Genesis 1:3-8

3Then 1God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. 4God saw that the light was 2good; and God 3separated the light from the darkness. 54God called the light day, and the darkness He called night. And 5there was evening and there was morning, one day.

6Then God said, “Let there be 6an 7expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.” 7God made the 8expanse, and separated 9the waters which were below the 10expanse from the waters 11which were above the 12expanse; and it was so. 8God called the 13expanse heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.
