Genesis 1:1 In-Context

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness covered the surface of the watery depths, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.
3 Then God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
4 God saw that the light was good, and God separated the light from the darkness.
5 God called the light "day," and He called the darkness "night." Evening came, and then morning: the first day.
