تكوين 2
| وَهَكَذَا اكْتَمَلَتِ السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالأَرْضُ بِكُلِّ مَا فِيهَا. | ١ 1 |
The heavens, the earth, and all their vast array were finished.
| وَفِي الْيَوْمِ السَّابِعِ أَتَمَّ اللهُ عَمَلَهُ الَّذِي قَامَ بِهِ، فَاسْتَرَاحَ فِيهِ مِنْ جَمِيعِ مَا عَمِلَهُ. | ٢ 2 |
On the seventh day God finished his work which he had done; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done.
| وَبَارَكَ اللهُ الْيَوْمَ السَّابِعَ وَقَدَّسَهُ، لأَنَّهُ اسْتَرَاحَ فِيهِ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَعْمَالِ الْخَلْقِ. | ٣ 3 |
God blessed the seventh day, and made it holy, because he rested in it from all his work of creation which he had done.
| هَذَا وَصْفٌ مَبْدَئِيٌّ لِلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضِ يَوْمَ خَلَقَهَا الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ. | ٤ 4 |
This is the history of the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens.
| وَلَمْ يَكُنْ قَدْ نَبَتَ بَعْدُ فِي الأَرْضِ شَجَرٌ بَرِّيٌّ وَلَا عُشْبٌ بَرِّيٌّ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ الإِلَهَ لَمْ يَكُنْ قَدْ أَرْسَلَ مَطَراً عَلَى الأَرْضِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ هُنَاكَ إِنْسَانٌ لِيَفْلَحَهَا، | ٥ 5 |
No plant of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up; for the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the earth. There was not a man to till the ground,
| إلَّا أَنَّ ضَبَاباً كَانَ يَتَصَاعَدُ مِنَ الأَرْضِ فَيَسْقِي سَطْحَهَا كُلَّهُ. | ٦ 6 |
but a mist went up from the earth, and watered the whole surface of the ground.
| ثُمَّ جَبَلَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ آدَمَ مِنْ تُرَابِ الأَرْضِ وَنَفَخَ فِي أَنْفِهِ نَسَمَةَ حَيَاةٍ، فَصَارَ آدَمُ نَفْساً حَيَّةً. | ٧ 7 |
The LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
| وَأَقَامَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ جَنَّةً فِي شَرْقِيِّ عَدْنٍ وَوَضَعَ فِيهَا آدَمَ الَّذِي جَبَلَهُ. | ٨ 8 |
The LORD God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed.
| وَاستَنْبَتَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ مِنَ الأَرْضِ كُلَّ شَجَرَةٍ بَهِيَّةٍ لِلنَّظَرِ، وَلَذِيذَةٍ لِلأَكْلِ، وَغَرَسَ أَيْضاً شَجَرَةَ الْحَيَاةِ، وَشَجَرَةَ مَعْرِفَةِ الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ فِي وَسَطِ الْجَنَّةِ. | ٩ 9 |
Out of the ground the LORD God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, including the tree of life in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
| وَكَانَ نَهْرٌ يَجْرِي فِي عَدْنٍ لِيَسْقِيَ الْجَنَّةَ، وَمَا يَلْبَثُ أَنْ يَنْقَسِمَ مِنْ هُنَاكَ إِلَى أَرْبَعَةِ أَنْهارٍ: | ١٠ 10 |
A river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it was parted, and became the source of four rivers.
| الأَوَّلُ مِنْهَا يُدْعَى فِيشُونَ، الَّذِي يَلْتَفُّ حَوْلَ كُلِّ الْحَوِيلَةِ حَيْثُ يُوْجَدُ الذَّهَبُ. | ١١ 11 |
The name of the first is Pishon: it flows through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
| وَذَهَبُ تِلْكَ الأَرْضِ جَيِّدٌ، وَفِيهَا أَيْضاً الْمُقْلُ وَحَجَرُ الْجَزْعِ. | ١٢ 12 |
and the gold of that land is good. Bdellium and onyx stone are also there.
| وَالنَّهْرُ الثَّانِي يُدْعَى جِيحُونَ الَّذِي يُحِيطُ بِجَمِيعِ أَرْضِ كُوشٍ. | ١٣ 13 |
The name of the second river is Gihon. It is the same river that flows through the whole land of Cush.
| وَالنَّهْرُ الثَّالِثُ يُدْعَى حِدَّاقِلَ وَهُوَ الْجَارِي فِي شَرْقِيِّ أَشُّورَ. وَالنَّهْرُ الرَّابِعُ هُوَ الْفُرَاتُ. | ١٤ 14 |
The name of the third river is Hiddekel. This is the one which flows in front of Assyria. The fourth river is the Euphrates.
| وَأَخَذَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ آدَمَ وَوَضَعَهُ فِي جَنَّةِ عَدْنٍ لِيَفْلَحَهَا وَيَعْتَنِيَ بِها. | ١٥ 15 |
The LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it.
| وَأَمَرَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ آدَمَ قَائِلا: «كُلْ مَا تَشَاءُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَشْجَارِ الْجَنَّةِ، | ١٦ 16 |
The LORD God commanded the man, saying, “You may freely eat of every tree of the garden;
| وَلَكِنْ إِيَّاكَ أَنْ تَأْكُلَ مِنْ شَجَرَةِ مَعْرِفَةِ الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ لأَنَّكَ حِينَ تَأْكُلُ مِنْهَا حَتْماً تَمُوت». | ١٧ 17 |
but you shall not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely die.”
| ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ: «لَيْسَ جَيِّداً أَنْ يَبْقَى آدَمُ وَحِيداً. سَأَصْنَعُ لَهُ مُعِيناً مُشَابِهاً لَهُ». | ١٨ 18 |
The LORD God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a helper comparable to him.”
| وَكَانَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ قَدْ جَبَلَ مِنَ التُّرَابِ كُلَّ وُحُوشِ الْبَرِّيَّةِ وَطُيُورِ الْفَضَاءِ وَأَحْضَرَهَا إِلَى آدَمَ لِيَرَى بِأَيِّ أَسْمَاءَ يَدْعُوهَا، فَصَارَ كُلُّ اسْمٍ أَطْلَقَهُ آدَمُ عَلَى كُلِّ مَخْلُوقٍ حَيٍّ اسْماً لَهُ. | ١٩ 19 |
Out of the ground the LORD God formed every animal of the field, and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the man called every living creature became its name.
| وَهَكَذَا أَطْلَقَ آدَمُ أَسْمَاءَ عَلَى كُلِّ الطُّيُورِ وَالْحَيَوَانَاتِ وَالْبَهَائِمِ. غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَجِدْ لِنَفْسِهِ مُعِيناً مُشَابِهاً لَهُ. | ٢٠ 20 |
The man gave names to all livestock, and to the birds of the sky, and to every animal of the field; but for man there was not found a helper comparable to him.
| فَأَوْقَعَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ آدَمَ فِي نَوْمٍ عَمِيقٍ، ثُمَّ تَنَاوَلَ ضِلْعاً مِنْ أَضْلَاعِهِ وَسَدَّ مَكَانَهَا بِاللَّحْمِ، | ٢١ 21 |
The LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep. As the man slept, he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.
| وَعَمِلَ مِنْ هَذِهِ الضِّلْعِ امْرَأَةً أَحْضَرَهَا إِلَى آدَمَ. | ٢٢ 22 |
The LORD God made a woman from the rib which he had taken from the man, and brought her to the man.
| فَقَالَ آدَمُ: «هَذِهِ الآنَ عَظْمٌ مِنْ عِظَامِي وَلَحْمٌ مِنْ لَحْمِي. فَهِيَ تُدْعَى امْرَأَةً لأَنَّهَا مِنِ امْرِئٍ أُخِذَتْ». | ٢٣ 23 |
The man said, “This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called ‘woman,’ because she was taken out of Man.”
| لِهَذَا، فَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ يَتْرُكُ أَبَاهُ وَأُمَّهُ وَيَلْتَصِقُ بِامْرَأَتِهِ، وَيَصِيرَانِ جَسَداً وَاحِداً. | ٢٤ 24 |
Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh.
| وَكَانَ آدَمُ وَامْرَأَتُهُ عُرْيَانَيْنِ، وَلَمْ يَخْجَلَا مِنْ ذَلِكَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
The man and his wife were both naked, and they were not ashamed.
