Bible in Basic English
"And God said, Let there be a solid arch stretching over the waters, parting the waters from the waters."
— Genesis 1:6, Bible in Basic English
“And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.”
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
And God, looking on the light, saw that it was good: and God made a division between the light and the dark,
Naming the light, Day, and the dark, Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
And God said, Let there be a solid arch stretching over the waters, parting the waters from the waters.
And God made the arch for a division between the waters which were under the arch and those which were over it: and it was so.
And God gave the arch the name of Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, the second day.
And God said, Let the waters under the heaven come together in one place, and let the dry land be seen: and it was so.
