+ Genesis 1 >

1 In the beginning God created the heauen and the earth.
In the beginning God created heaven, and earth.
2 And the earth was without forme and void, and darkenesse was vpon the deepe, and the Spirit of God mooued vpon the waters.
And the earth was void and empty, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God moved over the waters.
3 Then God said, Let there be light: And there was light.
And God said: Be light made. And light was made.
4 And God saw the light that it was good, and God separated the light from the darkenes.
And God saw the light that it was good; and he divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the Light, Day, and the darkenes, he called Night. So the euening and the morning were the first day.
And he called the light Day, and the darkness Night; and there was evening and morning one day.
6 Againe God said, Let there be a firmament in the mids of the waters: and let it separate the waters from the waters.
And God said: Let there be a firmament made amidst the waters: and let it divide the waters from the waters.
7 Then God made the firmament, and separated the waters, which were vnder the firmament, from the waters which were aboue the firmament: and it was so.
And God made a firmament, and divided the waters that were under the firmament, from those that were above the firmament, and it was so.
8 And God called the firmament Heauen. So the Euening and the morning were the second day.
And God called the firmament, Heaven; and the evening and morning were the second day.
9 God said againe, Let the waters vnder the heauen be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appeare. and it was so.
God also said: Let the waters that are under the heaven, be gathered together into one place: and let the dry land appear. And it was so done.
10 And God called the dry land, Earth, and he called the gathering together of the waters, Seas: and God saw that it was good.
And God called the dry land, Earth; and the gathering together of the waters, he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
11 Then God said, Let the earth bud forth the bud of the herbe, that seedeth seed, the fruitfull tree, which beareth fruite according to his kinde, which hath his seede in it selfe vpon the earth: and it was so.
And he said: Let the earth bring forth the green herb, and such as may seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after its kind, which may have seed in itself upon the earth. And it was so done.
12 And the earth brought foorth the bud of the herbe, that seedeth seede according to his kind, also the tree that beareth fruit, which hath his seed in it selfe according to his kinde: and God saw that it was good.
And the earth brought forth the green herb, and such as yieldeth seed according to its kind, and the tree that beareth fruit, having seed each one according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
13 So the euening and the morning were the third day.
And the evening and the morning were the third day.
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heauen, to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signes, and for seasons, and for dayes and yeeres.
And God said: Let there be lights made in the firmament of heaven, to divide the day and 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 heauen to giue light vpon the earth: and it was so.
To shine in the firmament of heaven, and to give light upon the earth. And it was so done.
16 God then made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesse light to rule the night: he made also the starres.
And God made two great lights: a greater light to rule the day; and a lesser light to rule the night: and the stars.
17 And God set them in the firmament of the heauen, to shine vpon the earth,
And he set them in the firmament of heaven to shine upon the earth.
18 And to rule in the day, and in the night, and to separate the light from the darkenesse: and God saw that it was good.
And to rule the day and the night, and to divide the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
19 So the euening and the morning were the fourth day.
And the evening and morning were the fourth day.
20 Afterward God said, Let the waters bring foorth in abundance euery creeping thing that hath life: and let the foule flie vpon the earth in the open firmament of the heauen.
God also said: Let the waters bring forth the creeping creature having life, and the fowl that may fly over the earth under the firmament of heaven.
21 Then God created the great whales, and euery thing liuing and mouing, which the waters brought foorth in abundance according to their kinde, and euery fethered foule according to his kinde: and God sawe that it was good.
And God created the great whales, and every living and moving creature, which the waters brought forth, according to their kinds, and every winged fowl according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
22 Then God blessed them, saying, Bring foorth fruite and multiplie, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the foule multiplie in the earth.
And he blessed them, saying: Increase and multiply, and fill the waters of the sea: and let the birds be multiplied upon the earth.
23 So the euening and the morning were the fifte day.
And the evening and morning were the fifth day.
24 Moreouer God said, Let the earth bring foorth the liuing thing according to his kinde, cattel, and that which creepeth, and the beast of the earth, according to his kinde. and it was so.
And God said: Let the earth bring forth the living creature in its kind, cattle and creeping things, and beasts of the earth, according to their kinds. And it was so done.
25 And God made the beast of the earth according to his kinde, and the cattell according to his kinde, and euery creeping thing of the earth according to his kind: and God saw that it was good.
And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds, and cattle, and every thing that creepeth on the earth after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
26 Furthermore God said, Let vs make man in our image according to our likenes, and let them rule ouer the fish of the sea, and ouer the foule of the heauen, and ouer the beastes, and ouer all the earth, and ouer euery thing that creepeth and moueth on the earth.
And he said: Let us make man to our image and likeness: and let him have dominion over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and the beasts, and the whole earth, and every creeping creature that moveth upon the earth.
27 Thus God created the man in his image: in the image of God created he him: he created them male and female.
And God created man to his own image: to the image of God he created him: male and female he created them.
28 And God blessed them, and God said to them, Bring forth fruite and multiplie, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule ouer the fish of the sea, and ouer the foule of the heauen, and ouer euery beast that moueth vpon the earth.
And God blessed them, saying: Increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and all living creatures that move upon the earth.
29 And God said, Beholde, I haue giuen vnto you euery herbe bearing seede, which is vpon al the earth, and euery tree, wherein is the fruite of a tree bearing seede: that shall be to you for meate.
And God said: Behold I have given you every herb bearing seed upon the earth, and all trees that have in themselves seed of their own kind, to be your meat:
30 Likewise to euery beast of the earth, and to euery foule of the heauen, and to euery thing that moueth vpon the earth, which hath life in it selfe, euery greene herbe shall be for meate. and it was so.
And to all beasts of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to all that move upon the earth, and wherein there is life, that they may have to feed upon. And it was so done.
31 And God sawe all that he had made, and loe, it was very good. So the euening and the morning were the sixt day.
And God saw all the things that he had made, and they were very good. And the evening and morning were the sixth day.
