NIV

1 In the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth,
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 the earth was a formless void and darkness covered the face of the deep, while a wind from God swept over the face of the waters.
2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
3 Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light.
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
4 And God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness.
4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness.
5 God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
6 And God said, "Let there be a dome in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters."
6 And God said, “Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.”
7 So God made the dome and separated the waters that were under the dome from the waters that were above the dome. And it was so.
7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so.
