KJVu: 20 And God said, "Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature s that have life, and birds that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven."

Note: Considered "flying creature(s)" (Strongs 5775) and "bird(s)." Chose "bird(s)" since "flying creatures" would include insects. In modern English the word "fowl" is associated with chickens. The KJV Dictionary (Smith’s Bible Dictionary portion) offers this information on fowl, "Several distinct Hebrew and Greek words are thus rendered in the English Bible [as fowl]. Of these the most common is 'oph , which is usually a collective term for all kinds of birds."

This was not always so. In the "Webster’s 1828 Dictionary" portion of the above link, the dictionary’s editor laments the fact that "birds" was usurping the definition of "fowl." "Bird is a young fowl or chicken, and may well be applied to the smaller species of fowls. But it has usurped the place of fowl and is used improperly as the generic term."

KJV:   21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind : and God saw that it was good.

KJVu: 21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged bird after his kind ; and God saw that it was good.

Note: See note on use of "birds" in Gen. 1:20

KJV:   22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

KJVu: 22 And God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the birds multiply in the earth. "

Note: See note on use of "birds" in Gen. 1:20

KJV:   24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.

KJVu: 24 And God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creature s after their kind, cattle, and creeping thing s, and beast s of the earth after their kind "; and it was so.

KJV:   25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind : and God saw that it was good.

KJVu: 25 And God made the beast s of the earth after their kind, and cattle after their kind, and everything that creeps upon the earth after their kind ; and God saw that it was good.

KJV:   26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

KJVu: 26 And God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth. "

Note: See note on use of "birds" in Gen. 1:20

KJV:   27 So God created man in his own image , in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

KJVu: 27 So God created mankind in his own image ; in the image of God he created them. He created them male and female.

Note: Opted to use "mankind" in place of "man" because in the same verse it stated that God created them both "male and female," so obviously "man" was referencing species and not gender.

KJV:   28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

KJVu: 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth."

Note: See note on use of "birds" in Gen. 1:20

KJV:   29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed , which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree , in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

KJVu: 29 And God said, "Behold, I have given YOU every herb bearing seed upon the face of all the earth, and every tree in which the fruit has seeds. They shall be food for YOU.

Note: Opted to use "food" in place of "meat." In addition to Strongs H402 see also:

Smith’s Bible Dictionary

Meat
It does not appear that the word "meat" is used in any one instance in the Authorized Version of either the Old or New Testament in the sense which it now almost exclusively bears of animal food. The latter is denoted uniformly by "flesh." The word "meat," when our English version was made, meant food in general; or if any particular kind was designated, it referred to meal, flour or grain. The only real and inconvenient ambiguity caused by the change which has taken place in the meaning of the word is in the case of the "meat offering."

KJV Dictionary Definition: meat

MEAT, n.
1. Food in general; anything eaten for nourishment, either by man or beast.

KJV:   30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.

KJVu: 30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for food;" and it was so.
