24And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kind: cattle and moving things, and wild animalsi according to their kind.” And it was so. 25Soj God made wild animalsk according to their kind and the cattle according to their kind, and every creeping thing of the earth according to itsl kind. And God saw that it was good.

26And God said, “Let us make humankind inm our image and according ton our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of heaven,o and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every moving thing that moves upon the earth.” 27Sop God created humankind inq his image, inr the likeness of God he created him,s male and female he created them. 28And God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it, and rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of heaven,t and over every animal that moves upon the earth.”

29And God said, “Look—I am giving to you every plant that bears seed which is on the face of the whole earth, and every kind of tree that bears fruit.u They shall be yours as food.” 30And to every kind of animal of the earth and to every bird of heaven,v and to everything that moves upon the earth in which there is life I am giving every green plant as food.” And it was so.
