Strong's G1093 γῆ (ge)

In the beginning God made the heaven and the earth.

But the earth was unsightly and unfurnished, and darkness was over the deep, and the Spirit of God moved over the water.

And God called the dry land Earth, and the gatherings of the waters he called Seas, and God saw that it was good.

And God said, Let the earth bring forth the herb of grass bearing seed according to its kind and according to its likeness, and the fruit tree bearing fruit whose seed is in it, according to its kind on the earth, and it was so.

And the earth brought forth the herb of grass bearing seed according to its kind and according to its likeness, and the fruit tree bearing fruit whose seed is in it, according to its kind on the earth, and God saw that it was good.

And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, to divide between day and night, and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and for years.

And let them be for light in the firmament of the heaven, so as to shine upon the earth, and it was so.

And God placed them in the firmament of the heaven, so as to shine upon the earth,

And God said, Let the waters bring forth reptiles having life, and winged creatures flying above the earth in the firmament of heaven, and it was so.

And God blessed them, saying, Increase and multiply and fill the waters in the seas, and let the creatures that fly be multiplied on the earth.

And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind, quadrupeds and reptiles and wild beasts of the earth according to their kind, and it was so.

And God made the wild beasts of the earth according to their kind, and cattle according to their kind, and all the reptiles of the earth according to their kind, and God saw that they were good.

And God said, Let us make man according to our image and likeness, and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the flying creatures of heaven, and over the cattle and all the earth, and over all the reptiles that creep on the earth.

And God blessed them, saying, Increase and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the seas and flying creatures of heaven, and all the cattle and all the earth, and all the reptiles that creep on the earth.

And God said, Behold I have given to you every seed-bearing herb sowing seed which is upon all the earth, and every tree which has in itself the fruit of seed that is sown, to you it shall be for food.

And to all the wild beasts of the earth, and to all the flying creatures of heaven, and to every reptile creeping on the earth, which has in itself the breath of life, even every green plant for food; and it was so.

And the heavens and the earth were finished, and the whole world of them.

This is the book of the generation of heaven and earth, when they were made, in the day in which the Lord God made the heaven and the earth,

and every herb of the field before it was on the earth, and all the grass of the field before it sprang up, for God had not rained on the earth, and there was not a man to cultivate it.

But there rose a fountain out of the earth, and watered the whole face of the earth.

And God formed the man of dust of the earth, and breathed upon his face the breath of life, and the man became a living soul.

And God made to spring up also out of the earth every tree beautiful to the eye and good for food, and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of learning the knowledge of good and evil.

The name of the one, Pishon, this it is which encircles the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.

And the gold of that land is good, there also is carbuncle and emerald.

And the name of the second river is Gihon, this it is which encircles the whole land of Ethiopia.

And God formed yet farther out of the earth all the wild beasts of the field, and all the birds of the sky, and he brought them to Adam, to see what he would call them, and whatever Adam called any living creature, that was the name of it.

Now the serpent was the most crafty of all the brutes on the earth, which the Lord God made, and the serpent said to the woman, Wherefore has God said, Eat not of every tree of the garden?

And the Lord God said to the serpent, Because thou hast done this thou art cursed above all cattle and all the brutes of the earth, on thy breast and belly thou shalt go, and thou shalt eat earth all the days of thy life.

And to Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and eaten of the tree concerning which I charged thee of it only not to eat—of that thou hast eaten, cursed is the ground in thy labors, in pain shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life.

In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat thy bread until thou return to the earth out of which thou wast taken, for earth thou art and to earth thou shalt return.

So the Lord God sent him forth out of the garden of Delight to cultivate the ground out of which he was taken.

And she again bore his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.

And it was so after some time that Cain brought of the fruits of the earth a sacrifice to the Lord.

And the Lord said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood cries to me out of the ground.

And now thou art cursed from the earth which has opened her mouth to receive thy brother’s blood from thy hand.

When thou tillest the earth, then it shall not continue to give its strength to thee: thou shalt be groaning and trembling on the earth.

If thou castest me out this day from the face of the earth, and I shall be hidden from thy presence, and I shall be groaning and trembling upon the earth, then it will be that anyone that finds me shall slay me.

So Cain went forth from the presence of God and dwelt in the land of Nod over against Eden.

And he called his name Noah, saying, This one will cause us to cease from our works, and from the toils of our hands, and from the earth, which the Lord God has cursed.

