Genesis 2:11-18 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

11. The name of the first is Pishon; it flows around the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.

12. The gold of that land is good; the bdellium and the onyx stone are there.

13. The name of the second river is Gihon; it flows around the whole land of Cush.

14. The name of the third river is Tigris; it flows east of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.

15. Then the Lord God took the man and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate it and keep it.

16. The Lord God commanded the man, saying, "From any tree of the garden you may eat freely;

17. but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat from it you will surely die."

18. Then the Lord God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him."
