And God had finished on the seventh day his work which he had made ; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made . And God blessed the seventh day , and hallowed it , because that on it he rested from all his work which God had created in making it . These are the histories of the heavens and the earth , when they were created , in the day that Jehovah Elohim made earth and heavens , and every shrub of the field before it was in the earth , and every herb of the field before it grew ; for Jehovah Elohim had not caused it to rain on the earth , and there was no man to till the ground . But a mist went up from the earth , and moistened the whole surface of the ground . And Jehovah Elohim formed Man , dust of the ground , and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life ; and Man became a living soul . And Jehovah Elohim planted a garden in Eden eastward , and there put Man whom he had formed . And out of the ground Jehovah Elohim made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight , and good for food ; and the tree of life , in the midst of the garden , and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil . And a river went out of Eden , to water the garden ; and from thence it was parted , and became four main streams . The name of the one is Pison : that is it which surrounds the whole land of Havilah , where the gold is . And the gold of that land is good ; bdellium and the onyx stone are there . And the name of the second river is Gihon : that is it which surrounds the whole land of Cush . And the name of the third river is Hiddekel : that is it which flows forward toward Asshur . And the fourth river , that is Euphrates . And Jehovah Elohim took Man , and put him into the garden of Eden , to till it and to guard it . And Jehovah Elohim commanded Man , saying , Of every tree of the garden thou shalt freely eat ; but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil , thou shalt not eat of it ; for in the day that thou eatest of it thou shalt certainly die . And Jehovah Elohim said , It is not good that Man should be alone ; I will make him a helpmate , his like . And out of the ground Jehovah Elohim had formed every animal of the field and all fowl of the heavens , and brought [ them ] to Man , to see what he would call them ; and whatever Man called each living soul , that was its name . And Man gave names to all cattle , and to the fowl of the heavens , and to every beast of the field ; but as for Adam , he found no helpmate , his like . And Jehovah Elohim caused a deep sleep to fall upon Man ; and he slept . And he took one of his ribs and closed up flesh in its stead . And Jehovah Elohim built the rib that he had taken from Man into a woman ; and brought her to Man . And Man said , This time it is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh : this shall be called Woman , because this was taken out of a man . Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother , and cleave to his wife ; and they shall become one flesh . And they were both naked , Man and his wife , and were not ashamed . And the serpent was more crafty than any animal of the field which Jehovah Elohim had made . And it said to the woman , Is it even so , that God has said , Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden ? And the woman said to the serpent , We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden ; but of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden , God has said , Ye shall not eat of it , and ye shall not touch it , lest ye die . And the serpent said to the woman , Ye will not certainly die ; but God knows that in the day ye eat of it , your eyes will be opened , and ye will be as God , knowing good and evil . And the woman saw that the tree was good for food , and that it was a pleasure for the eyes , and the tree was to be desired to give intelligence ; and she took of its fruit , and ate , and gave also to her husband with her , and he ate . 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 . And they heard the voice of Jehovah Elohim , walking in the garden in the cool of the day . And Man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Jehovah Elohim , in the midst of the trees of the garden . And Jehovah Elohim called to Man , and said to him , Where art thou ? And he said , I heard thy voice in the garden , and I feared , because I am naked ; and I hid myself . And he said , Who told thee that thou art naked ? Hast thou eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee not to eat ? And Man said , The woman , whom thou hast given [ to be ] with me , she gave me of the tree , and I ate . And Jehovah Elohim said to the woman , What is this thou hast done ? And the woman said , The serpent deceived me , and I ate . And Jehovah Elohim said to the serpent , Because thou hast done this , be thou cursed above all cattle , and above every beast of the field . On thy belly shalt thou go , and eat dust all the days of thy life . And I will put enmity between thee and the woman , and between thy seed and her seed ; he shall crush thy head , and thou shalt crush his heel . To the woman he said , I will greatly increase thy travail and thy