So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

And by the seventh day God had finished the work He had been doing; so on that day He rested from all His work.

Then the LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed the breath of life into his nostrils, and the man became a living being.

For this reason a man will leave his father and his mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.

And the man and his wife were both naked, and they were not ashamed.

Then the man and his wife heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the breeze of the day, and they hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.

And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will crush your head, and you will strike his heel."

And Adam named his wife Eve, because she would become the mother of all the living.

And the LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.

Then the LORD God said, "Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil. And now, lest he reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever..."

And Adam had relations with his wife Eve, and she conceived and gave birth to Cain. "With the help of the LORD I have brought forth a man," she said.

while Abel brought the best portions of the firstborn of his flock. And the LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering,

but He had no regard for Cain and his offering. So Cain became very angry, and his countenance fell.

Then Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let us go out to the field." And while they were in the field, Cain rose up against his brother Abel and killed him.

And Cain had relations with his wife, and she conceived and gave birth to Enoch. Then Cain built a city and named it after his son Enoch.

And his brother's name was Jubal; he was the father of all who play the harp and flute.

Then Lamech said to his wives: "Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; wives of Lamech, listen to my speech. For I have slain a man for wounding me, a young man for striking me.

And Adam again had relations with his wife, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth, saying, "God has granted me another seed in place of Abel, since Cain killed him."

This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, He made him in His own likeness.

When Adam was 130 years old, he had a son in his own likeness, after his own image; and he named him Seth.
