Genesis 2:4-6

GOD’S WORD Translation

The Creation of Man and Woman

⁴ This is the account of heaven and earth when they were created, at the time when the Lord God made earth and heaven.

⁵ Wild bushes and plants were not on the earth yet because the Lord God hadn’t sent rain on the earth. Also, there was no one to farm the land. ⁶ Instead, underground water would come up from the earth and water the entire surface of the ground.
