Genesis 1:3[edit | edit source]


Genesis 1:2 Genesis 1:3 (KJV) Genesis 1:4
And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness [was] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
And God saw the light, that [it was] good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
