諸天藉主命受造、天上萬象、亦由主口之氣而成、

彼不欲知太初以主命而有天、亦有地出於水、賴水而立、賴水而立或作立於水中

萬物以道而造、凡受造者、無一非以之而造、

以榮光尊貴權力歸於主、宜也、蓋主創造萬物、萬物受造而有、皆由主之旨也、

在此末世、藉其子諭我儕、天主立子以嗣萬物、且藉子創造諸世界、

夫造宇宙及其中萬物之天主、乃天地之主宰、不居手造之殿、

爾向高舉目而觀、思此諸物為誰所造、天之萬象、主核其數而攜之出、天之萬象主核其數而攜之出或作惟主使天之萬象按數而顯皆道其名、蓋以主之大能大力、無不應命也、○

太初天主創造天地、地乃空曠混沌、淵面晦冥、天主之神、運行於水面、天主曰、當有光、即有光、天主視光為善、天主遂分光暗、天主名光為晝、名暗為夜、有夕有朝、是乃一日、○天主曰、水中當有空氣、以分上下之水、天主遂作空氣、使空氣以上之水、與空氣以下之水、截然中分、有如此也、天主名空氣為天、有夕有朝、是乃二日、○天主曰、天下諸水、當滙一區、使現陸地、有如此也、天主名陸地為地、名水滙之區為海、天主視之為善、天主曰、地當生結子之草與蔬、及生果之樹、果懷核、各從其類於地、有如此也、地遂生結子之草與蔬、各從其類、及生果之樹、果懷核、各從其類、天主視之為善、有夕有朝、是乃三日、○天主曰、天上當有發光之體、俾分晝夜、以為記號、可定四時日期年歲、且發光於天、普照於地、有如此也、天主造二巨光、大者司晝、小者司夜、又造眾星、天主置之於天、普照於地、以司晝夜、以分光暗、天主視之為善、有夕有朝、是乃四日、○天主曰、水當滋生有生之動物、又有鳥飛於地、上戾空中、天主乃造巨魚、與水所滋生有生之動物、各從其類、及諸飛鳥、各從其類、天主視之為善、天主許之以福曰、生育眾多、充滿於海、禽鳥亦蕃衍於地、有夕有朝、是乃五日、○天主曰、地當滋生生物、各從其類、六畜昆蟲野獸、各從其類、有如此也、天主遂造野獸、各從其類、牲畜各從其類、地上昆蟲各從其類、天主視之為善、○天主曰、我儕當造人、肖我儕之像、以治海魚飛鳥牲畜、及凡動於地之昆蟲、亦治全地、天主遂按己像造人、造之乃肖天主像、造男亦造女、天主許之以福、謂之曰、生育眾多、充盈於地、地為爾所治、並治海魚飛鳥、及地上諸生物、天主曰、遍地結子之菜蔬、與懷核之樹果、我俱賜爾以為食、至於地上走獸、空中飛鳥、及動於地之諸生物、我賜以青草為食、有如此也、天主視所造者甚善、有夕有朝、是乃六日、天地萬物既成、

蓋天主之事、人所能知者、明顯於人、因天主已示之於彼、天主不可見之事、即其永能、及其為天主之真、目不可見、自造天地以來、乃可明知、因觀其所造之物而悟、致人無由推諉、彼雖知天主、不以天主尊之、亦不謝之、乃思念虛妄、心以頑而愈昧、

爾當如斯告彼曰、非造天地之神、必亡於地、於此天下、

惟雅各循分所崇之天主不若是、乃造萬物、選以色列為其子民、萬有之主其名也、○

呼曰、爾曹何為行此、我儕亦人、與爾同情、特傳福音於爾、使爾棄此虛妄、而歸造天地海及其中萬物之永生天主、
