Genesis 2:13

11 The name of the first river is Pishon; it winds through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.

12 And the gold of that land is pure, and bdellium and onyx are found there.

The name of the second river is Gihon; it winds through the whole land of Cush.

14 The name of the third river is Hiddekel; it runs along the east side of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.

15 Then the LORD God took the man and placed him in the Garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it.
