Pakurirana nevamwe

God said, “Now we will make humans, and they will be like us. We will let them rule the fish, the birds, and all other living creatures.” So God created humans to be like himself; he made men and women.

God gave them his blessing and said: Have a lot of children! Fill the earth with people and bring it under your control. Rule over the fish in the ocean, the birds in the sky, and every animal on the earth.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

The earth was barren, with no form of life; it was under a roaring ocean covered with darkness. But the Spirit of God was moving over the water.

God said, “I command light to shine!” And light started shining.

God looked at what he had done. All of it was very good! Evening came, then morning—that was the sixth day.

God looked at the light and saw that it was good. He separated light from darkness

I have provided all kinds of fruit and grain for you to eat.

and named the light “Day” and the darkness “Night.” Evening came, then morning—that was the first day.

God said, “I command a dome to separate the water above it from the water below it.”

And I have given the green plants as food for everything else that breathes, including animals, both wild and tame, and birds. And so it was.

God said, “I command lights to appear in the sky and to separate day from night and to show the time for seasons, special days, and years.

God said, “I command the earth to produce all kinds of plants, including fruit trees and grain.” And that's what happened.

And that's what happened. God made the dome

The earth produced all kinds of vegetation. God looked at what he had done, and it was good.

God made two powerful lights, the brighter one to rule the day and the other to rule the night. He also made the stars.

God said, “I command the water under the sky to come together in one place, so there will be dry ground.” And that's what happened. God named the dry ground “Land,” and he named the water “Ocean.” God looked at what he had done and saw that it was good.

Then he gave the living creatures his blessing—he told the ocean creatures to increase and live everywhere in the ocean and the birds to increase everywhere on earth.

God said, “I command the earth to give life to all kinds of tame animals, wild animals, and reptiles.” And that's what happened.

God said, “I command the ocean to be full of living creatures, and I command birds to fly above the earth.”

God made every one of them. Then he looked at what he had done, and it was good.