And it came to pass when men began to be numerous upon the earth, and daughters were born to them,

Now the giants were upon the earth in those days; and after that when the sons of God were wont to go in to the daughters of men, they bore children to them, those were the giants of old, the men of renown.

And the Lord God having seen that the wicked actions of men were multiplied upon the earth, and that every one in his heart was intently brooding over evil continually,

then God laid it to heart that he had made man upon the earth, and he pondered it deeply.

And God said, I will blot out man whom I have made from the face of the earth, even man with cattle, and reptiles with flying creatures of the sky, for I am grieved that I have made them.

But the earth was corrupted before God, and the earth was filled with iniquity.

And the Lord God saw the earth, and it was corrupted; because all flesh had corrupted its way upon the earth.

And the Lord God said to Noah, A period of all men is come before me; because the earth has been filled with iniquity by them, and, behold, I destroy them and the earth.

And behold I bring a flood of water upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life under heaven, and whatsoever things are upon the earth shall die.

Of all winged birds after their kind, and of all cattle after their kind, and of all reptiles creeping upon the earth after their kind, pairs of all shall come in to thee, male and female to be fed with thee.

And of clean flying creatures of the sky sevens, male and female, and of all unclean flying creatures pairs, male and female, to maintain seed on all the earth.

For yet seven days having passed I bring rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights, and I will blot out every offspring which I have made from the face of all the earth.

And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of water was upon the earth.

And of clean flying creatures and of unclean flying creatures, and of clean cattle and of unclean cattle, and of all things that creep upon the earth,

And it came to pass after the seven days that the water of the flood came upon the earth.

And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

And all the wild beasts after their kind, and all cattle after their kind, and every reptile moving itself on the earth after its kind, and every flying bird after its kind,

And the flood was upon the earth forty days and forty nights, and the water abounded greatly and bore up the ark, and it was lifted on high from off the earth.

And the water prevailed and abounded exceedingly upon the earth, and the ark was borne upon the water.

And the water prevailed exceedingly upon the earth, and covered all the high mountains which were under heaven.

And there died all flesh that moved upon the earth, of flying creatures and cattle, and of wild beasts, and every reptile moving upon the earth, and every man.

And God blotted out every offspring which was upon the face of the earth, both man and beast, and reptiles, and birds of the sky, and they were blotted out from the earth, and Noah was left alone, and those with him in the ark.

And the water was raised over the earth a hundred and fifty days.

And God remembered Noah, and all the wild beasts, and all the cattle, and all the birds, and all the reptiles that creep, as many as were with him in the ark, and God brought a wind upon the earth, and the water stayed.

And the water subsided, and went off the earth, and after a hundred and fifty days the water was diminished, and the ark rested in the seventh month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat.

And he sent forth a raven; and it went forth and returned not until the water was dried from off the earth.

And he sent a dove after it to see if the water had ceased from off the earth.

And the dove not having found rest for her feet, returned to him into the ark, because the water was on all the face of the earth, and he stretched out his hand and took her, and brought her to himself into the ark.

And the dove returned to him in the evening, and had a leaf of olive, a sprig in her mouth; and Noah knew that the water had ceased from off the earth.

And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year of the life of Noah, in the first month, on the first day of the month, the water subsided from off the earth, and Noah opened the covering of the ark which he had made, and he saw that the water had subsided from the face of the earth.

And in the second month the earth was dried, on the twenty-seventh day of the month.

And all the wild beasts as many as are with thee, and all flesh both of birds and beasts, and every reptile moving upon the earth, bring forth with thee: and increase ye and multiply upon the earth.

And all the wild beasts and all the cattle and every bird, and every reptile creeping upon the earth after their kind, came forth out of the ark.

And the Lord God smelled a smell of sweetness, and the Lord God having considered, said, I will not anymore curse the earth, because of the works of men, because the imagination of man is intently bent upon evil things from his youth, I will not therefore anymore smite all living flesh as I have done.

All the days of the earth, seed and harvest, cold and heat, summer and spring, shall not cease by day or night.

And God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them, Increase and multiply, and fill the earth and have dominion over it.

And the dread and the fear of you shall be upon all the wild beasts of the earth, on all the birds of the sky, and on all things moving upon the earth, and upon all the fish of the sea, I have placed them under your power.

