it; And at his commandment it runneth hastily.
6He made the moon also to serve in her season For a declaration of times, and a sign of the world.
— Sirach 43:7 —
8The month is called after her name, increasing wonderfully in her changing, Being an instrument of the armies above, shining in the firmament of heaven;
9The beauty of heaven, the glory of the stars, An ornament giving light in the highest places of the Lord.
