Genesis - Chapter 1

1 In the beginning God created [made], the heaven and the earth.

2 And the earth was without form, and void [unsightly and unfurnished]; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon, the face of the waters.

3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day [and there was evening and there was morning, one day].

6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters, and it was so.

7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.

8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And God saw that it was good. And the evening and the morning were the second day [and there was evening and there was morning, the second day].

9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. [And the water which was under the heaven was collected into its places, and the dry land appeared].

10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters [the gatherings of the waters], called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, according to its kind and according to its likeness, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind and according to its likeness, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

13 And the evening and the morning were the third day [and there was evening and there was morning, the third day].

14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness [between the light and the darkness]: and God saw that it was good.

19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life [reptiles having life], and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven, and it was so.

21 And God created [made], great whales, and every living  creature [reptile] that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful [increase] and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

23 [And there was evening and there was morning]. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the Earth [quadrupeds and reptiles and wild beasts of the Earth]: and it was so.

25 And God made the wild beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth [reptiles] after his kind: and God saw that it was good [that they were good].

26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing [all the reptiles], that creepeth upon the earth.

27 So God created [made] man in his own image, in the image of God created [made], he him; male and female created [made] he them.

28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Increase, be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and all the cattle and all the earth, and over every living thing that moveth upon the Earth [all the reptiles that creep on the earth].

29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing [sowing] seed , which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed, [seed that is sown]; to you it shall be for meat.

30 And to every wild beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life [which has in itself the breath of life], I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.

31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day [and there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day].
