The Creation of the World

1 In the ^(A)beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

¹¹ For ^(A)in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.

⁶ and swore by ^(A)him who lives forever and ever, ^(B)who created heaven and what is in it, the earth and what is in it, and the sea and what is in it, that there would be no more delay,

⁷ And he said with a loud voice, ^(A)“Fear God and ^(B)give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come, and ^(C)worship him who made heaven and earth, the sea and the ^(D)springs of water.”
