The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden
to work it and to take care of it.
- Genesis 2:15

The earth dries up and withers,
the world languishes and withers;
the heavens languish together with the earth.
The earth lies polluted under its inhabitants;
for they have transgressed laws, violated the statutes
broken the everlasting covenant.
Therefore a curse devours the earth,
and its inhabitants suffer for their guilt.
- Isaiah 24:4-6
- The prophet Isaiah (c.760-690 B.C.)
