6 Dieu dit: Qu’il y ait une étendue entre les eaux, et qu’elle sépare les eaux d’avec les eaux.
7 Et Dieu fit l’étendue, et il sépara les eaux qui sont au-dessous de l’étendue d’avec les eaux qui sont au-dessus de l’étendue. Et cela fut ainsi.
8 Dieu appela l’étendue ciel. Ainsi, il y eut un soir, et il y eut un matin: ce fut le second jour.
9 Dieu dit: Que les eaux qui sont au-dessous du ciel se rassemblent en un seul lieu, et que le sec paraisse. Et cela fut ainsi.
