2:1  Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the
host of them.
 2:2  And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had
made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which
he had made.
 2:3  And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it:
because that in it he had rested from all his work which God
created and made.
 2:4  These [are] the generations of the heavens and of the
earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made
the earth and the heavens,
 2:5  And every plant of the field before it was in the earth,
and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God
had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and [there was] not a
man to till the ground.
 2:6  But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the
whole face of the ground.
 2:7  And 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.
 2:8  And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and
there he put the man whom he had formed.
 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
knowledge of good and evil.
 2:10  And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and
from thence it was parted, and became into four heads.
 2:11  The name of the first [is] Pison: that [is] it which
compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where [there is] gold;
 2:12  And the gold of that land [is] good: there [is] bdellium
and the onyx stone.
 2:13  And the name of the second river [is] Gihon: the same
[is] it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia.
 2:14  And the name of the third river [is] Hiddekel: that [is]
it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river
[is] Euphrates.
 2:15  And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the
garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
 2:16  And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every
tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
 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.
 2:18  And the LORD God said, [It is] not good that the man
should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
 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
Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called
every living creature, that [was] the name thereof.
 2:20  And Adam 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 an help meet for him.
 2:21  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;
 2:22  And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made
he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
 2:23  And Adam 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.
 2:24  Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother,
and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
 2:25  And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were
not ashamed.
