Бытие 1

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 и да будут в просвещение на тверди небесней, яко светити по земли. И бысть тако.
To shine in the firmament of heaven, and to give light upon the earth. And it was so done.
16 И сотвори Бог два светила великая: светило великое в начала дне, и светило меншее в начала нощи, и звезды:

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:
