Genesis 2:17-19

New International Reader's Version

¹⁷ But you must not eat the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. If you do, you will certainly die.”

¹⁸ The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper who is just right for him.”

¹⁹ The Lord God had formed all the wild animals and all the birds in the sky. He had made all of them out of the ground. He brought them to the man to see what names he would give them. And the name the man gave each living creature became its name.
