2Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all their multitude.H8064H776H3615H66352And on the seventh day God finished the work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all the work that he had done.H7637H3117H430H3615H4399H6213H7673H7637H3117H4399H62133So God blessed the seventh day and hallowed it, because on it God rested from all the work that he had done in creation.H430H1288H7637H3117H6942H3588H7673H4399H430H1254H6213

4These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were created. In the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,H428H8435H8064H776H1254H3117H3068H430H6213H776H80645when no plant of the field was yet in the earth and no herb of the field had yet sprung up—for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was no one to till the ground;H7880H7704H2962H776H6212H7704H2962H6779H3588H3068H430H3808H4305H776H369H120H5647H1276but a stream would rise from the earth, and water the whole face of the ground—H5927H108H4480H776H8248H6440H1277then the LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being.H3068H430H3335H120H6083H4480H127H5301H639H5397H2416H120H2416H53158And the LORD God planted a garden in Eden, in the east; and there he put the man whom he had formed.H3068H430H5193H1588H6924H5731H8033H7760H120H834H33359Out of the ground the LORD God made 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 the knowledge of good and evil.H4480H127H6779H3068H430H6779H6086H2530H4758H2896H3978H6086H2416H8432H1588H6086H1847H2896H745110A river flows out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it divides and becomes four branches.H5104H3318H5731H8248H1588H6504H702H721811The name of the first is Pishon; it is the one that flows around the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;H8034H259H6376H1931H5437H776H2341H834H209112and the gold of that land is good; bdellium and onyx stone are there.H2091H1931H776H2896H916H7718H6813The name of the second river is Gihon; it is the one that flows around the whole land of Cush.H8034H8145H5104H1521H5437H776H356814The name of the third river is Tigris, which flows east of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.H8034H7992H5104H2313H1980H6926H804H7243H5104H657815The LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to till it and keep it.H3068H430H3947H120H3240H1588H5731H5647H810416And the LORD God commanded the man, "You may freely eat of every tree of the garden;H3068H430H6680H120H559H6086H1588H398H39817but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall die."H6086H1847H2896H7451H398H3117H398H4191H419118Then the LORD God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper as his partner."H3068H430H559H2896H120H1961H6213H582819So out of the ground the LORD God formed every animal of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called every living creature, that was its name.H127H3068H430H3335H2416H7704H5775H8064H935H120H7200H7121H120H7121H2416H5315H1931H803420The man gave names to all cattle, and to the birds of the air, and to every animal of the field; but for the man there was not found a helper as his partner.H120H7121H8034H929H5775H8064H2416H7704H120H4672H582821So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then he took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh.H3068H430H5307H8639H5307H121H3462H3947H259H6763H5462H132022And the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man.H6763H3068H430H3947H120H1129H802H935H12023Then the man said, "This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; this one shall be called Woman, for out of Man this one was taken."H120H559H2063H6471H6106H6106H1320H1320H2063H7121H802H2063H3947H37624Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and clings to his wife, and they become one flesh.H3651H376H5800H1H517H1692H802H259H132025And the man and his wife were both naked, and were not ashamed.H8147H6174H120H802H954
Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
