+ تكوين 1 >

فِي الْبَدْءِ خَلَقَ اللهُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالأَرْضَ، ١ 1
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
وَإِذْ كَانَتِ الأَرْضُ مُشَوَّشَةً وَمُقْفِرَةً وَتَكْتَنِفُ الظُّلْمَةُ وَجْهَ الْمِيَاهِ، وَإِذْ كَانَ رُوحُ اللهِ يُرَفْرِفُ عَلَى سَطْحِ الْمِيَاهِ، ٢ 2
And the earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
أَمَرَ اللهُ: «لِيَكُنْ نُورٌ». فَصَارَ نُورٌ، ٣ 3
And God said, Let there be light, and there was light.
وَرَأَى اللهُ النُّورَ فَاسْتَحْسَنَهُ وَفَصَلَ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الظَّلامِ. ٤ 4
And God saw the light, that it was good. And God divided the light from the darkness.
وَسَمَّى اللهُ النُّورَ نَهَاراً، أَمَّا الظَّلامُ فَسَمَّاهُ لَيْلاً. وَهَكَذَا جَاءَ مَسَاءٌ أَعْقَبَهُ صَبَاحٌ، فَكَانَ الْيَوْمَ الأَوَّلَ. ٥ 5
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day.
ثُمَّ أَمَرَ اللهُ: «لِيَكُنْ جَلَدٌ يَحْجُزُ بَيْنَ مِيَاهٍ وَمِيَاهٍ». ٦ 6
And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
فَخَلَقَ اللهُ الْجَلَدَ، وَفَرَّقَ بَيْنَ الْمِيَاهِ الَّتِي تَحْمِلُهَا السُّحُبُ وَالْمِيَاهِ الَّتِي تَغْمُرُ الأَرْضَ. وَهَكَذَا كَانَ. ٧ 7
And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament. And it was so.
وَسَمَّى اللهُ الْجَلَدَ سَمَاءً. ثُمَّ جَاءَ مَسَاءٌ أَعْقَبَهُ صَبَاحٌ فَكَانَ الْيَوْمَ الثَّانِي. ٨ 8
And God called the firmament Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.
ثُمَّ أَمَرَ اللهُ: «لِتَتَجَمَّعِ الْمِيَاهُ الَّتِي تَحْتَ السَّمَاءِ إِلَى مَوْضِعٍ وَاحِدٍ، وَلْتَظْهَرِ الْيَابِسَةُ». وَهَكَذَا كَانَ. ٩ 9
And God said, Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear. And it was so.
وَسَمَّى اللهُ الْيَابِسَةَ أَرْضاً وَالْمِيَاهَ الْمُجْتَمِعَةَ بِحَاراً. وَرَأَى اللهُ ذَلِكَ فَاسْتَحْسَنَهُ. ١٠ 10
And God called the dry land Earth, and he called the gathering together of the waters Seas. And God saw that it was good.
وَأَمَرَ اللهُ: «لِتُنْبِتِ الأَرْضُ خُضْرَةً، وَشَجَراً مُثْمِراً فِيهِ بِزْرُهُ الَّذِي يُنْتِجُ ثَمَراً كَجِنْسِهِ فِي الأَرْضِ». وَهَكَذَا كَانَ. ١١ 11
And God said, Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit according to their kind (in which is the seed of them) upon the earth. And it was so.
فَأَنْبَتَتِ الأَرْضُ كُلَّ أَنْوَاعِ الأَعْشَابِ وَالْبُقُولِ الَّتِي تَحْمِلُ بُزُوراً مِنْ جِنْسِهَا، وَالأَشْجَارَ الَّتِي تَحْمِلُ أَثْمَاراً ذَاتَ بُذُورٍ حَسَبَ نَوْعِهَا. وَرَأَى اللهُ ذَلِكَ فَاسْتَحْسَنَهُ. ١٢ 12
And the earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed according to their kind, and trees bearing fruit in which is the seed of it, according to their kind. And God saw that it was good.
وَجَاءَ مَسَاءٌ أَعْقَبَهُ صَبَاحٌ فَكَانَ الْيَوْمَ الثَّالِثَ. ١٣ 13
And there was evening and there was morning, a third day.
ثُمَّ أَمَرَ اللهُ: «لِتَكُنْ أَنْوَارٌ فِي قُبَّةِ السَّمَاءِ لِتُفَرِّقَ بَيْنَ النَّهَارِ وَاللَّيْلِ، فَتَكُونَ عَلَامَاتٍ لِتَحْدِيدِ أَزْمِنَةٍ وَأَيَّامٍ وَسِنِينَ. ١٤ 14
And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of heaven to divide the day from the night, and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years.
وَتَكُونَ أَيْضاً أَنْوَاراً فِي قُبَّةِ السَّمَاءِ لِتُضِيءَ الأَرْضَ». وَهَكَذَا كَانَ. ١٥ 15
And let them be for lights in the firmament of heaven to give light upon the earth. And it was so.
وَخَلَقَ اللهُ نُورَيْنِ عَظِيمَيْنِ، النُّورَ الأَكْبَرَ لِيُشْرِقَ فِي النَّهَارِ، وَالنُّورَ الأَصْغَرَ لِيُضِيءَ فِي اللَّيْلِ، كَمَا خَلَقَ النُّجُومَ أَيْضاً. ١٦ 16
And God made the two great lights, the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night, also the stars.
