For this is hidden from them through their own wilfulness, that heavens were of old, and an earth, having its subsistence out of water and in water, by the word of God,
In [the] beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. *He* was in the beginning with God. All things received being through him, and without him not one [thing] received being which has received being.
Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created, and thou renewest the face of the earth.
For *he* spoke, and it was [done]; *he* commanded, and it stood fast.

And God said, Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it be a division between waters and waters.
Hallelujah! Praise Jehovah from the heavens; praise him in the heights. Praise ye him, all his angels; praise ye him, all his hosts. Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars of light. Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens. Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for he it is that commanded, and they were created:
