Genesis 2:5-9

English Standard Version

⁵ When no ^(A)bush of the field^[a] was yet in the land^[b] and no small plant of the field had yet sprung up—for the Lord God had not caused it to rain on the land, and there was no man ^(B)to work the ground, ⁶ and a mist^[c] was going up from the land and was watering the whole face of the ground— ⁷ then the Lord God formed the man of ^(C)dust from the ground and ^(D)breathed into his ^(E)nostrils the breath of life, and ^(F)the man became a living creature. ⁸ And the Lord God planted a ^(G)garden in Eden, in the east, and there he put the man whom he had formed. ⁹ And out of the ground the Lord God made to spring up every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. ^(H)The tree of life was in the midst of the garden, ^(I)and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
