2 And on the seventh day, I, God, ended my work, and all things which I had made; and I rested on the seventh day from all my work; and all things which I had made were finished. And I, God, saw that they were good.

7 But I, the Lord God, spake, and there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.

9 Nevertheless, all things were before created, but spiritually were they created and made, according to my word.
