1 The heavens, the earth, and all their vast array were finished. 2 On the seventh day God finished his work which he had done; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done. 3 God blessed the seventh day, and made it holy, because he rested in it from all his work of creation which he had done.
4 This is the history of the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that Yahweh God made the earth and the heavens. 5 No plant of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up; for Yahweh God had not caused it to rain on the earth. There was not a man to till the ground, 6 but a mist went up from the earth, and watered the whole surface of the ground. 7 Yahweh God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. 8 Yahweh God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed. 9 Out of the ground Yahweh God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, including the tree of life in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. 10 A river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it was parted, and became the source of four rivers. 11 The name of the first is Pishon: it flows through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold; 12 and the gold of that land is good. Bdellium and onyx stone are also there. 13 The name of the second river is Gihon. It is the same river that flows through the whole land of Cush. 14 The name of the third river is Hiddekel. This is the one which flows in front of Assyria. The fourth river is the Euphrates. 15 Yahweh God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it. 16 Yahweh God commanded the man, saying, "You may freely eat of every tree of the garden; 17 but you shall not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely die."
18 Yahweh God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a helper comparable to him." 19 Out of the ground Yahweh God formed every animal of the field, and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the man called every living creature became its name. 20 The man gave names to all livestock, and to the birds of the sky, and to every animal of the field; but for man there was not found a helper comparable to him. 21 Yahweh God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep. As the man slept, he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place. 22 Yahweh God made a woman from the rib which he had taken from the man, and brought her to the man. 23 The man said, "This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called ‘woman,’ because she was taken out of Man." 24 Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh. 25 The man and his wife were both naked, and they were not ashamed.
1 这样， 天地万物都造齐了。
2 第七日， 神完成了他所作的工； 在第七日 神歇了他所作的一切工。
3 神赐福第七日， 把它分别为圣， 因为在这一日， 神停了他一切所创造的工， 歇息了。
4 这是创造天地的起源： 耶和华 神造天地的时候，
5 原野上还没有树木， 田间的蔬菜还没有长起来， 因为耶和华 神还没有降雨在地上， 也没有人耕种土地；
6 不过有雾气从地面上升， 滋润全地。
7 耶和华 神用地上的尘土造成人形， 把生气吹进他的鼻孔里， 那人就成了有生命的活人， 名叫亚当。
8 耶和华 神在东方的伊甸， 栽了一个园子， 把他所造的人放在那里。
9 耶和华 神使各样的树从地上长起来， 能悦人的眼目， 也好作食物。园子中间又有生命树， 和知善恶树。
10 有一条河从伊甸流出来， 灌溉那园子； 从那里分支， 成了四道河的源头。
11 第一道河名叫比逊， 就是环绕哈腓拉全地的， 在那里有金子；
12 那地的金子是好的； 在那里也有红玉和玛瑙。
13 第二道河名叫基训， 就是环绕古实全地的。
14 第三道河名叫底格里斯河（"底格里斯河"原文作"希底结"）， 就是流向亚述东边的。第四道河就是幼发拉底河（"幼发拉底河"原文作"伯拉河"）。
15 耶和华 神把那人安置在伊甸园里， 叫他耕种和看守那园子。
16 耶和华 神吩咐那人说： "园中各样树上的果子， 你都可以吃；
17 只是那知善恶树的果子， 你不可吃； 因为你吃的时候， 你必要死。"
18 耶和华 神说： "那人独居不好， 我要为他造个和他相配的帮手。"
19 耶和华 神用泥土造了野地的各样野兽， 和空中的各样飞鸟， 把它们都带到那人面前， 看他给它们叫什么名字； 那人怎样叫各样有生命的活物， 那就是它的名字。
20 那人就给各样牲畜、空中的雀鸟， 和野地的各样走兽起了名字； 只是那人没有遇见一个和他相配的帮手。
21 耶和华 神使那人沉睡。他熟睡的时候， 耶和华 神取了他的一根肋骨， 又使肉在原处复合。
22 然后， 耶和华 神用从那人身上所取的肋骨， 造了一个女人， 带她到那人面前。
23 那人说： "这是我骨中的骨， 肉中的肉； 她当称为女人， 因她是从男人身上取出来的。"
24 因此人要离开父母， 和妻子连合， 二人成为一体。
25 那时， 夫妻二人赤身露体， 彼此都不觉得羞耻。
