1 Mosebog 1
1 I Begyndelsen skabte Gud Himmelen og Jorden.
In the beginning God created the heauen and the earth.
2 Og Jorden var øde og tom, og der var Mørke over Verdensdybet. Men Guds Aand svævede over Vandene.
And the earth was without forme and void, and darkenesse was vpon the deepe, and the Spirit of God mooued vpon the waters.
3 Og Gud sagde: »Der blive Lys!« Og der blev Lys.
Then God said, Let there be light: And there was light.
4 Og Gud saa, at Lyset var godt, og Gud satte Skel mellem Lyset og Mørket,
And God saw the light that it was good, and God separated the light from the darkenes.
5 og Gud kaldte Lyset Dag, og Mørket kaldte han Nat. Og det blev Aften, og det blev Morgen, første Dag.
And God called the Light, Day, and the darkenes, he called Night. So the euening and the morning were the first day.
6 Derpaa sagde Gud: »Der blive en Hvælving midt i Vandene til at skille Vandene ad!«
Againe God said, Let there be a firmament in the mids of the waters: and let it separate the waters from the waters.
7 Og saaledes skete det: Gud gjorde Hvælvingen og skilte Vandet under Hvælvingen fra Vandet over Hvælvingen;
Then God made the firmament, and separated the waters, which were vnder the firmament, from the waters which were aboue the firmament: and it was so.
8 og Gud kaldte Hvælvingen Himmel. Og det blev Aften, og det blev Morgen, anden Dag.
And God called the firmament Heauen. So the Euening and the morning were the second day.
9 Derpaa sagde Gud: »Vandet under Himmelen samle sig paa eet Sted, saa det faste Land kommer til Syne!« Og saaledes skete det;
God said againe, Let the waters vnder the heauen be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appeare. and it was so.
10 og Gud kaldte det faste Land Jord, og Stedet, hvor Vandet samlede sig, kaldte han Hav. Og Gud saa, at det var godt.
And God called the dry land, Earth, and he called the gathering together of the waters, Seas: and God saw that it was good.
11 Derpaa sagde Gud: »Jorden lade fremspire grønne Urter, der bærer Frø, og Frugttræer, der bærer Frugt med Kærne, paa Jorden!« Og saaledes skete det:
Then God said, Let the earth bud forth the bud of the herbe, that seedeth seed, the fruitfull tree, which beareth fruite according to his kinde, which hath his seede in it selfe vpon the earth: and it was so.
12 Jorden frembragte grønne Urter, der bar Frø, efter deres Arter, og Træer, der bar Frugt med Kærne, efter deres Arter. Og Gud saa, at det var godt.
And the earth brought foorth the bud of the herbe, that seedeth seede according to his kind, also the tree that beareth fruit, which hath his seed in it selfe according to his kinde: and God saw that it was good.
13 Og det blev Aften, og det blev Morgen, tredje Dag.
So the euening and the morning were the third day.
14 Derpaa sagde Gud: »Der komme Lys paa Himmelhvælvingen til at skille Dag fra Nat, og de skal være til Tegn og til Fastsættelse af Højtider, Dage og Aar
And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heauen, to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signes, and for seasons, and for dayes and yeeres.
15 og tjene som Lys paa Himmelhvælvingen til at lyse paa Jorden!« Og saaledes sket det:
And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heauen to giue light vpon the earth: and it was so.
16 Gud gjorde de to store Lys, det største til at herske om Dagen, det mindste til at herske om Natten, og Stjernerne;
God then made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesse light to rule the night: he made also the starres.
17 og Gud satte dem paa Himmelhvælvingen til at lyse paa Jorden
And God set them in the firmament of the heauen, to shine vpon the earth,
18 og til at herske over Dagen og Natten og til at skille Lyset fra Mørket. Og Gud saa, at det var godt.
And to rule in the day, and in the night, and to separate the light from the darkenesse: and God saw that it was good.
19 Og det blev Aften, og det blev Morgen, fjerde Dag.
So the euening and the morning were the fourth day.
