And the evening and the morning were the first day.Genesis 1:6And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.Genesis 1:7And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.Genesis 1:8And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.Genesis 1:9And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.Genesis 1:10And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
