Genesis 1:5-7
English Standard Version
5 God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
6 And God said, (A)“Let there be an expanse[a] in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.” 7 And God made[b] the expanse and (B)separated the waters that were under the expanse from the waters that were (C)above the expanse. And it was so.
