Genesis. God said, let the water team with an abundance of living creatures and on earth let birds fly beneath the dome of the sky. And so it happened. God created the great sea monsters and all kinds of swimming creatures with which the water teams and all kinds of winged birds

god saw how good it was and god blessed them saying be fertile multiply and fill the water of the seas

and let the birds multiply on the earth evening came and morning followed the fifth day then god said

let the earth bring forth all kinds of living creatures cattle creeping things and wild animals of all kinds

and so it happened god made all kinds of wild animals of all kinds. And so it happened. God made all kinds of wild animals,

all kinds of cattle, and all kinds of creeping things of the earth. God saw how good it was.

Then God said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness.

Let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and the cattle,

and over all the wild animals and all the creatures that crawl on the ground.

God created man in his image, in the divine image he created him.

Male and female, he created them. God blessed them, saying, be fertile and multiply,

fill the earth and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, and all the living things that move on the earth.

God also said, see, I give you every seed-bearing plant all over the earth and every tree that has seed-bearing fruit on it to be your food and to all the animals

of the land all the birds of the air and all the living creatures that crawl on the ground i give all

the green plants for food and so it happened god looked at everything he had made and he found it very good. Evening came and morning followed the sixth day. Thus the heavens and the earth and all their array were completed. Since on the seventh day, God was finished with the work he had been doing

he rested on the seventh day from all the work he had undertaken so God blessed

the seventh day and made it holy because on it he rested from all the work he had done in creation such is the story of the heavens and the earth at their creation the word of the lord

thanks be to god o lord our god how wonderful your name in all the earth.

Oh, Lord, our God, how wonderful your name in all the earth.

When I behold your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you set in place. What is man that you should be mindful of him, or the son of man that you should care for him?

Oh, Lord of God, how wonderful your name in all the earth. You have made him little less than the angels and crowned him with the glory and honor you have given him

rule over the works of your hands putting all things under his feet oh lord our god how wonderful your name
