Book 01 Genesis
001:001 In the beginning God{After "God," the Hebrew has the two letters
"Aleph Tav" (the first and last letters of the Hebrew alphabet)
as a grammatical marker.} created the heavens and the earth.
001:002 Now the earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface
of the deep. God's Spirit was hovering over the surface
of the waters.
001:003 God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
001:004 God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided
the light from the darkness.
001:005 God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night.
There was evening and there was morning, one day.
001:006 God said, "Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters,
and let it divide the waters from the waters."
001:007 God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under
the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse;
and it was so.
001:008 God called the expanse sky. There was evening and there
was morning, a second day.
001:009 God said, "Let the waters under the sky be gathered together
to one place, and let the dry land appear;" and it was so.
001:010 God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together
of the waters he called Seas. God saw that it was good.
001:011 God said, "Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed,
and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, with its seed
in it, on the earth;" and it was so.
