1 Corinthians 15:37–41 · Berean Standard Bible

39 Not all flesh is the same: Men have one kind of flesh, animals have another, birds another, and fish another.

40 There are also heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. But the splendor of the heavenly bodies is of one degree, and the splendor of the earthly bodies is of another.

41 The sun has one degree of splendor, the moon another, and the stars another; and star differs from star in splendor.
