'Light' in the Bible

Many are saying, “Who will show us any good?”Lift up the light of Your countenance upon us, O Lord!

For You light my lamp;The Lord my God illumines my darkness.

A Psalm of David.The Lord is my light and my salvation;Whom shall I fear?The Lord is the defense of my life;Whom shall I dread?

For with You is the fountain of life;In Your light we see light.

He will bring forth your righteousness as the lightAnd your judgment as the noonday.

My heart throbs, my strength fails me;And the light of my eyes, even that has gone from me.

O send out Your light and Your truth, let them lead me;Let them bring me to Your holy hillAnd to Your dwelling places.

For by their own sword they did not possess the land,And their own arm did not save them,But Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your presence,For You favored them.

He shall go to the generation of his fathers;They will never see the light.

For You have delivered my soul from death,Indeed my feet from stumbling,So that I may walk before GodIn the light of the living.

Yours is the day, Yours also is the night;You have prepared the light and the sun.

Then He led them with the cloud by dayAnd all the night with a light of fire.

How blessed are the people who know the joyful sound!O Lord, they walk in the light of Your countenance.

You have placed our iniquities before You,Our secret sins in the light of Your presence.

Light is sown like seed for the righteousAnd gladness for the upright in heart.

Covering Yourself with light as with a cloak,Stretching out heaven like a tent curtain.

Light arises in the darkness for the upright;He is gracious and compassionate and righteous.

The Lord is God, and He has given us light;Bind the festival sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.

Nun.Your word is a lamp to my feetAnd a light to my path.

The unfolding of Your words gives light;It gives understanding to the simple.

If I say, “Surely the darkness will overwhelm me,And the light around me will be night,”

Even the darkness is not dark to You,And the night is as bright as the day.Darkness and light are alike to You.

Praise Him, sun and moon;Praise Him, all stars of light!
