And God said - Let us make man in our image after our likeness - and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the bird of the heavens and over the tame-beast - and over all the land, and over every creeping thing, that creepeth on the land.

And God said - Lo! I have given to you - every herb yielding seed which is on the face of all the land, and every tree wherein is the fruit of a tree yielding seed, - to you, shall it be, for food;

Thus were finished the heavens and the earth and all their host.

Thus God finished, on the seventh day his work which he had made, and rested, on the seventh day, from all his work which he had made.

And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it, - because therein, rested he from all his work which God, by creating, had made.

but, a vapour, went up from the earth, - and watered all the face of the ground.

The name of the one, is Pishon, - the same, is that which surroundeth all the land of Havilah, where is gold;

And the name of the second river, is Gihon, - the same, is that which surroundeth all the land of Cush,

And Yahweh God said, It is, not good, that the man should remain alone, - I will make for him a helper as his counterpart.

So the man gave names to all the tame-beasts, and to the birds of the heavens, and to all the wild-beasts of the field, - but, for man, had there not been found a helper as his counterpart.

For this cause, will a man leave his father and his mother, and cleave unto his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

Then said Yahweh God unto the serpent - Because thou hast done this, Accursed, art thou above every tame-beast, and above every wild-beast of the field, - on thy belly, shall thou go, and dust, shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.

And enmity, will I put between thee, and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed, - He shall crush thy head, but, thou, shalt crush his heel.

Unto the woman, he said, I will, increase, thy pain of pregnancy, In pain, shalt thou year children, - Yet, unto thy husband, shall be thy hinging, Though, he, rule over thee.

And, to the man, he said, Because thou didst hearken to the voice of thy wife, and so didst eat of the tree as to which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it, Accursed be the ground for thy sake, In pain, shalt thou eat of it, all the days of thy life;

Lo! thou has driven me out, this day, from off the face of the ground And from thy face, shall I be hid, So shall I become a wanderer and a fugitive in the earth. And it shall come to pass, whosoever findeth me, will slay me.

So all the days of Adam which he lived, were nine hundred and thirty years, - and he died.

and all the days of Seth were, nine hundred an I twelve years, - and he died.

and all the days of Enosh were nine hundred and five years, - and he died.

and all the days of Kenan were, nine hundred and ten years, - and he died.

and all the days of Mahalalel were, eight hundred and ninety-five years, - and he died.

and all the days of Jared were, nine hundred and sixty-two years, - and he died.

and all the days of Enoch were, three hundred and sixty-five years;

and all the days of Methuselah were, nine hundred and sixty-nine years, - and he died.

and all the days of Lamech were seven hundred and seventy-seven years, - and he died.

Then Yahweh saw that great, was the wickedness of man in the earth, and that, every purpose of the devices of his heart, was only wicked all the day;

And God beheld the earth, and lo! it had corrupted itself, - surely all flesh had corrupted its way, on the earth.

So God said unto Noah: the end of all flesh, hath come in before me, for, filled, is the earth with violence, because of them, - behold me, then, destroying them with the earth.

And, I, behold me! bringing in the flood - even waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh wherein is the spirit of life, from under the heavens, - everything that is in the earth, shall cease to breathe:

therefore will I establish my covenant with thee, - and thou shalt enter into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons wives, with thee.

Moreover of all the living creatures of all flesh - two of each, shalt thou bring into the ark to keep alive with thee, - male and female, shall they be.

But thou, take to thee of all food that is eaten, and gather it unto thee, - and it shall be for thee and for them for food.

And Noah did so , - according to all that God commanded him, so did he.

And Yahweh said to Noah, Enter thou and all thy house, into the ark, - for, thee, have I seen righteous before me, in this generation.

Of all the clean beasts, shalt thou take to thee by sevens, a male and his female, - and, of the beasts that are not clean,, shall be two a male and his female.

Also of the bird of the heavens, by sevens, male and female, - to keep alive a seed on the face of all the earth.

