Genesis, chapter 1
1: In
the beginning Yahweh created the heavens and the earth.
2: The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of
the deep; and the Spirit of Yahweh was moving over the face of the waters.
3: And Yahweh said, "Let there be light"; and there was light.
4: And Yahweh saw that the light was good; and Yahweh separated the light
from the darkness.
5: Yahweh called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And
there was evening and there was morning, one day.
6: And Yahweh said, "Let there be a firmament in the midst of the
waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters."
7: And Yahweh made the firmament and separated the waters which were
under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament. And it was
so.
8: And Yahweh called the firmament Heaven. And there was evening and
there was morning, a second day.
9: And Yahweh said, "Let the waters under the heavens be gathered
together into one place, and let the dry land appear." And it was so.
10: Yahweh called the dry land Earth, and the waters that were gathered
together he called Seas. And Yahweh saw that it was good.
11: And Yahweh said, "Let the earth put forth vegetation, plants
yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each
according to its kind, upon the earth." And it was so.
12: The earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed according to
their own kinds, and trees bearing fruit in which is their seed, each according
to its kind. And Yahweh saw that it was good.
13: And there was evening and there was morning, a third day.
14: And Yahweh said, "Let there be lights in the firmament of the
heavens to separate the day from the night; and let them be for signs and for
seasons and for days and years,
15: and let them be lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light
upon the earth." And it was so.
16: And Yahweh made the two great lights, the greater light to rule the
day, and the lesser light to rule the night; he made the stars also.
17: And Yahweh set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light
upon the earth,
18: to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate the light
from the darkness. And Yahweh saw that it was good.
19: And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
20: And Yahweh said, "Let the waters bring forth swarms of living
creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the firmament of the
heavens."
21: So Yahweh created the great sea monsters and every living creature
that moves, with which the waters swarm, according to their kinds, and every
winged bird according to its kind. And Yahweh saw that it was good.
22: And Yahweh blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful and multiply and
fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth."
23: And there was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
24: And Yahweh said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures
according to their kinds: cattle and creeping things and beasts of the earth
according to their kinds." And it was so.
25: And Yahweh made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds and
the cattle according to their kinds, and everything that creeps upon the ground
according to its kind. And Yahweh saw that it was good.
26: Then Yahweh said, "Let us make man in our image, after our
likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the
birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every
creeping thing that creeps upon the earth."
27: So Yahweh created man in his own image, in the image of Yahweh he
created him; male and female he created them.
28: And Yahweh blessed them, and Yahweh said to them, "Be fruitful
and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish
of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves
upon the earth."
29: And Yahweh said, "Behold, I have given you every plant yielding
seed which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree with seed in its
fruit; you shall have them for food.
30: And to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the air, and to
everything that creeps on the earth, everything that has the breath of life, I
have given every green plant for food." And it was so.
31: And Yahweh saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very
good. And there was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
Genesis, chapter 2
1: Thus the heavens and the earth were
finished, and all the host of them.
2: And on the seventh day Yahweh finished his work which he had done, and
he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done.
3: So Yahweh blessed the seventh day and hallowed it, because on it Yahweh
rested from all his work which he had done in creation.
4: These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were
created. In the day that the LORD Yahweh made the earth and the heavens,
5: when no plant of the field was yet in the earth and no herb of the
field had yet sprung up -- for the LORD Yahweh had not caused it to rain upon
the earth, and there was no man to till the ground;
6: but a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole face of the
ground --
7: then the LORD Yahweh formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed
into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.
8: And the LORD Yahweh planted a garden in Eden, in the east; and there
he put the man whom he had formed.
9: And out of the ground the LORD Yahweh made 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: A river flowed out of Eden to water the garden, and there it divided
and became four rivers.
11: The name of the first is Pishon; it is the one which flows around the
whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
12: and the gold of that land is good; bdellium and onyx stone are there.
13: The name of the second river is Gihon; it is the one which flows
around the whole land of Cush.
14: And the name of the third river is Tigris, which flows east of
Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.
15: The LORD Yahweh took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to
till it and keep it.
16: And the LORD Yahweh commanded the man, saying, "You may freely
eat of every tree of the garden;
17: but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat,
for in the day that you eat of it you shall die."
18: Then the LORD Yahweh said, "It is not good that the man should
be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him."
19: So out of the ground the LORD Yahweh formed every beast of the field
and every bird of the air, and brought them to the man to see what he would call
them; and whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.
20: The man gave names to all cattle, and to the birds of the air, and to
every beast of the field; but for the man there was not found a helper fit for
him.
21: So the LORD Yahweh caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and
while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh;
22: and the rib which the LORD Yahweh had taken from the man he made into
a woman and brought her to the man.
23: Then the man said,
"This at last is bone of my bones
and flesh of my flesh;
she shall be called Woman,
because she was taken out of Man."
24: Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves to his
wife, and they become one flesh.
25: And the man and his wife were both naked, and were not ashamed.
