Genesis

In [the] beginning, the Theos made the heaven and the earth.

Now, the earth was invisible and unmade, and darkness [being] upon the abyss. And Theos' spirit brought forward [from] above the water.

And the Theos said: "Come into being: light." And there was light.

And the Theos beheld the light that [it being] good. And the Theos parted between the light and between the darkness.

And the Theos called the light 'day', and called the darkness 'night'. And there was evening, and there was morning: [the] first day.

And the Theos said: "Come into being: a firmness in the midst of the water, and let it be for parting between water and water." And it happened in this way:

And the Theos brought forth the firmness. And the Theos parted between the water which was underneath the firmness and between the water above the firmness.

And the Theos called the firmness 'heaven'. And the Theos beheld that [it being] good. And there was evening, and there was morning: [the] second day.

And the Theos said: "Let be gathered together the water underneath the heaven into one gathering, and let be seen the dry." And it happened in this way: and the water underneath the heaven gathered together into its gatherings, and the dry appeared.

And the Theos called the dry 'earth', and called the systems of water 'of the sea'. And the Theos beheld that [it being] good.

And the Theos said: "Let the earth make to grow food of grass sowing seed according to kind, and according to likeness, and the fruitful tree making fruit which seed is in it, according to kind, upon the earth." And it happened in this way:

And the earth brought forth food of grass sowing seed according to kind, and according to likeness, and the fruitful tree making fruit which seed is in it, according to kind, on the earth.

And the Theos beheld that [it being] good. And there was evening, and there was morning: [the] third day.

And the Theos said: "Come into being: luminaries in the firmness of the heaven for giving light upon the earth, to part between the day and between the night. And let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and for years.

And let them be for light in the firmness of the heaven, so as to shine upon the earth." And it happened in this way:

And the Theos made the two great luminaries: the greater luminary into leading the day and the lesser light into leading the night and the stars.

And the Theos put them in the firmness of the heaven, so as to shine upon the earth,

and to lead the day and the night, and to part between the light and between the darkness. And the Theos beheld that [it being] good.

And there was evening, and there was morning: [the] fourth day.

And the Theos said: "Let the waters bring forth the crawling of living soul and the winged flying above the earth below the firmness of heaven." And it happened in this way:

And the Theos made the huge water beings, and every crawling of living soul, which the waters brought forth, according to their kind, and every feathered winged [creature] according to kind. And the Theos beheld that [it being] good.

And the Theos blessed them saying: "Increase and multiply, and fill the waters in the sea. And let the winged be multiplied over the earth."

And there was evening, and there was morning: [the] fifth day.

And the Theos said: "Let the earth bring forth living soul according to kind: four-footed and creeping [creatures] and wild beasts of the earth according to kind". And it happened in this way:

And the Theos made the wild beasts of the earth according to kind, and the beasts of burden according to their kind, and all the crawling [creatures] of the earth according to kind. And the Theos beheld that [it being] good.

And the Theos said: "Let us make [the] human according to our image and according to likeness. And let them rule over the fishes of the sea, and the winged [creatures] of the heaven, and the cattle, and all the earth, and all the crawling [creatures] crawling upon the earth."

And the Theos made the human. According to Theos' image he made him. Male and female, he made them.

And the Theos blessed them, saying: "Increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and master it. And lead the fishes of the sea, and the winged [creatures] of the heaven, and the whole cattle, and all the earth, and all the crawling, crawling upon the earth."

And the Theos said: "Behold, I have given to you every grass bearing sowing seed which is upon the earth, and every tree which has in itself the sowing seed of fruit: to you it shall be for food,

and to all the wild beasts of the earth, and to all the winged [creatures] of the heaven, and to every crawling [creature] crawling upon the earth, which has in itself the soul of life, even every green grass for food." And it happened in this way.

And the Theos beheld all as many as he made. And behold: [it being] very good. And there was evening, and there was morning: [the] sixth day.