For in seven days more, I, am sending rain on the earth, forty days and forty nights, - so will I wipe out all the living things which I have made, from off the face of the ground.

And Noah did, - according to all that Yahweh commanded him.

In the six hundredth year, the year of the life of Noah. in the second month on the seventeenth day of the month on this day, were burst open all the fountains of the great roaring deep, and the windows of the heavens, were set open.

they, and all the wild-beasts after their kind and all the tame-beasts after their kind, and all the creeping things that creep on the earth after their kind, - and all the birds after their kind, every bird of every wing.

So they entered in unto Noah, into the ark, - two and two of all flesh, wherein was the spirit of life.

And, they that entered, male and female of all flesh, entered, as God commanded him, - and Yahweh shut him in round about.

Yea the waters, prevailed very greatly, on the earth, - so that all the high mountains became covered, that were under all the heavens:

And all flesh ceased to breathe that moved on the earth, of birds and of tame-beasts and of wild-beasts, and of all the swarming things that swarm on the earth, - land all mankind.

All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life of all that were on the dry ground died.

Thus was wiped out all that existed on the face of the ground, from man unto beast unto creeping thing, and unto the bird of the heavens, thus were they wiped out from the earth, - so that there was left - only Noah and they that were with him in the ark.

And God remembered Noah, and all the wild - beasts and all the tame-beasts that were with him in the ark, - and God caused a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided;

but the dove found no resting-place for the sole of her foot so she returned unto him into the ark, for, waters, were on the face of all the earth; and he put forth his hand and took her, and brought her in unto him, into the ark.

All the living creatures that are with thee of all flesh among birds, and among beasts, and among all the creeping things that creep on the earth, bring forth with thee, - and they shall swarm in the earth, and be fruitful and multiply, on the earth.

All the living creatures, all that move along, and all birds, and all that moveth along over the earth - by their families, came forth out of the ark.

And Noah builded an altar to Yahweh, - and took of all the clean beasts and of all the clean birds, and caused ascending Sacrifices to go up on the altar.

And Yahweh smelled a satisfying odour, so Yahweh said to himself. I will not, again, curse any more the ground for man's sake, although the device of the heart of man, be wicked from his youth, - neither will I again, any more smite every living thing, as I have done.

During all the days of the earth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat and summer and winter, and day and night, shall not cease.

and let the fear of you and the dread of you be upon every living creature of the earth, and upon every bird of the heavens, - over everything that moveth along on the ground, and over all the fishes of the sea, - into your hand, have they been given.

As for every moving thing that hath life, yours, shall it be, for food, - Like the green herb, have I given you all things.

And surely your blood, of your lives, will I require, From the hand of every living creature, will I require it, - and from the hand of man From the hand of each ones brother, will I require the life of man:

and with every living soul that is with you, of birds, of tame-beasts and of all wild-beasts of the earth that are with you, - of all coming forth out of the ark, even to all wild-beasts of the earth;

yea, I will establish my covenant with you, so that all flesh shall not be cut off any more, by reason of the waters of a flood, - neither shall there he any more a flood to destroy the earth.

then will I remember my covenant which is betwixt me and you, and every living soul among all flesh, - that the waters may no more become a flood, to destroy all flesh:

so the bow shall be in the cloud, - and I will behold it, to remember an age-abiding covenant, between God, and every living soul among all flesh that is on the earth.

And God said unto Noah, This is the sign of the covenant which have established, between me and all flesh that is on the earth.

These three, were the sons of Noah, - and from these, was all the earth overspread.

so, all the days of Noah, were - nine hundred and fifty years, - and he died.

Now, to Shem, father of all the sons of Eber, elder brother of Japheth, to him also, were children born.

and Ophir and Havilah, and Jobab - all these were sons of Joktan.

So it came to pass that, all the earth, was of one manner of speech, - and of one stock of words.

And they said Come on! let us build for ourselves a city, and a tower with its head in the heavens, so let us make for ourselves a name, - lest we be scattered abroad over the face of all the earth.

