in the beginning God created the heaven and the earth .
and the earth was without form , and void ; and darkness was upon the face of the deep . 
and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters .
and God said , let there be light : and there was light .
and God saw the light , that it was good : and God divided the light from the darkness .
and God called the light day , and the darkness he called night . 
and the evening and the morning were the first day .
and God said , let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters , and let it divide the waters from the waters .
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 .
and God called the firmament heaven . 
and the evening and the morning were the second day .
and God said , let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place , and let the dry land appear : and it was so .
and God called the dry land earth ; and the gathering together of the waters called he seas .
