Genesis 1:25-27

25God made the 1animals of the earth according to 2their kind, and the livestock according to 3their kind, and everything that crawls on the ground according to its kind; and God saw that it was good.

26Then God said, “4Let 5Us make 6mankind in Our image, according to Our likeness; and 7let them 8rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the livestock and over all the earth, and over every crawling thing that crawls on the earth.” 27So God created man 9in His own image, in the image of God He created him; 10male and female He created them.
