Genesis 1:1, 26-31A
Chapter 1
In the beginning, when God created the heavens and the earth,
God said:
“Let us make man in our image, in our likeness. Let them rule over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the cattle, the wild animals, and all creeping things that crawl along the ground.”
So God created man in his image; in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
God blessed them and said:
“Be fruitful and increase in number, fill the earth and subdue it, rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the sky, over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
God said:
“I have given you every seed-bearing plant that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree that bears fruit with seed. It will be for your food.
To every wild animal, bird of the sky, everything that creeps along the ground, and everything that has the breath of life, I give every green plant for food.”
So it was.
God saw everything He had made, and it was good. There was evening, and there was morning —the sixth day.
