< Genesis 5 >

1 This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day when God made man, he made him in the image of God;
Tala lisolo ya libota ya Adamu. Tango Nzambe akelaki bato, asalaki bango na elilingi ya Nzambe.
2 Male and female he made them, naming them Man, and giving them his blessing on the day when they were made.
Akelaki bango mobali mpe mwasi, mpe apambolaki bango. Na mokolo oyo akelaki bango, apesaki bango kombo « bato. »
3 Adam had been living for a hundred and thirty years when he had a son like himself, after his image, and gave him the name of Seth:
Tango Adamu akokisaki mibu nkama moko na tuku misato ya mbotama, abotaki mwana mobali na elilingi na ye mpe na lolenge na ye. Apesaki ye kombo « Seti. »
4 And after the birth of Seth, Adam went on living for eight hundred years, and had sons and daughters:
Sima na mbotama ya Seti, Adamu awumelaki lisusu na bomoi mibu nkama mwambe mpe abotaki bana mosusu ya mibali mpe ya basi.
