Then God said, “Let the waters swarm with fish and other life. Let the skies be
filled with birds of every kind.” 21 So God created great sea creatures and every
living thing that scurries and swarms in the water, and every sort of bird—each
producing offspring of the same kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 Then

“Be fruitful and multiply.
Let the fish fill the seas,

birds multiply on the earth.”

And evening passed and morning came, marking the fifth day.
Then God said, “Let the earth produce every sort of animal, each producing
offspring of the same kind—livestock, small animals that scurry along the

animals that scurry along the ground.”
29 Then God said, “Look! I have given you every seed-bearing plant throughout
the earth and all the fruit trees for your food. 30 And I have given every green
plant as food for all the wild animals, the birds in the sky, and the small animals
that scurry along the ground—everything that has life.” And that is what
happened.
