And God created man after his licknesse: after ye licknesse of God created he him, male & female created he them.

And God blessed them, and sayde vnto them: Growe, and multiplie, and fyll the earth, and subdue it, & haue domynion ouer the fish of the see, and ouer the foules of the ayre, and ouer all the beastes that crepe vpo the earth.

And God sayde: lo, I haue geuen you all maner herbes that beare sede vpon the whole earth, and all maner frutefull trees that beare sede, to be meate for you.

And God behelde all yt he had made, and lo, they were exceadinge good. Then of the euenynge and mornynge was made the sixte daye.

and thus in the seuenth daye God ended his worke, which he had made, & rested in the seuenth daye from all his workes which he had made:

And blessed the seuenth daye, & sanctified it, because yt in it he rested from all his workes, which God created and made.

These are the generacions of heaue and earth whan they were created, in the tyme whan the LORDE God made heauen and earth:

before there was eny twygg vpon earth, and or euer there grew eny grene herbe vpon the felde. For the LORDE God had yet sent no rayne vpon ye earth, nether was there eny man to tylle the earth.

And ye LORDE God shope man eue of the moulde of the earth, & brethed in to his face ye breth of life. And so was man made a lyuynge soule.

The LORDE God also planted a garde of pleasure in Eden, towarde ye east, and set man therin whom he had made.

And the LORDE God caused to sprynge out of the earth all maner trees, pleasaut to loke vpo, and good to eate: and the tre of life in the myddest of the garden, and the tre of knowlege of good and euell.

And the LORDE God toke man, & set him in the pleasaunt garden of Eden, to dresse it & to kepe it.

And the LORDE God commaunded man, sayege: Thou shalt eate of all maner trees in ye garden:

And the LORDE God sayde: It is not good yt ma shulde be alone. I wil make him an helpe, to beare him copany.

And whan God the LORDE had made of the earth all maner beastes of the felde, & all maner foules vnder the heaue, he brought them vnto man, to se what he wolde call the: For as ma called all maner of liuinge soules, so are their names.

Then the LORDE God caused an herde slepe to fall vpon man, and he slepte. And he toke out one of his rybbes, and (in steade therof) he fylled vp ye place with flesh.

And the LORDE God made a woman, of ye rybbe that he toke out of man, and brought her vnto him.

Bvt the serpent was sotyller then all the beastes of the felde (which ye LORDE God had made) and sayde vnto the woman: Yee, hath God sayde indede: Ye shall not eate of all maner trees in the garden?

But as for the frute of the tre that is in the myddes of the garden, God hath sayde: Eate not ye of it, and touch it not, lest ye dye.

For God doth knowe, that in what daye so euer ye eate of it, youre eyes shalbe opened, and ye shalbe as God, and knowe both good and euell.
