The LORD God planted a garden in Eden, toward the east, where he placed the man whom he had formed.

A river flows from Eden to water the garden, and from there it divides, becoming four branches.

The LORD God took the man and placed him in the Garden of Eden in order to have him work it and guard it.

therefore the LORD God expelled the man from the garden of Eden so he would work the ground from which he had been taken.

After he had expelled the man, the LORD God placed winged angels at the eastern end of the garden of Eden, along with a fiery, turning sword, to prevent access to the tree of life.

After this, Cain left the presence of the LORD and settled in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
