Genesis 2:16-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁶ And he commanded him, saying: Of every tree of paradise thou shalt eat:

¹⁷ But of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat. For in what day soever thou shalt eat of it, thou shalt die the death.

¹⁸ And the Lord God said: It is not good for man to be alone: let us make him a help like unto himself.
