4 God was pleased with what he saw. Then he separated the light from the darkness,
5 and he named the light “Day” and the darkness “Night”. Evening passed and morning came — that was the first day.
6-7 Then God commanded, “Let there be a dome to divide the water and to keep it in two separate places” — and it was done. So God made a dome, and it separated the water under it from the water above it.
8 He named the dome “Sky”. Evening passed and morning came — that was the second day.
9 Then God commanded, “Let the water below the sky come together in one place, so that the land will appear” — and it was done.
10 He named the land “Earth”, and the water which had come together he named “Sea”. And God was pleased with what he saw.
11 Then he commanded, “Let the earth produce all kinds of plants, those that bear grain and those that bear fruit” — and it was done.
