+ Genesis 1 >

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Kar chakruok Nyasaye nochweyo polo gi piny.
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.
Koro piny ne onge kido kendo ne onge gimoro amora e iye. Mudho mandiwa noimo ataro mangʼongo kendo Roho mar Nyasaye ne wuotho ewi atarono.
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
Eka Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Ler mondo obedie,” mi ler nobetie.
4 And God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness.
Nyasaye noneno ni ler ber, kendo ne opogo ler kuom mudho.
5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness He called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
Nyasaye noluongo ler ni “odiechiengʼ” kendo mudho noluongo ni “otieno.” Piny noyuso, kendo noru ma en chiengʼ mokwongo.
6 And God said, “Let there be an expanse between the waters, to separate the waters from the waters.”
Eka Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Gima pogo pi mondo obedie mondo opog pi gi pige.”
7 So God made the expanse and separated the waters beneath it from the waters above. And it was so.
Omiyo Nyasaye noketo gima pogo pi mamalo gi pi ma piny. Kendo nobedo kamano.
8 God called the expanse “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.
Nyasaye noluongo gima nopogo pigno ni “polo.” Piny noyuso kendo noru, ma en chiengʼ mar ariyo.
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.
Kendo Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Pi manie bwo polo mondo ochokre kaachiel, kendo lowo motwo obedie.” Kendo notimore kamano.
10 God called the dry land “earth,” and the gathering of waters He called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.
Nyasaye nochako lowo ni “piny” kendo pige mane ochokore nochako ni “nembe.” Kendo Nyasaye noneno ni mano ber.
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.
Eka Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Buya nyaka nyag e piny, kothe manyago cham kod yiende manyago olembe man-gi kuthe eigi kaka kitgi obet kendo nobedo kamano.
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.
Buya nonyak e piny: Cham nonywolo kothegi kaka kitgi nobet kendo yiende nonywolo olembe man-gi kodhi kaka kitgi nobet. Kendo Nyasaye noneno ni mano ber.
13 And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.
Piny noyuso kendo noru, ma en chiengʼ mar adek.”
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.
Bangʼe Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Ler mondo obedie e kor polo mondo opog odiechiengʼ gi otieno, kendo gibed kaka ranyisi mag lokruok ndalo kod odiechienge, kod higni,
15 And let them serve as lights in the expanse of the sky to shine upon the earth.” And it was so.
kendo ginibedi ler mae kor polo mondo gi chiw ler e piny.” Kendo nobedo kamano.
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.
Nyasaye noloso gik moko ariyo madongo makelo ler; ler maduongʼ ne rito odiechiengʼ, to ler matin ne rito otieno. Sulwe bende noloso.
17 God set these lights in the expanse of the sky to shine upon the earth,
Nyasaye noketogi e kor polo mondo gi chiw ler e piny,
18 to preside over the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
mondo girit odiechiengʼ gotieno, kendo gipog ler koa kuom mudho. Nyasaye noneno ni mano ber.
19 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.
Piny noyuso kendo noru, ma en chiengʼ mar angʼwen.
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.”
Kendo Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Pi mondo opongʼ gi gik mangima, kendo winy mondo ofu ewi piny e kor polo.”
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.
Kamano Nyasaye nochweyo gik madongo mag nam kod gik mangima duto kod gik malak mag pi, kaka kitgi obet kod winy duto man-gi bwombegi kaka kitgi obet. Nyasaye noneno ni mano ber.
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.”
Nyasaye nogwedhogi kendo owacho niya, “Nywolreuru kendo umedru kuom kwan kendo upongʼ pi mag nembe kendo winy bende omedre e piny.”
23 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day.
Kendo piny noyuso, kendo noru, ma en chiengʼ mar abich.
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.
Kendo Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Piny mondo onywol gik mangima kaka kitgi obet: Jamni, kod gik moko duto mamol e lowo, kod le mag bungu, mana kaka kit moro ka moro obet.” Kendo nobet kamano.
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.
Nyasaye noloso le mag bungu kaka kitgi obet; jamni kaka kitgi obet kendo gi gik mamol e lowo kaka kitgi obet. Nyasaye noneno ni mano ber.
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.”
Eka Nyasaye nowacho niya, “We wachwe dhano e kido machal kodwa kendo gibed gi teko ewi rech mae nam kendo gi winy mae kor polo, ewi jamni, ewi piny duto kendo ewi chwech duto mawuotho ewi lowo.”
27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.
Kuom mano Nyasaye nochweyo dhano e kite owuon, e kit Nyasaye nochweye; nochweyogi dichwo gi dhako.
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.”
Nyasaye nogwedhogi mi owachonegi niya, “Nywolreuru kendo kwanu omedre; pongʼuru piny kendo urite. Beduru gi teko ewi rech ma e nam kod winy mae kor polo kendo ewi gik mangima duto mawuotho ewi lowo.”
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.
Eka Nyasaye nowacho niya, “Amiyou kothe duto manyago cham e wangʼ piny duto kod yiende duto man kod olemo gi kodhi eigi. Ginibed magu kuom chiemo.
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.
To ne le duto mag piny kod winy duto mafuyo e kor polo kod gik moko duto mawuotho e piny, gimoro amora mangima; amiyo lum duto mondo obed chiembgi.” Kendo nobedo kamano.
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.
Nyasaye nongʼiyo gik moko duto mane osechweyo kendo noneno ni gibeyo ahinya. Piny noyuso kendo noru, ma en chiengʼ mar auchiel.
