Psalms 74:17

15 You broke open the fountain and the flood; You dried up the ever-flowing rivers.

16 The day is Yours, and also the night; You established the moon and the sun.

You set all the boundaries of the earth; You made the summer and winter.

18 Remember how the enemy has mocked You, O LORD, how a foolish people has spurned Your name.

19 Do not deliver the soul of Your dove to beasts; do not forget the lives of Your afflicted forever.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
