11. And God said, “Let the earth produce green plants that will bear seed—fruit trees bearing fruit in which there is seed—according to its kind, on the earth.” And it was so.
12. And the earth brought forth green plants bearing seed according to its kind, and trees bearing fruit in which there was seed according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
13. And there was evening and there was morning, a third day.
14. And God said, “Let there be lights in the vaulted dome of heaven to separate day from night, and let them be as signs and for appointed times, and for days and years,
15. and they shall be as lights in the vaulted dome of heaven to give light on the earth.” And it was so.
16. And God made two lights, the greater light to rule the day and the smaller light to rule the night, and the stars.
17. And God placed them in the vaulted dome of heaven to give light on the earth
18. and to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good.
19. And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
20. And God said, “Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly over the earth across the face of the vaulted dome of heaven.
21. So God created the great sea creatures and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarm, according to their kind, and every bird with wings according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
22. And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the birds multiply on the earth.”
23. And there was evening, and there was morning, a fifth day.
24. And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kind: cattle and moving things, and wild animals according to their kind.” And it was so.
