Genesis 1:28-2:3
New King James Version
28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, (A)“Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and (B)subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that [a]moves on the earth.”
29 And God said, “See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; (C)to you it shall be for food. 30 Also, to (D)every beast of the earth, to every (E)bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is [b]life, I have given every green herb for food”; and it was so. 31 Then (F)God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
The Garden of Eden
2 Thus the heavens and the earth, and (G)all the host of them, were finished. 2 (H)And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. 3 Then God (I)blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made.

Genesis 1:28-2:3
Young's Literal Translation
28 And God blesseth them, and God saith to them, `Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over fish of the sea, and over fowl of the heavens, and over every living thing that is creeping upon the earth.'
29 And God saith, `Lo, I have given to you every herb sowing seed, which [is] upon the face of all the earth, and every tree in which [is] the fruit of a tree sowing seed, to you it is for food;
30 and to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the heavens, and to every creeping thing on the earth, in which [is] breath of life, every green herb [is] for food:' and it is so.
31 And God seeth all that He hath done, and lo, very good; and there is an evening, and there is a morning -- day the sixth.
2 And the heavens and the earth are completed, and all their host;
2 and God completeth by the seventh day His work which He hath made, and ceaseth by the seventh day from all His work which He hath made.
3 And God blesseth the seventh day, and sanctifieth it, for in it He hath ceased from all His work which God had prepared for making.
Genesis 1:28-2:3
New American Standard Bible
28 God blessed them; and God said to them, “(A)Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that [a]moves on the earth.” 29 Then God said, “Behold, (B)I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the [b]surface of all the earth, and every tree [c]which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you; 30 and (C)to every animal of the earth and to every bird of the sky and to everything that [d]moves on the earth [e]which has life, I have given every green plant for food”; and it was so. 31 And God saw all that He had made, and behold, it was very (D)good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
2 And so the heavens and the earth were completed, and all (E)their heavenly [f]lights. 2 By (F)the seventh day God completed His work which He had done, and (G)He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because on it He rested from all His work which God had created [g]and made.
