Genesis 2:3-5
EasyEnglish Bible
3 God blessed the seventh day. He made it a special day, because he had finished making everything. He did not work on that day.
God makes a man and a woman
4 This is what happened when God made the heavens and the earth.
When the Lord God made the heavens and the earth, 5 there were no plants or grasses growing on the earth.[a] That was because the Lord God had not sent any rain on the earth. Also, there was nobody to dig the soil so that plants would grow.
