Genesis 2:1-7

The Seventh Day, God Rests

1Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and aall the host of them. 2And bon 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. 3So God blessed the seventh day and made it holy, because on it God rested from all his work that he had done in creation.

The Creation of Man and Woman

4 cThese 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.
5When no dbush of the field
Or open country
was yet in the land
Or earth; also verse 6
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 gto work the ground,
6and a mist
Or spring
was going up from the land and was watering the whole face of the ground
7then the Lord God formed the man of idust from the ground and jbreathed into his knostrils the breath of life, and lthe man became a living creature.
