* And the heavens and the earth and all their host were finished . * And God had finished on the seventh day his work which he had made ; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made . * And God blessed the seventh day , and hallowed it , because that on it he rested from all his work which God had created in making it . * These are the histories of the heavens and the earth , when they were created , in the day that Jehovah Elohim made earth and heavens , * and every shrub of the field before it was in the earth , and every herb of the field before it grew ; for Jehovah Elohim had not caused it to rain on the earth , and there was no man to till the ground . * But a mist went up from the earth , and moistened the whole surface of the ground . * And Jehovah Elohim formed Man , dust of the ground , and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life ; and Man became a living soul . * And Jehovah Elohim planted a garden in Eden eastward , and there put Man whom he had formed . * And out of the ground Jehovah Elohim made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight , and good for food ; and the tree of life , in the midst of the garden , and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil . * And a river went out of Eden , to water the garden ; and from thence it was parted , and became four main streams . * The name of the one is Pison : that is it which surrounds the whole land of Havilah , where the gold is . * And the gold of that land is good ; bdellium and the onyx stone are there . * And the name of the second river is Gihon : that is it which surrounds the whole land of Cush . * And the name of the third river is Hiddekel : that is it which flows forward toward Asshur . And the fourth river , that is Euphrates . * And Jehovah Elohim took Man , and put him into the garden of Eden , to till it and to guard it . * And Jehovah Elohim commanded Man , saying , Of every tree of the garden thou shalt freely eat ; * but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil , thou shalt not eat of it ; for in the day that thou eatest of it thou shalt certainly die . * And Jehovah Elohim said , It is not good that Man should be alone ; I will make him a helpmate , his like . * And out of the ground Jehovah Elohim had formed every animal of the field and all fowl of the heavens , and brought [them ] to Man , to see what he would call them ; and whatever Man called each living soul , that was its name . * And Man gave names to all cattle , and to the fowl of the heavens , and to every beast of the field ; but as for Adam , he found no helpmate , his like . * And Jehovah Elohim caused a deep sleep to fall upon Man ; and he slept . And he took one of his ribs and closed up flesh in its stead . * And Jehovah Elohim built the rib that he had taken from Man into a woman ; and brought her to Man . * And Man said , This time it is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh : this shall be called Woman , because this was taken out of a man . * Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother , and cleave to his wife ; and they shall become one flesh . * And they were both naked , Man and his wife , and were not ashamed .
