27 So[a] God created humankind in[b] his image, in[c] the likeness of God he created him,[d] male and female he created them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it, and rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of heaven,[e] and over every animal that moves upon the earth.”
29 And God said, “Look—I am giving to you every plant that bears seed which is on the face of the whole earth, and every kind of tree that bears fruit.[f] They shall be yours as food.”
