26 Then God said, ^o“Let us make man¹ in our image, ^pafter our likeness. And ^qlet them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

15 The Lord God took the man ^kand put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it. 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, 17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil ^lyou shall not eat, for in the day that you eat¹ of it you ^mshall surely die.”