وَجَعَلَهَا اللهُ فِي قُبَّةِ السَّمَاءِ لِتُضِيءَ الأَرْضَ، ١٧ 17
And God set them in the firmament of heaven to give light upon the earth,
لِتَتَحَكَّمَ بِالنَّهَارِ وَبِاللَّيْلِ وَلِتُفَرِّقَ بَيْنَ النُّورِ وَالظَّلامِ. وَرَأَى اللهُ ذَلِكَ فَاسْتَحْسَنَهُ. ١٨ 18
and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
وَجَاءَ مَسَاءٌ أَعْقَبَهُ صَبَاحٌ فَكَانَ الْيَوْمَ الرَّابِعَ. ١٩ 19
And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
ثُمَّ أَمَرَ اللهُ: «لِتَمْتَلِئِ الْمِيَاهُ بِشَتَّى الْحَيَوَانَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ وَلْتُحَلِّقِ الطُّيُورُ فَوْقَ الأَرْضِ عَبْرَ فَضَاءِ السَّمَاءِ». ٢٠ 20
And God said, Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
وَهَكَذَا خَلَقَ اللهُ الْحَيَوَانَاتِ الْمَائِيَّةَ الضَّخْمَةَ، وَالْكَائِنَاتِ الْحَيَّةَ الَّتِي امْتَلأَتْ بِها الْمِيَاهُ، كُلًّا حَسَبَ أَجْنَاسِهَا، وَأَيْضاً الطُّيُورَ وَفْقاً لأَنْوَاعِهَا. وَرَأَى اللهُ ذَلِكَ فَاسْتَحْسَنَهُ. ٢١ 21
And God created the great sea creatures, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, according to their kind, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
وَبَارَكَهَا اللهُ قَائِلاً: «انْتِجِي، وَتَكَاثَرِي وَامْلإِي مِيَاهَ الْبِحَارِ. وَلْتَتَكَاثَرِ الطُّيُورُ فَوْقَ الأَرْضِ». ٢٢ 22
And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.
ثُمَّ جَاءَ مَسَاءٌ أَعْقَبَهُ صَبَاحٌ فَكَانَ الْيَوْمَ الْخَامِسَ. ٢٣ 23
And there was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
ثُمَّ أَمَرَ اللهُ: «لِتُخْرِجِ الأَرْضُ كَائِنَاتٍ حَيَّةً، كُلًّا حَسَبَ جِنْسِهَا، مِنْ بَهَائِمَ وَزَوَاحِفَ وَوُحُوشٍ وَفْقاً لأَنْوَاعِهَا». وَهَكَذَا كَانَ. ٢٤ 24
And God said, Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kind, cattle, and creeping things, and beasts of the earth according to their kind. And it was so.
فَخَلَقَ اللهُ وُحُوشَ الأَرْضِ، وَالْبَهَائِمَ وَالزَّوَاحِفَ، كُلًّا حَسَبَ نَوْعِهَا. وَرَأَى اللهُ ذَلِكَ فَاسْتَحْسَنَهُ. ٢٥ 25
And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kind, and the cattle according to their kind, and everything that creeps upon the ground according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
ثُمَّ قَالَ اللهُ: «لِنَصْنَعِ الإِنْسَانَ عَلَى صُورَتِنَا، كَمِثَالِنَا، فَيَتَسَلَّطَ عَلَى سَمَكِ الْبَحْرِ، وَعَلَى طَيْرِ السَّمَاءِ، وَعَلَى الأَرْضِ، وَعَلَى كُلِّ زَاحِفٍ يَزْحَفُ عَلَيْهَا». ٢٦ 26
And God said, Let us make mankind in our image-after our likeness-and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.
فَخَلَقَ اللهُ الإِنْسَانَ عَلَى صُورَتِهِ. عَلَى صُورَةِ اللهِ خَلَقَهُ. ذَكَراً وَأُنْثَى خَلَقَهُمْ. ٢٧ 27
And God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created him, male and female he created them.
وَبَارَكَهُمُ اللهُ قَائِلاً لَهُمْ: «أَثْمِرُوا وَتَكَاثَرُوا وَامْلَأُوا الأَرْضَ وَأَخْضِعُوهَا. وَتَسَلَّطُوا عَلَى سَمَكِ الْبَحْرِ، وَعَلَى طَيْرِ السَّمَاءِ وَعَلَى كُلِّ حَيَوَانٍ يَتَحَرَّكُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ». ٢٨ 28
And God blessed them. And God said to them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth, and have power over it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.
ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُمْ: «إِنِّي قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُكُمْ كُلَّ أَصْنَافِ النَّبَاتَاتِ ذَاتِ الْبُذُورِ الْمُنْتَشِرَةِ عَلَى كُلِّ سَطْحِ الأَرْضِ، وَكُلَّ شَجَرٍ يَحْمِلُ ثَمَراً فِيهِ بُذُورٌ، لِتَكُونَ لَكُمْ طَعَاماً. ٢٩ 29
And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed. To you it shall be for food,
أَمَّا الْعُشْبُ الأَخْضَرُ فَقَدْ جَعَلْتُهُ طَعَاماً لِوُحُوشِ الأَرْضِ وَلِطُيُورِ السَّمَاءِ وَالْحَيَوَانَاتِ الزَّاحِفَةِ، وَلجَمِيعِ الْكَائِنَاتِ الْحَيَّةِ». وَهَكَذَا كَانَ. ٣٠ 30
and to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the heavens, and to everything that creeps upon the earth in which there is life, for food-every green herb. And it was so.
وَرَأَى اللهُ مَا خَلَقَهُ فَاسْتَحْسَنَهُ جِدّاً. ثُمَّ جَاءَ مَسَاءٌ أَعْقَبَهُ صَبَاحٌ فَكَانَ الْيَوْمَ السَّادِسُ. ٣١ 31
And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
