Genesis 2:10-20

10 A river flowed through Eden and watered the garden. From there the river branched out to become four rivers.
11 The first river, named Pishon, flows around the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.
12 The gold of that land is excellent. Bdellium and onyxn are also found there.
13 The second river, named Gihon, flows around the whole land of Cush.
14 The third river, named Tigris, flows out of Assyria toward the east. The fourth river is the Euphrates.
15 The Lord God put the man in the garden of Eden to care for it and work it.
16 The Lord God commanded him, "You may eat the fruit from any tree in the garden,
17 but you must not eat the fruit from the tree which gives the knowledge of good and evil. If you ever eat fruit from that tree, you will die!"
18 Then the Lord God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is right for him."
19 From the ground God formed every wild animal and every bird in the sky, and he brought them to the man so the man could name them. Whatever the man called each living thing, that became its name.
20 The man gave names to all the tame animals, to the birds in the sky, and to all the wild animals. But Adamn did not find a helper that was right for him.
