Genesis 2
1 And the heavens and the earth were finished, and the whole world of them.
And the heavens and the earth are completed, and all their host;
2 And God finished on the sixth day his works which he made, and he ceased on the seventh day from all his works which he made.
and God completeth by the seventh day His work which He hath made, and ceaseth by the seventh day from all His work which He hath made.
3 And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it he ceased from all his works which God began to do.
And God blesseth the seventh day, and sanctifieth it, for in it He hath ceased from all His work which God had prepared for making.
4 This [is] the book of the generation of heaven and earth, when they were made, in the day in which the Lord God made the heaven and the earth,
These [are] births of the heavens and of the earth in their being prepared, in the day of Jehovah God's making earth and heavens;
5 and every herb of the field before it was on the earth, and all the grass of the field before it sprang up, for God had not rained on the earth, and there was not a man to cultivate it.
and no shrub of the field is yet in the earth, and no herb of the field yet sprouteth, for Jehovah God hath not rained upon the earth, and a man there is not to serve the ground,
6 But there rose a fountain out of the earth, and watered the whole face of the earth.
and a mist goeth up from the earth, and hath watered the whole face of the ground.
7 And God formed the man [of] dust of the earth, and breathed upon his face the breath of life, and the man became a living soul.
And Jehovah God formeth the man — dust from the ground, and breatheth into his nostrils breath of life, and the man becometh a living creature.
8 And God planted a garden eastward in Edem, and placed there the man whom he had formed.
And Jehovah God planteth a garden in Eden, at the east, and He setteth there the man whom He hath formed;
9 And God made to spring up also out of the earth every tree beautiful to the eye and good for food, and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of learning the knowledge of good and evil.
and Jehovah God causeth to sprout from the ground every tree desirable for appearance, and good for food, and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
10 And a river proceeds out of Edem to water the garden, thence it divides itself into four heads.
And a river is going out from Eden to water the garden, and from thence it is parted, and hath become four chief [rivers];
11 The name of the one, Phisom, this it is which encircles the whole land of Evilat, where there is gold.
the name of the one [is] Pison, it [is] that which is surrounding the whole land of the Havilah where the gold [is],
12 And the gold of that land is good, there also is carbuncle and emerald.
and the gold of that land [is] good, there [is] the bdolach and the shoham stone;
13 And the name of the second river is Geon, this it is which encircles the whole land of Ethiopia.
and the name of the second river [is] Gibon, it [is] that which is surrounding the whole land of Cush;
14 And the third river is Tigris, this is that which flows forth over against the Assyrians. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
and the name of the third river [is] Hiddekel, it [is] that which is going east of Asshur; and the fourth river is Phrat.
15 And the Lord God took the man whom he had formed, and placed him in the garden of Delight, to cultivate and keep it.
And Jehovah God taketh the man, and causeth him to rest in the garden of Eden, to serve it, and to keep it.
16 And the Lord God gave a charge to Adam, saying, Of every tree which is in the garden thou mayest freely eat,
And Jehovah God layeth a charge on the man, saying, 'Of every tree of the garden eating thou dost eat;
17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil—of it ye shall not eat, but in whatsoever day ye eat of it, ye shall surely die.
and of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou dost not eat of it, for in the day of thine eating of it — dying thou dost die.'
18 And the Lord God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone, let us make for him a help suitable to him.
And Jehovah God saith, 'Not good for the man to be alone, I do make to him an helper — as his counterpart.'
19 And God formed yet farther out of the earth all the wild beasts of the field, and all the birds of the sky, and he brought them to Adam, to see what he would call them, and whatever Adam called any living creature, that was the name of it.
And Jehovah God formeth from the ground every beast of the field, and every fowl of the heavens, and bringeth in unto the man, to see what he doth call it; and whatever the man calleth a living creature, that [is] its name.
20 And Adam gave names to all the cattle and to all the birds of the sky, and to all the wild beasts of the field, but for Adam there was not found a help like to himself.
And the man calleth names to all the cattle, and to fowl of the heavens, and to every beast of the field; and to man hath not been found an helper — as his counterpart.
21 And God brought a trance upon Adam, and he slept, and he took one of his ribs, and filled up the flesh instead thereof.
And Jehovah God causeth a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he sleepeth, and He taketh one of his ribs, and closeth up flesh in its stead.
22 And God formed the rib which he took from Adam into a woman, and brought her to Adam.
And Jehovah God buildeth up the rib which He hath taken out of the man into a woman, and bringeth her in unto the man;
23 And Adam said, This now is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called woman, because she was taken out of her husband.
and the man saith, 'This [is] the [proper] step! bone of my bone, and flesh of my flesh!' for this it is called Woman, for from a man hath this been taken;
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
therefore doth a man leave his father and his mother, and hath cleaved unto his wife, and they have become one flesh.
And they are both of them naked, the man and his wife, and they are not ashamed of themselves.
