God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night. And He made the stars as well.

And the LORD took him outside and said, “Now look to the heavens and count the stars, if you are able.” Then He told him, “So shall your offspring be.”

I will surely bless you, and I will multiply your descendants like the stars in the sky and the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will possess the gates of their enemies.

I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky, and I will give them all these lands, and through your offspring all nations of the earth will be blessed,

Then Joseph had another dream and told it to his brothers. “Look,” he said, “I had another dream, and this time the sun and moon and eleven stars were bowing down to me.”

Remember Your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, to whom You swore by Your very self when You declared, ‘I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky, and I will give your descendants all this land that I have promised, and it shall be their inheritance forever.’”

I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not near. A star will come forth from Jacob, and a scepter will arise from Israel. He will crush the skulls of Moab and strike down all the sons of Sheth.

The LORD your God has multiplied you, so that today you are as numerous as the stars in the sky.

When you look to the heavens and see the sun and moon and stars—all the host of heaven—do not be enticed to bow down and worship what the LORD your God has apportioned to all the nations under heaven.

Your fathers went down to Egypt, seventy in all, and now the LORD your God has made you as numerous as the stars in the sky.

You who were as numerous as the stars in the sky will be left few in number, because you would not obey the voice of the LORD your God.

From the heavens the stars fought; from their courses they fought against Sisera.

David did not count the men aged twenty or under, because the LORD had said that He would make Israel as numerous as the stars of the sky.

So we continued the work, while half of the men held spears from the break of dawn until the stars came out.

You multiplied their descendants like the stars of heaven and brought them to the land You had told their fathers to enter and possess.

May its morning stars grow dark; may it wait in vain for daylight; may it not see the breaking of dawn.

He commands the sun not to shine; He seals off the stars.

Is not God as high as the heavens? Look at the highest stars, how lofty they are!

If even the moon does not shine, and the stars are not pure in His sight,

…while the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

When I behold Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place—

…the moon and stars to govern the night. His loving devotion endures forever.

He determines the number of the stars; He calls them each by name.

Praise Him, O sun and moon; praise Him, all you shining stars.

…before the light of the sun, moon, and stars is darkened, and the clouds return after the rain,

For the stars of heaven and their constellations will not give their light. The rising sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light.

You said in your heart: “I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God. I will sit on the mount of assembly, in the far reaches of the north.

You are wearied by your many counselors; let them come forward now and save you—your astrologers who observe the stars, who monthly predict your fate.

Thus says the LORD, who gives the sun for light by day, who sets in order the moon and stars for light by night, who stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—the LORD of Hosts is His name:

When I extinguish you, I will cover the heavens and darken their stars. I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon will not give its light.

It grew as high as the host of heaven, and it cast down some of the host and some of the stars to the earth and trampled them.

Then the wise will shine like the brightness of the heavens, and those who lead many to righteousness will shine like the stars forever and ever.

Before them the earth quakes; the heavens tremble. The sun and moon grow dark, and the stars lose their brightness.

The sun and moon will grow dark, and the stars will no longer shine.

You have taken along Sakkuth your king and Kaiwan your star god, the idols you made for yourselves.

Though you soar like the eagle and make your nest among the stars, even from there I will bring you down,” declares the LORD.

You have multiplied your merchants more than the stars of the sky. The young locust strips the land and flies away.
