[1] The heavens, the earth, and all their vast array were finished. [2] On the seventh day God finished his work which he had done; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done. [3] God blessed the seventh day, and made it holy, because he rested in it from all his work of creation which he had done. [4] This is the history of the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that Yahweh§ God made the earth and the heavens. [5] No plant of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up; for Yahweh God had not caused it to rain on the earth. There was not a man to till the ground, [6] but a mist went up from the earth, and watered the whole surface of the ground. [7] Yahweh God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. [8] Yahweh God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed. [9] Out of the ground Yahweh God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, including the tree of life in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. [10] A river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it was parted, and became the source of four rivers. [11] The name of the first is Pishon: it flows through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; [12] and the gold of that land is good. Bdellium§ and onyx stone are also there. [13] The name of the second river is Gihon. It is the same river that flows through the whole land of Cush. [14] The name of the third river is Hiddekel. This is the one which flows in front of Assyria. The fourth river is the Euphrates. [15] Yahweh God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it. [16] Yahweh God commanded the man, saying, “You may freely eat of every tree of the garden; [17] but you shall not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely die.” [18] Yahweh God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a helper comparable to§ him.” [19] Out of the ground Yahweh God formed every animal of the field, and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the man called every living creature became its name. [20] The man gave names to all livestock, and to the birds of the sky, and to every animal of the field; but for man there was not found a helper comparable to him. [21] Yahweh God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep. As the man slept, he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. [22] Yahweh God made a woman from the rib which he had taken from the man, and brought her to the man. [23] The man said, “This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called ‘woman,’ because she was taken out of Man.” [24] Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh. [25] The man and his wife were both naked, and they were not ashamed.

[1] Thus the heavens H8064 and the earth H776 were finished, H3615 and all H3605 the host of them. H6635 [2] And on the seventh H7637 day H3117 God H430 ended H3615 his work H4399 which H834 he had made; H6213 and he rested H7673 on the seventh H7637 day H3117 from all H3605 his work H4399 which H834 he had made. H6213 [3] And God H430 blessed H1288 H853 the seventh H7637 day, H3117 and sanctified H6942 it: H853 because that H3588 in it he had rested H7673 from all H3605 his work H4399 which H834 God H430 created H1254 and made. H6213§ [4] These H428 are the generations H8435 of the heavens H8064 and of the earth H776 when they were created, H1254 in the day H3117 that the Lord H3068 God H430 made H6213 the earth H776 and the heavens, H8064 [5] and every H3605 plant H7880 of the field H7704 before H2962 it was H1961 in the earth, H776 and every H3605 herb H6212 of the field H7704 before H2962 it grew: H6779 for H3588 the Lord H3068 God H430 had H4305 not H3808 caused it to rain H4305 upon H5921 the earth, H776 and there was not H369 a man H120 to till H5647 H853 the ground. H127 [6] But there went up H5927 a mist H108 from H4480§ the earth, H776 and watered H8248 H853 the whole H3605 face H6440 of the ground. H127 [7] And the Lord H3068 God H430 formed H3335 H853 man H120 of the dust H6083 of H4480 the ground, H127§ and breathed H5301 into his nostrils H639 the breath H5397 of life; H2416 and man H120 became H1961 a living H2416 soul. H5315 [8] And the Lord H3068 God H430 planted H5193 a garden H1588 eastward H6924 in Eden; H5731 and there H8033 he put H7760 H853 the man H120 whom H834 he had formed. H3335 [9] And out H4480 of the ground H127 made H6779 the Lord H3068 God H430 to grow H6779 every H3605 tree H6086 that is pleasant H2530 to the sight, H4758 and good H2896 for food; H3978 the tree H6086 of life H2416 also in the midst H8432 of the garden, H1588 and the tree H6086 of knowledge H1847 of good H2896 and evil. H7451 [10] And a river H5104 went out H3318 of Eden H5731 to water H8248 H853 the garden; H1588 and from thence H8033 it was parted, H6504 and became H1961 into four H702 heads. H7218 [11] The name H8034 of the first H259 is Pison: H6376 that H1931 is it which compasseth H5437 H853 the whole H3605 land H776 of Havilah, H2341 where H834 H8033 there is gold; H2091 [12] and the gold H2091 of that H1931 land H776 is good: H2896 there H8033 is bdellium H916 and the onyx H7718 stone. H68 [13] And the name H8034 of the second H8145 river H5104 is Gihon: H1521 the same H1931 is it that compasseth H5437 H853 the whole H3605 land H776 of Ethiopia. H3568§ [14] And the name H8034 of the third H7992 river H5104 is Hiddekel: H2313 that H1931 is it which goeth toward H1980 the east H6926 of Assyria. H804§ And the fourth H7243 river H5104 H1931 is Euphrates. H6578 [15] And the Lord H3068 God H430 took H3947 H853 the man, H120§ and put him H3240 into the garden H1588 of Eden H5731 to dress it H5647 and to keep it. H8104 [16] And the Lord H3068 God H430 commanded H6680 H5921 the man, H120 saying, H559 Of every H3605 tree H6086 of the garden H1588 thou mayest freely H398 eat: H398§ [17] but of the tree H6086 of the knowledge H1847 of good H2896 and evil, H7451 thou shalt H398 not H3808 eat H398 of it: H4480 for H3588 in the day H3117 that thou eatest H398 thereof H4480 thou shalt H4191 surely H4191 die. H4191§ [18] And the Lord H3068 God H430 said, H559 It is not H3808 good H2896 that the man H120 should be H1961 alone; H905 I will make H6213 him an help H5828 meet for him. H5048§ [19] And out of H4480 the ground H127 the Lord H3068 God H430 formed H3335 every H3605 beast H2416 of the field, H7704 and H853 every H3605 fowl H5775 of the air; H8064 and brought H935 them unto H413 Adam H120§ to see H7200 what H4100 he would call H7121 them: and whatsoever H3605 H834 Adam H120 called H7121 every living H2416 creature, H5315 that H1931 was the name thereof. H8034 [20] And Adam H120 gave H7121§ names H8034 to all H3605 cattle, H929 and to the fowl H5775 of the air, H8064 and to every H3605 beast H2416 of the field; H7704 but for Adam H121 there was H4672 not H3808 found H4672 an help H5828 meet for him. H5048 [21] And the Lord H3068 God H430 caused H5307 a deep sleep H8639 to fall H5307 upon H5921 Adam, H120 and he slept: H3462 and he took H3947 one H259 of his ribs, H6763 and closed up H5462 the flesh H1320 instead thereof; H8478 [22] and H853 the rib, H6763 which H834 the Lord H3068 God H430 had taken H3947 from H4480 man, H120 made H1129§ he H1129 a woman, H802 and brought her H935 unto H413 the man. H120 [23] And Adam H120 said, H559 This H2063 is now H6471 bone H6106 of my bones, H6106 and flesh H1320 of my flesh: H1320 she H2063 shall be called H7121 Woman, H802 because H3588 she H2063 was taken H3947 out of Man. H376 [24] Therefore H5921 H3651 shall H5800 a man H376 leave H5800 H853 his father H1 and H853 his mother, H517 and shall cleave H1692 unto his wife: H802 and they shall be H1961 one H259 flesh. H1320 [25] And they were H1961 both H8147 naked, H6174 the man H120 and his wife, H802 and were H954 not H3808 ashamed. H954
