|
| Genesis 2:2 | 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.

|
| Genesis 2:5 | No shrub of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up; for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground;
|
| Genesis 2:6 | but there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
|
| Genesis 2:7 | Then 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.
|
| Genesis 2:8 | And the LORD God planted a garden eastward, in Eden; and there He put the man whom He had formed.
|
| Genesis 2:9 | 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 the knowledge of good and evil.
|

|
| Genesis 2:11 | The name of the first is Pishon; that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
|
| Genesis 2:12 | and the gold of that land is good; there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
|
| Genesis 2:13 | And the name of the second river is Gihon; the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Cush.
|
| Genesis 2:14 | And the name of the third river is Tigris; that is it which goeth toward the east of Asshur. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.
|
| Genesis 2:15 | And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
|
| Genesis 2:16 | And the LORD God commanded the man, saying: 'Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat;
|
| Genesis 2:17 | 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.'
|
| Genesis 2:18 | And the LORD God said: 'It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a help meet for him.'
|
| Genesis 2:19 | And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto the man to see what he would call them; and whatsoever the man would call every living creature, that was to be the name thereof.
|
| Genesis 2:20 | And the man 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 a help meet for him.
|
| Genesis 2:21 | And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the place with flesh instead thereof.
|
| Genesis 2:22 | And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from the man, made He a woman, and brought her unto the man.
|
| Genesis 2:23 | And the man 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.'
|
| Genesis 2:24 | Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife, and they shall be one flesh.
|
| Genesis 2:25 | And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
