In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2
And the earth was a formless and desolate emptiness, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.
3
Then God said, 'Let there be light'; and there was light.
4
God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness.
