Genesis 2
1 To tiah van hoi long, to ah kaom hmuennawk boih to a sak pacoeng.
Thus were finished the heavens and the earth and all their host.
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.
Thus God finished, on the seventh day his work which he had made, and rested, on the seventh day, from all his work which he had made.
3 A sak ih tok boih thung hoiah Sithaw anghakhaih niah oh pongah, sarihto ni to Sithaw mah tahamhoihaih paek moe, ciimcaisak.
And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it, —because therein, rested he from all his work which God, by creating, had made.
4 Angraeng Sithaw mah van hoi long sak na niah, van hoi long sakhaih kawngnawk loe hae tiah oh.
These are the geneses of the heavens and the earth when they were created, —in the day when Yahweh God made earth and heavens.
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.
Now, no bush of the field, as yet—was in the earth, and, no herb of the field, as yet had sprung up, —because Yahweh God had not sent rain on the earth, and, man, was there none to till the ground;
6 Toe long thung hoiah tui to tacawt pongah, long to tui mah duksak boih.
but, a vapour, went up from the earth, —and watered all the face 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.
So then Yahweh God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed in his nostrils the breath of life—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.
And Yahweh God planted a garden in Eden, on the east, —and put there 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.
And Yahweh God, caused to spring up, out of the ground, every tree pleasant to the sight and good for food, —and the tree of life, in the midst 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.
Now, a river, was coming forth out of Eden, to water the garden, —and, from thence, it parted, and became four heads,
11 Hmaloe koek ih ahmin loe Pishon; to vapui loe sui ohhaih, Havilah prae thung boih ah longh.
The name of the one, is Pishon, —the same, is that which surroundeth all the land of Havilah, where is gold;
12 To prae thung ih sui loe hoih; to ah loe bdellium hmuihoih thing hoi onyx thlungnawk doeh tacawt.
moreover the gold of that land, is good, —there, is the bdellium, and the beryl stone,
13 Hnetto haih vapui ahmin loe Gihon; to vapui loe Ethiopia prae thung boih ah longh.
And the name of the second river, is Gihon, —the same, is that which surroundeth all the land of Cush,
14 Thumto haih vapui ahmin loe Hiddekel; to loe Assyria prae ni angyae bangah longh. Palito haih vapui loe Euphrates.
And, the name of the third river, is Hiddekel, the same, is that which goeth in front of Assyria; and the fourth river, is Euphrates.
15 Eden takha to khetzawn moe, to ah toksak hanah, Angraeng mah kami to lak moe, takha thungah anih to suek.
So Yahweh God took the man, —and placed him in the garden of Eden, to till it and to keep it.
16 Angraeng Sithaw mah kami khaeah, Takha thungah kaom thingkung hoi tacawt athaihnawk boih to na caak thaih;
And Yahweh God laid command on the man, saying, —Of every tree of the garden, thou mayest eat;
17 toe kasae kahoih panoekhaih thingthai loe na caa mak ai; na caak niah na dueh tangtang tih, tiah lokpaek.
but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it, —for in the day thou eatest thereof, thou shalt die.
18 Angraeng Sithaw mah, Kami loe angmabueng oh han hoih ai; anih han kamcuk bomkung maeto ka sak pae han, tiah thuih.
And Yahweh God said, It is, not good, that the man should remain alone, —I will make for him a helper as his counterpart.
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.
Now Yahweh God had formed from the ground every living thing of the field and every bird of the heavens, which he brought in unto the man, that he might see what he should call it, —and, whatsoever the man should call it—any living soul, that, should be the name thereof.
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.
So the man gave names to all the tame-beasts, and to the birds of the heavens, and to all the wild-beasts of the field, —but, for man, had there not been found a helper as his counterpart.
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.
So Yahweh God caused a deep sleep to fall on the man, and he slept, —and he took one of his ribs, and closed up flesh instead thereof.
22 Angraeng Sithaw mah kami khae hoi lak ih, panak huh hoiah nongpata to sak moe, anih to nongpa khaeah a caeh haih.
And Yahweh God builded the rib which he had taken from the man, into a woman, and brought her in unto 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.
And the man said, This, one, now, is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh! This, one shall be called Woman, for, out of a man, hath this one been taken.
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.
For this cause, will a man leave his father and his mother, and cleave unto his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
25 Nongpa hoi a zu loe bangkrai ah oh hoi, toe azathaih tawn hoi ai.
And they were both of them naked, the man and his wife, —and put not each other to shame.
