Genesis 2:6 in Context — Genesis 2

4 Estas são as origens dos céus e da terra quando foram criados, no dia que o SENHOR Deus fez a terra e os céus,

5 E antes que toda planta do campo existisse na terra, e antes que toda erva do campo nascesse; porque ainda não havia o SENHOR Deus feito chover sobre a terra, nem havia homem para que lavrasse a terra;

6 Mas subia da terra um vapor, que regava toda a face da terra.

7 Formou, pois, o SENHOR Deus ao homem do pó da terra, e assoprou em seu nariz sopro de vida; e foi o homem em alma vivente.

8 E havia o SENHOR Deus plantado um jardim em Éden ao oriente, e pôs ali ao homem que havia formado.
