Genesis 1:11-27

11And 1God said, Let the earth cause grass to spring up, herb producing seed, fruit-trees yielding fruit after their kind, the seed of which is in them, on the earth. And it was so.

12And the earth brought forth grass, herb producing seed after its kind, and trees yielding fruit, the seed of which is in them, after their kind. And 2God saw that it was good.

13And there was evening, and there was morning — a third day.

14And 3God said, Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens, to divide between the day and the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;

15and let them be for lights in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth. And it was so.

16And 4God made the two great lights, the great light to rule the day, and the small light to rule the night, — and the stars.

17And 5God set them in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth,

18and to rule during the day and during the night, and to divide between the light and the darkness. And 6God saw that it was good.

19And there was evening, and there was morning — a fourth day.

20And 7God said, Let the waters swarm with swarms of living souls, and let fowl fly above the earth in the expanse of the heavens.

21And 8God created the great sea monsters, and every living soul that moves with which the waters swarm, after their kind, and every winged fowl after its kind. And 9God saw that it was good.

22And 10God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply on the earth.

23And there was evening, and there was morning — a fifth day.

24And 11God said, Let the earth bring forth living souls after their kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth, after their kind. And it was so.

25And 12God made the beast of the earth after its kind, and the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing of the ground after its kind. And 13God saw that it was good.

26And 14God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over the whole earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth on the earth.

27And 15God created Man in his image, in the image of 16God created he him; male and female created he them.
