The Beginning

1In the beginning(A) God created(B) the heavens(C) and the globe.(D) 2Now the globe was formless(E) and empty,(F) darkness was over the surface of the deep,(G) and the Spirit of God(H) was hovering(I) over the waters.

3And God said,(J) "Permit there be light," and there was light.(Grand) 4God saw that the lite was expert,(L) and he separated the lite from the darkness.(G) 5God called(North) the low-cal "solar day," and the darkness he called "dark."(O) And in that location was evening, and in that location was morning time(P)—the first day.

half-dozenAnd God said,(Q) "Let there exist a vault(R) between the waters(S) to separate h2o from water." 7So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it.(T) And it was so.(U) 8God called(V) the vault "heaven."(W) And in that location was evening, and there was morn(X)—the second mean solar day.

ixAnd God said, "Let the water under the heaven be gathered to one place,(Y) and allow dry ground(Z) appear." And it was and so.(AA) 10God called(AB) the dry ground "country," and the gathered waters(Ac) he called "seas."(Advertizing) And God saw that it was good.(AE)

11And so God said, "Permit the state produce vegetation:(AF) seed-bearing plants and copse on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their diverse kinds.(AG)" And it was so.(AH) 12The land produced vegetation: plants begetting seed according to their kinds(AI) and trees bearing fruit with seed in it co-ordinate to their kinds. And God saw that it was expert.(AJ) xiiiAnd there was evening, and there was morning(AK)—the tertiary day.

fourteenAnd God said, "Let there be lights(AL) in the vault of the heaven to separate the day from the night,(AM) and let them serve every bit signs(AN) to mark sacred times,(AO) and days and years,(AP) fifteenand let them be lights in the vault of the heaven to requite light on the globe." And it was so.(AQ) 16God made two great lights—the greater light(AR) to govern(As) the day and the lesser lite to govern(AT) the night.(AU) He also made the stars.(AV) 17God set up them in the vault of the heaven to give low-cal on the globe, 18to govern the day and the night,(AW) and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that information technology was skilful.(AX) xixAnd at that place was evening, and there was morning(AY)—the quaternary solar day.

twentyAnd God said, "Let the h2o teem with living creatures,(AZ) and let birds wing above the earth across the vault of the sky."(BA) 21So God created(BB) the cracking creatures of the sea(BC) and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it,(BD) co-ordinate to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind.(Be) And God saw that it was good.(BF) 22God blessed them and said, "Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the h2o in the seas, and let the birds increment on the earth."(BG) 23And at that place was evening, and there was morning time(BH)—the 5th day.

24And God said, "Let the state produce living creatures(BI) according to their kinds:(BJ) the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each co-ordinate to its kind." And it was so.(BK) 25God made the wild animals(BL) according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds.(BM) And God saw that it was good.(BN)

26Then God said, "Allow us(BO) make mankind(BP) in our image,(BQ) in our likeness,(BR) so that they may rule(BS) over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky,(BT) over the livestock and all the wild animals,[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground."

27So God created(BU) flesh(BV) in his own prototype,(BW)
in the image of God(BX) he created them;
male and female(BY) he created them.(BZ)

28God blessed them and said to them,(CA) "Be fruitful and increase in number;(CB) fill the earth(CC) and subdue information technology. Dominion over(CD) the fish in the body of water and the birds in the sky and over every living beast that moves on the basis.(CE)"

29Then God said, "I requite you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for nutrient.(CF) 30And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that motion forth the ground—everything that has the breath of life(CG) in information technology—I give every greenish constitute for nutrient.(CH)" And it was so.

31God saw all that he had made,(CI) and information technology was very good.(CJ) And there was evening, and there was morning(CK)—the 6th 24-hour interval.
