|This is the course of the history of the skies and the earth when they were created, in the day that the [[YHWH|L<small>ORD</small>]] [[God]], made the earth and the skies.
|This is the story of the skies and the earth when they were created, in the day that the [[YHWH|L<small>ORD</small>]] [[God]] made the earth and the skies.

|The word rendered L<small>ORD</small>, here and elsewhere, is '''יהוה''' (''Yahweh'', sometimes rendered ''Yehovah'' in the [[Masoretic Text]]) or [[YHWH]], the Tetragrammaton. The literal meaning is "He exists," sometimes rendered "He is" without a predicate nominative or adjective. Compare this with '''אהוה''' (''Ehweh''), which means ''I'' exist, in Exodus 3:14, the one occasion in which [[God]] gives His direct calling name to anyone.

|And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.
|
|No land plant was in the earth yet, nor had any herb sprouted. The L<small>ORD</small> God had not made it rain on the land, and no man was available to work the ground.
