Битие 1
1 В началото Бог създаде небето и земята.
In the beginning, God created heaven and earth.
2 А земята беше пуста и неустроена; и тъмнина покриваше бездната; и Божият Дух се носеше над водата.
But the earth was empty and unoccupied, and darknesses were over the face of the abyss; and so the Spirit of God was brought over the waters.
3 И Бог каза: Да бъде светлина. И стана светлина.
And God said, “Let there be light.” And light became.
4 И Бог видя, че светлината беше добро; и Бог раздели светлината от тъмнината.
And God saw the light, that it was good; and so he divided the light from the darknesses.
5 И Бог нарече светлината Ден, а тъмнината нарече Нощ. И стана вечер, и стана утро, ден първи.
And he called the light, ‘Day,’ and the darknesses, ‘Night.’ And it became evening and morning, one day.
6 И Бог каза: Да бъде простор посред водите, който да раздели вода от вода.
God also said, “Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide waters from waters.”
7 И Бог направи простора; и раздели водата, която беше под простора
And God made a firmament, and he divided the waters that were under the firmament, from those that were above the firmament. And so it became.
8 И Бог нарече простора Небе. И стана вечер, и стана утро, ден втори.
And God called the firmament ‘Heaven.’ And it became evening and morning, the second day.
9 И Бог каза: Да се събере на едно място водата, която е под небето, та да се яви сушата; и стана така.
Truly God said: “Let the waters that are under heaven be gathered together into one place; and let the dry land appear.” And so it became.
10 И Бог нарече сушата Земя, и събраната вода нарече Морета; и Бог видя, че беше добро.
And God called the dry land, ‘Earth,’ and he called the gathering of the waters, ‘Seas.’ And God saw that it was good.
11 И Бог каза: Да произрасти земята крехка трева, трева семеносна и плодно дърво, което да ражда плод, според вида си, чието семе да е в него на земята; и стана така.
And he said, “Let the land spring forth green plants, both those producing seed, and fruit-bearing trees, producing fruit according to their kind, whose seed is within itself, over all the earth.” And so it became.
12 Земята произрасти крехка трева, трева която дава семе, според вида си, и дърво, което да ражда плод, според вида си, чието семе е в него; и Бог видя че беше добро.
And the land brought forth green plants, both those producing seed, according to their kind, and trees producing fruit, with each having its own way of sowing, according to its species. And God saw that it was good.
13 И стана вечер, и стана утро ден трети.
And it became evening and the morning, the third day.
14 И Бог каза: Да има светлина на небесния простор, за да разделят деня от нощта; нека служат за знаци и за показване времената, дните, годините;
Then God said: “Let there be lights in the firmament of heaven. And let them divide day from night, and let them become signs, both of the seasons, and of the days and years.
15 и да бъдат за светила на небесния простор, за да осветляват земята; и стана така.
Let them shine in the firmament of heaven and illuminate the earth.” And so it became.
16 Бог създаде двете големи светила: по-голямото светило, за да владее деня, а по-малкото светило, за да владее нощта; създаде и звездите.
And God made two great lights: a greater light, to rule over the day, and a lesser light, to rule over the night, along with the stars.
17 И Бог ги постави на небесния простор, за да осветляват земята,
And he set them in the firmament of heaven, to give light over all the earth,
18 да владеят деня и нощта, и да разделят светлината от тъмнината; и Бог видя, че беше добро.
and to rule over the day as well as the night, and to divide light from darkness. And God saw that it was good.
19 И стана вечер, и стана утро, ден четвърти.
And it became evening and morning, the fourth day.
20 И Бог каза: Да произведе водата изобилно множества одушевени влечуги, и птици да хвърчат над земята по небесния простор.
And then God said, “Let the waters produce animals with a living soul, and flying creatures above the earth, under the firmament of heaven.”
21 И Бог създаде големите морски чудовища и всяко одушевено същество, което се движи, които водата произведе изобилно, според видовете им, и всяка крилата птица според вида й; и Бог видя, че беше добро.
And God created the great sea creatures, and everything with a living soul and the ability to move that the waters produced, according to their species, and all the flying creatures, according to their kind. And God saw that it was good.
22 И благослови Бог, казвайки: Плодете се, размножавайте се, и напълнете водите в моретата; нека се размножават и птиците по земята.
And he blessed them, saying: “Increase and multiply, and fill the waters of the sea. And let the birds be multiplied above the land.”
23 И стана вечер, и стана утро, ден пети.
And it became evening and morning, the fifth day.
24 И Бог каза: Да произведе земята одушевени животни, според видовете им: добитък, влечуги и земни зверове, според видовете им; и стана така.
God also said, “Let the land produce living souls in their kind: cattle, and animals, and wild beasts of the earth, according to their species.” And so it became.
25 Бог създаде земните зверове според видовете им, добитъка - според видовете му, и всичко което пълзи по земята, според видовете му; И Бог видя, че беше добро.
And God made the wild beasts of the earth according to their species, and the cattle, and every animal on the land, according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
26 И Бог каза: Да създадем човека по Нашия образ, по Наше подобие; и нека владее над морските риби, над небесните птици, над добитъка, над цялата земя и над всяко животно, което пълзи по земята.
And he said: “Let us make Man to our image and likeness. And let him rule over the fish of the sea, and the flying creatures of the air, and the wild beasts, and the entire earth, and every animal that moves on the earth.”
27 и Бог създаде човека по Своя образ; по Божия образ го създаде; мъж и жена ги създаде.
And God created man to his own image; to the image of God he created him; male and female, he created them.
28 И Бог ги благослови. И рече им Бог: Плодете се и размножавайте, напълнете земята и обладайте я, и владейте над морските риби, над въздушните птици и над всяко живо същество, което се движи по земята.
And God blessed them, and he said, “Increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and the flying creatures of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.”
29 И Бог рече: Вижте, давам ви всяка семеносна трева, която е по лицето на цялата земя и всяко дърво, което има в себе си плод на семеносно дърво; те ще ви бъдат за храна.
And God said: “Behold, I have given you every seed-bearing plant upon the earth, and all the trees that have in themselves the ability to sow their own kind, to be food for you,
30 А на всичките земни зверове, на всичките въздушни птици, и на всичко, което пълзи по земята, в което има живот, давам, всяка зелена трева за храна; и стана така.
and for all the animals of the land, and for all the flying things of the air, and for everything that moves upon the earth and in which there is a living soul, so that they may have these on which to feed.” And so it became.
31 И Бог видя всичко, което създаде; и, ето, беше твърде добро. И стана вечер, и стана утро, ден шести.
And God saw everything that he had made. And they were very good. And it became evening and morning, the sixth day.
