GE-2:1  Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of

them.

GE-2:2  And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he

rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

GE-2:3  And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it

he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

GE-2:4  These [are] the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they

were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,

GE-2:5  And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every

herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain

upon the earth, and [there was] not a man to till the ground.

GE-2:6  But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of

the ground.

GE-2:7  And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground, and breathed

into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

GE-2:8  And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put

the man whom he had formed.

GE-2:9  And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is

pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst

of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

GE-2:10  And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it

was parted, and became into four heads.

GE-2:11  The name of the first [is] Pison: that [is] it which compasseth the

whole land of Havilah, where [there is] gold;

GE-2:12  And the gold of that land [is] good: there [is] bdellium and the onyx

stone.

GE-2:13  And the name of the second river [is] Gihon: the same [is] it that

compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia.

GE-2:14  And the name of the third river [is] Hiddekel: that [is] it which

goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river [is] Euphrates.

GE-2:15  And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to

dress it and to keep it.

GE-2:16  And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the

garden thou mayest freely eat:

GE-2:17  But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat

of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

GE-2:18  And the LORD God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone;

I will make him an help meet for him.

GE-2:19  And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field,

and every fowl of the air; and brought [them] unto Adam to see what he would

call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that [was] the

name thereof.

GE-2:20  And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to

every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for

him.

GE-2:21  And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept:

and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;

GE-2:22  And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman,

and brought her unto the man.

GE-2:23  And Adam said, This [is] now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh:

she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.

GE-2:24  Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall

cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

GE-2:25  And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
