1The heavens <08064> and the earth <0776> were completed <03615> with everything <03605> that was in them <06635>.
2By the seventh <07637> day <03117> God <0430> finished <03615> the work <04399> that <0834> he had been doing <06213>, and he ceased <07673> on the seventh <07637> day <03117> all <03605> the work <04399> that <0834> he had been doing <06213>.
3God <0430> blessed <01288> the seventh <07637> day <03117> and made <06942> it holy <06942> because <03588> on it he ceased <07673> all <03605> the work <04399> that <0834> he had been doing <01254> in creation <06213>.
4This <0428> is the account <08435> of the heavens <08064> and the earth <0776> when they were created <01254>– when <03117> the Lord <03068> God <0430> made <06213> the earth <0776> and heavens <08064>.
5Now no <02962> <03605> shrub <07880> of the field <07704> had yet <02962> grown <01961> on the earth <0776>, and no <02962> <03605> plant <06212> of the field <07704> had yet <02962> sprouted <06779>, for <03588> the Lord <03068> God <0430> had not <03808> caused it to rain <04305> on <05921> the earth <0776>, and there was no <0369> man <0120> to cultivate <05647> the ground <0127>.
6Springs <0108> would well up <05927> from <04480> the earth <0776> and water <08248> the whole <03605> surface <06440> of the ground <0127>.
7The Lord <03068> God <0430> formed <03335> the man <0120> from <04480> the soil <06083> of the ground <0127> and breathed <05301> into his nostrils <0639> the breath <05397> of life <02416>, and the man <0120> became <01961> a living <02416> being <05315>.
8The Lord <03068> God <0430> planted <05193> an orchard <01588> in the east <06924>, in Eden <05731>; and there <08033> he placed <07760> the man <0120> he had formed <03335>.
9The Lord <03068> God <0430> made all kinds of trees grow <06779> from <04480> the soil <0127>, every <03605> tree <06086> that was pleasing <02530> to look at <04758> and good <02896> for food <03978>. (Now the tree <06086> of life <02416> and the tree <06086> of the knowledge <01847> of good <02896> and evil <07451> were in the middle <08432> of the orchard <01588>.)
10Now a river <05104> flows <03318> from Eden <05731> to water <08248> the orchard <01588>, and from there <08033> it divides <06504> into four <0702> headstreams <07218>.
11The name <08034> of the first <0259> is Pishon <06376>; it <01931> runs through <05437> the entire <03605> land <0776> of Havilah <02341>, where <0834> there <08033> is gold <02091>.
12(The gold <02091> of that <01931> land <0776> is pure <02896>; pearls <0916> and lapis <068> lazuli <07718> are also there <08033>).
13The name <08034> of the second <08145> river <05104> is Gihon <01521>; it <01931> runs through <05437> the entire <03605> land <0776> of Cush <03568>.
14The name <08034> of the third <07992> river <05104> is Tigris <02313>; it <01931> runs along <01980> the east <06926> side of Assyria <0804>. The fourth <07243> river <05104> is the Euphrates <06578>.
15The Lord <03068> God <0430> took <03947> the man <0120> and placed <03240> him in the orchard <01588> in Eden <05731> to care <05647> for it and to maintain <08104> it.
16Then the Lord <03068> God <0430> commanded <06680> the man <0120>, “You may freely <0398> eat <0398> fruit from every <03605> tree <06086> of the orchard <01588>,
17but you must not <03808> eat <0398> from <04480> the tree <06086> of the knowledge <01847> of good <02896> and evil <07451>, for <03588> when <03117> you eat <0398> from <04480> it you will surely die <04191> <04191>.”
18The Lord <03068> God <0430> said <0559>, “It is not <03808> good <02896> for the man <0120> to be alone <0905>. I will make <06213> a companion for him <05828> who corresponds to him <05048>.”
19The Lord <03068> God <0430> formed <03335> out of <04480> the ground <0127> every <03605> living <02416> animal of the field <07704> and every <03605> bird <05775> of the air <08064>. He brought <0935> them to <0413> the man <0120> to see <07200> what <04100> he would name <07121> them, and whatever <0834> the man <0120> called <07121> each living <02416> creature <05315>, that was its <01931> name <08034>.
20So <07121> the man <0120> named <08034> all <03605> the animals <0929>, the birds <05775> of the air <08064>, and the living creatures <02416> of the field <07704>, but for Adam <0120> no <03808> companion who <05828> corresponded to him <05048> was found <04672>.
21So the Lord <03068> God <0430> caused the man <0120> to fall <05307> into a deep sleep <08639>, and while he was asleep <03462>, he took <03947> part of the man’s <0259> side <06763> and closed up <05462> the place <08478> with flesh <01320>.
22Then the Lord <03068> God <0430> made <01129> a woman <0802> from the part <06763> he had taken out <03947> of <04480> the man <0120>, and he brought <0935> her to <0413> the man <0120>.
23Then the man <0120> said <0559>, “This <02063> one at last <06471> is bone <06106> of my bones <06106> and flesh <01320> of my flesh <01320>; this <02063> one will be called <07121> ‘woman <0802>,’ for <03588> she was taken out <03947> of man <0376>.”
24That is why <03651> a man <0376> leaves <05800> his father <01> and mother <0517> and unites <01692> with his wife <0802>, and they become <01961> a <0259> new family <01320>.
25The man <0120> and his wife <0802> were both <08147> naked <06174>, but they were not <03808> ashamed <0954>.
