1 Te tlam te vaan rhoek khaw, diklai khaw, amih kah caempuei boeih khaw a coeng.
And the heaven and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
2 Pathen loh amah kah a bi saii te hnin rhih neh a coeng tih a hnin rhih vaengah a bibi saii boeih te a duem tak.
And on the seventh day God finished His work which He had made; and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made.
3 Te phoeiah Pathen loh a rhih khohnin te yoethen a paek tih te te a ciim. Te vaengah Pathen tah saii ham a suen a bibi boeih lamloh duem.
And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it; because that in it He rested from all His work which God in creating had made.
4 He tah BOEIPA Pathen loh diklai neh vaan a saii tue ah a suen vaan neh diklai kah a rhuirhong ni.
These are the generations of the heaven and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made earth and heaven.
5 Te vaengah BOEIPA Pathen loh diklai la kho a tlan sak hlan dongah kohong kah tangpuem boeih khaw diklai ah poe hlan. Te dongah lohma kah baelhing boeih daih hlan tih lo tawn ham hlang ana om pawh.
No shrub 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 upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground;
6 Tedae diklai lamkah tuihu ha thoeng tih diklai hman boeih a suep.
but there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
7 Te phoeiah BOEIPA Pathen loh diklai lamkah laipi te hlang la a hlinsai. Te phoeiah hingnah hiil te a hnarhong ah a ueng pah tih aka hing tongpa hinglu la coeng.
Then the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
8 Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh khothoeng kah Eden ah dum a hlo tih a hlang saii te a khueh.
And the LORD God planted a garden eastward, in Eden; and there He put the man whom He had formed.
9 BOEIPA Pathen loh diklai lamkah thing mueimae then neh caak then boeih te a poe sak tih dum kah laklung ah hingnah thing neh a thae a then mingnah thing om.
And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10 Te vaengah dum aka suep ham Eden lamkah tuiva long tih te lamkah a phih uh vaengah tuisae pali la coeng.
And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became four heads.
11 Lamhma kah a ming tah Pishon tih sui aka om Havilah khohmuen tom la a ken.
The name of the first is Pishon; that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
12 Te khohmuen kah sui tah then tih thingpi neh oitha lungto khaw pahoi om.
and the gold of that land is good; there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
13 Te phoeiah tuiva pabae kah a ming tah Khusah khohmuen boeih aka hil Gihon ni.
And the name of the second river is Gihon; the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Cush.
14 Te phoeiah tuiva a pathum kah ming tah khothoeng Assyria la aka long Khiddekel ni. Tuiva a pali nah tetah Perath ni.
And the name of the third river is Tigris; that is it which goeth toward the east of Asshur. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.
15 Te phoeiah BOEIPA Pathen loh hlang te a loh tih Eden dum ah thotat ham neh dum aka hung ham a khueh.
And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
16 Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh hlang taengah a uen tih, “Dum kah thingkung boeih te caak la ca.
And the LORD God commanded the man, saying: 'Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat;
17 Tedae a then neh a thae mingnah thingkung lamkah te ca boeh. Te te na caak hnin vaeng lamloh na duek rhoe na duek ni,” a ti nah.
but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it; for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.'
18 Te vaengah BOEIPA Pathen loh, “Hlang he amah bueng tah om ham then pawh anih ham amah neh a naii uh la bomkung ka saii ni,” a ti.
And the LORD God said: 'It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a help meet for him.'
19 Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh diklai lamkah, a hlin a sai kohong mulhing boeih neh vaan kah vaa boeih soah metla a khue te hmuh ham khaw, hlang loh a khue boeih te tah mulhing hinglu ming la om sak ham khaw, hlang taengla a khuen.
And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto the man to see what he would call them; and whatsoever the man would call every living creature, that was to be the name thereof.
20 Te dongah hlang loh rhamsa boeih khaw, vaan kah vaa te khaw, kohong kah mulhing khaw, ming a paek dae Adam neh aka tiing la bomkung hmu pawh.
And the man gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found a help meet for him.
21 Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh tongpa te muelh a ih sak. A ih vaengah a vaerhuh pakhat te a loh pah phoeiah a pumsa kah a hma te tloep a saibawn sak.
And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the place with flesh instead thereof.
22 Te phoeiah BOEIPA Pathen loh tongpa lamkah a loh vaerhuh te huta la a saii tih tongpa taengla a khuen.
And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from the man, made He a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23 Te vaengah tongpa loh, “Tahae kah he ka rhuh lamkah ka rhuh, ka saa lamkah ka saa ni. Anih he tongpa lamkah a loh dongah huta tila ka khue ni,” a ti
And the man said: 'This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.'
24 Te dongah tongpa loh a napa neh a manu te a toeng ni. Te phoeiah a yuu taengla khoem uh vetih pumsa pakhat la om rhoi ni.
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife, and they shall be one flesh.
25 Te vaengah tongpa neh a yuu tah pumtling la om rhoi dae yak rhoi pawh.
And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
