Genesis 1
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Fefeu na, Lamatualain naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ lalai no raefafoꞌ a.
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.
Leleꞌ naa, raefafoꞌ a nda feꞌe dadꞌi sa, ma basaꞌ e feꞌe runggu-ranggaꞌ. Feꞌe akaꞌ a, oeꞌ ma maꞌahatuꞌ a tatana nala e. Lamatualain Dula-dale Na laa-laa sia oeꞌ ata.
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
Boe ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ nae, “Manggareloꞌ dadꞌi.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, manggareloꞌ a dadꞌi tuteꞌ a.
4 And God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness.
Ana nita manggareloꞌ a ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa, maloleꞌ. Basa de, Ana tadꞌa manggareloꞌ mia hatuꞌ a, de esa-esaꞌ no fai na.
5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness He called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
Ana babꞌae manggareloꞌ a ‘rereloꞌ’, ma hatuꞌ a, ‘tetembaꞌ’. Naa, fai kaesa na.
6 And God said, “Let there be an expanse between the waters, to separate the waters from the waters.”
Basa ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, “Mamana rouꞌ sa dadꞌi, fo tadꞌa oeꞌ a. Naa fo, hambu oeꞌ sia ataꞌ, ma sia raeꞌ boe.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, oeꞌ a banggi neu rua tuteꞌ a.
7 So God made the expanse and separated the waters beneath it from the waters above. And it was so.
8 God called the expanse “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.
Ana babꞌae oeꞌ mana sia ataꞌ a, ‘lalai’. Naa, fai karua na.
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.
Basa ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Oe mana sia raeꞌ a musi naꞌabꞌue neu mamanaꞌ esa, fo hambu rae madꞌa.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, rae madꞌa a dadꞌi tuteꞌ a.
10 God called the dry land “earth,” and the gathering of waters He called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.
Ana babꞌae rae madꞌa a, ‘madꞌa ata’; ma oe mana maꞌabꞌueꞌ a, ‘tasiꞌ’. Ana nita basa naa ra ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa ra, memaꞌ maloleꞌ.
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.
Boe ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Hau-hau musi mori sia madꞌaꞌ ata. Musi hambu hau mabꞌoaꞌ, madekeꞌ, ma maroo modꞌoꞌ. Naa fo, hau ra esa-esaꞌ mbule-bꞌoa na tungga mata na.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, basa hau ra dadꞌi tuteꞌ a.
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.
Ma hau naa ra mbule-bꞌoa nara esa-esaꞌ tungga mata na, losa rasofe madꞌaꞌ ata. Ana nita basa naa ra ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa ra, memaꞌ maloleꞌ.
13 And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.
Naa, fai katelu na.
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.
Boe ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Sia ataꞌ musi hambu manggareloꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ fo raronda neu raefafoꞌ ia. Musi hambu mana fee manggareloꞌ neu fai rereloꞌ, ma mana fee manggareloꞌ neu fai tetembaꞌ. Basa naa ra, dadꞌi tatandaꞌ fo bisa reken fai, too, no fula-fai.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, manggareloꞌ ra dadꞌi tuteꞌ a.
15 And let them serve as lights in the expanse of the sky to shine upon the earth.” And it was so.
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.
Ana tao manggarelo monaeꞌ mataꞌ rua. Manggarelo monaeꞌ a naronda rereloꞌ ma manggarelo anadikiꞌ a naronda tetembaꞌ. Ana o tao nduuꞌ ra boe.
17 God set these lights in the expanse of the sky to shine upon the earth,
Ma Ana ator basa naa ra sia lalai, fo raronda neu raefafoꞌ a.
18 to preside over the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
De ara fee manggareloꞌ neu rereloꞌ ma tetembaꞌ. No taꞌo naa, ara tadꞌa manggareloꞌ mia hatuꞌ a. Ana nita basa naa ra ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa ra, memaꞌ maloleꞌ.
19 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.
Naa, fai kahaa na.
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.”
Basa ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Banda mataꞌ-mataꞌ musi rasodꞌa sia oeꞌ rala. Ma mbuiꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ musi ratambembele sia raefafoꞌ ata.”
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.
Boe ma Ana naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ basa uꞌu mataꞌ-mataꞌ no banda monaeꞌ mana rasodꞌa sia oeꞌ. Ana o naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ mbuiꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ fo ratambembele sia lalai. Ana nita basa naa ra ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa ra, memaꞌ maloleꞌ.
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.”
Basa ma Ana olaꞌ fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu basa banda ra nae, “Uꞌu ra musi ramaheta, fo rasofe oeꞌ a sia bee-bꞌee. Ma mbuiꞌ ra o musi ramaheta boe.”
23 And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day.
Naa, fai kalima na.
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.
Basa ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Banda mataꞌ-mataꞌ musi rasodꞌa sia madꞌaꞌ ata. Musi hambu banda neꞌebꞌoiꞌ, banda fui, ma banda mana nodꞌoꞌ sia rae, esa-esaꞌ no mata na.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, basa se dadꞌi tuteꞌ a. Ana nita basa se ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa ra, memaꞌ maloleꞌ.
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.
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.”
Basa ma Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Ima fo Ata tao atahori tungga onaꞌ Hita boe. Naa fo, ara tao mataꞌ neu uꞌu ra sia tasi, mbuiꞌ ra sia lalai, banda neꞌeboiꞌ ra, ma basa banda feaꞌ mana masodꞌa sia raefafoꞌ a.”
27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.
Boe ma Ana naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ atahori onaꞌ mata ao Na boe. Ana naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ se, touꞌ no inaꞌ.
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.”
Ma Ana olaꞌ fee se papala-babꞌanggiꞌ nae, “Hei musi bꞌonggi mimihefu, fo misofe raefafoꞌ ia, ma tao mataꞌ neu e. Au o fee hei koasa fo tao mataꞌ neu uꞌu ra, mbuiꞌ ra, ma basa banda madꞌaꞌ ata ra.
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.
Rena malolole! Au fee hei nanaat mataꞌ-mataꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia. Au fee hau mabꞌoaꞌ, madekeꞌ, ma maroo modꞌoꞌ ra.
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.
Au o fee basa hau mataꞌ-mataꞌ, fo dadꞌi basa banda ra nanaat na. Nanaat soaꞌ neu banda neꞌeboiꞌ, banda fui, banda mana nodꞌoꞌ, ma mbuiꞌ ra.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, basa nanaat mataꞌ-mataꞌ dadꞌi tuteꞌ a.
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.
Ana nita basa naa ra ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa ra, memaꞌ maloleꞌ. Naa, fai kanee na.
