Grass, herb and fruit tree

The earth brings forth grass, the herb yielding seed and the tree yielding fruit, each after his kind: the third day, before the lights of the fourth.

KJV (Genesis 1:11–13): “And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And the evening and the morning were the third day.”
