Genesis 1:2-4
Revised Standard Version
2 The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit[a] of God was moving over the face of the waters.
3 And God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. 4 And God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness.
