11And GodH430 saidH559, LetH1961 the earthH776 put forth grassH1877, herbH6212 yieldingH2232 seedH2233, and fruitH6529 treeH6086 bearingH6213 fruitH6529 afterH5921 itsH5921 kindH4327, whereinH834 is the seedH2233 thereof, uponH5921 the earthH776: and it was soH3651.

12And the earthH776 broughtH3318 forthH3318 grassH1877, herbH6212 yieldingH2232 seedH2233 afterH3588 itsH3588 kindH4327, and treeH6086 bearingH6213 fruitH6529, whereinH834 is the seedH2233 thereof, afterH3588 itsH3588 kindH4327: and GodH430 sawH7200 that it was goodH2896.

15and letH1961 them be for lightsH3974 in the firmamentH7549 of the heavenH8064 to giveH215 lightH215 uponH5921 the earthH776: and it was soH3651.
