In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. And the earth was waste and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep: and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have eternal life. |
