¹¹ And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, herbs yielding seed, fruit-trees yielding fruit after their kind, in which its seed is upon the earth: and it was so. ¹² And the earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees yielding fruit, in which its seed is after their kind: and God saw that it was good.

¹⁴ Thou art he who causeth grass to grow for the cattle, and herbs by the service of man, that he may bring forth bread out of the earth; ¹⁵ And wine that maketh joyful the heart of man, and oil to brighten his face, and bread which strengtheneth the heart of man.

²⁵ Is it not so? that, when he hath made level its surface he scattereth fennel, and streweth about cumin, and planteth the wheat in rows, and barley on its assigned place, and millet on its proper spot? ²⁶ For his God instructed him rightly, taught him so to do. ²⁷ Truly not with a threshing instrument is fennel threshed, and a wagon-wheel is not turned about upon cumin; but fennel is beaten out with a staff, and cumin with a stick. ²⁸ Bread-corn is crushed; but not for ever doth man keep threshing it; and though he drive over it the wheel of his wagon and his horses, he will not thereby crush it. ²⁹ This also cometh forth from the Lord of hosts; wonderful is he in counsel, and excellent in his wise deeds.

¹³ In ‘Eden the garden of God didst thou abide; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, the topaz, and the diamond, the chrysolite, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold; thy tabrets and thy flutes of artificial workmanship were prepared in thee on the day thou wast created. ¹⁴ Thou wast a cherub with outspread covering wings; and I had set thee upon the holy mountain of God as thou wast; in the midst of the stones of fire didst thou wander.
