Genesis 1:7-9

7God made the 1expanse, and separated 2the waters that were below the 3expanse from the waters 4that were above the 5expanse; and it was so. 8God called the 6expanse “heaven.” And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.

9Then God said, “7Let the waters below the heavens be gathered into one place, and let 8the dry land appear”; and it was so.
