Genesis 1
1 In the beginning Elohim created the heaven and the earth.
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of Elohim moved upon the face of the waters.
Now, the earth, had become waste and wild, and darkness, was on the face of the roaring deep, —but, the Spirit of God, was brooding on the face of the waters,
3 And Elohim said, Let there be light: and there was light.
And God said—Light, be, And light was.
4 And Elohim saw the light, that it was good: and Elohim divided the light from the darkness.
And God saw the light, that it was, good, and God divided the light, from the, darkness;
5 And Elohim called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
and God called the light, day, but the darkness, called he, night. So it was evening—and it was morning, one day.
6 And Elohim said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
And God said, Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it be a means of dividing, between waters and waters,
7 And Elohim made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
And God made the expanse, and it divided between the waters that were under the expanse and the waters that were above the expanse. And it was so.
8 And Elohim called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
And God called the expanse, heavens. So it was evening—and it was morning, a, second day.
9 And Elohim said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
And God said—Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together, into one place, and let the dry—ground appear. And it was so.
10 And Elohim called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and Elohim saw that it was good.
And God called, the dry-ground, land, but the gathering together of the waters, called he seas. And God saw that it was good.
11 And Elohim said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
And God said—Let the land put-forth vegetation—herb yielding seed, fruit-tree, bearing fruit after its kind, whose seed is within it on the land. And it was so,
12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and Elohim saw that it was good.
And the land brought-forth vegetation—herb yielding seed after its kind, and tree bearing fruit, whose seed is within it, after its kind, And God saw that it was good.
13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
So it was evening—and it was morning, a third day.
14 And Elohim said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
And God said—Let there be luminaries in the expanse of the heavens, to divide between 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 heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
yea let them be for luminaries in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth. And it was so.
16 And Elohim made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
And God made the two great luminaries, —the greater luminary to rule the day, and the lesser luminary to rule the night, also the stars.
17 And Elohim set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
And God set them in the expanse of the heavens, —to give light on the earth;
18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and Elohim saw that it was good.
and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
So it was evening—and it was morning, a fourth day.
20 And Elohim said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
And God said—Let the waters swarm with an abundance of living soul, and, birds, shall fly over the earth, over the face of the expanse of the heavens.
21 And Elohim created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and Elohim saw that it was good.
And God created the great sea-monsters, —and every living soul that moveth—[with] which the waters swarmed after their kind and every winged bird—after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
22 And Elohim blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
And God blessed them, saying, —Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let, the birds, multiply in the land.
23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
So it was evening—and it was morning, a fifth day.
24 And Elohim said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
And God said—Let the land, bring forth, living soul, after its kind, tame-beast and creeping thing and wild-beast, of the land, after its kind. And it was so.
25 And Elohim made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and Elohim saw that it was good.
And God made the wild-beast of the land after its kind, and the tame-beast after its kind, and every creeping thing of the ground, after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
26 And Elohim said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
And God said—Let us make man in our image after our likeness—and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the bird of the heavens and over the tame-beast—and over all the land, and over every creeping thing, that creepeth on the land.
27 So Elohim created man in his own image, in the image of Elohim created he him; male and female created he them.
And God created the man in his own image, In the image of God, created he him, —Male and female, created he, them.
28 And Elohim blessed them, and Elohim said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
And God blessed them, and God said to them Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, —and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the bird of the heavens, and over every living thing that moveth on the land.
29 And Elohim said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
And God said—Lo! I have given to you—every herb yielding seed which is on the face of all the land, and every tree wherein is the fruit of a tree yielding seed, —to you, shall it be, for food;
30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
and to every living thing of the land—and to every bird of the heavens, and to every thing that moveth on the land, wherein is a living soul, every green herb for food. And it was so.
31 And Elohim saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
And God saw every thing which he had made, and lo! it was very good. So it was evening—and it was morning, the sixth day.
