Genesis 1:25

"God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds.  And God saw that it was good."  Genesis 1:25

Once again God said it and then did exactly what he said he was going to do.  After creating animals he sees that it's a good thing.

Genesis 1:24

"And God said, 'Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds:  livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind.'  And it was so."  Genesis 1:24

It is interesting that God has the land producing the living creatures.  In verse 20, it only states that God created the birds and fishes, but here in this verse he has the living creatures brought forth from the land.  The QBible translates "livestock" as "mute quadruped" and "creatures that move along the ground" as "a reptile or any other rapidly moving animal."  So now all the land creatures have been created.  So even as evolutionist believe that fish life came before land creatures on this the Bible agrees.

Genesis 1:23

"And there was evening and there was morning-the fifth day."  Genesis 1:23

Much like verses 5, 7, 13, and 19, there's not much to this verse.  It is simply stating the conclusion of Day 5.  This very much seems to be the literal translation.
