⁹ The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees^(A) that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life^(B) and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.^(C)

¹⁶ And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden;^{(A) 17} but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,^(B) for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”^(C)

²⁴ After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side^[a] of the Garden of Eden^(A) cherubim^(B) and a flaming sword^(C) flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.^(D)
