IN THE BE∣GINNING, GOD [unspec 1] created the Hea∣vens and the [unspec 2] earth. And the earth was empty and voide; and darkenesse, was upon the face of the deepe: and the Spirit of God, moved upon the face of the waters. And God sayd, Let there bee [unspec 3] light: and there was light. And God saw [unspec 4] the light, that it was good: and God sepa∣rated betweene the light and the darkenesse. And God called the light Day; and the dark∣nesse he called Night: and the evening was, [unspec 5] and the morning was, the first day.
And God said; Let there be an Out-spred [unspec 6] firmament, in the midst of the waters: and let it separate, betweene waters and waters. And God made the Outspred-firmament; and separated betweene the waters which [unspec 7] were under the outspred-firmament, and the waters which were above the outspred-fir∣mament: and it was so. And God called the [unspec 8] outspred-firmament, Heavens: and the eve∣ning was, and the morning was, the second day.
And God sayd; Let the waters under the [unspec 9] heavens bee gathered-together, unto one place; and let the dry-land appeare: and it was so. And God called the dry land, Earth: [unspec 10] and the gathering together of the waters, he called Seas: and God saw, that it was good. And God said; Let the earth bud-forth the [unspec 11] budding-grasse, the herbe seeding-seed, the fruit-tree yeelding-fruit after his kinde, whose seed is in it selfe, upon the earth: and it was so. And the earth brought-forth [unspec 12] budding-grasse, the herb seeding-seed, after his kinde; and the tree yeelding fruit, whose seed was in it selfe, after his kinde: and God saw, that it was good. And the evening was, [unspec 13] and the morning was, the third day.
And God sayd; Let there be lights in the [unspec 14] outspred-firmament of the heavens, to sepa∣rate betweene the day and the night; and let them be for signes, and for seasons; and for dayes, and yeares. And let them be for lights [unspec 15] in the outspred-firmament of the heavens, to give light upon the earth: and it was so: And God made the two great Lights: the [unspec 16] greater light, for the rule of the day; and the lesser light, for the rule of the night; also the starres. And God set them in the outspred-firmament [unspec 17] of the heavens; to giue light up∣on the earth. And to rule over the day and [unspec 18] over the night; and to separate betweene the light and the darkenesse: and God saw that it was good. And the evening was, and the [unspec 19] morning was, the fourth day.
And GOD sayd; Let the waters bring [unspec 20] forth abundantly, the moving-thing, the li∣ving soule: and fowle, that may flye above the earth, on the face of the outspred-firma∣ment of the heavens. And God created the [unspec 21] great Whales: and every living creeping soule, which the waters brought forth
