So water came up from the earth and spread over the ground.
This was before there were plants on the earth. Nothing was growing in the fields because the Lord God had not yet made it rain on the earth, and there was no one to care for the plants.
Then the Lord God took dust from the ground and made a man. He breathed the breath of life into the man’s nose, and the man became a living thing.
He brings the clouds from the other side of the earth. He sends the lightning and the rain, and he opens the doors to release the winds.
