Genesis 1:2-5

2Now the earthH776 wasH1961 formlessH8414 and voidH922, and darknessH2822 was overH5921 the surfaceH6440 of the deepH8415. And the SpiritH7307 of GodH430 was hoveringH7363 overH5921 the surfaceH6440 of the watersH4325.

3And GodH430 saidH559, “Let there beH1961 lightH216,”1 and there wasH1961 lightH216. 4And GodH430 sawH7200 thatH3588 the lightH216 was goodH2896, andH430 He separatedH914 the lightH216 fromH996 the darknessH2822. 5GodH430 calledH7121 the lightH216 “dayH3117,” and the darknessH2822 He calledH7121 “nightH3915.”

And there wasH1961 eveningH6153, and there wasH1961 morningH1242—the firstH259 dayH3117.2
