Genesis 1
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
आदिमा परमेश्वरले आकाशमण्डल र पृथ्वी सृष्टि गर्नुभयो ।
2 Now the earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.
पृथ्वी निराकार र शून्य थियो । समुद्रको सतहमाथि अन्धकार थियो । परमेश्वरका आत्मा सारा समुद्रमाथि परिभ्रमण गर्दै हुनुहुन्थ्यो ।
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “उज्यालो होस्,” र त्यहाँ उज्यालो भयो ।
4 And God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness.
परमेश्वरले उज्यालोलाई हेर्नुभयो, र त्यो असल थियो । उहाँले उज्यालोलाई अन्धकारबाट छुट्ट्याउनुभयो ।
5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness He called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
परमेश्वरले उज्यालोलाई “दिन”, र अन्धकारलाई “रात” भन्नुभयो । साँझ पर्यो र बिहान भयो - पहिलो दिन ।
6 And God said, “Let there be an expanse between the waters, to separate the waters from the waters.”
परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “पानीको बिचमा एउटा क्षेत्र होस्, र त्यसले पानीलाई दुई भागमा विभाजन गरोस् ।”
7 So God made the expanse and separated the waters beneath it from the waters above. And it was so.
परमेश्वरले त्यो क्षेत्र बनाएर त्यसमुनि र माथिको पानीलाई विभाजन गर्नुभयो । तब त्यस्तै भयो ।
8 God called the expanse “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.
परमेश्वरले त्यस क्षेत्रलाई “आकाश” भन्नुभयो । साँझ पर्यो र बिहान भयो - दोस्रो दिन ।
9 And God said, “Let the waters under the sky be gathered into one place, so that the dry land may appear.” And it was so.
परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “आकाशमुनिको जम्मै पानी एक ठाउँमा जम्मा होस्, र ओभानो जमिन देखा परोस् ।” तब त्यस्तै भयो ।
10 God called the dry land “earth,” and the gathering of waters He called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.
परमेश्वरले ओभानो जमिनलाई “पृथ्वी” भन्नुभयो, र जम्मा भएको पानीलाई “समुद्र” भन्नुभयो । उहाँले हेर्नुभयो, र त्यो असल थियो ।
11 Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth vegetation: seed-bearing plants and fruit trees, each bearing fruit with seed according to its kind.” And it was so.
परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “पृथ्वीले आ-आफ्नो प्रजातिअनुसारको वनस्पति, बिउ हुने बोट-बिरुवाहरू र फलभित्रै बिउ हुने फल-फलाउने रुखहरू उमारोस् ।” तब त्यस्तै भयो ।
12 The earth produced vegetation: seed-bearing plants according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
पृथ्वीले वनस्पति, आ-आफ्नो प्रजातिअनुसारका बिउ हुने बोट-बिरुवाहरू र आफ्नै फलभित्र बिउ हुने फल-फलाउने रुखहरू उमार्यो । परमेश्वरले हेर्नुभयो, र त्यो असल थियो ।
13 And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.
साँझ पर्यो र बिहान भयो - तेस्रो दिन ।
14 And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to distinguish between the day and the night, and let them be signs to mark the seasons and days and years.
परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “दिनलाई रातबाट अलग गर्नको निम्ति आकाशमा ज्योतिहरू होऊन् र तिनीहरू ऋतुहरू, दिनहरू र वर्षहरूका निम्ति चिन्हहरू होऊन् ।
15 And let them serve as lights in the expanse of the sky to shine upon the earth.” And it was so.
पृथ्वीमाथि उज्यालो दिनलाई ती आकाशमा ज्योतिहरू होऊन् ।” तब त्यस्तै भयो ।
16 God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night. And He made the stars as well.
परमेश्वरले दुईवटा विशाल ज्योति बनाउनुभयो, ठुलो ज्योतिचाहिँ दिनमाथि प्रभुत्व गर्न, र सानोचाहिँ रातमाथि प्रभुत्व गर्न । उहाँले ताराहरू पनि बनाउनुभयो ।
17 God set these lights in the expanse of the sky to shine upon the earth,
पृथ्वीमाथि उज्यालो दिन, दिन र रातमाथि प्रभुत्व गर्न, र उज्यालोलाई अन्धकारबाट अलग गर्न
18 to preside over the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
परमेश्वरले ती आकाशमा राख्नुभयो । परमेश्वरले हेर्नुभयो, र त्यो असल थियो ।
19 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.
