Die Schöpfung
1 Im Anfang schuf Gott den Himmel und die Erde.
2 Und die Erde war wüst und leer, und es lag Finsternis auf der Tiefe, und der Geist Gottes schwebte über den Wassern.
3 Und Gott sprach: Es werde Licht! Und es ward Licht. 4 Und Gott sah, daß das Licht gut war; da schied Gott das Licht von der Finsternis; 5 und Gott nannte das Licht Tag, und die Finsternis Nacht. Und es wurde Abend, und es wurde Morgen, der erste Tag.
6 Und Gott sprach: Es soll eine Feste entstehen inmitten der Wasser, die bilde eine Scheidewand zwischen den Gewässern! 7 Und Gott machte die Feste und schied das Wasser unter der Feste von dem Wasser über der Feste, daß es so wurde. 8 Und Gott nannte die Feste Himmel. Und es wurde Abend, und es wurde Morgen: der zweite Tag.
9 Und Gott sprach: Es sammle sich das Wasser unter dem Himmel an einen Ort, daß man das Trockene sehe! Und es geschah so. 10 Und Gott nannte das Trockene Land; aber die Sammlung der Wasser nannte er Meer. Und Gott sah, daß es gut war. 11 Und Gott sprach: Es lasse die Erde grünes Gras sprossen und Gewächs, das Samen trägt, fruchtbare Bäume, deren jeder seine besondere Art Früchte bringt, in welcher ihr Same sei auf Erden! Und es geschah so. 12 Und die Erde brachte hervor Gras und Gewächs, das Samen trägt nach seiner Art, und Bäume, welche Früchte bringen, in welchen ihr Same ist nach ihrer Art. Und Gott sah, daß es gut war. 13 Und es wurde Abend, und es wurde Morgen: der dritte Tag.
14 Und Gott sprach: Es seien Lichter an der Himmelsfeste, zur Unterscheidung von Tag und Nacht, die sollen zur Bestimmung der Zeiten und der Tage und Jahre dienen, 15 und zu Leuchtern an der Himmelsfeste, daß sie die Erde beleuchten! Und es geschah so. 16 Und Gott machte die zwei großen Lichter, das große Licht zur Beherrschung des Tages und das kleinere Licht zur Beherrschung der Nacht; dazu die Sterne. 17 Und Gott setzte sie an die Himmelsfeste, damit sie die Erde beleuchteten 18 und den Tag und die Nacht beherrschten und Licht und Finsternis unterschieden. Und Gott sah, daß es gut war. 19 Und es wurde Abend, und es wurde Morgen: der vierte Tag.
20 Und Gott sprach: Das Wasser soll wimmeln von einer Fülle lebendiger Wesen, und es sollen Vögel fliegen über die Erde, an der Himmelsfeste dahin! 21 Und Gott schuf die großen Fische und alles, was da lebt und webt, wovon das Wasser wimmelt, nach ihren Gattungen, dazu allerlei Vögel nach ihren Gattungen. Und Gott sah, daß es gut war. 22 Und Gott segnete sie und sprach: Seid fruchtbar und mehrt euch und füllt das Wasser im Meere, und das Geflügel mehre sich auf Erden! 23 Und es wurde Abend, und. es wurde Morgen: der fünfte Tag.
24 Und Gott sprach: Die Erde bringe hervor lebendige Wesen nach ihrer Art, Vieh, Gewürm und Tiere des Feldes nach ihrer Art! Und es geschah so. 25 Und Gott machte die Tiere des Feldes nach ihrer Art und das Vieh nach seiner Art. Und Gott sah, daß es gut war.
Erschaffung des Menschen
26 Und Gott sprach: Wir wollen Menschen machen nach unserem Bild uns ähnlich; die sollen herrschen über die Fische im Meer und über die Vögel des Himmels und über das Vieh auf der ganzen Erde, auch über alles, was auf Erden kriecht!
27 Und Gott schuf den Menschen ihm zum Bilde, zum Bilde Gottes schuf er ihn; als Mann und Frau[a] schuf er sie.
28 Und Gott segnete sie und sprach zu ihnen: Seid fruchtbar und mehrt euch und füllt die Erde und macht sie euch untertan und herrscht über die Fische im Meer und über die Vögel des Himmels und über alles Lebendige, was auf Erden kriecht!
29 Und Gott sprach: Siehe, ich habe euch alles Gewächs auf Erden gegeben, das Samen trägt, auch alle Bäume, an welchen Früchte sind, die Samen tragen; sie sollen euch zur Nahrung dienen; 30 aber allen Tieren der Erde und allen Vögeln des Himmels und allem, was auf Erden kriecht, allem, was eine lebendige Seele hat, habe ich alles grüne Kraut zur Nahrung gegeben. Und es geschah so.
