Genesis 2
1 To tiah van hoi long, to ah kaom hmuennawk boih to a sak pacoeng.
The heavens, the earth, and all their vast array were finished.
2 Ni sarihto naah loe Sithaw mah a sak ih tok to pacoengh, to pongah ni sarihto naah loe a toksakhaih boih thung hoiah anghak.
On the seventh 'yom ·period of time, day· God finished his work which he had done; and he shavat ·rested· on the seventh day from all his work which he had done.
3 A sak ih tok boih thung hoiah Sithaw anghakhaih niah oh pongah, sarihto ni to Sithaw mah tahamhoihaih paek moe, ciimcaisak.
God blessed the seventh day, and made it set apart holy, because he rested in it from all his work of barah' ·creation from nothingness· which he had done.
4 Angraeng Sithaw mah van hoi long sak na niah, van hoi long sakhaih kawngnawk loe hae tiah oh.
This is the history of the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created. On the day that Adonai God made earth and heaven,
5 Angraeng Sithaw mah long nuiah kho angzosak ai pongah, long ah thingkung to om ai, aan doeh amprawk ai; long ah toksah kami doeh om ai.
no plant of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up; for Adonai God had not caused it to rain on the earth. There was no human to till the ground,
6 Toe long thung hoiah tui to tacawt pongah, long to tui mah duksak boih.
but a mist went up from the earth, and watered the whole surface of the ground.
7 Angraeng Sithaw mah long ih maiphu hoiah kami to sak moe, anih ih hnahkhaw thungah hinghaih takhi to uengh pae; to naah hinghaih tawn kami ah angcoeng.
Adonai God formed and framed a human from the dust of ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breaths of lives; and man became a living soul.
8 Angraeng Sithaw mah ni angyae bang ih Eden ah takha maeto sak; to ah a sak ih kami to a suek.
Adonai God planted a garden eastward, in Eden [Delight], and there he put the man whom he had formed.
9 Angraeng Sithaw mah to long thung hoiah khet kahoih, caak kahoih thingkung congca to amprawksak; hinghaih thingkung hoi kasae kahoih panoekhaih thingkung doeh takha um ah oh.
Out of the ground Adonai God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, including the 'etz chai ·tree of life· in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10 Takha tui paek hanah Eden takha thung hoiah vapui maeto longh; to ahmuen hoiah ampraek moe, vapui sip palito ah angphae.
A river went out of Eden [Delight] to water the garden; and from there it was parted, and became the source of four rivers.
11 Hmaloe koek ih ahmin loe Pishon; to vapui loe sui ohhaih, Havilah prae thung boih ah longh.
The name of the first is Pishon: it flows through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
12 To prae thung ih sui loe hoih; to ah loe bdellium hmuihoih thing hoi onyx thlungnawk doeh tacawt.
and the gold of that land is good. Bdellium and onyx stone are also there.
13 Hnetto haih vapui ahmin loe Gihon; to vapui loe Ethiopia prae thung boih ah longh.
The name of the second river is Gihon. It is the same river that flows through the whole land of Cush.
14 Thumto haih vapui ahmin loe Hiddekel; to loe Assyria prae ni angyae bangah longh. Palito haih vapui loe Euphrates.
The name of the third river is Hiddekel. This is the one which flows in front of Assyria [Level plain]. The fourth river is the Euphrates [Fruitful].
15 Eden takha to khetzawn moe, to ah toksak hanah, Angraeng mah kami to lak moe, takha thungah anih to suek.
Adonai God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden [Delight] to cultivate and keep it.
16 Angraeng Sithaw mah kami khaeah, Takha thungah kaom thingkung hoi tacawt athaihnawk boih to na caak thaih;
Adonai God enjoined the man, saying, “You may freely eat of every tree of the garden;
17 toe kasae kahoih panoekhaih thingthai loe na caa mak ai; na caak niah na dueh tangtang tih, tiah lokpaek.
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 have death.”
18 Angraeng Sithaw mah, Kami loe angmabueng oh han hoih ai; anih han kamcuk bomkung maeto ka sak pae han, tiah thuih.
Adonai God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a help-mate suitable for him.”
19 Angraeng Sithaw mah long hoiah sak ih taw ih moinawk boih, van ih tavaanawk boih to khetzawn moe, ahmin phui hanah, Adam khaeah sinh pae; kahing moi loe, Adam mah sak ih ahmin baktih toengah ahmin tawnh o boih.
Out of the ground Adonai 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.
20 Adam mah moinawk, van ih tavaanawk hoi taw ih moinawk boih to ahmin sak; toe Adam loe angmah hoi kamcuk bomkung to tawn ai.
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 suitable for him.
21 Angraeng Sithaw mah Adam to iih angmuetsak parai pongah, anih loe iih; anih ih panak huh maeto a lak pae, a lak ih ahmuen ah ngan to pacong pae let.
Adonai 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.
22 Angraeng Sithaw mah kami khae hoi lak ih, panak huh hoiah nongpata to sak moe, anih to nongpa khaeah a caeh haih.
Adonai God refined and fashioned an 'ishah ·wife woman· from the rib which had taken from the man, and brought her to the man.
23 Adam mah, Hae loe ka huhnawk thung ih ahuh, ka ngan thung ih ngan ah oh; anih loe Nongpa thung hoiah lak ah oh pongah, Nongpata, tiah kawk han oh, tiah thuih.
The man said, “This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called ‘'ishah ·wife woman·,’ because she was taken out of 'ish ·husband man·.”
24 To pongah nongpa mah ampa hoi amno to caehtaak ueloe, a zu to la tih, to naah nihnik loe takpum maeto ah om hoi tih.
Therefore a husband man will leave his father and his mother, and will dabak ·cling to, worship· with his wife woman, and they will be echad ·one· flesh.
25 Nongpa hoi a zu loe bangkrai ah oh hoi, toe azathaih tawn hoi ai.
The husband man and his wife woman were both naked, and they were not ashamed.
