1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all their vast array.
Thus was heave and erth fynished wyth all their apparell:
2 And on the sixth day God finished his works which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his works which he had made.
ad i ye seueth daye god ended hys worke which he had made and rested in ye seventh daye fro all his workes which he had made.
3 So God blessed the seventh day, and made it holy, because he rested on it from all his works which God had created and made.
And God blessed ye seventh daye and sanctyfyed it for in it he rested from all his workes which he had created and made.
4 This is the account of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, at the time when God made the earth and the heavens.

5 Now no bush of the field was yet in the land, and no plant of the field had yet sprouted; for God had not caused it to rain on the land, and there were no people to cultivate the ground,
and all the shrubbes of the felde be fore they were in the erthe. And all the herbes of the felde before they sprange: for the LORde God had yet sent no rayne vpon the erth nether was there yet any man to tylle the erth.
6 but springs came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground.
But there arose a myste out of the ground and watered all the face of the erth:
7 And God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.
Then the LORde God shope man even of the moulde of the erth and brethed into his face the breth of lyfe. So man was made a lyvynge soule.
8 And God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed.
The LORde God also planted a garden in Eden from the begynnynge and there he sette man whom he had formed.
9 And out of the ground God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the middle of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
And the LORde God made to sprynge out of the erth all maner trees bewtyfull to the syghte and pleasant to eate and the tree of lyfe in the middes of the garden: and also the tree of knowlege of good and euell.
10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it separated and became the source of four rivers.
And there spronge a rever out of Eden to water the garden and thence devided it selfe and grewe in to foure principall waters.
11 The name of the first is Pishon; this is the one which goes around the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
The name of the one is Phison he it is that compasseth all the lande of heuila where gold groweth.
12 and the gold of that land is good. There is aromatic resin and the onyx stone.
And the gold of that contre ys precious there is found bedellion and a stone called Onix.
13 And the name of the second river is Gihon; it goes around the whole land of Cush.
The name of the seconde ryver is Gihon which compassyth all the lande of Inde.
14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel; this is the one which flows east of Ashur. And the fourth river is the Perath.
And the name of the thyrde river is Hidekell which runneth on the easte syde of the assyryans And the fourth river is Euphrates.
15 And God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate it and take care of it.
And the LORde God toke Adam and put him in the garden of Eden to dresse it and to kepe it:
16 And God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat;
and the LORde God comaunded Ada saynge: of all the trees of the garde se thou eate.
17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, you shall not eat of it; for in the day that you eat of it you will surely die."
But of the tre of knowlege of good and badd se that thou eate not: for even ye same daye thou eatest of it thou shalt surely dye.
18 And God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him."
And the LORde God sayd: it is not good that man shulde be alone I will make hym an helper to beare him company:
19 And out of the ground God formed every tame animal, and every wild animal, and every flying creature of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. And whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name.
And after yt the LORde God had make of the erth all maner beastes of the felde and all maner foules of the ayre he brought them vnto Adam to see what he wold call them. And as Ada called all maner livynge beastes: eve so are their names.
20 And the man gave names to all the tame animals, and to all the flying creatures of the sky, and to every wild animal; but for Adam there was not found a helper suitable for him.
And Adam gave names vnto all maner catell and vnto the foules of the ayre and vnto all maner beastes of the felde. But there was no helpe founde vnto Adam to beare him companye
21 So God caused a deep sleep to fall on the man, and he slept; and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh at that place.
Then the LORde God cast a slomber on Adam and he slepte. And then he toke out one of his rybbes and in stede ther of he fylled vp the place with flesh.
22 And the rib that God had taken from the man he fashioned into a woman and brought her to the man.
And the LORde God made of the rybbe which he toke out of Adam a woma and brought her vnto Adam.
23 And the man said, "This at last is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called Woman, because this one was taken out of Man."
Then sayd Ada this is once bone of my boones and flesh of my flesh. This shall be called woman: because she was take of the man.
24 Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and the two will become one flesh.
For this cause shall a man leve father and mother and cleve vnto his wyfe and they shall be one flesh.
25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
And they were ether of them naked both Adam and hys wyfe ad were not ashamed:
