Genesis 1
1In the beginning, God created the universe.H7225H430H1254H853H8064H853H7762When the earth was as yet unformed and desolate, with the surface of the ocean depths shrouded in darkness, and while the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters,H776H1961H8414H922H2822H6440H8415H7307H430H7363H5921H6440H43253God said, "Let there be light!" So there was light.H430H559H1961H216H2164God saw that the light was beautiful. He separated the light from the darkness,H430H7200H853H216H3588H2896H430H914H996H216H996H28225calling the light "day," and the darkness "night." The twilight and dawn were day one.H430H7121H216H3117H2822H7121H3915H6153H1242H259H31176Then God said, "Let there be a canopy between bodies of water, separating bodies of water from bodies of water!"H430H559H7549H8432H4325H914H4325H43257So God made a canopy that separated the water beneath the canopy from the water above it. So that's the way it was.H430H6213H7549H914H4325H834H8478H7549H4325H834H5921H7549H36518God called the canopy "sky." The twilight and the dawn were the second day.H430H7121H7549H8064H6153H1242H8145H31179Then God said, "Let the water beneath the sky come together into one area, and let dry ground appear!" So that's the way it was.H430H559H4325H8064H6960H413H259H4725H3004H720010God called the dry ground "land," and he called the water that had come together "oceans." And God saw how good it was.H430H7121H3004H776H4723H4325H7121H3220H430H7200H289611Then God said, "Let vegetation sprout all over the earth, including seed-bearing plants and fruit trees, each kind containing its own seed!" So that's the way it was:H430H559H776H1876H1877H6212H2232H2233H6529H6086H6213H6529H4327H834H2233H77612Vegetation sprouted all over the earth, including seed-bearing plants and fruit trees, each kind containing its own seed. And God saw that it was good.H776H3318H1877H6212H2232H2233H4327H6086H6213H6529H2233H4327H430H7200H289613The twilight and the dawn were the third day.H6153H1242H7992H311714Then God said, "Let there be lights across the sky to distinguish day from night, to act as signs for seasons, days, and years,H430H559H3974H7549H8064H914H3117H3915H226H4150H3117H814115to serve as lights in the sky, and to shine on the earth!" So that's the way it was.H3974H7549H8064H215H77616God fashioned two great lights - the larger light to shine during the day and the smaller light to shine during the night - as well as the stars.H430H6213H8147H1419H3974H1419H3974H4475H3117H6996H3974H4475H3915H355617God placed them in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth,H430H5414H7549H8064H215H77618to shine both day and night, and to distinguish light from darkness. And God saw how good it was.H4910H3117H3915H914H216H2822H430H7200H289619The twilight and the dawn were the fourth day.1H6153H1242H7243H311720Then God said, "Let the oceans swarm with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth throughout the sky!"H430H559H4325H8317H8318H2416H5315H5775H5774H5921H776H6440H7549H806421So God created every kind of magnificent marine creature, every kind of living marine crawler with which the waters swarmed, and every kind of flying bird. And God saw how good it was.H430H1254H1419H8577H2416H5315H7430H4325H8317H4327H3671H5775H4327H430H7200H289622God blessed them by saying, "Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the oceans. Let the birds multiply throughout the earth!"H430H1288H559H6509H7235H4390H4325H3220H5775H7235H77623The twilight and the dawn were the fifth day.1H6153H1242H2549H311724Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth each kind of living creature, each kind of livestock and crawling thing, and each kind of wild animal!" And so it was.H430H559H776H3318H2416H5315H4327H929H7431H2416H776H432725God made each kind of wild animal, along with every kind of livestock and crawling thing. And God saw how good it was.H430H6213H2416H776H4327H929H4327H7431H127H4327H430H7200H289626Then God said, "Let us make mankind in our image, to be like us. Let them be masters over the fish in the ocean, the birds that fly, the livestock, everything that crawls on the earth, and over the earth itself!"H430H559H6213H120H6754H1823H7287H1710H3220H5775H8064H929H776H7431H7430H77627So God created mankind in his own image; in his own image God created them; he created them male and female.H430H1254H120H6754H6754H430H1254H2145H5347H125428God blessed these humans by saying to them, "Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it! Rule over the fish in the ocean, the birds that fly, and every living thing that crawls on the earth!"H430H1288H430H559H6509H7235H4390H776H3533H7287H1710H3220H5775H8064H2416H7430H77629God also told them, "Look! I have given you every seed-bearing plant that grows throughout the earth, along with every tree that grows seed-bearing fruit. They will produce your food.H430H559H2009H5414H6212H2232H2233H6440H776H6086H6529H6086H2232H2233H1961H40230I have given all green plants as food for every wild animal of the earth, every bird that flies, and to every living thing that crawls on the earth." And so it was.H2416H776H5775H8064H7430H776H2416H5315H3418H6212H40231Now God saw all that he had made, and, indeed, it was very good! The twilight and the dawn were the sixth day.H430H7200H834H6213H3966H2896H6153H1242H8345H3117
