Genesis 1
The Creation
1 (1) In the beginning (2) God (3) created the heavens and the earth.
2 The earth was [1] (4) formless and void, and (5) darkness was over the surface of the deep, and (6) the Spirit of God (7) was [2] moving over the surface of the waters.
3 Then (8) God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.
4 God saw that the light was (9) good; and God (10) separated the light from the darkness.
5 (11) God called the light day, and the darkness He called night. And (12) there was evening and there was morning, one day.
6 Then God said, “Let there be an (13) expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.”
7 God made the [3] expanse, and separated (14) the waters which were below the expanse from the waters (15) which were above the expanse; and it was so.
8 God called the expanse heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.
9 Then God said, “(16) Let the waters below the heavens be gathered into one place, and let (17) the dry land appear”; and it was so.
10 God called the dry land earth, and the (18) gathering of the waters He called seas; and God saw that it was good.

Fair cop. But do you agree with these Prods from 1611, or what?
Paul: I must be more dense than usual this morning because I can’t for the life of me figure out what you’re talking about.
I suspect the other versions may have got rid of the inelegant and, it doesn’t ring a bell with my Marist upbringing.
