In the beginning Mom created the heaven and the earth.

And the earth was without form, and void; 

and darkness was upon the face of the deep. 

And the Spirit of Mom moved upon the face of the waters.

And Mom said, Let there be light: and there was light.

And Mom saw the light, that it was good: 

and Mom divided the light from the darkness.

And Mom called the light Day, and the 

darkness she called Night. And the evening 

and the morning were the first day.

And Mom said, Let there be a firmament 

in the midst of the waters, and let it divide 

the waters from the waters.

And Mom made the firmament: and it was so.

And Mom called the firmament Heaven. 

And the evening and the morning were the second day.

And Mom said, Let the waters under the 

heaven be gathered together unto one 

place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

And Mom called the dry land Earth; and 

the gathering together of the waters 

she called Seas: and Mom saw that it was good.

And Mom said, Let the earth bring forth 

grass, the herb yielding seed, and the 

fruit tree yielding fruit after her kind, whose 

seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

And the earth brought forth grass, and herb 

yielding seed, and the tree yielding fruit: and Mom saw that it was good.

And the evening and the morning were the third day.

And Mom said, Let there be lights in the 

firmament of the heaven to divide the day 

from the night; and let them be for signs, 

and for seasons, and for days, and years:

And let them be for lights in the firmament 

of the heaven to give light upon Earth: and it was so.

And Mom made two great lights; the greater 

light to rule the day, and the lesser light to

rule the night: Mom also made the stars.

And Mom set them in the firmament of  

heaven to give light upon Earth,

And to rule over day and over night, 

and to divide the light from the darkness: 

and Mom saw that it was good.

And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

And Mom said, Let the waters bring forth 

abundantly the moving creature that hath 

life, and fowl that may fly above earth 

in the open firmament of heaven.

And Mom created great whales, and every 

living creature that moveth, which the 

waters brought forth abundantly, 

and every winged fowl: and Mom saw that it was good.

And Mom blessed them, saying;

Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters

in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

And Mom said, Let the earth bring forth the 

living creature after her kind, cattle, and 

creeping thing, and beast of the earth: and it was so.

And Mom made the beast of the earth, and cattle, 

and every thing that creepeth: and Mom saw that it was good.

And Mom said, Let us make man in our 

image, after our likeness: and let them 

have dominion over the fish of the sea, 

and over the fowl of the air, and over the 

cattle, and over the earth herself, 

and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon earth.

So Mom created man in her own image, 

in the image of Mom she created him; 

male and female created she them.

And Mom blessed them, and Mom said 

unto them; Be fruitful, and multiply, and 

replenish the Earth, and subdue it: and have 

dominion over the fish of the sea, and over

the fowl of the air, and over every living 

thing that moveth upon the earth.

And Mom said, Behold, I have given you 

every herb bearing seed, which is upon the 

face of all the earth, and every tree, and fruit 

bearing seed; to you it shall be for meat.

And to every beast of earth, and to m

every fowl of the air, and to every thing 

that creepeth upon earth, wherein 

there is life, I have given every green herb 

for meat: and it was so.

And Mom saw every thing that she had 

made, and, behold, it was very good. And 

the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

Thus the heavens and the Earth were 

finished, and all their multitude.

And on the seventh day Mom finished the work and she rested.

So Mom blessed the seventh day and 

hallowed it, because on it Mom rested from

all the work that she had done in creation.