But do ye increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and have dominion over it.

and with every living creature with you, of birds and of beasts, and with all the wild beasts of the earth, as many as are with you, of all that come out of the ark.

And I will establish my covenant with you and all flesh shall not anymore die by the water of the flood, and there shall no more be a flood of water to destroy all the earth.

I set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a sign of covenant between me and the earth.

And it shall be when I gather clouds upon the earth, that my bow shall be seen in the cloud.

And my bow shall be in the cloud, and I will look to remember the everlasting covenant between me and the earth, and between every living soul in all flesh, which is upon the earth.

And God said to Noah, This is the sign of the covenant, which I have made between me and all flesh, which is upon the earth.

These three are the sons of Noah, of these were men scattered over all the earth.

And Noah began to be a husbandman, and he planted a vineyard.

From these were the islands of the Gentiles divided in their land, each according to his tongue, in their tribes and in their nations.

And Cush begot Nimrod: he began to be a giant upon the earth.

And the beginning of his kingdom was Babylon, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

Out of that land came Asshur, and built Nineveh, and the city Rehoboth, and Calah,

And to Eber were born two sons, the name of the one, Peleg, because in his days the earth was divided, and the name of his brother Joktan.

These are the tribes of the sons of Noah, according to their generations, according to their nations: of them were the islands of the Gentiles scattered over the earth after the flood.

And all the earth was one lip, and there was one language to all.

And it came to pass as they moved from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there.

And they said, Come, let us build to ourselves a city and tower, whose top shall be to heaven, and let us make to ourselves a name, before we are scattered abroad upon the face of all the earth.

And the Lord scattered them thence over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city and the tower.

On this account its name was called Confusion, because there the Lord confounded the languages of all the earth, and thence the Lord scattered them upon the face of all the earth.

And Haran died in the presence of Terah his father, in the land in which he was born, in the country of the Chaldees.

And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot the son of Haran, the son of his son, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, the wife of Abram his son, and led them forth out of the land of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan, and they came as far as Haran, and he dwelt there.

And the Lord said to Abram, Go forth out of thy land and out of thy kindred, and out of the house of thy father, and come into the land which I shall show thee.

And I will bless those that bless thee, and curse those that curse thee, and in thee shall all the tribes of the earth be blessed.

And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot the son of his brother, and all their possessions, as many as they had gotten, and every soul which they had gotten in Haran, and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan.

And Abram traversed the land lengthwise as far as the place Shechem, to the high oak, and the Canaanites then inhabited the land.

And the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him, I will give this land to thy seed. And Abram built an altar there to the Lord, who appeared to him.

And there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down to Egypt to sojourn there, because the famine prevailed in the land.

And the land was not large enough for them to live together, because their possessions were great; and the land was not large enough for them to live together.

And there was a strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s cattle, and the herdsmen of Lot’s cattle, and the Canaanites and the Perizzites then inhabited the land.

Lo! is not the whole land before thee? Separate thyself from me; if thou goest to the left, I will go to the right, and if thou goest to the right, I will go to the left.

And Lot having lifted up his eyes, observed all the country round about Jordan, that it was all watered, before God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, as the garden of the Lord, and as the land of Egypt, until thou come to Zoar.

And Lot dwelt in a city of the neighboring people, and pitched his tent in Sodom.

for all the land which thou seest, I will give it to thee and to thy seed forever.

And I will make thy seed like the dust of the earth; if anyone is able to number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed be numbered.

Arise and traverse the land, both in the length of it and in the breadth; for to thee will I give it, and to thy seed forever.

And he blessed Abram, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, who made heaven and earth,

And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I will stretch out my hand to the Lord the most high God, who made the heaven and the earth,

And he said to him, I am God that brought thee out of the land of the Chaldeans, so as to give thee this land to inherit.

And it was said to Abram, Thou shalt surely know that thy seed shall be a sojourner in a land not their own, and they shall enslave them, and afflict them, and humble them four hundred years.

In that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, To thy seed I will give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river Euphrates.

So Sarai the wife of Abram having taken Hagar the Egyptian her handmaid, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, gave her to Abram her husband as a wife to him.

And I will give to thee and to thy seed after thee the land wherein thou sojournest, even all the land of Canaan for an everlasting possession, and I will be to them a God.

And he lifted up his eyes and beheld, and lo! three men stood before him; and having seen them he ran to meet them from the door of his tent, and did obeisance to the ground.
