The
Creation |
|
|
 |
|
Genesis 1:1
|
|
In the beginning God created the heavens and
the earth. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:2
|
|
The earth was formless and void, and darkness
was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface
of the waters. |
| |
|
|
|
Genesis 1:3
|
|
Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there
was light. |
| |
|
|
|
Genesis 1:4
|
|
God saw that the light was good; and God separated
the light from the darkness. |
| |
|
|
|
Genesis 1:5
|
|
God called the light day, and the darkness He
called night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day. |
| |
|
|
|
Genesis 1:6
|
|
Then God said, "Let there be an expanse in the
midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters." |
| |
|
|
|
Genesis 1:7
|
|
God made the expanse, and separated the waters
which were below the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and
it was so. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:8
|
|
God called the expanse heaven. And there was
evening and there was morning, a second day. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:9
|
|
Then God said, "Let the waters below the heavens
be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appear"; and it was so. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:10
|
|
God called the dry land earth, and the gathering
of the waters He called seas; and God saw that it was good. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:11
|
|
Then God said, "Let the earth sprout vegetation,
plants yielding seed, and fruit trees on the earth bearing fruit after their kind
with seed in them"; and it was so. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:12
|
|
The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding
seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit with seed in them, after their
kind; and God saw that it was good. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:13
|
|
There was evening and there was morning, a third
day. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:14
|
|
Then God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse
of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signs and
for seasons and for days and years; |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:15
|
|
and let them be for lights in the expanse of
the heavens to give light on the earth"; and it was so. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:16
|
|
God made the two great lights, the greater light
to govern the day, and the lesser light to govern the night; He made the stars
also. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:17
|
|
God placed them in the expanse of the heavens
to give light on the earth, |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:18
|
|
and to govern the day and the night, and to
separate the light from the darkness; and God saw that it was good. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:19
|
|
There was evening and there was morning, a fourth
day. |
| |
|
|
|
Genesis 1:20
|
|
Then God said, "Let the waters teem with swarms
of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of
the heavens." |
| |
|
|
|
Genesis 1:21
|
|
God created the great sea monsters and every
living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed after their kind, and
every winged bird after its kind; and God saw that it was good. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:22
|
|
God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful and multiply,
and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth." |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:23
|
|
There was evening and there was morning, a fifth
day. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:24
|
|
Then 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. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:25
|
|
God made the beasts of the earth after their
kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground
after its kind; and God saw that it was good. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:26
|
|
Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image,
according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over
the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every
creeping thing that creeps on the earth." |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:27
|
|
God created man in His own image, in the image
of God He created him; male and female He created them. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:28
|
|
God blessed them; and God said to them, "Be
fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish
of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves
on the earth." |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:29
|
|
Then God said, "Behold, I have given you every
plant yielding seed that is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree which
has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you; |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:30
|
|
and to every beast of the earth and to every
bird of the sky and to every thing that moves on the earth which has life, I have
given every green plant for food"; and it was so. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 1:31
|
|
God saw all that He had made, and behold, it
was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day. |
