1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth—
2 Now the earth was formless and empty, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.
3 And God said, “Let there be light!” And there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good, and God caused there to be a separation between the light and between the darkness.
