1	GEN 1:1	In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
3	GEN 1:3	God said, “Let there be light!” and there was light.
6	GEN 1:6	God said, “Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters to divide the waters.”
7	GEN 1:7	So God made an expanse to divide the waters that were above from the waters that were below. And that's what happened.
9	GEN 1:9	God said, “Let the waters below the sky collect together in one place so that the land may appear.” And so it was.
14	GEN 1:14	God said, “Let there be lights in the sky to separate day from night, and to provide a way to mark seasons, days, and years.
15	GEN 1:15	They shall be lights in the sky to shine on the earth.” And that's what happened.
18	GEN 1:18	to be in charge of the day and in charge of the night, and to separate light from darkness. God saw that it was good.
20	GEN 1:20	God said, “Let the waters be full of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the sky.”
21	GEN 1:21	So God created huge sea creatures and all the living things that swim and fill the waters, each one according to its own kind; and every bird that flies, each one according to its own kind. God saw that it was good.
22	GEN 1:22	God blessed them and said, “Reproduce and increase, and fill the waters of the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.”
26	GEN 1:26	God said, “Let us make human beings in our image who are like us. They will have authority over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, and over the whole of the earth and every creature that moves on it.”
27	GEN 1:27	So God created human beings in his own image. He created them in the image of God. He created them male and female.
28	GEN 1:28	God blessed them and told them, “Reproduce, increase, and spread throughout the earth and control it; exercise authority over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every creature that moves on the earth.”
29	GEN 1:29	God said, “Look, I'm giving you as your food every seed-bearing plant anywhere on earth, and every tree that produces fruit with seeds.
30	GEN 1:30	I'm giving all the green plants to all the land animals, to the birds, and to every creature that moves on the earth—to every living thing.” And that's what happened.
33	GEN 2:2	By the time the seventh day came, God had finished the work he'd done, and he rested on the seventh day from all the work he'd been doing.
34	GEN 2:3	God blessed the seventh day, and set it apart as holy, because he rested from all the work he'd done in creation.
36	GEN 2:5	Up to this point there were no wild plants or crops growing on the earth, because the Lord God hadn't sent rain, and there was no one to cultivate the ground.
38	GEN 2:7	The Lord God shaped the man Adam from the dust of the ground. He breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and Adam became a living being.
40	GEN 2:9	The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow in the garden, beautiful trees and trees producing fruit that's good to eat. The tree of life was in the middle of the garden, along with the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
41	GEN 2:10	A river flowed out from Eden to water the garden. From there it split into four branches.
42	GEN 2:11	The first branch was called the Pishon and it flowed through the whole land of Havilah, where gold is found.
44	GEN 2:13	The second branch was called the Gihon and it flowed through the whole land of Cush.
45	GEN 2:14	The third branch was called the Tigris and it flowed east of the city of Asshur. The fourth branch was called the Euphrates.
48	GEN 2:17	but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, because the day you eat from it you are certain to die.”
49	GEN 2:18	Then the Lord God said, “It's not good for Adam to be alone. I will make someone to help him, someone that's like him.”
50	GEN 2:19	The Lord God used the ground to make all the wild animals, and all the birds. He took them all to Adam to see what he would call them, and Adam named every living creature.
51	GEN 2:20	Adam gave names to all the livestock, all the birds, and all the wild animals. But Adam didn't find anyone like him who could help him.
52	GEN 2:21	So the Lord God put Adam into a deep sleep and as he slept the Lord God removed one of Adam's ribs and closed up the place where he took it with body tissue.
53	GEN 2:22	The Lord God made a woman, using the rib he'd taken from Adam, and presented her to Adam.
54	GEN 2:23	“Finally!” said Adam. “Here is bone from my bone and flesh from my flesh. She shall be called woman, because she was taken out of man.”
55	GEN 2:24	This is the reason a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two become one being.
56	GEN 2:25	Adam and his wife Eve were both naked, but they weren't embarrassed about it.
58	GEN 3:2	Eve replied to the serpent, “We can eat from the trees in the garden, but not the fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden.
61	GEN 3:5	“It's because God knows that as soon as you eat it, you'll see things differently, and you'll be like God, knowing both what is good and what is evil.”
62	GEN 3:6	Eve saw that the fruit of the tree appeared good to eat. It looked very attractive. She really wanted it so she could become wise. So she took some of its fruit and ate it, and she gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it too.
64	GEN 3:8	Later they heard the Lord walking in the garden in the evening when the breeze was blowing. Adam and Eve went and hid out of sight of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
66	GEN 3:10	“I heard you walking in the garden and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid,” he replied.
70	GEN 3:14	Then the Lord God told the serpent, “Because of what you've done, you are cursed more than any of the other animals. You will slide along on your belly and eat dust as long as you live.
72	GEN 3:16	He told Eve, “I will make pregnancy much more difficult, and giving birth will be very painful. However, you will still desire your husband, but he will have control over you.”
73	GEN 3:17	He told Adam, “Because you did what your wife told you, and ate fruit from the tree after I ordered you, ‘Don't eat fruit from this tree,’ the ground is now cursed because of you. You will have to work painfully hard to grow food from it throughout your whole life.
76	GEN 3:20	Adam named his wife Eve, because she was to be the mother of all human beings.
78	GEN 3:22	Then the Lord God observed, “Look, the human beings have become like one of us, knowing both what is good and what is evil. Now if they take the fruit from the tree of life and eat it, then they'll live forever!”
79	GEN 3:23	So the Lord God expelled them from the Garden of Eden. He sent Adam to cultivate the ground from which he'd been made.
81	GEN 4:1	Adam slept with his wife Eve and she became pregnant. She gave birth to Cain, and said, “With the Lord's help I have made a man.”
82	GEN 4:2	Later she gave birth to his brother Abel. Abel became a shepherd, while Cain was a crop farmer.
83	GEN 4:3	Sometime later Cain brought some of the produce he'd grown as an offering to the Lord.
84	GEN 4:4	Abel also brought an offering: the firstborn lambs of his flock, selecting the very best parts to offer. The Lord was pleased with Abel and his offering,
85	GEN 4:5	but he wasn't pleased with Cain and his offering, which made Cain very angry and he frowned in annoyance.
87	GEN 4:7	If you were doing what's right, then you'd be looking happy. But if you don't do what's right, then sin will be like animal crouching outside your home, ready to pounce on you. It wants to have you, but you must be the one in control.”
88	GEN 4:8	Later, when Cain was talking with his brother Abel they went out into the fields where Cain attacked his brother and killed him.
89	GEN 4:9	“Where is your brother Abel?” the Lord asked Cain. “How should I know?” he replied. “Am I supposed to be my brother's care-giver?”
90	GEN 4:10	“What have you done?” the Lord asked. “Your brother's blood is crying out to me from the ground.
91	GEN 4:11	Consequently you are more cursed than the ground because you soaked it with your brother's blood.
