1 No princípio criou Deus o céu e a terra.
2 E a terra era sem forma e vazia; e havia trevas sobre a face do abismo; e o Espírito de Deus se movia sobre a face das águas.
3 E disse Deus: Haja luz; e houve luz.
4 E viu Deus que era boa a luz; e fez Deus separação entre a luz e as trevas.
5 E Deus chamou à luz Dia; e às trevas chamou Noite. E foi a tarde e a manhã, o dia primeiro.
6 E disse Deus: Haja uma expansão no meio das águas, e haja separação entre águas e águas.
7 E fez Deus a expansão, e fez separação entre as águas que estavam debaixo da expansão e as águas que estavam sobre a expansão; e assim foi.
8 E chamou Deus à expansão Céus, e foi a tarde e a manhã, o dia segundo.
9 E disse Deus: Ajuntem-se as águas debaixo dos céus num lugar; e apareça a porção seca; e assim foi.
10 E chamou Deus à porção seca Terra; e ao ajuntamento das águas chamou Mares; e viu Deus que era bom.
11 E disse Deus: Produza a terra erva verde, erva que dê semente, árvore frutífera que dê fruto segundo a sua espécie, cuja semente está nela sobre a terra; e assim foi.
12 E a terra produziu erva, erva dando semente conforme a sua espécie, e a árvore frutífera, cuja semente está nela conforme a sua espécie; e viu Deus que era bom.
13 E foi a tarde e a manhã, o dia terceiro.
14 E disse Deus: Haja luminares na expansão dos céus, para haver separação entre o dia e a noite; e sejam eles para sinais e para tempos determinados e para dias e anos.
15 E sejam para luminares na expansão dos céus, para iluminar a terra; e assim foi.
16 E fez Deus os dois grandes luminares: o luminar maior para governar o dia, e o luminar menor para governar a noite; e fez as estrelas.
17 E Deus os pôs na expansão dos céus para iluminar a terra,
18 E para governar o dia e a noite, e para fazer separação entre a luz e as trevas; e viu Deus que era bom.
19 E foi a tarde e a manhã, o dia quarto.
20 E disse Deus: Produzam as águas abundantemente répteis de alma vivente; e voem as aves sobre a face da expansão dos céus.
21 E Deus criou as grandes baleias, e todo o réptil de alma vivente que as águas abundantemente produziram conforme as suas espécies; e toda a ave de asas conforme a sua espécie; e viu Deus que era bom.
22 E Deus os abençoou, dizendo: Frutificai e multiplicai-vos, e enchei as águas nos mares; e as aves se multipliquem na terra.
23 E foi a tarde e a manhã, o dia quinto.
24 E disse Deus: Produza a terra alma vivente conforme a sua espécie; gado, e répteis e feras da terra conforme a sua espécie; e assim foi.
25 E fez Deus as feras da terra conforme a sua espécie, e o gado conforme a sua espécie, e todo o réptil da terra conforme a sua espécie; e viu Deus que era bom.
26 E disse Deus: Façamos o homem à nossa imagem, conforme a nossa semelhança; e domine sobre os peixes do mar, e sobre as aves dos céus, e sobre o gado, e sobre toda a terra, e sobre todo o réptil que se move sobre a terra.
27 E criou Deus o homem à sua imagem; à imagem de Deus o criou; homem e mulher os criou.
28 E Deus os abençoou, e Deus lhes disse: Frutificai e multiplicai-vos, e enchei a terra, e sujeitai-a; e dominai sobre os peixes do mar e sobre as aves dos céus, e sobre todo o animal que se move sobre a terra.
29 E disse Deus: Eis que vos tenho dado toda a erva que dê semente, que está sobre a face de toda a terra; e toda a árvore, em que há fruto que dê semente, ser-vos-á para mantimento.
30 E a todo o animal da terra, e a toda a ave dos céus, e a todo o réptil da terra, em que há alma vivente, toda a erva verde será para mantimento; e assim foi.
31 E viu Deus tudo quanto tinha feito, e eis que era muito bom; e foi a tarde e a manhã, o dia sexto.
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 And the earth was waste and empty, and darkness was on the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light. And there was light.
4 And God saw the light that it was good; and God divided between the light and the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening, and there was morning-the first day.
6 And God said, Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it be a division between waters and waters.
7 And God made the expanse, and divided between the waters that are under the expanse and the waters that are above the expanse; and it was so.
8 And God called the expanse Heavens. And there was evening, and there was morning-a second day.
9 And God said, Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together to one place, and let the dry {land} appear. And it was so.
10 And God called the dry {land} Earth, and the gathering together of the waters he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
11 And God said, Let the earth cause grass to spring up, herb producing seed, fruit-trees yielding fruit after their kind, the seed of which is in them, on the earth. And it was so.
12 And the earth brought forth grass, herb producing seed after its kind, and trees yielding fruit, the seed of which is in them, after their 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 expanse of the heavens, to divide between the day and the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;
15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth. And it was so.
16 And God made the two great lights, the great light to rule the day, and the small light to rule the night, -and the stars.
17 And God set them in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth,
18 and to rule during the day and during the night, and to divide between the light and the 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 souls, and let fowl fly above the earth in the expanse of the heavens.
21 And God created the great sea monsters, and every living soul that moves with which the waters swarm, after their kind, and every winged fowl after 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 fowl 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 souls after their kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth, after their kind. And it was so.
25 And God made the beast of the earth after its kind, and the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing of the ground after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over the whole earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth on the earth.
27 And God created Man in his image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28 And God blessed them; and God said to them, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heavens, and over every animal that moveth on the earth.
29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb producing seed that is on the whole earth, and every tree in which is the fruit of a tree producing seed: it shall be food for you;
30 and to every animal of the earth, and to every fowl of the heavens, and to everything that creepeth on the earth, in which is a living soul, every green herb for food. And it was so.
31 And God saw everything that he had made, and behold it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning-the sixth day.
