8. The LORD God planted a garden eastward, in EDEN, and there he put the man whom he had formed.

9. Out of the ground the LORD God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, including the tree of life in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

10. A river went out of EDEN to water the garden; and from there it was parted, and became the source of four rivers.

11. The name of the first is Pishon: it flows through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;

12. and the gold of that land is good. Bdellium and onyx stone are also there.

13. The name of the second river is Gihon. It is the same river that flows through the whole land of Cush.

14. The name of the third river is Hiddekel. This is the one which flows in front of Assyria. The fourth river is the Euphrates.

15. The LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of EDEN to cultivate and keep it.

16. The LORD God commanded the man, saying, "You may freely eat of every tree of the garden;

17. but you shall not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely die."

23. Therefore the LORD God sent him out from the garden of EDEN, to till the ground from which he was taken.

24. So he drove out the man; and he placed cherubim at the east of the garden of EDEN, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life.Ezekiel 10.

Cain left The LORD's presence, and lived in the land of Nod, east of EDEN.

For the LORD has comforted Zion.He has comforted all her waste places,and has made her wilderness like EDEN,and her desert like the garden of The LORD.Joy and gladness will be found therein,thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.

You were in EDEN,the garden of God.Every precious stone adorned you:ruby, topaz, emerald,chrysolite, onyx, jasper,sapphire, turquoise, and beryl.Gold work of tambourinesand of pipes was in you.They were prepared in the day that you were created.

9. I made it beautiful by the multitude of its branches,so that all the trees of EDEN,that were in the garden of God, envied it.'

10. "Therefore thus said the Lord God: 'Because you are exalted in stature, and he has set his top among the thick boughs, and his heart is lifted up in his height;

11. I will even deliver him into the hand of the mighty one of the nations. He will surely deal with him. I have driven him out for his wickedness.

12. Strangers, the tyrants of the nations, have cut him off, and have left him. His branches have fallen on the mountains and in all the valleys and his boughs are broken by all the watercourses of the land. All the peoples of the earth have gone down from his shadow, and have left him.

13. All the birds of the sky will dwell on his ruin, and all the animals of the field will be on his branches;

14. to the end that none of all the trees by the waters exalt themselves in their stature, and don't set their top among the thick boughs. Their mighty ones don't stand up on their height, even all who drink water; for they are all delivered to death, to the lower parts of the earth, among the children of men, with those who go down to the pit.'

15. "Thus says the Lord God: 'In the day when he went down to Sheol I caused a mourning. I covered the deep for him, and I restrained its rivers. The great waters were stopped. I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him.

16. I made the nations to shake at the sound of his fall, when I cast him down to Sheol with those who descend into the pit. All the trees of EDEN, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that drink water, were comforted in the lower parts of the earth.

17. They also went down into Sheol with him to those who are slain by the sword; yes, those who were his arm, who lived under his shadow in the middle of the nations.

18. "'To whom are you thus like in glory and in greatness among the trees of EDEN? Yet you will be brought down with the trees of EDEN to the lower parts of the earth. You will lie in the middle of the uncircumcised, with those who are slain by the sword."'This is Pharaoh and all his multitude,' says the Lord God."
