whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man is his blood shed: for in the image of God hath He made man.

And Jehovah saith, 'I wipe away man whom I have prepared from off the face of the ground, from man unto beast, unto creeping thing, and unto fowl of the heavens, for I have repented that I have made them.'

And the man, wondering at her, remaineth silent, to know whether Jehovah hath made his way prosperous or not.

This is an account of the births of Adam: In the day of God's preparing man, in the likeness of God He hath made him;

and Jehovah repenteth that He hath made man in the earth, and He grieveth Himself -- unto His heart.
