Genesis 2:4-7

412This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in 3the day that the Lord God made earth and heaven.

54Now no shrub of the field was yet on the earth, and no plant of the field had yet sprouted, 5for the Lord God had not sent rain upon the earth, and there was no man to 6cultivate the ground.

6But a 7mist used to rise from the earth and water the whole 8surface of the ground.

7Then the Lord God formed the man of 9dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the 10man became a living 11person.
