lux sit

let there be light

Notes

A more literal Latinization of the phrase "let there be light", the most common translation of fiat lux ("let light arise", literally "let light be made"), which in turn is the Latin Vulgate Bible phrase chosen for the Genesis line "????????? ????????, ????? ????; ???????-????" (And God said: 'Let there be light.' And there was light). Motto of the University of Washington.
