The Holy Tanakh: Genesis: Chapter 1
|
|
{29}
And God said: 'Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed--to you it shall be for food;
|
{30}
and to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is a living soul, I have given every green herb for food' And it was so.
|
{31}
And God saw every thing that He had made, and, behold, it was very good And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.

The Holy Tanakh: Genesis: Chapter 2
|
|
{1}
And the heaven and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
|
{2}
And on the seventh day God finished His work which He had made; and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made.
|
{3}
And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it; because that in it He rested from all His work which God in creating had made.
|
{4}
These are the generations of the heaven and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made earth and heaven.
|
{5}
No shrub of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up; for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground;
|
{6}
but there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
|
{7}
Then the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
|
{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 the 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 four heads.
|
{11}
The name of the first is Pishon; 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 Cush.
|
{14}
And the name of the third river is Tigris; that is it which goeth toward the east of Asshur And the fourth river is the 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 a help meet for him.'
