起初，神創造天地

和合本（Chinese Union Version）· ESV（English Standard Version）

起初，神創造天地。

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

地是空虛混沌，淵面黑暗；神的靈運行在水面上。

The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

神說：要有光，就有了光。

And God said, Let there be light, and there was light.

神看光是好的，就把光暗分開了。

And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness.

神稱光為晝，稱暗為夜。有晚上，有早晨，這是頭一日。

God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.

神說：諸水之間要有空氣，將水分為上下。

And God said, Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters.

神就造出空氣，將空氣以下的水、空氣以上的水分開了。事就這樣成了。

And God made the expanse and separated the waters that were under the expanse from the waters that were above the expanse. And it was so.

神稱空氣為天。有晚上，有早晨，是第二日。

And God called the expanse Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, the second day.

God called the dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered together he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.

神說：地要發生青草和結種子的菜蔬，並結果子的樹木，各從其類，果子都包著核。事就這樣成了。

And God said, Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind, on the earth. And it was so.

於是地發生了青草和結種子的菜蔬，各從其類；並結果子的樹木，各從其類，果子都包著核。神看著是好的。

The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed according to their own kinds, and trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

有晚上，有早晨，是第三日。

And there was evening and there was morning, the third day.

神說：天上要有光體，可以分晝夜，作記號，定節令、日子、年歲；

And God said, Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years,

並要發光在天空，普照在地上。事就這樣成了。

and let them be lights in the expanse of the heavens to give light upon the earth. And it was so.

to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.

有晚上，有早晨，是第四日。

神說：水要多多滋生有生命的物；要有雀鳥飛在地面以上，天空之中。

And God said, Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the expanse of the heavens.

神就造出大魚和水中所滋生各樣有生命的動物，各從其類；又造出各樣飛鳥，各從其類。神看著是好的。

So God created the great sea creatures and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarm, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

神就賜福給這一切，說：滋生繁多，充滿海中的水；雀鳥也要多生在地上。

And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.

有晚上，有早晨，是第五日。

And there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day.

神說：地要生出活物來，各從其類；牲畜、昆蟲、地上的野獸，各從其類。事就這樣成了。

神就照著自己的形像造人，乃是照著他的形像造男造女。

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

神就賜福給他們，又對他們說：要生養眾多，遍滿地面，治理這地，也要管理海裡的魚、空中的鳥，和地上各樣行動的活物。

And God blessed them. And God said to them, Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.

神說：看哪，我將遍地上一切結種子的菜蔬和一切樹上所結有核的果子全賜給你們作食物。

And God said, Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its fruit. You shall have them for food.

至於地上的走獸和空中的飛鳥，並各樣爬在地上有生命的物，我將青草賜給牠們作食物。事就這樣成了。

📖 創世記第 1 章背後的知識

創世記（Genesis）是聖經的第一卷書，希伯來文原名「בְּרֵאשִׁית」（Bereshit），意思是「起初」。這一卷書記載了宇宙的起源、人類的起源、罪的進入、以及以色列民族的先祖。第 1 章是整本聖經的開頭，也是全世界最著名的經文之一：起初，神創造天地。

創世記第 1 章用「六日創造」的結構，依序記載神創造光、天、地、海、植物、日月星辰、魚鳥、陸獸、最後造人。每一天都以「有晚上，有早晨」作結，第六日造人後，神看著一切所造的都「甚好」。這一章不只講「神創造」，也講「神看為好」——創造是好的，物質世界是好的，人的身體是好的。

⚠️ 常見誤解

❌「創世記第 1 章是科學教科書」 → 不是。它是「神學宣告」，宣告神是創造主，不是講「地球幾歲」「恐龍怎麼滅絕」的科學細節。

❌「六日就是六個 24 小時」 → 不一定。希伯來文「יוֹם」（yom）可指「一日」也可指「一段時期」。重點是「神有秩序地創造」，不是「幾天」。

❌「人跟動物沒兩樣」 → 有本質差異。只有人是「照著神的形像」造的（1:27），被賦予管理萬物的責任（1:28）。

❌「和合本和 ESV 意思不同」 → 意思相同，只是翻譯語言不同。和合本是中文，ESV 是英文標準版，都忠於原文。

❌「創世記只是猶太人的書」 → 這是普世性的書，全世界 20 億基督徒都在讀，也是理解新約（約翰福音 1:1「太初有道」）的關鍵。

🩺 使用時機與注意事項

✅ 適合：個人靈修、小組讀經、想學英文聖經的人、想認識聖經開頭的人、想理解「創造」神學的人。
⚠️ 注意：這個工具是「經文對照」，不是「解經書」。創造與科學的關係請諮詢牧者或讀正統解經書。ESV 版權屬 Crossway，僅供個人閱讀使用。

❓ 更多常見問題

創世記第 1 章有幾節？

31 節。分為六日創造：1-5 日一、6-8 日二、9-13 日三、14-19 日四、20-23 日五、24-31 日六。

「神的靈運行在水面上」是什麼意思？

「運行」（רָחַף）有「盤旋、孵育」的意思，像母鳥孵蛋。表示神的靈在混沌中預備創造。

「照著我們的形像」的「我們」是指誰？

神學上有三種解釋：一是「三位一體」（聖父、聖子、聖靈），二是「神與天使商議」，三是「尊榮的複數」。正統基督教多採「三位一體」。

第六日造人，跟前面五日有什麼不同？

前面五日是「神說，事就這樣成了」；第六日造人時，神說「我們要造人」，並且「照著自己的形像造」。人是創造的高峰。

這一章與約翰福音有關嗎？

有。約翰福音 1:1「太初有道，道與神同在，道就是神」，直接呼應創世記 1:1「起初，神創造天地」。
