Genesis 1:11

The Third Day

10God called the dry land “earth,” and the gathering of waters He called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.11Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth vegetation: seed-bearing plants and fruit trees, each bearing fruit with seed according to its kind.” And it was so.12The earth produced vegetation: seed-bearing plants according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
