Genesis 1:11-13
1599 Geneva Bible
11 Then God said, [a]Let the earth bud forth the bud of the herb, that seedeth seed, the fruitful tree, which beareth fruit according to his kind, which hath his seed in itself upon the earth: and it was so.
12 And the earth brought forth the bud of the herb, that seedeth seed according to his kind, also the tree that beareth fruit, which hath his seed in itself according to his kind: and God [b]saw that it was good.
13 So the evening and the morning were the third day.