20 Derpaa sagde Gud: »Vandet vrimle med en Vrimmel af levende Væsener, og Fugle flyve over Jorden oppe under Himmelhvælvingen!« Og saaledes skete det:
Afterward God said, Let the waters bring foorth in abundance euery creeping thing that hath life: and let the foule flie vpon the earth in the open firmament of the heauen.
21 Gud skabte de store Havdyr og den hele Vrimmel af levende Væsener, som Vandet vrimler med, efter deres Arter, og alle vingede Væsener efter deres Arter. Og Gud saa, at det var godt.
Then God created the great whales, and euery thing liuing and mouing, which the waters brought foorth in abundance according to their kinde, and euery fethered foule according to his kinde: and God sawe that it was good.
22 Og Gud velsignede dem og sagde: »Bliv frugtbare og mangfoldige og opfyld Vandet i Havene, og Fuglene blive mangfoldige paa Jorden!«
Then God blessed them, saying, Bring foorth fruite and multiplie, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the foule multiplie in the earth.
23 Og det blev Aften, og det blev Morgen, femte Dag.
So the euening and the morning were the fifte day.
24 Derpaa sagde Gud: »Jorden frembringe levende Væsener efter deres Arter: Kvæg, Kryb og vildtlevende Dyr efter deres Arter!« Og saaledes skete det:
Moreouer God said, Let the earth bring foorth the liuing thing according to his kinde, cattel, and that which creepeth, and the beast of the earth, according to his kinde. and it was so.
25 Gud gjorde de vildtlevende Dyr efter deres Arter, Kvæget efter dets Arter og alt Jordens Kryb efter dets Arter. Og Gud saa, at det var godt.
And God made the beast of the earth according to his kinde, and the cattell according to his kinde, and euery creeping thing of the earth according to his kind: and God saw that it was good.
26 Derpaa sagde Gud: »Lad os gøre Mennesker i vort Billede, saa de ligner os, til at herske over Havets Fisk og Himmelens Fugle, Kvæget og alle vildtlevende Dyr paa Jorden og alt Kryb, der kryber paa Jorden!«
Furthermore God said, Let vs make man in our image according to our likenes, and let them rule ouer the fish of the sea, and ouer the foule of the heauen, and ouer the beastes, and ouer all the earth, and ouer euery thing that creepeth and moueth on the earth.
27 Og Gud skabte Mennesket i sit Billede; i Guds Billede skabte han det, som Mand og Kvinde skabte han dem;
Thus God created the man in his image: in the image of God created he him: he created them male and female.
28 og Gud velsignede dem, og Gud sagde til dem: »Bliv frugtbare og mangfoldige og opfyld Jorden, gør eder til Herre over den og hersk over Havets Fisk og Himmelens Fugle, Kvæget og alle vildtlevende Dyr, der rører sig paa Jorden!«
And God blessed them, and God said to them, Bring forth fruite and multiplie, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule ouer the fish of the sea, and ouer the foule of the heauen, and ouer euery beast that moueth vpon the earth.
29 Gud sagde fremdeles: »Jeg giver eder alle Urter paa hele Jorden, som bærer Frø, og alle Træer, som bærer Frugt med Kærne; de skal være eder til Føde;
And God said, Beholde, I haue giuen vnto you euery herbe bearing seede, which is vpon al the earth, and euery tree, wherein is the fruite of a tree bearing seede: that shall be to you for meate.
30 men alle Jordens Dyr og alle Himmelens Fugle og alt, hvad der kryber paa Jorden, og som har Livsaande, giver jeg alle grønne Urter til Føde.« Og saaledes skete det.
Likewise to euery beast of the earth, and to euery foule of the heauen, and to euery thing that moueth vpon the earth, which hath life in it selfe, euery greene herbe shall be for meate. and it was so.
31 Og Gud saa alt, hvad han havde gjort, og se, det var saare godt. Og det blev Aften, og det blev Morgen, sjette Dag.
And God sawe all that he had made, and loe, it was very good. So the euening and the morning were the sixt day.
