Genesis

God makes the heavens and the earth, fills them, and rests on the seventh day.

The serpent speaks, the fruit is taken, and the human is sent out of the garden.

A brother's offering is refused, and the first blood is shed on the ground.

The earth is filled with violence, a flood covers it, and a covenant is set in the cloud.

Nations spread, a tower is raised, and language is scattered.

A man is called, a promise is given, and a son is asked for on a mountain.

Twins wrestle in the womb, a birthright is sold, and a blessing is stolen.

A ladder, a long service, a new name, and a family that cannot yet be at peace.

A son is sold, Egypt is fed, and what was meant for harm is turned.
