The First Book of Moses Called Genesis

 1 Thus the heavens and the ^aearth were finished, and all the ^bhost of them.

 2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had ^amade; and he ^brested on the seventh day from all his ^cwork which he had made.

 3 And God blessed the ^aseventh day, and ^bsanctified it: because that in it he had ^crested from all his work which God ^dcreated and made.

 4 ¶These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were ^acreated, in the day that the ^bLord God made the earth and the heavens,

 5 And every ^aplant of the field ^bbefore it was in the ^cearth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a ^dman to till the ^eground.

 6 But there went up a ^amist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.

 7 And the Lord God ^aformed ^bman of the ^cdust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the ^dbreath of life; and ^eman became a living ^fsoul.

 8 ¶And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in ^aEden; 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 ^asight, and good for ^bfood; the ^ctree of ^dlife also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of ^eknowledge of good and evil.

 10 And a river went out of ^aEden to water the garden; and from thence it was ^bparted, and became into four heads.

 11 The name of the first is Pison: that is it which ^acompasseth the whole land of ^bHavilah, where there is gold;

 12 And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and ^athe onyx stone.

 13 And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that ^acompasseth the whole land of ^bEthiopia.

 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 ^agarden of ^bEden ^cto dress it and to ^dkeep it.

 16 And the Lord God ^acommanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest ^bfreely eat:

 17 But of the ^atree of the ^bknowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the ^cday that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely ^ddie.

 18 ¶And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be ^aalone; I will make him ^ban 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 ^aAdam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the ^bname 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 ^awoman, and brought her unto the man.

 23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and ^aflesh of my flesh: she shall be called ^bWoman, because she was taken out of Man.

 24 Therefore shall a ^aman leave his ^bfather and his mother, and shall ^ccleave unto his ^dwife: and they shall be ^eone flesh.

 25 And they were both ^anaked, the man and his wife, and were not ^bashamed.
