- 1:1
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
- 1:2
Now the earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.
- 1:3
And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
- 1:4
And God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness.
- 1:5
God called the light “day,” and the darkness He called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
- 1:6
And God said, “Let there be an expanse between the waters, to separate the waters from the waters.”
- 1:7
So God made the expanse and separated the waters beneath it from the waters above. And it was so.
- 1:8
God called the expanse “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.
- 1:9
And God said, “Let the waters under the sky be gathered into one place, so that the dry land may appear.” And it was so.
- 1:10
God called the dry land “earth,” and the gathering of waters He called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.
