Genesis 2:2-7

2And on the seventhH7637 dayH3117 GodH430 endedH3615 his workH4399 which he had madeH6213; and he restedH7673 on the seventhH7637 dayH3117 from all his workH4399 which he had madeH6213. 3And GodH430 blessedH1288 the seventhH7637 dayH3117, and sanctifiedH6942 it: becauseH3588 that in it he had restedH7673 from all his workH4399 which GodH430 createdH1254 and madeH6213.1

4TheseH428 are the generationsH8435 of the heavensH8064 and of the earthH776 when they were createdH1254, in the dayH3117 that YhwhH3068 GodH430 madeH6213 the earthH776 and the heavensH8064, 5And every plantH7880 of the fieldH7704 beforeH2962 it was in the earthH776, and every herbH6212 of the fieldH7704 beforeH2962 it grewH6779: forH3588 YhwhH3068 GodH430 had notH3808 caused it to rainH4305 upon the earthH776, and there was notH369 a manH120 to tillH5647 the groundH127. 6But there went upH5927 a mistH108 fromH4480 the earthH776, and wateredH8248 the whole faceH6440 of the groundH127.2 7And YhwhH3068 GodH430 formedH3335 manH120 of the dustH6083 ofH4480 the groundH127, and breathedH5301 into his nostrilsH639 the breathH5397 of lifeH2416; and manH120 became a livingH2416 soulH5315.3
