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.”
19 aOut of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and bbrought them to Adam to see what he would call them. And whatever Adam called each living creature, that was its name.