Then said Yahweh: Lo! one people and one manner of speech, have they all, this, then is what they have begun to do, - now, therefore, nothing will be withholden from them which they may plan to do.

So Yahweh scattered them from thence over the face of all the earth, - and so they left off building the city.

For this cause, was the name thereof called Babel; because there, did Yahweh confuse the speech of all the earth, - and, from thence, did Yahweh scatter them abroad, over the face of all the earth.

And Yahweh said unto Abram: Come thou on thy way, Out of thy land and out of the place of thy birth and out of the house of thy father, - Unto the land that I will show thee;

That I may bless them who bless thee, But him who maketh light of thee, will I curse, - So shall be, blessed in thee, all the families of the ground.

And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, with all the goods that they bad gathered and the souls that they had gained in Haran, - and they came forth to go towards the land of Canaan, and came in to the land of Canaan.

And Yahweh appeared unto Abram, and said: To thy seed, will I give this land, - And he built there an altar, unto Yahweh who appeared unto him.

so will it come to pass when the Egyptians behold thee, that they will say, His wife, this! and will slay me while thee, they preserve alive.

Say, I beseech thee that my sister, art thou, - to the end it may be well with me for thy sake, so shall my soul be preserved alive because of thee.

and with Abram, dealt he well for her sake, - so that he came to have flocks and herds and he-asses, and men-servants, and maid-servants, and she-asses and camels.

And Pharaoh gave command concerning him unto certain men, - and sent him away, with his wife and all that he had.

So Abram came up out of Egypt he and his wife and all that he had and Lot with him, towards the South.

Is not, all the land, before thee? I pray thee, separate thyself from me, - if to the left hand, then I will go to the right, if to the right hand, then I will go to the left.

So Lot lifted up his eyes and beheld all the circuit of the Jordan, that the whole of it, was well-watered, - before Yahweh destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the Garden of Yahweh, like the land of Egypt, as thou enterest into Zoar.

And Lot chose for himself all the circuit of the Jordan, so Lot brake up eastwards, - and they separated themselves, each man from his brother:

for all the land which thou art beholding - to thee, will I give it, and to thy seed unto times age-abiding;

and I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth, - so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, thy seed also, may be numbered.

Rise! go up and down in the land, to the length thereof and to the breadth thereof, for to thee, will I give it.

All these, joined together in the valley of the open fields, the same, is the Salt Sea.

and the Horites in their Mount Seir, - as far as El-paran, which is by the desert.

So they returned and came in unto En-mishpat, the same, is Kadish, and smote all the field of the Amalekites, - and the Amorites also that dwelt in Hazazon-tamar,

Now, the valley of the open fields, had many pits of bitumen, so the king of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there, - while, they who remained, towards a mountain, fled.

And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their food and went their way.

So he brought back all the goods, - yea Lot also his brother with his goods, did he bring back, and the women also, and the people.

And blessed be GOD Most High, who hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. So he gave unto him a tenth of all.

That not from a thread even unto a sandal-thong, - will I take, anything, that is thine, - Lest thou shouldst say, I, enriched Abram!

So he took for him all these, and divided them, in the midst, and placed each piece over against its fellow, hut the birds, divided he not.

And he said to Abram - Thou must surely know, that, sojourners, will thy seed become in a land not theirs, and shall serve them and they will humble them, four hundred years;

moreover also, the nation whom they will serve, I, am going to judge, and after that, shall they come forth with great substance.

And the messenger of Yahweh said to her, I will, greatly multiply, thy seed - so that it shall not be numbered for multitude.

But, he, will be a wild ass of a man, his hand, against every one, and every ones hand against him - yet, in presence of all his brethren, shall he have his habitation.

On this account, is the well called, the well of the life of vision, lo! it is between Kadesh and Bered.

And I will make thee fruitful, exceedingly, and grant thee to be nations, - Yea kings, out of thee, shall come forth;
