Genesis 1:26-28

26Then God said, “Let 1Us make 2man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them 3rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the 4sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

27God created man 5in His own image, in the image of God He created him; 6male and female He created them.

28God blessed them; and God said to them, “7Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the 8sky and over every living thing that 9moves on the earth.”
