Genesis 2

Common English Bible CEB

1 The heavens and the earth and all who live in them were completed.

2 On the sixth day God completed all the work that he had done, and on the seventh day God rested from all the work that he had done.

3 God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it God rested from all the work of creation.

4 This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created.

5 On the day the LORD God made earth and sky—before any wild plants appeared on the earth, and before any field crops grew, because the LORD God hadn't yet sent rain on the earth and there was still no human being to farm the fertile land,

6 though a stream rose from the earth and watered all of the fertile land—

7 the LORD God formed the human from the topsoil of the fertile land and blew life's breath into his nostrils. The human came to life.

8 The LORD God planted a garden in Eden in the east and put there the human he had formed.

9 In the fertile land, the LORD God grew every beautiful tree with edible fruit, and also he grew the tree of life in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

10 A river flows from Eden to water the garden, and from there it divides into four headwaters.

11 The name of the first river is the Pishon. It flows around the entire land of Havilah, where there is gold.

12 That land's gold is pure, and the land also has sweet-smelling resins and gemstones.

13 The name of the second river is the Gihon. It flows around the entire land of Cush.

14 The name of the third river is the Tigris, flowing east of Assyria; and the name of the fourth river is the Euphrates.

15 The LORD God took the human and settled him in the garden of Eden to farm it and to take care of it.

16 The LORD God commanded the human, "Eat your fill from all of the garden's trees;

17 but don't eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, because on the day you eat from it, you will die!"

18 Then the LORD God said, "It's not good that the human is alone. I will make him a helper that is perfect for him."

19 So the LORD God formed from the fertile land all the wild animals and all the birds in the sky and brought them to the human to see what he would name them. The human gave each living being its name.

20 The human named all the livestock, all the birds in the sky, and all the wild animals. But a helper perfect for him was nowhere to be found.

21 So the LORD God put the human into a deep and heavy sleep, and took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh over it.

22 With the rib taken from the human, the LORD God fashioned a woman and brought her to the human being.

23 The human said,

24 "This one finally is bone from my bones and flesh from my flesh. She will be called a woman because from a man she was taken." This is the reason that a man leaves his father and mother and embraces his wife, and they become one flesh.

25 The two of them were naked, the man and his wife, but they weren't embarrassed.

English Standard Version ESV

1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.

2 And on the seventh day God finished his work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work that he had done.

3 So God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it God rested from all his work that 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 God made the earth and the heavens.

5 When no bush of the field was yet in the land and no small plant of the field had yet sprung up—for the Lord God had not caused it to rain on the land, and there was no man to work the ground,

6 and a mist was going up from the land and was watering the whole face of the ground—

7 then the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature.

8 And the Lord God 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 God made to spring up every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was 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 the Pishon. It is the one that flowed 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 the Gihon. It is the one that flowed around the whole land of Cush.

14 And the name of the third river is the Tigris, which flows east of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.

15 The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it.

16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “You may surely 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 surely die. ”

18 Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him. ”

19 Now out of the ground the Lord God had formed every beast of the field and every bird of the heavens 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 livestock and to the birds of the heavens and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper fit for him.

21 So the Lord God 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 that the Lord God 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 shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

25 And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed.
