Chapter 1
Creation of the world.
- In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
- And the earth was desolate and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was hovering upon the face of the waters.
- And God said, Let there be light. And there was light.
- And God saw that the light was good. Then God separated the light from the darkness.
- And called the light Day, and the darkness Night. And the evening and the morning became the first day.
- And God said, Let there be a firmament between the waters, and let there be a difference between the waters.
- And God made the stronghold, and separated the waters that were under the stronghold from the waters that were above the stronghold. And it came to pass thus.
- And God called the firmament heaven. And the evening and the morning became another day.
- And God said, Let the waters under heaven be gathered together into divers places, that they may be seen that are dry. And it came to pass thus.
- And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering of the waters He called Sea. And God saw that it was good.
- And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, and herb yielding seed, and fruitful trees; that every man may bring forth fruit after his kind, and have his own seed with him in the earth.
And it came to pass thus. - And the earth brought forth grass, and herbage that had her seed, every one after his kind, and trees that bare fruit, and had their own seed by themselves, every one after his kind. And God saw that it was good.
- And the evening and the morning were the third day.
- And God said, There shall be lights in the firmament of heaven, dividing day from night, and giving signs, times, days, and years;
- And be lights in the firmament of heaven, that they may shine upon the earth. And it came to pass thus.
- And God made two great lights, a great light to rule the day, and a small light to rule the
night, and stars also. - And God set them in the firmament of heaven, to shine upon the earth.
- And they ruled the day and the night, and separated the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
- And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
- And God said, Let the waters be filled with beasts of the air, and with living creatures, and with fowl that fly upon the earth under the firmament of heaven.
- And God created great whales, and every living creature, and every beast that creepeth upon the waters after his kind, and every feathered fowl after his kind. And God saw that it was good.
- And GOD blessed them, and said: Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters of the sea; and let the fowl multiply upon the earth.
- And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
- And God said, Let the earth bring forth living creatures, every one after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth, every one after his kind. And it came to pass thus.
- And God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and all the creeping things of the earth after their kind. And God saw, that it was good.
- And God said, Let us make man in our image, like unto us, having dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
- And God created man in his image, in the image of God created he him; and created them male and female.
- And God blessed them, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
- And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb that creepeth upon the face of the whole earth, and every fruitful tree, and every tree that creepeth, for your meat, 30. And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every creeping thing that hath life upon the earth, to eat every green herb. And it came to pass thus.
- And God looked on all that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning became the sixth day.
(Genesis)
Chapter 2
Of the Sabbath, the essential pieces of man. Garden of Paradise. God’s Commandment. Marriage. - So the heavens and the earth were finished with all their host.
- And so on the seventh day God finished his works which he had made, and rested on the seventh day from all his works which he had made;
- And blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it, because he had rested in it from all his works which God created and made.
- So the heavens and the earth were created at the time that God the Lord made the earth and the heavens.
- And every tree of the field, which was not before in the earth, and every herb of the field, which grew not before. For God the LORD had not yet caused it to rain upon the earth, neither was there any man to till the ground.
- But a mist came up from the earth, and wetted all the land.
- And God the LORD made man of a crock of earth, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life. And so man became a living soul.
- And God the LORD planted a garden in Eden eastward, and put therein the man whom he had made.
- And God the LORD caused to grow up out of the earth every tree 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 knowledge of good and evil.
- And there went out of Eden a river to water the garden, and there it divided itself into four
principal waters. - The name of the first is Pison, which hath a fever throughout all the land of Hevilah, and there is found gold.
- And the gold of the land is precious, and there is found bedellion, and the precious stone onyx.
- And the other water is called Gihon, which goeth round about all the land of the Moors.
- The third water is called Hiddekel, the flood of Assyria. The fourth water is Phrath.
- And God the LORD took the man, and put him in the garden of Eden, to build it, and to keep it.
- And God the LORD commanded the man, saying, Thou shalt eat of every tree of the garden; 17. But of the tree of knowledge, of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it. For in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
- And God the LORD said. It is not good that a man should be alone; I will make him a helpmeet to be with him.
- For when God the LORD had made of the earth all manner of beasts of the field, and all manner of fowls of the air, he brought them unto man to see what he should call them: for as man shall call all manner of living creatures, so shall they be called.
- And man gave his name to every beast, and to every fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field: but there was found no helper for man to go about him.
- And God the LORD cast a deep sleep upon the man, and he slept. And he took one of his ribs, and closed up the place with flesh.
- And God the LORD made a woman of the rib which he took from man, and brought her unto him.
- And the man said, Surely this is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She shall be called a woman, because she is taken from a man.
- Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
- And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
(Genesis)

Adam and Eve sin. Their punishment. Promise of the Messiah. - And the serpent was more cunning than all the beasts of the field, which God the LORD had made, and said unto the woman, Yea, God should have said: Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden.
- Then said the woman unto the serpent: We eat from the fruit of the trees in the garden; 3. But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Eat not of it, neither touch it, lest ye die.
- And the serpent said unto
