MN 49:9.1–9.10

‘Yāvatā candimasūriyā, Pariharanti disā bhanti virocanā; Tāva sahassadhā loko, Ettha te vattate vaso. Paroparañca jānāsi, atho rāgavirāginaṁ; Itthabhāvaññathābhāvaṁ, sattānaṁ āgatiṁ gatinti. Evaṁ kho te ahaṁ, brahme, gatiñca pajānāmi jutiñca pajānāmi: “evaṁ mahiddhiko bako brahmā, evaṁ mahānubhāvo bako brahmā, evaṁ mahesakkho bako brahmā”ti.

‘A galaxy extends a thousand times as far as the moon and sun revolve and the dazzling ones light up the quarters. And there you wield your power. You know the high and low, the passionate and dispassionate, and the coming and going of sentient beings from this realm to another. That’s how I understand your range and your light.
