2 | GEN 1:2 | The earth was without form and empty. Darkness was upon the surface of the deep. The Spirit of God was moving above the surface of the waters. |
6 | GEN 1:6 | God said, “Let there be an expanse between the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.” |
7 | GEN 1:7 | God made the expanse and divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse. It was so. |
8 | GEN 1:8 | God called the expanse “sky.” This was evening and morning, the second day. |
9 | GEN 1:9 | God said, “Let the waters under the sky be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear.” It was so. |
11 | GEN 1:11 | God said, “Let the earth sprout vegetation: plants yielding seed and fruit trees bearing fruit whose seed is in the fruit, each according to its own kind.” It was so. |
12 | GEN 1:12 | The earth produced vegetation, plants producing seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit whose seed was in it, after their kind. God saw that it was good. |
15 | GEN 1:15 | Let them be lights in the sky to give light upon the earth.” It was so. |
17 | GEN 1:17 | God set them in the sky to give light upon the earth, |
20 | GEN 1:20 | God said, “Let the waters be filled with great numbers of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the expanse of the sky.” |
22 | GEN 1:22 | God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas. Let birds multiply on the earth.” |
24 | GEN 1:24 | God said, “Let the earth produce living creatures, each according to its own kind, livestock, creeping things, and beasts of the earth, each according to its own kind.” It was so. |
25 | GEN 1:25 | God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, the livestock after their kinds, and everything that creeps upon the ground after its kind. He saw that it was good. |
26 | GEN 1:26 | God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. Let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the sky, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.” |
28 | GEN 1:28 | God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful, and multiply. Fill the earth, and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the sky, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.” |
29 | GEN 1:29 | God said, “See, I have given you every plant yielding seed which is upon the surface of all the earth, and every tree with fruit which has seed in it. They will be food to you. |
30 | GEN 1:30 | To every beast of the earth, to every bird of the heavens, and to everything that creeps upon the earth, and to every creature that has the breath of life I have given every green plant for food.” It was so. |
36 | GEN 2:5 | No bush of the field was yet in the earth, and no plant of the field had yet sprouted, for Yahweh God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was no man to cultivate the ground. |
37 | GEN 2:6 | But a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground. |
39 | GEN 2:8 | Yahweh God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed. |
40 | GEN 2:9 | Out of the ground Yahweh God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. This included the tree of life that was in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. |
45 | GEN 2:14 | The name of the third river is Tigris, which flows east of Ashur. The fourth river is the Euphrates. |
46 | GEN 2:15 | Yahweh God took the man and put him into the garden of Eden to work it and to maintain it. |
49 | GEN 2:18 | Then Yahweh God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone. I will make him a helper suitable for him.” |
51 | GEN 2:20 | The man gave names to all the livestock, to all the birds of the sky, and to every beast of the field. But for the man himself there was found no helper suitable for him. |
52 | GEN 2:21 | Yahweh God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, so the man slept. Yahweh God took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh where he took the rib. |
57 | GEN 3:1 | Now the serpent was more shrewd than any other beast of the field which Yahweh God had made. He said to the woman, “Has God really said, 'You must not eat from any tree of the garden'?” |
58 | GEN 3:2 | The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit from the trees of the garden, |
60 | GEN 3:4 | The serpent said to the woman, “You will surely not die. |
61 | GEN 3:5 | For God knows that the day you eat it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” |
63 | GEN 3:7 | The eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked. They sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves. |
64 | GEN 3:8 | They heard the sound of Yahweh God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, so the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Yahweh God among the trees of the garden. |
69 | GEN 3:13 | Yahweh God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent lied to me, and I ate.” |
