Genesis 1:26

¶ And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

And God {H430} said {H559}, Let us make {H6213} man {H120} in our image {H6754}, after our likeness {H1823}: and let them have dominion {H7287} over the fish {H1710} of the sea {H3220}, and over the fowl {H5775} of the air {H8064}, and over the cattle {H929}, and over all the earth {H776}, and over every creeping thing {H7431} that creepeth {H7430} upon the earth {H776}.

Then God said, “Let us make humankind in our image, in the likeness of ourselves; and let them rule over the fish in the sea, the birds in the air, the animals, and over all the earth, and over every crawling creature that crawls on the earth.”

Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness, to rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, and over all the earth itself and every creature that crawls upon it.”

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
