Genesis 1:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 And God called the Light, Day, and the darkness he called Night. [a]So the evening and the morning were the first day.
6 ¶ Again God said, (A)Let there be a [b]firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.
7 Then God made the firmament, and separated the waters, which were [c]under the firmament, from the waters which were (B)above the firmament: and it was so.