31 Und Gott sah an alles, was er gemacht hatte, und siehe, es war sehr gut. Und es wurde Abend, und es wurde Morgen: der sechste Tag.

The Beginning
1 In the beginning(A) God created(B) the heavens(C) and the earth.(D) 2 Now the earth was formless(E) and empty,(F) darkness was over the surface of the deep,(G) and the Spirit of God(H) was hovering(I) over the waters.
3 And God said,(J) “Let there be light,” and there was light.(K) 4 God saw that the light was good,(L) and he separated the light from the darkness.(M) 5 God called(N) the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.”(O) And there was evening, and there was morning(P)—the first day.
6 And God said,(Q) “Let there be a vault(R) between the waters(S) to separate water from water.” 7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it.(T) And it was so.(U) 8 God called(V) the vault “sky.”(W) And there was evening, and there was morning(X)—the second day.
9 And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place,(Y) and let dry ground(Z) appear.” And it was so.(AA) 10 God called(AB) the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters(AC) he called “seas.”(AD) And God saw that it was good.(AE)
11 Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation:(AF) seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.(AG)” And it was so.(AH) 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds(AI) and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.(AJ) 13 And there was evening, and there was morning(AK)—the third day.
14 And God said, “Let there be lights(AL) in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night,(AM) and let them serve as signs(AN) to mark sacred times,(AO) and days and years,(AP) 15 and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so.(AQ) 16 God made two great lights—the greater light(AR) to govern(AS) the day and the lesser light to govern(AT) the night.(AU) He also made the stars.(AV) 17 God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, 18 to govern the day and the night,(AW) and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good.(AX) 19 And there was evening, and there was morning(AY)—the fourth day.
20 And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures,(AZ) and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.”(BA) 21 So God created(BB) the great creatures of the sea(BC) and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it,(BD) according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind.(BE) And God saw that it was good.(BF) 22 God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.”(BG) 23 And there was evening, and there was morning(BH)—the fifth day.
24 And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures(BI) according to their kinds:(BJ) the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so.(BK) 25 God made the wild animals(BL) according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds.(BM) And God saw that it was good.(BN)
26 Then God said, “Let us(BO) make mankind(BP) in our image,(BQ) in our likeness,(BR) so that they may rule(BS) over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky,(BT) over the livestock and all the wild animals,[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
27 So God created(BU) mankind(BV) in his own image,(BW)
in the image of God(BX) he created them;
male and female(BY) he created them.(BZ)
28 God blessed them and said to them,(CA) “Be fruitful and increase in number;(CB) fill the earth(CC) and subdue it. Rule over(CD) the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.(CE)”
29 Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.(CF) 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life(CG) in it—I give every green plant for food.(CH)” And it was so.
31 God saw all that he had made,(CI) and it was very good.(CJ) And there was evening, and there was morning(CK)—the sixth day.

The Creation of the World
1 In the (A)beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was (B)without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
3 And God said, (C)“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. 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, (D)“Let there be an expanse[a] in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.” 7 And God made[b] the expanse and (E)separated the waters that were under the expanse from the waters that were (F)above the expanse. And it was so. 8 And God called the expanse Heaven.[c] And there was evening and there was morning, the second day.
9 And God said, (G)“Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear.” And it was so. 10 God called the dry land Earth,[d] and the waters that were gathered together he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
11 And God said, (H)“Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants[e] yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind, on the earth.” And it was so. 12 The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed according to their own kinds, and trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 13 And there was evening and there was morning, the third day.
14 And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for (I)signs and for (J)seasons,[f] and for days and years, 15 and let them be lights in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth.” And it was so. 16 And God (K)made the two great lights—the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night—and the stars. 17 And God set them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth, 18 to (L)rule over the day and over the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19 And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day.
20 And God said, “Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds[g] fly above the earth across the expanse of the heavens.” 21 So (M)God created the great sea creatures and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarm, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 And God blessed them, saying, (N)“Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.” 23 And there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day.
24 And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds—livestock and creeping things and beasts of the earth according to their kinds.” And it was so. 25 And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds and the livestock according to their kinds, and everything that creeps on the ground according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
26 Then God said, (O)“Let us make man[h] in our image, (P)after our likeness. And (Q)let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”
27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
(R)male and female he created them.
28 And God blessed them. And God said to them, (S)“Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” 29 And God said, “Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit. (T)You shall have them for food. 30 And (U)to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the heavens and to everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the breath of life, I have given every green plant for food.” And it was so. 31 (V)And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
