Genesis
Chapter 2
8. And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and
there he put the man whom he had formed.
9. And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree
that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree
of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of
knowledge of good and evil.
10. And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from
thence it was parted, and became into four heads.
11. The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth
the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
12. And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the
onyx stone.
13. And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it
that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia.
14. And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it
which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river
is Euphrates.
15. And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden
of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
16. And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of
the garden thou mayest freely eat:
17. But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou
shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof
thou shalt surely die.
18. And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be
alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
19. And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the
field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam
to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called
every living creature, that was the name thereof.
20. And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the
air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was
not found an help meet for him.
21. And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and
he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the
flesh instead thereof;
22. And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he
a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my
flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out
of Man.
24. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and
shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
25. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not
ashamed.
Chapter 3
1. Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field
which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman,
Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the
garden?
2. And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit
of the trees of the garden:
3. But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the
garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall
ye touch it, lest ye die.
4. And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely
die:
5. For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your
eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good
and evil.
6. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and
that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired
to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did
eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did
eat.
7. And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that
they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and
made themselves aprons.
8. And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the
garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid
themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the
trees of the garden.
9. And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where
art thou?
10. And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was
afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
11. And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou
eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou
shouldest not eat?
12. And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me,
she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
13. And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou
hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and
I did eat.
14. And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast
done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every
beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust
shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
15. And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and
between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and
thou shalt bruise his heel.
16. Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow
and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth
children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he
shall rule over thee.
17. And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the
voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I
commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is
the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all
the days of thy life;
18. Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and
thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
19. In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou
return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for
dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
20. And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the
mother of all living.
21. Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats
of skins, and clothed them.
22. And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of
us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his
hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live
for ever:
23. Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of
Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
24. So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the
garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned
every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
