| echad yom elohim raqia tavek mayim |
| first day. 6) And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it |
| badal mayim mayim elohim asah raqia badal mayim |
| divided the waters from the waters. 7) And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which |
| tachath raqia mayim raqia |
| were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. |

| kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. 12) And the earth brought forth |
| deshe eseb zera min ets peri zera |
| grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, |
| min elohim tob ereb boqer |
| after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 13) And the evening and the morning were the |
| shelishi yom elohim maor raqia shamayim badal |
| third day. 14) And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the |
| yom layelah, layil oth moed yom shanah |
| day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: |
| maor raqia shamayim or erets |
| 15) And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: |
| elohim asah gadol maor gadol maor memsheleth yom |
| and it was so. 16) And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the |
| qaton maor memsheleth layelah, layil asah kakab elohim nathan raqia |
| lesser light to rule the night he made the stars also. 17) And God set them in the firmament of |

| the heaven to give light upon the earth, 18) And to rule over the day and over the night, and |
| badal or choshek elohim tob ereb |
| to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good. 19) And the evening and |
| boqer rebii yom elohim mayim sharats |

| sherets nephesh oph uph erets raqia |
| moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament |
| shamayim elohim bara tannin chai nephesh |
| of heaven. 21) And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the |
| mayim sharats min kanaph oph min elohim |
| waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw |
| tob elohim barak parah rabah male mayim |
| that it was good. 22) God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters |
| yam oph rabah erets ereb boqer |
| in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. 23) And the evening and the morning were |
| chamishshi, chamishi yom elohim erets sharats nephesh |
| the fifth day. 24) And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his |
| min behemah remes chaiyah, cheva min elohim |
| kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so. 25) And God |
| asah chaiyah, cheva min behemah min remes |
| made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth |
| erets min elohim tob elohim asah |
| upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good. 26) And God said, Let us make |
| adam tselem demuth radah dagah yam |
| man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and |
| oph behemah erets remes |
| over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over, every creeping thing |
| remes erets elohim bara adam tselem tselem elohim |
| that creepeth upon the earth. 27) So God created man in his own image, in the image of God |
| bara zakar neqebah bara elohim barak elohim |
| created he him; male and female created he them. 28) And God blessed them, and God said unto |
| parah rabah male erets kabash radah |
| them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the |
| dagah yam oph chaiyah |
| fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the |
| erets elohim hinneh eseb zera |
| earth. 29) And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the |
| panim erets ets peri ets zera |
| face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it |
| oklah chaiyah, cheva erets oph |
| shall be for meat. 30) And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to |
| remes erets nephesh yereq |
| every thing that creepeth upon the earth, where in there is life, I have given every green |
| eseb oklah elohim asah |
| herb for meat: and it was so. 31) And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, |
| meod tob ereb
boqer shishshi yom shamayim |
| it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day. 2:1) Thus the heavens |
| erets kalah tsaba shebii yom elohim kalah |
| and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. 2) And on the seventh day God ended his |
| melakah asah shabath shebii yom melakah asah |
| work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he made. |
| elohim barak shebii yom qadesh shabath |
| 3) And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all |
| melakah elohim bara asah |
| his work which God created and made. |
