¹ And the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.² And on the seventh day God finished 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 hallowed it; because in it he rested from all his work which God had created and made.

⁴ These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that Yahweh God made earth and heaven.⁵ And 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: and the man was not [there] to till the ground;⁶ but there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.⁷ And Yahweh God formed the man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living soul.

⁸ And Yahweh God planted a garden eastward, in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.⁹ And out of the ground made Yahweh 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 the knowledge of good and evil.¹⁰ And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it was parted, and became four heads.¹¹ The name of the first is Pishon: that is it which compasses 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 compasses the whole land of Cush.¹⁴ And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it, which goes in front of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.¹⁵ And Yahweh God took the man, and put him into the Garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.

¹⁶ And Yahweh God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat:¹⁷ but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall not eat of it: for in the day that you eat thereof you shall surely die.

¹⁸ And Yahweh God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make a matching helper for him.¹⁹ And out of the ground Yahweh God formed every beast of the field, and every bird of the heavens; and brought them to the man to see what he would call them: and whatever the man called every living creature, that was the name thereof.²⁰ And the man gave names to all cattle, and to the birds of the heavens, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there wasn't found a matching helper for him.

²¹ And Yahweh God caused a deep sleep to fall on the man, and he slept; and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof:²² and the rib, which Yahweh God had taken from the man, he made a woman, and brought her to the man.²³ And the man said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called a woman, because she was taken out of a man.²⁴ Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they shall be one flesh.²⁵ And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
