The Third Day—Dry Land and Plants

⁹ Then God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered together so that the dry land will appear.” And it happened. ¹⁰ God named the dry land “earth,” and he named the water that was gathered together “seas.” And God saw that this was good.

¹¹ Then God said, “Let the earth grow grass, plants that make grain, and fruit trees. The fruit trees will make fruit with seeds in it. And each plant will make its own kind of seed. Let these plants grow on the earth.” And it happened.
