Genesis 1:1,16-18

"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth...

God made the two great lights, the greater light to govern the day, and the lesser light to govern the night; He made the stars also.

God placed them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth, and to govern the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness; and God saw that it was good."...

Psalms 8:3

..."When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers,

The moon and the stars, which You have ordained;"...

Psalms 19:1

"The heavens are telling of the glory of God;

And their expanse is declaring the work of His hands."...

Psalms 33:6

..."By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,

And by the breath of His mouth all their host."...

Psalms 147:4

..."He counts the number of the stars;

He gives names to all of them."...

Isaiah 40:26

..."Lift up your eyes on high

And see who has created these stars,

The One who leads forth their host by number,

He calls them all by name;

Because of the greatness of His might and the strength of His power,

Not one of them is missing."...