pregnancy ; with pain thou shalt bear children ; and to thy husband shall be thy desire , and he shall rule over thee . And to Adam he said , Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife , and eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee saying , Thou shalt not eat of it : cursed be the ground on thy account ; with toil shalt thou eat [ of ] it all the days of thy life ; and thorns and thistles shall it yield thee ; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field . In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread , until thou return to the ground : for out of it wast thou taken . For dust thou art ; and unto dust shalt thou return . And Man called his wife's name Eve ; because she is the mother of all living . And Jehovah Elohim made Adam and his wife coats of skin , and clothed them . And Jehovah Elohim said , Behold , Man is become as one of us , to know good and evil . And now , lest he stretch out his hand , and take also of the tree of life , and eat , and live for ever . . . ! Therefore Jehovah Elohim sent him forth from the garden of Eden , to till the ground from which he was taken . And he drove out Man ; and he set the Cherubim , and the flame of the flashing sword , toward the east of the garden of Eden , to guard the way to the tree of life . And Man knew Eve his wife ; and she conceived , and bore Cain , and said , I have acquired a man with Jehovah . And she further bore his brother Abel . And Abel was a shepherd , but Cain was a husbandman . And in process of time it came to pass that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering to Jehovah . And Abel , he also brought of the firstlings of his flock , and of their fat . And Jehovah looked upon Abel , and on his offering ; and upon Cain , and on his offering , he did not look . And Cain was very angry , and his countenance fell . And Jehovah said to Cain , Why art thou angry , and why is thy countenance fallen ? If thou doest well , will not [ thy countenance ] look up [ with confidence ] ? and if thou doest not well , sin lieth at the door ; and unto thee [ shall be ] his desire , and thou shalt rule over him . And Cain spoke to Abel his brother , and it came to pass when they were in the field , that Cain rose up against Abel his brother , and slew him . And Jehovah said to Cain , Where is Abel thy brother ? And he said , I know not : am I my brother's keeper ? And he said , What hast thou done ? the voice of thy brother's blood is crying to me from the ground . And now be thou cursed from the ground , which hath opened its mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand . When thou tillest the ground , it shall not henceforth yield thee its strength ; a wanderer and fugitive shalt thou be on the earth . And Cain said to Jehovah , My punishment is too great to be borne . Behold , thou hast driven me this day from the face of the ground , and from thy face shall I be hid ; and I shall be a wanderer and fugitive on the earth ; and it will come to pass , [ that ] every one who finds me will slay me . And Jehovah said to him , Therefore , whoever slayeth Cain , it shall be revenged sevenfold . And Jehovah set a mark on Cain , lest any finding him should smite him . And Cain went out from the presence of Jehovah , and dwelt in the land of Nod , toward the east of Eden . And Cain knew his wife , and she conceived and bore Enoch . And he built a city ; and he called the name of the city after the name of his son Enoch . And to Enoch was born Irad ; and Irad begot Mehujael ; and Mehujael begot Methushael ; and Methushael begot Lemech . And Lemech took two wives : the name of the one was Adah , and the name of the second , Zillah . And Adah bore Jabal : he was the father of those who dwell in tents , and [ breed ] cattle . And his brother's name was Jubal : he was the father of those who handle the harp and pipe . And Zillah , she also bore Tubal-Cain , the forger of every kind of tool of brass and iron . And the sister of Tubal-Cain was Naamah . And Lemech said to his wives : Adah and Zillah , hear my voice , Ye wives of Lemech , listen to my speech . For I have slain a man for my wound , and a youth for my bruise . If Cain shall be avenged seven-fold ; Lemech seventy and seven fold . And Adam knew his wife again , and she bore a son , and called his name Seth : . . . For God has appointed me another seed instead of Abel , because Cain has slain him . And to Seth , to him also was born a son ; and he called his name Enosh . Then people began to call on the name of Jehovah . This is the book of Adam's generations . In the day that God created man , in the likeness of God made he him . Male and female created he them ; and blessed them , and called their name Adam , in the day when they were created . And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years , and begot [ a son ] in his likeness , after his image , and called his name Seth . And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years ; and he begot sons and daughters . And all the days of Adam that he lived were nine hundred and thirty years ; and he died . And Seth lived a hundred and five years , and begot Enosh .Public Domain
