Genesis 1
1 In [the] beginning God created the heavens and the earth,
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 and the earth was formless and void, and darkness [was] on the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God [was] fluttering on the face of the waters,
And the earth was waste and empty, and darkness was on the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
3 and God says, “Let light be”; and light is.
And God said, Let there be light. And there was light.
4 And God sees that the light [is] good, and God separates between the light and the darkness,

5 and God calls the light “Day,” and the darkness He has called “Night”; and there is an evening, and there is a morning—day one.
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening, and there was morning — the first day.
6 And God says, “Let an expanse be in the midst of the waters, and let it be separating between waters and waters.”
And God said, Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it be a division between waters and waters.
7 And God makes the expanse, and it separates between the waters which [are] under the expanse, and the waters which [are] above the expanse: and it is so.
And God made the expanse, and divided between the waters that are under the expanse and the waters that are above the expanse; and it was so.
8 And God calls the expanse “Heavens”; and there is an evening, and there is a morning—[the] second day.
And God called the expanse Heavens. And there was evening, and there was morning — a second day.
9 And God says, “Let the waters under the heavens be collected to one place, and let the dry land be seen”: and it is so.
And God said, Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together to one place, and let the dry [land] appear. And it was so.
10 And God calls the dry land “Earth,” and the collection of the waters He has called “Seas”; and God sees that [it is] 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 And God says, “Let the earth yield tender grass, herb sowing seed, fruit-tree (whose seed [is] in itself) making fruit after its kind, on the earth”: and it is so.
And God said, Let the earth cause grass to spring up, herb producing seed, fruit-trees yielding fruit after their kind, the seed of which is in them, on the earth. And it was so.
12 And the earth brings forth tender grass, herb sowing seed after its kind, and tree making fruit (whose seed [is] in itself) after its kind; and God sees that [it is] good;

13 and there is an evening, and there is a morning—[the] third day.
And there was evening, and there was morning — a third day.
14 And God says, “Let luminaries be in the expanse of the heavens, to make a separation between the day and the night, then they have been for signs, and for appointed times, and for days and years,
And God said, Let there be lights 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 they have been for luminaries in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth”: and it is so.
and let them be for lights in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth. And it was so.
16 And God makes the two great luminaries, the great luminary for the rule of the day, and the small luminary—and the stars—for the rule of the night;
And God made the two great lights, the great light to rule the day, and the small light to rule the night, — and the stars.
17 and God gives them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth,
And God set them in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth,
18 and to rule over day and over night, and to make a separation between the light and the darkness; and God sees that [it is] good;
and to rule during the day and during the night, and to divide between the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
19 and there is an evening, and there is a morning—[the] fourth day.
And there was evening, and there was morning — a fourth day.
20 And God says, “Let the waters teem with the teeming living creature, and let [the] bird fly above the earth on the face of the expanse of the heavens.”
And God said, Let the waters swarm with swarms of living souls, and let fowl fly above the earth in the expanse of the heavens.
21 And God creates the great dragons, and every living creature that is creeping, which the waters have teemed with, after their kind, and every bird with wing, after its kind, and God sees that [it is] good.
And God created the great sea monsters, and every living soul that moves with which the waters swarm, after their kind, and every winged fowl after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
22 And God blesses them, saying, “Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the bird multiply in the earth”:
And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply on the earth.
23 and there is an evening, and there is a morning—[the] fifth day.
And there was evening, and there was morning — a fifth day.
24 And God says, “Let the earth bring forth the living creature after its kind, livestock and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after its kind”: and it is so.
And God said, Let the earth bring forth living souls after their kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth, after their kind. And it was so.
25 And God makes the beast of the earth after its kind, and the livestock after their kind, and every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, and God sees that [it is] good.
And God made the beast of the earth after its kind, and the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing of the ground after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
26 And God says, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness, and let them rule over [the] fish of the sea, and over [the] bird of the heavens, and over livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that is creeping on 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 fowl of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over the whole earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth on the earth.
27 And God creates the man in His image; in the image of God He created him, a male and a female He created them.
And God created Man in his image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28 And God blesses them, and God says to them, “Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over [the] fish of the sea, and over [the] bird of the heavens, and over every living thing that is creeping on 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 fowl of the heavens, and over every animal that moveth on the earth.
29 And God says, “Behold, I have given to you every herb sowing seed, which [is] on the face of all the earth, and every tree in which [is] the fruit of a tree sowing seed, to you it is for food;
And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb producing seed that is on the whole earth, and every tree in which is the fruit of a tree producing seed: it shall be food for you;
30 and to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the heavens, and to every creeping thing on the earth, in which [is] breath of life, every green herb [is] for food”: and it is so.
and to every animal of the earth, and to every fowl of the heavens, and to everything that creepeth on the earth, in which is a living soul, every green herb for food. And it was so.
31 And God sees all that He has done, and behold, [it is] very good; and there is an evening, and there is a morning—the sixth day.
And God saw everything that he had made, and behold it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning — the sixth day.
