- In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
- And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
- And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
- So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
- And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
- I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
- And I will establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
- And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
- And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
- And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
He only is my rock and my salvation:
he is my defence; I shall not be moved.
