Genesis 2:16

14 The name of the third river is ^aHiddekel; it is the one which goes toward the east of² Assyria. The fourth river is the Euphrates.

15 Then the Lord God took¹ the man and put him in the garden of Eden to² tend and keep it.

16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat;

17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil ^ayou shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it ^byou shall surely ^cdie.”

18 And the Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone; ^aI will make him a helper comparable to him.”
