Genesis 1:24-27
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
24 And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures of every kind: cattle and creeping things and wild animals of the earth of every kind.” And it was so. 25 God made the wild animals of the earth of every kind and the cattle of every kind and everything that creeps upon the ground of every kind. And God saw that it was good.(A)

in the image of God he created them;[d]
male and female he created them.(C)
