*In the beginning when God created the universe, the earth was formless and desolate. The raging ocean that covered everything was engulfed in total darkness, and the power of God was moving over the water. Then God commanded , " Let there be light " - and light appeared. God was pleased with what he saw . Then he separated the light from the darkness, and named the light "Day" and the darkness " Night" Evening passed and morning came - that was the first day.

Then God commanded, "Let there be a dome to divide the water and to keep it in two separate places" - and it was done. So God made a dome, and it separated the water under it from the water above it. He named the dome "Sky". Evening passed and morning came- that was the second day.

Then God commanded, "Let the water below the sky come together in one place, so that the land will appear"- and it was done. He named the land "Earth," and the water which had come together he named"Sea." And God pleased with what he see. Then he commanded,"Let the earth produce all kind of plants, those that bear gain and those that bear fruit"- and it was done. So the earth produced all kind of plants, and God was pleased with what he see. Evening passed and morning came- that was third day.

Then God commanded,"Let lights appear in the sky to separate day from night and show the time when days years , and religious festivals begin; they shine in the sky to give light to the earth "- and it was done. So God made two larger lights, the sun to rule over the day and moon to rule over the night; he also made the stars. He placed the lights in the sky to shine on the earth , to rule over the day and night, and to separate light from darkness. And God pleased with what he see. Evening passed and morning came - that was the fourth day.

Then God commanded,"Let the water be filled with many kinds of living beings, and let the air be filled with birds." So God created the great sea - monsters, all kinds of birds. And God was pleased with what he see. He blessed them all and told the creatures that live in the water to reproduce, and fill the sea, and told the birds to increase in number. Evening passed and morning came- that was the fifth day.

Then God commanded, "Let the earth produce all kind of animals life: domestic and wild , large and small"- and it was done . So God made them all he was pleased with what he see. Then God said, " And now we will make human beings; they will be like us and resemble us. They will have power over the fish, the birds, and all animals, domestic and wild , large and small ." So God created human beings making them to be like himself. He created them male and female, blessed them , and said " Have many children, so that your descendants will live on over the earth and bring it under their control. I am putting you in charge of the fish, the birds, and all the wild animals . I have provided all kinds of fruit for you to eat; but for all the birds I have provided grass and leafy plants for food" - and it was done . God looked at everything he had made , he was very pleased. Evening passed and morning came- that was the sixth day.

And so the whole universe was completed. By the seventh day God finished what he had been doing and stopped working. He blessed the seventh day and set it apart as a special day , because by that day he had completed his creation and stopped working. And that is how the universe was created*.

My today work is about how the human made by the God

And also how the evil 😈 spread all over the world 🌍.

*When the God made the universe, there were no plants on the earth and no seeds and sprouted, because he had not sent any rain, and there was no one to cultivate the land ; but water would come up from beneath the surface and water 💦 the ground.

Then the God took some soil from the ground and formed a man out of it; he breathed life-giving breath into his nostrils and the man begin to live.

Then the God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and there he put the man he had formed. He made all kinds of beautiful trees 🌴 grow 🪴 there and produce good fruit 🍑 . In the middle of garden stood the tree that give life and tree that gives knowledge of what is good and what is bad.

A stream flowed in Eden and watered the garden ; beyond Eden it divided into four rivers . The first river is the Pishon; it flows round the country. Where pure gold 🪙 is found and also rare purfume and precious stones. The second river is the Gihon; it flows round the country of Cush . The third river is the tigris, which flows east of Assyria, and the fourth river is the Euphrates.

Then the God placed the man in the garden of Eden to cultivate it and guard it . He said to him, "You may eat the fruit of any trees in the garden, except the tree that give knowledge or what is good and what is bad. You must not eat the fruit of that tree; if you do, you will die the same day ".

Then the God said , "It is not good for the man to live alone. I will make a suitable companion to help him." So he took some soil from ground and formed all animals and all birds. Then he brought them to the man to see what he would name them ; and that is how they all got their names . So the man named all the birds and all the animals; but not one of them was a suitable companion to help .

Then the God made man fall into a deep sleep, and while he was sleeping, he took out one of the man,s ribs and closed up the flesh. He formed a woman out of the rib and brought her to him. Then the man said,

"At last , here is one of my own kind - bone taken form my bone, and flesh from my flesh.

'Women ' is her name because she was taken out of man."

How wonderful it would be to become wise

That is why a man leaves his father and mother and United with his wife, and they become one.

The man and the woman were both ***** , but they were not embarrassed*.

...The Disobedience of man...

*Now the snake was the most cunning animal that God had made. The snake asked the woman, "Did God really tell you not to eat fruits from any tree in the garden?"

