Genesis 2 BSB

The Seventh Day

1 Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array. See the Hebrew order

2 And by the seventh day God had finished the work He had been doing; so on that day He rested from all His work. See the Hebrew order

3 Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because on that day He rested from all the work of creation that He had accomplished. See the Hebrew order

Man and Woman in the Garden

4 This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made them. See the Hebrew order

5 Now no shrub of the field had yet appeared on the earth, nor had any plant of the field sprouted, for the LORD God had not yet sent rain upon the earth, and there was no man to cultivate the ground. See the Hebrew order

6 But springs welled up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground. See the Hebrew order

7 Then the LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed the breath of life into his nostrils, and the man became a living being. See the Hebrew order

8 And the LORD God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, where He placed the man He had formed. See the Hebrew order

9 Out of the ground the LORD God gave growth to every tree that is pleasing to the eye and good for food. And in the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. See the Hebrew order

10 Now a river flowed out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it branched into four headwaters: See the Hebrew order

11 The name of the first river is the Pishon; it winds through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold. See the Hebrew order

12 And the gold of that land is pure, and bdellium and onyx are found there. See the Hebrew order

13 The name of the second river is the Gihon; it winds through the whole land of Cush. See the Hebrew order

14 The name of the third river is the Tigris; it runs along the east side of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates. See the Hebrew order

15 Then the LORD God took the man and placed him in the Garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it. See the Hebrew order

16 And the LORD God commanded him, “You may eat freely from every tree of the garden, See the Hebrew order

17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely die.” See the Hebrew order

18 The LORD God also said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make for him a suitable helper.” See the Hebrew order

19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and He brought them to the man to see what he would name each one. And whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. See the Hebrew order

20 The man gave names to all the livestock, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam no suitable helper was found. See the Hebrew order

21 So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep, and while he slept, He took one of the man’s ribs and closed up the area with flesh. See the Hebrew order

22 And from the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man, He made a woman and brought her to him. See the Hebrew order

23 And the man said: “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’ for out of man she was taken.” See the Hebrew order

24 For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh. See the Hebrew order

25 And the man and his wife were both naked, and they were not ashamed. See the Hebrew order
