Genesis 2:4-6

New International Reader's Version

Adam and Eve

⁴ Here is the story of the heavens and the earth when they were created. The Lord God made the earth and the heavens.

⁵ At that time, bushes had not yet appeared on the earth. Plants had not started to grow. The Lord God had not sent rain on the earth. And there was no one to farm the land. ⁶ But streams came from the earth. They watered the entire surface of the ground.
