Genesis 2:11 in Context — Genesis 2
9 L’Éternel Dieu fit pousser du sol des arbres de toute espèce, agréables à voir et bons à manger, et l’arbre de la vie au milieu du jardin, et l’arbre de la connaissance du bien et du mal.
10 Un fleuve sortait d’Éden pour arroser le jardin, et de là il se divisait en quatre bras.
11 Le nom du premier est Pischon; c’est celui qui entoure tout le pays de Havila, où se trouve l’or.
12 L’or de ce pays est pur; on y trouve aussi le bdellium et la pierre d’onyx.
13 Le nom du second fleuve est Guihon; c’est celui qui entoure tout le pays de Cusch.
