Genesis 1:1–11

^*In the ^abeginning God created the heaven and the earth. ²And the earth was ^bwithout form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

³And God said, ^cLet there be light: and there was light. ⁴And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided ^†the light from the darkness. ⁵And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. ^†And the evening and the morning were the first day.

⁶And God said, ^dLet there be a ^†firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. ⁷And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were ^eabove the firmament: and it was so. ⁸And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

⁹And God said, ^fLet the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. ¹⁰And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. ¹¹And God 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.
