39 At that time the spirit was moving, darkness and silence were everywhere, and no human voice was yet heard.
40 Then you commanded that a ray of light shine out of the room where it was stored, so that your works could be seen.
41 On the second day you created the angel of the sky and commanded him to separate the water, so that part of it would move up above the dome of the sky and part remain below.
42 On the third day you commanded the water that covered the earth to come together in one place and cover one-seventh of the earth's surface. Then you dried out the rest of the earth's surface to make dry land, so that it might be cultivated and planted and used in your service.
43 Your word went out and completed the work immediately.
44 In an instant all kinds of fruits and vegetables appeared, enough kinds to satisfy every taste. There were flowers of indescribable fragrances and of the most magnificent colors. These things were made on the third day.
45 On the fourth day the bright-shining sun, the light of the moon, and the arrangement of the stars were created by your command.
