And the Spirit d of God moved upon the face of the waters. 3 And God said, e Let there be light, fand there was light. 4 And God saw the light, that it was good and God divided 1 the light from the darkness. 5 And God called the light g Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were 2 the first day. 6 And God said, h Let there be a 3 firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. 7 And God made the firmament, i and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above k the firmament and it was so. 8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. 9 And God I said, Let the waters under the heaven 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 m5 bring forth 4 grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit-tree yielding n fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was Job 38.4. f2 Cor.4.6. 1 betw en the | 14 T And God said, Let there be o lights in the firmament of the heaven, to divide the 5 day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for p seasons, and for days, and years: 15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven, to give light upon the earth: and it was so. 16 And God made two great lights; the greater light 6 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 the heaven, to give light upon the earth. 18 And to q 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 the evening and the morning were the fourth day. 20 T And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the 7 moving creature that hath 8 life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the 10 open firmament of heaven. 21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that Job 37.18.moveth, which the waters brought 3 expansion. forth abundantly after their kind, i Jer. 10. 12. and every winged fowl after his k Pr.8.28. kind: and God saw that it was good.

And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat. 14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field: upon thy belly shalt thou go, and k dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life: 15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between lthy seed and m her seed; n it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. 16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception: in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be 5 to thy husband, and he shall o rule over thee. 17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast 3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, c Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, h 1Jno.3.20. eaten of the tree, of which I comlest ye die. 4 And the serpent d said unto the e woman, Ye shall not surely die: 5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened; and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. 6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was 2 pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof. and did eat; and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did Job 31.33.
