Genesis 2:1-9

1Thus the heavensH8064 and the earthH776 were finishedH3615, and all the host of themH6635. 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

4TheseH428are the generationsH8435 of the heavensH8064 and of the earthH776 when they were createdH1254, in the dayH3117 that the LORDH3068 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 the LORDH3068 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 the LORDH3068 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

8And the LORDH3068 GodH430 plantedH5193 a gardenH1588 eastwardH6924 in EdenH5731; and thereH8033 he putH7760 the manH120 whomH834 he had formedH3335. 9And outH4480 of the groundH127 madeH6779 the LORDH3068 GodH430 to growH6779 every treeH6086 that is pleasantH2530 to the sightH4758, and goodH2896 for foodH3978; the treeH6086 of lifeH2416 also in the midstH8432 of the gardenH1588, and the treeH6086 of knowledgeH1847 of goodH2896 and evilH7451.
