Genesis 1:1-7 ▼

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

2 And the earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.

3 Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.

4 And God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness.

5 And God called the light day, and the darkness He called night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day.

6 Then God said, “Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.”

7 So God made the expanse and separated the waters which were below the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so.
