地是空虚混沌，渊面黑暗；神的灵运行在水面上。

地是空虚混沌，深渊上面一片黑暗；上帝的灵运行在水面上。

地乃虛曠混沌、淵際晦冥、上帝之神煦育乎水面、

Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.

先知曰、我觀地、地空虛混亂、觀天、天昏黑無光、

主發靈氣、物皆受造、主使地面更換為新、

主創造諸天、獨為天主、造地、闢而定之、非徒造之、乃使人居於其上、主如是云、我乃主、我之外無他、

諸天藉主命受造、天上萬象、亦由主口之氣而成、

陳北極於空際、懸大地於太虛、

掬掌以量海水、布指以度蒼天、以大地之塵埃、盛於量器、以權權山、以衡衡陵、孰能為之哉、孰測主之心、孰為其議士以示之哉、與誰計議、孰曾誨之、孰教之以公平之道、孰訓之以知識、孰示之以明通之路、

此天主經綸之少許、我儕所聞者亦祗此少許、天主發雷霆顯大力、誰能測之、

尼尼微邑全然空虛、變為荒邱、居民膽怯、兩膝戰慄、彼此相擊、諸腰痛楚、諸面變色、