"We may eat the fruit of any tree in the garden," the woman answered, "except the tree in the middle of it. God told us not to eat the fruit of that tree or even touch it; if we do , we will die."

The snake replied, "That's not true ; you will not die . God said that , because he knows that when you eat it you will be like God and know what is good and what is bad. The woman saw how beautiful the tree was and how good it's fruit 🍑 would to eat , and she through how wonderful it would be to become wise. So she took some of the fruit and ate it . Then she gave some to her husband, and he also ate it .As soon as they had eaten it, they were given understanding and realise that they were *****; So they sewed fig leaves 🌿 together and covered themselves. That evening they heard the God walking in the garden, and they hid from him among the trees. But the God called out to the man, "Where are you?" He answered, "I heard you in the garden; I was afraid and hid from you because I was *****."

Who told you that you were *****?" God asked. " Did you eat the fruit that I told you not to eat?"

The man answered, "The woman you put here with me gave me the fruit, and I ate it ."

The God asked the woman,

"Why did you do this?"

She replied," The snake tricked me into eating it*."

...God pronounces Judgement...

*Then the God said to the snake, "You will be punished for this; you alone of all the animals must bear this curse: From now on you will crawl on your belly, and you will eat dust as long as you live. I will make you and the woman hate each other; her offspring and yours will always be enemies. Her offspring will crush your head , and you will bite their heel."

And he said to the woman, "I will increase your trouble in pregnancy and your pain in giving birth. In spite of this, you will still have desire for your husband, yet you will be subject to him.

And he said to the man, " You listened to your wife and ate the fruit which I told you not to eat. Because of what you have done, the ground will be under the cruse. You will work hard all your life make it produce enough food for you. It will produce weeds and thorns, and you will have to eat wild plants. You will have to work hard and sweat ro make the soil produce anything until you go back to the soil from which you were formed. You were made from soil , and you will become soil again.

The man name was Adam and he named his wife Eve because she was the mother of all human beings. And the God made clothes out of animal skins for Adam and his wife Eve and he clothes them.

Then the God said,"Now the man become like one of us and has knowledge of what good and what is bad . He must not be allowed to take fruit from the tree that gives life, eat it, and live for ever." So the God sent him out of the garden of Eden and made cultivate the soil from which he had been formed . Then at the eat side of the garden he put living creatures and a flaming sword which turned in all directions. This was keep anyone from coming near the tree that gives life*

*Then Adam had intercourse with his wife, and she became pregnant. She bore a son and said , "By the lord's help I have acquired a son." So she named him Cain. Later she gave birth to another son, Abel. Abel become a shepherd, but Cain was a farmer. After some time, Cain brought some of his harvest and gave it as an offering to the God . Then Abel brought the first lamb bron to one of his sheep, killed it , and grave the best part of it as an offering. The God was pleased with Abel and his offering. Cain become furious, and he scowled in anger. Then God said to Cain , "Why are you angry? Why that scowl on your face? If you had done the right thing, you would be smiling; but because you have done evil, sin it's crouching at your door. It wants to rule you, but you must overcome it."

Then Cain said to his brother Abel , "Let's go out in the fields, Cain turned on his brother and killed him.

Then God asked Cain, "Where is your brother Abel ?"

He answered ,"I don't know. Am I supposed to take care of my brother?"

Then the God said ,"Why have you done this terrible thing ? Your brothers blood is crying out to me from the ground , like a voice calling for revenge. You are placed under a curse and can no longer farm the soil. It has soaked up your brother,s blood as if it had opened its mouth to receive it when you killed him. If you try to grow crops , the soil will not produce anything; you will be a homeless wanderer on the earth."

And Cain said to the lord, "This punishment is too hard for me to bear. You are diving me off the land and away from presence. I will be a homeless wanderer on the earth, and anyone who finds me will kill me."

But the God answered, "No . If anyone kills you, seven lives will be taken in revenge." So lord put a mark on Cain to warm anyone who met him not to kill him. And Cain went away from the God,s presence and lived in a land called"Wandering," which is east of Eden*.

...The descendants of Cain ...

*Cain and his wife had a son and named him Enoch. Then Cain built a city and named it after his son . Enoch had a son named Irad, who was the father of mehujael , and mehujael had a son named methushael , who was the father of Lamech. Lamech had two wives, Adah and Zillah. Adah gave birth to Jabal, who ancestor those who raise livestock and live in tents. His brother was Jubal , the ancestor of all musicians who play the harp and the flute. Zillah gave birth to Tubal Cain , who made all kind of tools out of bronze and iron. The sister of tubal Cain was Naamah.

Lamech said to his wives,

"Adah and Zillah, listen to me : I have killed a young man because he struck me.

If seven lives are taken to pray for killing Cain,

Seventy -seven will be taken if anyone kills me*
