28 And God [a]blessed them, and God said to them, (A)Bring forth fruit, and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heaven, and over every beast that moveth upon the earth.

29 And God said, Behold, I have given unto you [b]every herb bearing seed, which is upon all the earth, and every tree, wherein is the fruit of a tree bearing seed: (B)that shall be to you for meat.

30 Likewise to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the heaven, and to everything that moveth upon the earth, which hath life in itself, every green herb shall be for meat, and it was so.
