Sirach 43:5-7

Common English Bible

⁵ Great is the Lord who made it;
    it speeds on its course by his command.
⁶ The moon stands at its proper time,^[a]
    a notification of times
    and an everlasting sign.
⁷ The sign for a feast comes from the moon,
    a luminous body that wanes
    when it completes its course.
