“1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 1:2 Now the
earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep. God’s
Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.
1:3 God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 1:4 God saw the
light, and saw that it was good. God divided the light from the darkness. 1:5
God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” There was
evening and there was morning, one day.
1:6 God said, “Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters, and let
it divide the waters from the waters.” 1:7 God made the expanse, and divided the
waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the
expanse; and it was so. 1:8 God called the expanse “sky.” There was evening and
there was morning, a second day.”
-- Genesis 1:1 to 1:8
