1 Alussa loi Jumala taivaan ja maan.

2 Ja maa oli autio ja tyhjä, ja pimeys oli syvyyden päällä, ja Jumalan Henki liikkui vetten päällä.

4 Ja Jumala näki, että valkeus oli hyvä; ja Jumala erotti valkeuden pimeydestä.

5 Ja Jumala kutsui valkeuden päiväksi, ja pimeyden hän kutsui yöksi. Ja tuli ehtoo, ja tuli aamu, ensimmäinen päivä.

7 Ja Jumala teki taivaanvahvuuden ja erotti vedet, jotka olivat taivaanvahvuuden alla, vesistä, jotka olivat taivaanvahvuuden päällä; ja tapahtui niin.

8 Ja Jumala kutsui vahvuuden taivaaksi. Ja tuli ehtoo, ja tuli aamu, toinen päivä.

10 Ja Jumala kutsui kuivan maaksi, ja paikan, mihin vedet olivat kokoontuneet, hän kutsui mereksi. Ja Jumala näki, että se oli hyvä.

12 maa tuotti vihantaa, ruohoja, jotka tekivät siementä lajiensa mukaan, ja puita, jotka lajiensa mukaan kantoivat hedelmää, jossa niiden siemen oli. Ja Jumala näki, että se oli hyvä.

13 Ja tuli ehtoo, ja tuli aamu, kolmas päivä.

16 Jumala teki kaksi suurta valoa, suuremman valon hallitsemaan päivää ja pienemmän valon hallitsemaan yötä, sekä tähdet.

17 Ja Jumala pani ne taivaanvahvuuteen, paistamaan maan päälle

18 ja hallitsemaan päivää ja yötä ja erottamaan valon pimeästä. Ja Jumala näki, että se oli hyvä.

19 Ja tuli ehtoo, ja tuli aamu, neljäs päivä.

21 Ja Jumala loi suuret merieläimet ja kaikkinaiset liikkuvat, vesissä vilisevät elävät olennot, kunkin lajinsa mukaan, ja kaikkinaiset siivekkäät linnut, kunkin lajinsa mukaan. Ja Jumala näki, että se oli hyvä.

23 Ja tuli ehtoo, ja tuli aamu, viides päivä.

25 Jumala teki metsäeläimet, kunkin lajinsa mukaan, ja karjaeläimet, kunkin lajinsa mukaan, ja kaikki maan matelijat, kunkin lajinsa mukaan. Ja Jumala näki, että se oli hyvä.

27 Ja Jumala loi ihmisen omaksi kuvaksensa, Jumalan kuvaksi hän hänet loi; mieheksi ja naiseksi hän loi heidät.

31 Ja Jumala katsoi kaikkea, mitä hän tehnyt oli, ja katso, se oli sangen hyvää. Ja tuli ehtoo, ja tuli aamu, kuudes päivä.

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 And the earth was waste and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep: and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. 5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day.

6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. 7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. 8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.

9 And God said, Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. 10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. 11 And God said, Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed, and fruit-trees bearing fruit after their kind, wherein is the seed thereof, upon the earth: and it was so. 12 And the earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, wherein is the seed thereof, after their kind: and God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening and there was morning, a third day.

14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years: 15 and let them be for lights in the firmament of heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. 16 And God made the two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. 17 And God set them in the firmament of heaven to give light upon the earth, 18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.

20 And God said, Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. 21 And God created the great sea-monsters, and every living creature that moveth, wherewith the waters swarmed, after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind: and God saw that it was good. 22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth. 23 And there was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.

24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind, cattle, and creeping things, and beasts of the earth after their kind: and it was so. 25 And God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creepeth upon the ground after its kind: and God saw that it was good. 26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. 27 And God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them: and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. 29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for food: 30 and to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the heavens, and to everything that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for food: and it was so. 31 And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
