New Catholic Bible
10 A river flowed out of Eden to water the garden; then it divided into four tributaries. 11 [a]The first river was called the Pishon. It waters the whole land of Havilah where one can find gold, 12 and the gold of that land is good. One can also find bdellium and onyx in that land. 13 The second river is the Gihon. It flows in the land of Ethiopia. 14 The third river is the Tigris. It flows to the east of the land of Asshur. The fourth river is the Euphrates.
