耶和華兮命甫頒而穹蒼受造、言一出而天象羅布兮、

彼不欲知、太初之世、上帝有命、天地以成、地由水出、因以堅凝、

經云、我命爾為萬民父焉、且上帝使死者生、變無為有亞伯拉罕篤信上帝、故在其前、得為吾眾之父、

萬物以道而造、凡受造者、無不以之而造、

曰、主造萬物、萬物受造、仍存不敝、皆遵主旨、宜其以尊榮權力、歸於主焉、

上帝以其子手肇造天地、立為萬物主、

夫造宇宙萬物之上帝、乃天地主、不居手造之殿、

爾當仰觀、天象羅布、有若軍旅、上帝以巨能大力、創造星辰、呼其名、核其數、無不應命。

太初之時、上帝創造天地。地乃虛曠、淵際晦冥、上帝之神、煦育乎水面。上帝曰、宜有光、即有光。上帝視光為善、遂判光暗。謂光為晝、謂暗為夜、有夕有朝、是乃首日。○上帝曰、宜有穹蒼、使上下之水相隔。遂作穹蒼、而上下之水、截然中斷、有如此也。上帝謂穹蒼為天、有夕有朝、是乃二日。○上帝曰、天下諸水宜滙一區、使陸地顯露。有如此也。謂陸地為壤、謂水滙為海、上帝視之為善。上帝曰、地宜生草、蔬結實、樹生果、果懷核、各從其類、有如此也。地遂生草、蔬結實、樹生果、果懷核、各從其類、上帝視之為善。有夕有朝、是乃三日。○上帝曰、穹蒼宜輝光眾著、以分晝夜、以定四時、以記年日、光麗於天、照臨於地、有如此也。上帝造二耿光、大以理晝、小以理夜、亦造星辰。置之穹蒼、照臨於地、以理晝夜、以分明晦、上帝視之為善。有夕有朝、是乃四日。○上帝曰、水必滋生生物、鱗蟲畢具、鳥飛於地、戾於穹蒼。遂造巨魚、暨水中所滋生之物、鱗蟲畢具、羽族各從其類、上帝視之為善。祝之曰、生育眾多、充牣於海、禽鳥繁衍於地。有夕有朝、是乃五日。○上帝曰、地宜生物、六畜、昆蟲、走獸、各從其類、有如此也。遂造獸與畜及蟲、各從其類、視之為善。○上帝曰、宜造人、其像象我儕、以治海魚、飛鳥、六畜、昆蟲、亦以治理乎地。遂造人、維肖乎己、象上帝像、造男亦造女、且祝之曰、生育眾多、昌熾於地、而治理之、以統轄海魚、飛鳥、及地昆蟲。○上帝曰、予汝所食者、地結實之菜蔬、懷核之樹果、亦以草萊予走獸、飛鳥、昆蟲、生物食之、有如此也。上帝視所造者盡善、有夕有朝、是乃六日。天地萬物既成、

蓋上帝之功用、人所可知者、顯於眾、是上帝示之也、自開闢以來、上帝之永能性體、目不及見、惟其所造之物、可睹而知、故人未由推諉、顧彼既知上帝、猶不以上帝尊之謝之、乃志意虛妄、心頑蒙昧、

當告民曰、非造天地之上帝、必亡於天地間、

雅各所崇之上帝不若是、彼造萬物、簡以色列族為民、萬有之主耶和華其名也。○

呼曰、爾曹何為如此、我儕亦人、與爾同情、特傳福音與爾、使去此虛妄、歸造天地海萬物之永生上帝也、
