Genesis 1:26-2:4

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁶ Furthermore, God said, “Let us make man, in our image, according to our likeness. And let them rule over the fish of the sea, and over the birds, and over the wild animals, and over all the Earth, and over everything that creeps and moves on the Earth.

²⁷ Thus, God created the man in His image. In the image of God, He created him. He created them male and female.

²⁸ And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Bring forth fruit, and multiply. And fill the Earth and subdue it. And rule over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over every wild animal that moves upon the Earth.”

²⁹ And God said, “Behold, I have given to you every plant-bearing seed which is upon all the Earth. And every tree (wherein is the fruit of a tree-bearing seed) shall be food for you.

³⁰ Likewise - to every wild animal of the Earth, and to every bird of the sky, and to everything that moves upon the Earth which has life in itself - every green plant shall be for food.” And it was so.

³¹ And God saw all that He had made. And lo, it was very good. So, the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

2 Thus the heavens and the Earth were finished, and all the host of them.

² For on the seventh day, God ended His work which He had made. And the seventh day, He rested from all His work which He had made.

³ So God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it; because on it, He had rested from all His work which God created and made.

⁴ These are the generations of the heavens and of the Earth - when they were created, on the day that the LORD God made the Earth and the heavens -
