Genesis 1:1-6

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

1 In the beginning God created heaven, and earth.

² And the earth was void and empty, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God moved over the waters.

³ And God said: Be light made. And light was made.

⁴ And God saw the light that it was good; and he divided the light from the darkness.

⁵ And he called the light Day, and the darkness Night; and there was evening and morning one day.

⁶ And God said: Let there be a firmament made amidst the waters: and let it divide the waters from the waters.