70 | GEN 3:14 | Yahweh God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, cursed are you alone among all the livestock and all the beasts of the field. It is on your stomach that you will go, and it is dust that you will eat all the days of your life. |
71 | GEN 3:15 | I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel.” |
72 | GEN 3:16 | To the woman he said, “I will greatly multiply your pain in having children; it is in pain that you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, but he will rule over you.” |
73 | GEN 3:17 | To Adam he said, “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree, concerning which I commanded you, saying, 'You may not eat from it,' cursed is the ground because of you; through painful work you will eat from it all the days of your life. |
74 | GEN 3:18 | It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. |
80 | GEN 3:24 | So God drove the man out of the garden, and he placed cherubim at the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword that turned every way, in order to guard the way to the tree of life. |
81 | GEN 4:1 | The man slept with Eve his wife. She conceived and gave birth to Cain. She said, “I have produced a man with Yahweh's help.” |
82 | GEN 4:2 | Then she gave birth to his brother Abel. Now Abel became a shepherd, but Cain cultivated the soil. |
84 | GEN 4:4 | As for Abel, he brought some of the firstborn of his flock and some of the fat. Yahweh accepted Abel and his offering, |
85 | GEN 4:5 | but Cain and his offering he did not accept. So Cain was very angry, and he scowled. |
87 | GEN 4:7 | If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin crouches at the door and desires to control you, but you must rule over it.” |
88 | GEN 4:8 | Cain spoke to Abel his brother. It came about that while they were in the fields, Cain rose up against Abel his brother and killed him. |
89 | GEN 4:9 | Then Yahweh said to Cain, “Where is Abel your brother?” He said, “I do not know. Am I my brother's keeper?” |
91 | GEN 4:11 | Now cursed are you from the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand. |
93 | GEN 4:13 | Cain said to Yahweh, “My punishment is greater than I can bear. |
95 | GEN 4:15 | Yahweh said to him, “If anyone kills Cain, vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold.” Then Yahweh put a mark on Cain, so that if anyone found him, that person would not attack him. |
96 | GEN 4:16 | So Cain went out from the presence of Yahweh and lived in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. |
97 | GEN 4:17 | Cain slept with his wife and she conceived. She gave birth to Enoch. He built a city and named it after his son Enoch. |
101 | GEN 4:21 | His brother's name was Jubal. He was the father of those who play the harp and pipe. |
105 | GEN 4:25 | Adam slept with his wife again, and she bore another son. She called his name Seth and said, “God has given me another son in the place of Abel, for Cain killed him.” |
106 | GEN 4:26 | A son was born to Seth and he called his name Enosh. At that time people began to call on the name of Yahweh. |
135 | GEN 5:29 | He called his name Noah, saying, “This one will give us rest from our work and from the painful labor of our hands, which we must do because of the ground that Yahweh has cursed.” |
138 | GEN 5:32 | After Noah had lived five hundred years, he became the father of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. |
139 | GEN 6:1 | It came about when mankind began to multiply on the earth and daughters were born to them, |
141 | GEN 6:3 | Yahweh said, “My spirit will not remain in mankind forever, for they are flesh. They will live 120 years.” |
142 | GEN 6:4 | Giants were on the earth in those days, and also afterward. This happened when the sons of God married daughters of men, and they had children with them. These were the mighty men of old, men of renown. |
145 | GEN 6:7 | So Yahweh said, “I will wipe away mankind whom I have created from the surface of the earth; both mankind and the larger animals, and creeping things and birds of the heavens, for I am sorry that I have made them.” |
147 | GEN 6:9 | These were the events concerning Noah. Noah was a righteous man, and blameless among the people of his time. Noah walked with God. |
148 | GEN 6:10 | Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. |
149 | GEN 6:11 | The earth was corrupt before God, and it was filled with violence. |
150 | GEN 6:12 | God saw the earth; behold, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted their way upon the earth. |
151 | GEN 6:13 | God said to Noah, “I can see that it is time to put an end to all flesh, for the earth is filled with violence through them. Indeed, I will destroy them with the earth. |
152 | GEN 6:14 | Make for yourself an ark of cypress wood. Make rooms in the ark, and cover it with pitch within and without. |
