Genesis 2
1 And the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
Ezalaki bongo nde likolo mpe mokili ekelamaki elongo na biloko nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango.
2 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.
Na mokolo ya sambo, Nzambe asilisaki mosala oyo asalaki. Boye, na mokolo ya sambo, akataki mosala nyonso oyo azalaki kosala.
3 And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it, because in it he rested from all his work which God had created and made.
Nzambe apambolaki mokolo ya sambo, abulisaki yango, pamba te na mokolo yango nde akataki mosala nyonso ya kokela oyo azalaki kosala.
4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that Jehovah God made earth and heaven.
Tala ndenge likolo mpe mokili elongo na biloko oyo ezali kati na yango ezalaki tango ekelamaki. Tango Yawe Nzambe akelaki mokili mpe likolo,
5 And no plant of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up, for Jehovah God had not caused it to rain upon the earth. And there was not a man to till the ground,
ata nzete moko te ya elanga ezalaki, mpe ata molona moko te ya elanga etikalaki kobimisa moto, pamba te Yawe Nzambe anokisaki nanu mvula te na mokili, mpe moto azalaki te mpo na kolona yango na mabele.
6 but there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
Kasi mayi ezalaki kobima wuta na se mpe ezalaki kopanzana na etando nyonso ya mokili.
7 And Jehovah God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul.
Yawe Nzambe asalaki moto wuta na putulu ya mabele, afulaki pema ya bomoi na madusu ya zolo na ye; mpe moto akomaki ekelamu ya bomoi.
8 And Jehovah God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed.
Yawe Nzambe alonaki elanga moko kati na Edeni, na ngambo ya este. Atiaki moto oyo akelaki kati na yango.
9 And out of the ground Jehovah God made to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, also the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Yawe Nzambe abimisaki wuta na mabele banzete ya lolenge nyonso oyo ezalaki kitoko mpo na kotala mpe elengi mpo na kolia. Atiaki mpe nzete ya bomoi na kati-kati ya elanga; lisusu atiaki nzete ya koyeba malamu mpe mabe.
10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it was divided, and became four heads.
Ebale moko ezalaki kobima na Edeni mpe ezalaki kosopa mayi na elanga. Mayi ya ebale yango ekabwanaki na biteni minei.
11 The name of the first is Pishon. That is it which encompasses the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.
Eteni ya liboso, kombo na yango « Pishoni. » Yango ezingeli mokili mobimba ya Avila oyo mabele na yango ezalaki na wolo.
12 And the gold of that land is good. There is bdellium and the onyx stone.
Wolo ya mokili yango ezalaki kitoko. Ezalaki lisusu na molona ya malasi mpe na mabanga ya onikisi kati na mokili yango.
13 And the name of the second river is Gihon. The same is it which encompasses the whole land of Cush.
Eteni ya mibale, kombo na yango « Giyoni. » Yango ezingeli mokili mobimba ya Kushi.
14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel. That is it which goes in front of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.
Eteni ya misato, kombo na yango « Tigre. » Yango elekana na este ya Asiri. Mpe eteni ya minei, kombo na yango « Efrate. »
15 And Jehovah God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
Yawe Nzambe azwaki moto mpe atiaki ye kati na elanga ya Edeni mpo na kolona yango mpe kobatela yango.
16 And Jehovah God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou may freely eat,
Mpe Yawe Nzambe apesaki mitindo oyo na moto: « Okoki kolia mbuma nyonso ya elanga,
17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shall not eat of it. For in the day that thou eat of it thou shall surely die.
kasi okolia te mbuma ya nzete ya koyeba malamu mpe mabe; pamba te mokolo oyo okolia yango, okokufa solo. »
18 And Jehovah God said, It is not good that the man should be alone, I will make a help meet for him.
Yawe Nzambe alobaki: « Ezali malamu te ete mobali azala ye moko; nakosalela ye mosungi oyo azali ndenge moko na ye. »
19 And out of the ground Jehovah God formed every beast of the field, and every bird of the heavens, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them, and whatever the man called every living creature, that was the name of it.
Yawe Nzambe asalaki, wuta na mabele, banyama nyonso ya zamba mpe bandeke nyonso ya likolo. Amemaki yango epai ya mobali mpo na kotala ndenge akopesa yango kombo, mpo ete ekelamu nyonso ya bomoi ebengama na kombo oyo mobali akopesa yango.
20 And the man gave names to all cattle, and to the birds of the heavens, and to every beast of the field, but for man there was not found a help meet for him.
Yango wana, mobali apesaki bakombo na bibwele nyonso, na bandeke nyonso ya likolo mpe na banyama nyonso ya zamba. Kasi amonaki te mosungi oyo akokaki kozala ndenge moko na ye.
21 And Jehovah God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept. And God took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in place of it.
Na yango, Yawe Nzambe alalisaki mobali pongi ya makasi. Mpe wana mobali azalaki kolala, Yawe Nzambe azwaki mokuwa moko na mopanzi ya mobali mpe azipaki mosuni na esika yango.
22 And the rib, which Jehovah God had taken from the man, he made a woman, and brought her to the man.
Yawe Nzambe asalaki mwasi na mokuwa oyo azwaki na mopanzi ya mobali mpe amemaki ye epai ya mobali.
23 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.
Boye, mobali alobaki: « Tala na mbala oyo, oyo azali mokuwa ya mikuwa na ngai, mosuni ya mosuni na ngai. Bakobenga ye mwasi, pamba te awuti na mobali. »
24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cling to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh.
Yango wana, mobali akotika tata na ye mpe mama na ye, akosangana na mwasi na ye, mpe bakokoma nzoto moko.
25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
Mobali mpe mwasi na ye bazalaki bolumbu mpe bazalaki koyokana soni te.
