    5God called the light“day” and the darkness“night.” There was evening, and there was morning, marking the first day.

    6God said,“Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters and let it separate water from water.”

    7So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. It was so.

    8God called the expanse“sky.” There was evening, and there was morning, a second day.

    9God said,“Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place and let dry ground appear.” It was so.

    10God called the dry ground“land” and the gathered waters he called“seas.” God saw that it was good.

    11God said,“Let the land produce vegetation: plants yielding seeds and trees on the land bearing fruit with seed in it, according to their kinds.” It was so.

    12The land produced vegetation– plants yielding seeds according to their kinds, and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. God saw that it was good.

    13There was evening, and there was morning, a third day.

    14God said,“Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them be signs to indicate seasons and days and years,

    16God made two great lights– the greater light to rule over the day and the lesser light to rule over the night. He made the stars also.

    17God placed the lights in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth,

    18to preside over the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.

    19There was evening, and there was morning, a fourth day.
