Genesis 2:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
2 2 God resteth the seventh day, and sanctifieth it. 15 He setteth man in the garden. 22 He createth the woman. 24 Marriage is ordained.
1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the [a]host of them.
2 For in the seventh day God ended his work which he had made, (A)and the seventh day he [b]rested from all his work, which he had made.
3 So God blessed the seventh day, and [c]sanctified it, because that in it he had rested from all his work, which God created and made.
