And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.

And the LORD said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even darkness which may be felt.

And Moses stretched forth his hand toward heaven; and there was a thick darkness in all the land of Egypt three days:

And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness to them, but it gave light by night to these: so that the one came not near the other all the night.

And ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire unto the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds, and thick darkness.

And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness,(for the mountain did burn with fire,) that ye came near unto me, even all the heads of your tribes, and your elders;

And it came to pass about the time of shutting of the gate, when it was dark, that the men went out: whither the men went I wot not: pursue after them quickly; for ye shall overtake them.

He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail.

And he made darkness pavilions round about him, dark waters, and thick clouds of the skies.

For thou art my lamp, O LORD: and the LORD will lighten my darkness.

Let that day be darkness; let not God regard it from above, neither let the light shine upon it.

Let darkness and the shadow of death stain it; let a cloud dwell upon it; let the blackness of the day terrify it.

They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope in the noonday as in the night.

Before I go whence I shall not return, even to the land of darkness and the shadow of death;

He discovereth deep things out of darkness, and bringeth out to light the shadow of death.

They grope in the dark without light, and he maketh them to stagger like a drunken man.

He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, and he is waited for of the sword.

He wandereth abroad for bread, saying, Where is it? he knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand.

He shall not depart out of darkness; the flame shall dry up his branches, and by the breath of his mouth shall he go away.

They change the night into day: the light is short because of darkness.

If I wait, the grave is mine house: I have made my bed in the darkness.

He shall be driven from light into darkness, and chased out of the world.

He hath fenced up my way that I cannot pass, and he hath set darkness in my paths.

All darkness shall be hid in his secret places: a fire not blown shall consume him; it shall go ill with him that is left in his tabernacle.

Or darkness, that thou canst not see; and abundance of waters cover thee.

Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither hath he covered the darkness from my face.

In the dark they dig through houses, which they had marked for themselves in the daytime: they know not the light.

He hath compassed the waters with bounds, until the day and night come to an end.

He setteth an end to darkness, and searcheth out all perfection: the stones of darkness, and the shadow of death.

When his candle shined upon my head, and when by his light I walked through darkness;

There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.

Teach us what we shall say unto him; for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness.

Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof,

He made darkness his secret place; his pavilion round about him were dark waters and thick clouds of the skies.

For thou wilt light my candle: the LORD my God will enlighten my darkness.

Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them.

Shall thy wonders be known in the dark? and thy righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?

Thou makest darkness, and it is night: wherein all the beasts of the forest do creep forth.

He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.

Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;

He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.

Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.

If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; even the night shall be light about me.

Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.

Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;

Whoso curseth his father or his mother, his lamp shall be put out in obscure darkness.

Then I saw that wisdom excelleth folly, as far as light excelleth darkness.
