Les Psaumes 74:16 Midrash : Bereshit Rabbah & Midrash Tehillim

לְךָ֣ י֭וֹם אַף־לְךָ֥ לָ֑יְלָה אַתָּ֥ה הֲ֝כִינ֗וֹתָ מָא֥וֹר וָשָֽׁמֶשׁ׃

à toi appartient le jour, à toi aussi la nuit, c’est toi qui as créé l’astre lumineux, le soleil.

Bereshit Rabbah

“The day is Yours, night is Yours, as well” (Psalms 74:16) – the day lauds You and the night lauds You. Just as the day is in Your domain, so the night is in Your domain. When You perform miracles for us during the day, “the day is Yours,” and when You perform miracles for us at night, “night is Yours, as well.” When You perform miracles for us during the day, we recite songs to You during the day. When You perform miracles for us at night, we recite songs to You at night. You performed miracles for us during the day and we recited songs to You during the day: “Deborah and Barak son of Avinoam sang on [that] day…” (Judges 5:1). You performed miracles for us at night and we recited song to You at night: “The song will be for you, like the night of the consecration of the festival” (Isaiah 30:29). To You it is appropriate to recite songs during the day; to You it is appropriate to recite songs at night. Why? “You founded light and the sun” (Psalms 74:16). And You made the two lights, as it is stated: “God made the two great lights…” (Genesis 1:16).

Midrash Tehillim

"To the conductor, for the servant of the Lord. This is what the scripture says (Psalms 16:1), 'A psalm of David. Preserve me, O God, for in You I have taken refuge.' Rabbi Yudan in the name of Rabbi Yehuda said, 'Everything that David said in his book, he said corresponding to himself, to all of Israel, and to all times.' Our Master, the Lord of the Universe, You performed miracles for us at night and we sang praises at night, as it says (Exodus 15:2), 'The Lord is my strength and my song, and He has become my salvation; this is my God, and I will praise Him.' And it says (Isaiah 30:29), 'You shall have a song, as in the night when a holy festival is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one sets out to the sound of the flute, to go to the mountain of the Lord, to the Rock of Israel.' You performed miracles for us during the day and we sang praises to You during the day, as it says (Psalms 118:24), 'This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.'...
