* In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth . * And the earth was without form and void , and darkness was upon the face of the deep ; and the spirit of God was waving over the face of the waters . * And God said , Let there be light ; and there was light . * And God saw the light that it was good ; and God divided between the light and the darkness . * And God called the light Day , and the darkness he called Night . And it was evening and it was morning , the first day . * And God said , Let there be an expansion in the midst of the waters , and let it divide between waters and waters . * And God made the expansion , and divided between the waters which were under the expansion and the waters which were above the expansion : and it was so . * And God called the expansion Heaven . And it was evening and it was morning , the second day . * And God said , Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place , and let the dry land be visible : and it was so . * And God called the dry land Earth ; and the gathering together of the waters he called Seas : and God saw that it was good . * And God said , Let the earth bring forth grass , herbs yielding seed , fruit –trees yielding fruit after their kind , in which its seed is upon the earth : and it was so . * And the earth brought forth grass , herbs yielding seed after their kind , and trees yielding fruit , in which its seed is after their kind : and God saw that it was good . * And it was evening and it was morning , the third day . * And God said , Let there be lights in the expansion of the heaven to divide between the day and the night ; and let them be for signs , and for seasons , and for days , and years ; * And let them be for lights in the expansion of the heaven , to give light upon the earth : and it was so . * And God made the two great lights ; the greater light to rule the day , and the lesser light to rule the night ; and the stars . * And God set them in the expansion of the heaven to give light upon the earth , * And to rule by day and by night , and to divide between the light and the darkness : and God saw that it was good . * And it was evening and it was morning , the fourth day . * And God said , Let the waters bring forth abundantly moving creatures that have life , and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open expansion of the heaven . * And God created the great sea –monsters , and every living creature that moveth , which the waters brought forth abundantly after their kind , and every winged fowl after its kind : and God saw that it was good . * And God blessed them , saying , Be fruitful and multiply , and fill the waters in the seas , and let the fowl multiply on the earth . * And it was evening and it was morning , the fifth day . * And God said , Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind , cattle , and creeping things , and beasts of the earth after their kind : and it was so . * And God made the beasts of the earth after their kind , and the cattle after their kind , and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after its kind : and God saw that it was good . * And God said , Let us make man in our image , after our likeness ; and they shall have dominion over the fish of the sea , and over the fowl of the heaven , and over the cattle , and over all the earth , and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth . * And God created man in his image , in the image of God created he him ; male and female created he them . * And God blessed them , and God said unto them , Be fruitful and multiply , and fill the earth , and subdue it ; and have dominion over the fish of the sea , and over the fowl of the heaven , and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth . * And God said , Behold I have given unto you every herb bearing seed , which is upon the face of all the earth , and every tree on which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed ; to you it shall be for food . * And to every beast of the earth , and to every fowl of the heaven , and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth , wherein there is life , every green herb for food : and it was so . * And God saw every thing that he had made , and behold , it was very good . And it was evening and it was morning , the sixth day .
