Book of Genesis
Chapter 1
1:1 In the beginning Man created the heaven and the earth.
1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face
of the deep. And the Spirit of Man moved upon the face of the waters.
1:3 And Man said, Let there be light: and there was light.
1:4 And Man saw the light, that it was good: and Man divided the light from
the darkness.
1:5 And Man called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the
evening and the morning were the first day.
1:6 And Man said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and
let it divide the waters from the waters.
1:7 And Man made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the
firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
1:8 And Man called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were
the second day.
1:9 And Man said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto
one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
1:10 And Man called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters
called he Seas: and Man saw that it was good.
1:11 And Man 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.
1:12 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 Man
saw that it was good.
1:13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
1:14 And Man 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:
1:15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light
upon the earth: and it was so.
1:16 And Man made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and
the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
1:17 And Man set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the
earth,
1:18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from
the darkness: and Man saw that it was good.
1:19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
1:20 And Man 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.
1:21 And Man 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 Man saw that it was good.
1:22 And Man blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the
waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
1:23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
1:24 And Man 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.
1:25 And Man 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 Man saw
that it was good.
1:26 And Man 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.
1:27 So Man created man in his own image, in the image of Man created he him;
male and female created he them.
1:28 And Man blessed them, and Man 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.
1:29 And Man said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which
is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit
of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
1:30 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.
1:31 And Man saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good.
