² And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

²³ I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.

³⁰ Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created: and thou renewest the face of the earth.

¹⁸ For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.
