Genesis 1:22-24

EasyEnglish Bible

²² God blessed the animals and the birds. He said to them, ‘Give birth to many young ones, so that you grow in number. Fill all the water in the seas. The birds also should become very many, all across the earth.’^[a]

²³ Evening passed and then it was morning.

That was the fifth day.

²⁴ God said, ‘Different kinds of animals will now appear on the land. There will be farm animals and wild animals. There will also be other small animals that move along the ground. There will be many kinds of animals and each kind will be different.’^[b]

And what God said happened.
