1
In the beginning God created the heavens and the eretz.
2
Now the eretz was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep. God's Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.
3
God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
4
God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided the light from the darkness.
5
God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. There was evening and there was morning, one day.
6
God said, "Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters."
