1 Thus the heavens and the earth werecompleted in all their vast array.2 By the seventh day God had finishedthe work he had been doing; so on theseventh day he rested from all his work.3 And God blessed the seventh day andmade it holy, because on it he restedfrom all the work of creating that he haddone.4 This is the account of the heavens andthe earth when they were created. When the Lord God made the earth andthe heavens5 and no shrub of the field had yetappeared on the earth and no plant ofthe field had yet sprung up, for the LordGod had not sent rain on the earth andthere was no man to work the ground,6 but streams came up from the earthand watered the whole surface of theground7 the Lord God formed the man from thedust of the ground and breathed into hisnostrils the breath of life, and the manbecame a living being.8 Now the Lord God had planted agarden in the east, in Eden; and therehe put the man he had formed.9 And the Lord God made all kinds oftrees grow out of the ground-trees thatwere pleasing to the eye and good forfood. In the middle of the garden werethe tree of life and the tree of theknowledge of good and evil.10 A river watering the garden flowedfrom Eden; from there it was separatedinto four headwaters.11 The name of the first is the Pishon; itwinds through the entire land of Havilah,where there is gold.12 (The gold of that land is good;aromatic resin and onyx are also there.)13 The name of the second river is theGihon; it winds through the entire land ofCush.14 The name of the third river is theTigris; it runs along the east side ofAsshur. And the fourth river is theEuphrates.15 The Lord God took the man and puthim in the Garden of Eden to work it andtake care of it.16 And the Lord God commanded theman, "You are free to eat from any treein the garden;17 but you must not eat from the tree ofthe knowledge of good and evil, forwhen you eat of it you will surely die."18 The Lord God said, "It is not good forthe man to be alone. I will make a helpersuitable for him."19 Now the Lord God had formed out ofthe ground all the beasts of the field andall the birds of the air. He brought themto the man to see what he would namethem; and whatever the man calledeach living creature, that was its name.20 So the man gave names to all thelivestock, the birds of the air and all thebeasts of the field. But for Adam nosuitable helper was found.21 So the Lord God caused the man tofall into a deep sleep; and while he wassleeping, he took one of the man's ribsand closed up the place with flesh.22 Then the Lord God made a womanfrom the rib he had taken out of the man,and he brought her to the man. 23 The man said, "This is now bone of mybones and flesh of my flesh; she shallbe called 'woman, ' for she was takenout of man."24 For this reason a man will leave hisfather and mother and be united to hiswife, and they will become one flesh.25 The man and his wife were both naked,and they felt no shame.
