God's Word Translation

Genesis 1:18-24 God's Word Translation (GW)

18. to dominate the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.

19. There was evening, then morning—a fourth day.

20. Then God said, “Let the water swarm with swimming creatures, and let birds fly through the sky over the earth.”

21. So God created the large sea creatures, every type of creature that swims around in the water and every type of flying bird. God saw that they were good.

22. God blessed them and said, “Be fertile, increase in number, fill the sea, and let there be many birds on the earth.”

23. There was evening, then morning—a fifth day.

24. Then God said, “Let the earth produce every type of living creature: every type of domestic animal, crawling animal, and wild animal.” And so it was.