साँझ पर्यो र बिहान भयो - चौथो दिन ।
20 And God said, “Let the waters teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of the sky.”
परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “पानी ठुलो सङ्ख्यामा जीवित प्राणीहरूले भरिऊन्, र पृथ्वीमाथि आकाशमा पक्षीहरू उडून् ।”
21 So God created the great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters teemed according to their kinds, and every bird of flight after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
परमेश्वरले विशाल जलचरहरू, र आ-आफ्नो प्रजातिअनुसारको सबै जीवित प्राणी, चलहल गर्ने र पुरै पानीलाई भर्ने प्राणीहरू, र आ-आफ्नो प्रजातिअनुसारको पखेटा भएका सबै पक्षीहरूलाई सृष्टि गर्नुभयो । परमेश्वरले हेर्नुभयो, र त्यो असल थियो ।
22 Then God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters of the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.”
परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भनेर आशिष् दिनुभयो, “फल्दै-फुल्दै र वृद्धि हुँदै जाओ, र समुद्रमा भरिँदै जाओ । पृथ्वीमा पक्षीहरू वृद्धि होऊन् ।”
23 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day.
साँझ पर्यो र बिहान भयो - पाँचौँ दिन ।
24 And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, land crawlers, and beasts of the earth according to their kinds.” And it was so.
परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “पृथ्वीले आ-आफ्नो प्रजातिअनुसारको जीवित प्राणीहरू, पाल्तु पशुहरू, घस्रने जन्तुहरू, र पृथ्वीका जङ्गली जनावरहरू उत्पन्न गरोस् ।” तब त्यस्तै भयो ।
25 God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and everything that crawls upon the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
परमेश्वरले पृथ्वीका जङ्गली जनावरहरू, पाल्तु पशुहरू, जमिनमा घस्रने सबै जन्तुहरूलाई तिनीहरूकै आ-आफ्नै प्रजातिअनुसार बनाउनुभयो । उहाँले हेर्नुभयो, र त्यो असल थियो ।
26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness, to rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, and over all the earth itself and every creature that crawls upon it.”
परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “मानिसलाई हाम्रो स्वरूपमा, हाम्रो प्रतिरूपमा बनाऔँ । तिनीहरूले समुद्रका माछाहरू, आकाशका पक्षीहरू, पाल्तु पशुहरू, सारा पृथ्वी, र पृथ्वीमा घस्रने सबै जन्तुहरूमाथि अधिकार गरून् ।”
27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.
परमेश्वरले मानिसलाई आफ्नै स्वरूपमा सृष्टि गर्नुभयो । उहाँले तिनलाई आफ्नै प्रतिरूपमा सृष्टि गर्नुभयो । नर र नारी गरी उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई सृष्टि गर्नुभयो ।
28 God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it; rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every creature that crawls upon the earth.”
परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई आशिष्् दिनुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “फल्दै-फुल्दै र वृद्धि हुँदै जाओ । पृथ्वीमा भरिँदै जाओ, र त्यसलाई आफ्नो वशमा राख । समुद्रका माछाहरू, आकाशका पक्षीहरू, र पृथ्वीमा चलहल गर्ने सबै जीवित प्राणीहरूमाथि अधिकार गर ।”
29 Then God said, “Behold, I have given you every seed-bearing plant on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit contains seed. They will be yours for food.
परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “हेर, मैले पृथ्वीका बिउ हुने हरेक बोट-बिरुवाहरू, र फलभित्रै बिउ हुने हरेक फल-फलाउने रुखहरू तिमीहरूलाई दिएको छु । ती तिमीहरूका निम्ति आहारा हुनेछन् ।
30 And to every beast of the earth and every bird of the air and every creature that crawls upon the earth—everything that has the breath of life in it—I have given every green plant for food.” And it was so.
पृथ्वीका हरेक जङ्गली जनवारहरू, आकाशका हरेक पक्षीहरू, र सबै घस्रने जन्तुहरू, र जीवन भएका हरेक प्राणीलाई मैले आहाराको निम्ति सबै हरिया बोट-बिरुवाहरू दिएको छु ।” तब त्यस्तै भयो ।
31 And God looked upon all that He had made, and indeed, it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.
परमेश्वरले आफूले बनाउनुभएका सबै कुरा हेर्नुभयो । त्यो ज्यादै असल थियो । साँझ पर्यो र बिहान भयो - छैटौँ दिन ।
