Ps 33.6
Thus the heavens and the earth were finished and all their multitude. 2#Ex 20.11; Heb 4.4On the sixth#2.2 Sam Gk Syr: MT seventh day God finished the work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all the work that he had done. 3#Isa 58.13So God blessed the seventh day and hallowed it, because on it God rested from all the work that he had done in creation.
4These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were created.
Another Account of the Creation
In the day that the Lord#2.4 Heb YHWH, as in other places where “Lord” is spelled with capital letters (see also Ex 3.14–15 with notes) God made the earth and the heavens, 5#Gen 1.12; Job 38.26–28when no plant of the field was yet in the earth and no vegetation of the field had yet sprung up—for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was no one to till the ground, 6but a stream would rise from the earth and water the whole face of the ground— 7#Gen 3.19; Job 33.4; Ps 103.14; Acts 17.25; 1 Cor 15.45then the Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground#2.7 In Heb the word for ground resembles the word for man and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. 8#Gen 3.24; 4.16; Isa 51.3And the Lord God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and there he put the man whom he had formed. 9#Gen 3.22; Ezek 31.8; Rev 2.7; 22.2, 14Out of the ground the Lord God made to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food, the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10A river flows out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it divides and becomes four branches. 11The name of the first is Pishon; it is the one that flows around the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold, 12#Num 11.7and the gold of that land is good; bdellium and onyx stone are there. 13The name of the second river is Gihon; it is the one that flows around the whole land of Cush. 14#Dan 10.4The name of the third river is Tigris, which flows east of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.
15The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to till it and keep it. 16And the Lord God commanded the man, “You may freely eat of every tree of the garden, 17#Deut 30.15, 19, 20; Rom 6.23; Jas 1.15but 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 die.”

1 Cor 11.9
Then the Lord God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper as his partner.” 19#Gen 1.20, 24; Ps 8.6So out of the ground the Lord God formed every animal of the field and every bird of the air 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. 20The man gave names to all cattle and to the birds of the air and to every animal of the field, but for the man#2.20 Or for Adam there was not found a helper as his partner. 21#1 Sam 26.12So the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then he took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh. 22And the rib that the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man. 23#1 Cor 11.8; Eph 5.30Then the man said,
“This at last is bone of my bones
and flesh of my flesh;
this one shall be called Woman,
for out of Man this one was taken.”

Mt 19.5; Mk 10.7, 8; 1 Cor 6.16; Eph 5.31 Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and clings to his wife, and they become one flesh. 25#Gen 3.7, 10, 11And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed.
