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. |
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. |
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, |
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. |
6
|
But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered
the whole face of the ground. |
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. |
8
|
And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and
there he put the man whom he had formed. |
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.
The Tree of LIfe |
10
|
And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and
from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. |
11
|
The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth
the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; |
12
|
And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium
and the onyx stone. |
13
|
And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is
it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia. |
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. |
15
|
And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden
of Eden to dress it and to keep it. |
16
|
And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every
tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: |
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. |
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. |
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. |
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. |
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; |
22
|
And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made
he a woman, and brought her unto the man. |
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. |
24
|
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother,
and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. |
25
|
And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were
not ashamed. |
