Genesis 2
1 The heavens, the earth, and all their vast array were finished.
Igitur perfecti sunt caeli et terra, et omnis ornatus eorum.
2 On the seventh day God finished his work which he had done; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done.
Complevitque Deus die septimo opus suum quod fecerat: et requievit die septimo ab universo opere quod patrarat.
3 God blessed the seventh day, and made it holy, because he rested in it from all his work of creation which he had done.
Et benedixit diei septimo; et sanctificavit illum: quia in ipso cessaverat ab omni opere suo quod creavit Deus ut faceret.
4 This is the history of the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens.
Istae sunt generationes caeli et terrae, quando creata sunt, in die quo fecit Dominus Deus caelum et terram:
5 No plant 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 on the earth. There was not a man to till the ground,
Et omne virgultum agri antequam oriretur in terra, omnemque herbam regionis priusquam germinaret: non enim pluerat Dominus Deus super terram, et homo non erat qui operaretur terram:
6 but a mist went up from the earth, and watered the whole surface of the ground.
Sed fons ascendebat e terra, irrigans universam superficiem terrae.
7 The LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Formavit igitur Dominus Deus hominem de limo terrae, et inspiravit in faciem eius spiraculum vitae, et factus est homo in animam viventem.
8 The LORD God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed.
Plantaverat autem Dominus Deus Paradisum voluptatis a principio: in quo posuit hominem quem formaverat.
9 Out of the ground the LORD God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, including the tree of life in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Produxitque Dominus Deus de humo omne lignum pulchrum visu, et ad vescendum suave: lignum etiam vitae in medio paradisi, lignumque scientiae boni et mali.
10 A river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it was parted, and became the source of four rivers.
Et fluvius egrediebatur de loco voluptatis ad irrigandum paradisum, qui inde dividitur in quattuor capita.
11 The name of the first is Pishon: it flows through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
Nomen uni Phison: ipse est qui circuit omnem terram Hevilath, ubi nascitur aurum:
12 and the gold of that land is good. Bdellium and onyx stone are also there.
et aurum terrae illius optimum est: ibique invenitur bdellium, et lapis onychinus.
13 The name of the second river is Gihon. It is the same river that flows through the whole land of Cush.
Et nomen fluvii secundi Gehon: ipse est qui circumit omnem terram Aethiopiae.
14 The name of the third river is Hiddekel. This is the one which flows in front of Assyria. The fourth river is the Euphrates.
Nomen vero fluminis tertii, Tigris: ipse vadit contra Assyrios. Fluvius autem quartus, ipse est Euphrates.
15 The LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it.
Tulit ergo Dominus Deus hominem, et posuit eum in paradisum voluptatis, ut operaretur, et custodiret illum:
16 The LORD God commanded the man, saying, “You may freely eat of every tree of the garden;
Praecepitque ei dicens: Ex omni ligno paradisi comede:
17 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 die.”
De ligno autem scientiae boni et mali ne comedas. in quocumque enim die comederis ex eo, morte morieris.
18 The LORD God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a helper comparable to him.”
Dixit quoque Dominus Deus: Non est bonum esse hominem solum: faciamus ei adiutorium simile sibi.
19 Out of the ground the LORD 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.
Formatis igitur, Dominus Deus, de humo cunctis animantibus terrae, et universis volatilibus caeli, adduxit ea ad Adam, ut videret quid vocaret ea: omne enim quod vocavit Adam animae viventis, ipsum est nomen eius.
20 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 comparable to him.
Appellavitque Adam nominibus suis cuncta animantia, et universa volatilia caeli, et omnes bestias terrae: Adae vero non inveniebatur adiutor similis eius.
21 The LORD 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.
Immisit ergo Dominus Deus soporem in Adam: cumque obdormisset, tulit unam de costis eius, et replevit carnem pro ea.
22 The LORD God made a woman from the rib which he had taken from the man, and brought her to the man.
Et aedificavit Dominus Deus costam, quam tulerat de Adam, in mulierem: et adduxit eam ad Adam.
23 The man said, “This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called ‘woman,’ because she was taken out of Man.”
Dixitque Adam: Hoc nunc, os ex ossibus meis, et caro de carne mea: haec vocabitur Virago, quoniam de viro sumpta est.
24 Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh.
Quamobrem relinquet homo patrem suum, et matrem, et adhaerebit uxori suae: et erunt duo in carne una.
25 The man and his wife were both naked, and they were not ashamed.
Erat autem uterque nudus, Adam scilicet et uxor eius: et non erubescebant.
