New Testament

Genesis 2:15-18 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

15. Thus, the Lord God brought the man, and put him into the Paradise of enjoyment, so that it would be attended and preserved by him.

16. And he instructed him, saying: "From every tree of Paradise, you shall eat.

17. But from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall not eat. For in whatever day you will eat from it, you will die a death."

18. The Lord God also said: "It is not good for the man to be alone. Let us make a helper for him similar to himself."
