Genesis 1:7-12

New American Standard Bible

⁷ God made the ^[a]expanse, and separated ^(A)the waters that were below the ^[b]expanse from the waters ^(B)that were above the ^[c]expanse; and it was so. ⁸ God called the ^[d]expanse “heaven.” And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.

⁹ Then God said, “^(C)Let the waters below the heavens be gathered into one place, and let ^(D)the dry land appear”; and it was so. ¹⁰ And God called the dry land “earth,” and the ^(E)gathering of the waters He called “seas”; and God saw that it was good. ¹¹ Then God said, “Let the earth sprout ^[e](F)vegetation, ^[f]plants yielding seed, and fruit trees on the earth bearing fruit according to ^[g]their kind ^[h]with seed in them”; and it was so. ¹² The earth produced ^[i]vegetation, ^[j]plants yielding seed according to ^[k]their kind, and trees bearing fruit ^[l]with seed in them, according to ^[m]their kind; and God saw that it was good.
