The Beginning
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
-
So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
-
So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
-
Adam and Eve
This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created, when the Lord God made the earth and the heavens.
-
From Adam to Noah
This is the written account of Adam’s family line. When God created mankind, he made them in the likeness of God.
-
He created them male and female and blessed them. And he named them “Mankind” when they were created.
-
So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.”
-
The Lord Is God
Ask now about the former days, long before your time, from the day God created human beings on the earth; ask from one end of the heavens to the other. Has anything so great as this ever happened, or has anything like it ever been heard of?
-
You created the north and the south; Tabor and Hermon sing for joy at your name.
-
Remember how fleeting is my life. For what futility you have created all humanity!
-
Let this be written for a future generation, that a people not yet created may praise the Lord:
-
When you send your Spirit, they are created, and you renew the face of the ground.
-
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
-
Let them praise the name of the Lord, for at his command they were created,
-
This only have I found: God created mankind upright, but they have gone in search of many schemes.”
-
Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all these? He who brings out the starry host one by one and calls forth each of them by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not one of them is missing.
-
so that people may see and know, may consider and understand, that the hand of the Lord has done this, that the Holy One of Israel has created it.
-
Israel’s Only Savior
But now, this is what the Lord says— he who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
-
everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.”
-
“You heavens above, rain down my righteousness; let the clouds shower it down. Let the earth open wide, let salvation spring up, let righteousness flourish with it; I, the Lord, have created it.
-
It is I who made the earth and created mankind on it. My own hands stretched out the heavens; I marshaled their starry hosts.
-
For this is what the Lord says— he who created the heavens, he is God; he who fashioned and made the earth, he founded it; he did not create it to be empty, but formed it to be inhabited— he says: “I am the Lord, and there is no other.
-
They are created now, and not long ago; you have not heard of them before today. So you cannot say, ‘Yes, I knew of them.’
-
“See, it is I who created the blacksmith who fans the coals into flame and forges a weapon fit for its work. And it is I who have created the destroyer to wreak havoc;
-
I will not accuse them forever, nor will I always be angry, for then they would faint away because of me— the very people I have created.
