Yo, in the OG days, Big G whipped up the sky and the ground. Earth was all over the place, totally empty, with darkness chillin' on the deep sea vibes. But God's spirit was hovering over the water like a drone.
Then God was like, "Lights on," and bam, there was light. God peeped the light, gave it a thumbs up, and split it from the dark mode. Big G called the light "Day" and the dark "Night." And just like that, day one wrapped up with an evening and a morning.
God's next move: "Let's have a sky in the middle of the water to break it up." So, God did just that, made a sky, and separated the water below from the water above. And it all clicked into place. God dubbed the sky "Heaven." Wrap up day two with an evening and a morning.
Then God was like, "Water, scoot over. Land, show yourself," and it all fell into place. God named the land "Earth" and the gathered waters "Seas". Big G was feeling it, all good.
Next up, God ordered, "Earth, sprout some greens, herbs, and fruit trees making fruit with seeds in it." And yep, it happened. Earth went full garden mode, with greens, herbs, and fruit trees doing their thing, each with seeds. God checked it out and was all, "Nice." Then came the close of day three, evening and morning.
God was like, "Let's have some lights up in the sky to separate day and night, mark seasons, days, and years." "They'll light up the earth too." And so it was. God made two big lights—the sun to take the day shift and the moon for night. Threw in stars too. God placed them in the sky to light up earth, dominate day and night, and split light from dark. God saw it and was like, "Lit." And that's a wrap on day four, from evening to morning.
God then said, "Waters, get busy with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth." So, God created sea monsters and all sorts of swimming and flying creatures. God saw it and was like, "Score." God blessed them: "Be productive, multiply, fill the seas, and birds, take over the sky." Evening came, then morning, and day five was in the books.
God went on, "Earth, bring forth living creatures of all kinds: livestock, creepy crawlies, and wild animals." And that's exactly what happened. God made all sorts of earth-dwellers, livestock, and all the creepy things. God looked over it and thought, "This is the real deal."
God had a board meeting and decided, "Let's make humans in our image to run the show over the fish, birds, livestock, and all the wild things, plus those crawlers on the earth."
So, God made humans in his image, male and female, he created them.
God gave them a pep talk: "Go forth, multiply, fill the earth and boss it. Rule over the sea creatures, birds, and every living thing."
God was like, "Check it, I've hooked you up with every seed-bearing plant and fruit tree for food. And for all the wild creatures, birds, and crawlers, I've got green plants for food." And it was all set.
God took a step back, saw everything he made, and it was top-notch. And so, day six closed out with an evening and a morning.
