Genesis 2:5-9

New American Standard Bible

^5 (A)Now no shrub of the field was yet on the earth, and no plant of the field had yet sprouted, ^(B)for the Lord God had not sent rain upon the earth, and there was no man to ^[a]cultivate the ground. ⁶ But a ^[b]mist used to rise from the earth and water the whole ^[c]surface of the ground. ⁷ Then the Lord God formed the man of ^(C)dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the ^(D)man became a living ^[d]person. ⁸ The Lord God planted a ^(E)garden toward the east, in Eden; and there He placed the man whom He had formed. ⁹ Out of the ground the Lord God caused ^(F)every tree to grow that is pleasing to the sight and good for food; ^(G)the tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
