And
God
said,
Let
us
make
man
**
So
God
created
man
in
his
own
image,
***
in
the
image
of
God
 created
he
him;
**********

and
God
divided the light from the darkness.
**
And
God
called the light Day,
***
and
seven nights,
***

and
the darkness

he
called Night.

**
And
God
said,
Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters,
**
And
God
made the firmament,
**
And
the
rib,

which

the Lord God had taken - from man,
made
he
a woman,

and
brought her unto the man.

And Adam
said,
This is now bone of my bones,
*
and
it
was
so.
**
and
divided
the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament:
***
Eve
*
and flesh of my flesh:
she shall be called -Woman,
**
And out
And out of the ground made the Lord God 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 knowledge of good
and
evil.
And a river went out of Eden to water the garden;
and from thence it was parted,
and became into four heads.
**
And
God
said,
Let there be light:
and
there was light.
***
And
God
said,
Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place,
and let the dry land appear:
and
it
was so.
*****
Eve
*
she shall be called Woman,
because she was taken out of Man
**
out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field,
and every fowl of the air;
and
brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them:
and
whatsoever Adam called every living creature,
that was the name thereof.
***
And Adam - called
his wife's
name
Eve;
because she was the mother of all living. . .
*
 . . . And Adam knew
Eve
 his wife;
**
and
the tree of knowledge of good

and
evil.
***
and
she
- conceived, -
and
bare Cain,
and
said,
I have gotten a man
from
the
Lord.

and
the tree of knowledge
of
good

And Adam knew - his wife - again;
and she bare a son,
and called his name Seth:
For
God,
**
and let it divide the waters from the waters.
     **

And God
called the light Day,
and the darkness he called Night.
***
Him
*
And
to
Seth,
**
in the image of God created he him;
**
to him also there was born a son;
**
and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind,
**
and - he called - his name Enos:
*
This is the book
of the
generations*
of
Adam.

In the day
that
God
created
man,
in the likeness of God made
he
him;
Male and female created he them;
**
And
God
said,
Let us make man in our image,
after our likeness:
and let them have 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 Adam - lived an - hundred and thirty years,
and begat a son in - his own likeness,
after - his image;
and called his name Seth:
***
And the mean man shall be brought down,
and the mighty man shall be humbled,
and the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled:
But the Lord of hosts shall be exalted in judgment,
and God
that is holy
shall be sanctified in righteousness.
***
and blessed them,
and called their name Adam,
in the day when they were created.
**
that Cain rose up against Abel - his brother,
and slew him.
*
And the Lord said unto Cain,
Where
is Abel thy brother?
**
And God made the
firmament,
and divided
the waters which were under the firmament - from the waters which were above the firmament:
and
it was
so.
***
And he said,
I know not:
*
And Adam said,
This is now bone of my bones,
*
Am
I my brother's keeper?
***
And Adam gave names to all cattle,
and to the fowl of the air,
and to every beast of the field;
but for Adamthere was not found an help meet for him.
***
And the Lord God said,
It is not good that the man should be alone;
**
to him also there was born a son;
and - he called - his name Enos:
**
And Seth lived an
And Jared lived an
And Methuselah lived an
And Lamech lived an
and Joseph lived an
**
And God saw
that the
wickedness
of man was great in the earth,
and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
***
I have given every green herb for meat:
and it was so.
And
God
saw
every thing - that he had made,
**
Except the Lord of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant,
we should have been as Sodom,
and we should have been like unto Gomorrah.
***
and,
behold,
it was very good.
**
And
the Lord
said,
My spirit shall not always strive with man,
for - that he also is flesh:
**
that Cain
rose up against Abel his brother,
***
And it repented the Lord
that he
had made man – on - the earth,
**
So God
created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him;
*
and
it
was so.
***

and it grieved him at his heart.
**
And he said,
I know not:
Am I my
brother's keeper?
**       
I will destroy man
**

whom Cain
***
- whom I -
have created - from - the face of the earth;
both man,
and beast,
and the creeping thing,
and the fowls of the air;
**
for it repenteth me
 that I
have made them.
**

**
Noah was a just man - and perfect - in his generations,
and Noah walked with God
***
But Noah found grace in the - eyes - of the Lord.
***
the man is become - as one of us,
to know good and evil:
and now,
lest he put forth his hand,
and take also of the tree of life,
and eat,
and live for ever:
*
Therefore the Lord God sent - him - forth - from the garden of Eden,
to till the ground –
from whence
he was taken.
**
And Cush begat Nimrod:
he began to be a mighty one in the earth.
***
And God called the light
Day,
**
but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
***
Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord,
and Satan came also among them.
**
And the Lord said unto Satan, Whence comest thou?
and said,
From going to and fro in the earth,
and from walking up and down in it.
    And the Lord said unto Satan,
Hast thou considered my servant Job,
that there is none like him in the earth,
a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God,
and escheweth evil?
    Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?
    Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.
**
How is the faithful city become an harlot! it was full of judgment; righteousness lodged in it; but now murderers.
      Thy silver is become dross, thy wine mixed with water:
      Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards: they judge not the fatherless, neither doth the cause of the widow come unto them.
      Therefore saith the Lord, the Lord of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies:
      And I will turn my hand upon thee, and purely purge away thy dross, and take away all thy tin:
      And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning: afterward thou shalt be called, The city of righteousness, the faithful city.
      Zion shall be redeemed with judgment, and her converts with righteousness.
      And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the Lord shall be consumed.
***
But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath,
**
And he said,
Cursed be Canaan;
*
And he said,
Blessed be the Lord God of Shem;
**
Therefore shall a man leave
his
father
and
his mother,
and
shall cleave unto
his wife:
***
Now the Lord
had said
unto
Abram,
Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred,
and from thy father's house,
unto a land that I will shew thee:
And I will make of thee a great nation,
and
I
will bless thee,
and make thy name great;
and
thou
shalt be a blessing:
And I will bless them that bless thee,
and curse him that curseth thee:
and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
**
and they shall be
one
flesh.

***
. . . and he will curse thee to >>  thy face.
**
And the earth brought forth grass,
and herb yielding seed after his kind,
and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself,
after his kind:
and
God
saw
that it was good.
And the evening and the morning – were - the third day.
***
And
the Lord
said
unto Satan,
Behold,
all that he hath
is
in
thy power;
**
And Shem  
and Japheth
took a garment,
and laid it upon both their shoulders,
and went backward,
and covered the nakedness of their father;
and their faces were backward,
and they saw not their father's nakedness.
**
And God said,
Let us make man in our image,
***

Unto Shem also,
the father - of all - the children of Eber,
the brother of Japheth the elder,
even to him were children born.
***
only uponhimself - put not forth - thine hand.
**
And
God
said,
Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide
the day
from
the night;
**
. . .And unto Eber were born
two sons:
the name of one was Peleg;
for in his days
was
the earth
divided;
and - his brother's name was Joktan.
And Joktan begat Almodad,
and Sheleph, . .
***
So Satan - went forth - from the presence of the Lord.
And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating - and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house:
**
Hearken to me,
ye that follow after righteousness,
 ye that seek the Lord:
look unto the rock whence ye are hewn,
and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged.
Look unto Abraham your father,
and unto Sarah that bare you:
for I called him alone,
and blessed him,
and increased him.
For the Lord shall comfort Zion:
he will comfort all her waste places;
and he will make her wilderness like Eden,
and her desert like the garden of the Lord;
joy - and gladness shall be found therein,
thanksgiving,
and the voice of melody.
***
Therefore the Lord God sent - him - forth - from the garden of Eden,
to till the ground –
from whence
he 
was taken.
