(KJV) Genesis 2¹

⥃The Seventh Day ^{[ Exodus 16:22–30 † Hebrews 4:1–11 ]}

[1] Thus² the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host³ of them. [2] And on⁴ the seventh day God⁵ ended his work which he had made; and he rested⁶ on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. [3] And God blessed⁷ the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made⁸.

⥃Man and Woman in the Garden

[4] These [are] the generations⁹ of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord¹⁰ God made the earth and the heavens, [5] And every plant¹¹ of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not¹² caused it to rain upon the earth, and [there was] not a man to till¹³ the ground. [6] But there went up a mist¹⁴ from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground. [7] And the Lord God formed man¹⁵ [of] the dust¹⁶¹⁷ of the ground, and breathed¹⁸ into his nostrils¹⁹ the breath of life; and man became a living²⁰ soul.

[8] And the Lord God planted a garden²¹ eastward²² in Eden; and there he put the²³ man whom he had formed. [9] And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every²⁴ tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food; the tree of life²⁵ also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge²⁶ of good and evil. [10] And a river²⁷ went out of Eden²⁸ to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads. [11] The name of the first [is] Pison: that [is] it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah²⁹, where [there is] gold; [12] And the gold of that land [is] good: there [is] bdellium and the onyx³⁰ stone.³¹³² [13] And the name of the second river [is] Gihon³³: the same [is] it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia³⁴. [14] And the name of the third river [is] Hiddekel³⁵: that [is] it which goeth toward the east of³⁶ Assyria. And the fourth river [is] Euphrates³⁷. [15] And the Lord God took the man³⁸, and put³⁹ him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. [16] And the Lord God⁴⁰ commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat⁴¹: [17] But of the tree⁴² of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely⁴³ die⁴⁴.

[18] And the Lord God said, [It is] not good⁴⁵ that the man should be alone; I will⁴⁶ make him an help meet for him⁴⁷. [19] And out⁴⁸ of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought⁴⁹ [them] unto Adam⁵⁰ to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that [was] the name thereof. [20] And Adam gave names to⁵¹ all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but⁵² for Adam there was not found an help meet for him. [21] And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;⁵³ [22] And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made⁵⁴ he a woman, and brought⁵⁵ her unto the man. [23] And Adam said, This [is] now bone⁵⁶ of my bones, and flesh⁵⁷ of my flesh: she shall be called Woman⁵⁸, because she was taken⁵⁹ out of Man⁶⁰. [24] Therefore shall a man leave⁶¹ his father and his mother, and shall cleave⁶² unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh⁶³. [25] And they were both naked⁶⁴, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed⁶⁵.
