Evening and morning

SCRIPTUREWorld English Bible · WEB

Genesis 1:1–5

¹In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. ²The earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep and God’s Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters. ³God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. ⁴God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided the light from the darkness. ⁵God called the light “day”, and the darkness he called “night”. There was evening and there was morning, the first day.
