Genesis 1
1 At the first God made the heaven and the earth.
Pada mulanya Allah menciptakan langit dan bumi.
2 And the earth was waste and without form; and it was dark on the face of the deep: and the Spirit of God was moving on the face of the waters.
Bumi belum berbentuk dan kosong; gelap gulita menutupi samudera raya, dan Roh Allah melayang-layang di atas permukaan air.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Jadilah terang." Lalu terang itu jadi.
4 And God, looking on the light, saw that it was good: and God made a division between the light and the dark,
Allah melihat bahwa terang itu baik, lalu dipisahkan-Nyalah terang itu dari gelap.
5 Naming the light, Day, and the dark, Night. And there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
Dan Allah menamai terang itu siang, dan gelap itu malam. Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari pertama.
6 And God said, Let there be a solid arch stretching over the waters, parting the waters from the waters.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Jadilah cakrawala di tengah segala air untuk memisahkan air dari air."
7 And God made the arch for a division between the waters which were under the arch and those which were over it: and it was so.
Maka Allah menjadikan cakrawala dan Ia memisahkan air yang ada di bawah cakrawala itu dari air yang ada di atasnya. Dan jadilah demikian.
8 And God gave the arch the name of Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, the second day.
Lalu Allah menamai cakrawala itu langit. Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari kedua.
9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven come together in one place, and let the dry land be seen: and it was so.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Hendaklah segala air yang di bawah langit berkumpul pada satu tempat, sehingga kelihatan yang kering." Dan jadilah demikian.
10 And God gave the dry land the name of Earth; and the waters together in their place were named Seas: and God saw that it was good.
Lalu Allah menamai yang kering itu darat, dan kumpulan air itu dinamai-Nya laut. Allah melihat bahwa semuanya itu baik.
11 And God said, Let grass come up on the earth, and plants producing seed, and fruit-trees giving fruit, in which is their seed, after their sort: and it was so.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Hendaklah tanah menumbuhkan tunas-tunas muda, tumbuh-tumbuhan yang berbiji, segala jenis pohon buah-buahan yang menghasilkan buah yang berbiji, supaya ada tumbuh-tumbuhan di bumi." Dan jadilah demikian.
12 And grass came up on the earth, and every plant producing seed of its sort, and every tree producing fruit, in which is its seed, of its sort: and God saw that it was good.
Tanah itu menumbuhkan tunas-tunas muda, segala jenis tumbuh-tumbuhan yang berbiji dan segala jenis pohon-pohonan yang menghasilkan buah yang berbiji. Allah melihat bahwa semuanya itu baik.
13 And there was evening and there was morning, the third day.
Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari ketiga.
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the arch of heaven, for a division between the day and the night, and let them be for signs, and for marking the changes of the year, and for days and for years:
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Jadilah benda-benda penerang pada cakrawala untuk memisahkan siang dari malam. Biarlah benda-benda penerang itu menjadi tanda yang menunjukkan masa-masa yang tetap dan hari-hari dan tahun-tahun,
15 And let them be for lights in the arch of heaven to give light on the earth: and it was so.
dan sebagai penerang pada cakrawala biarlah benda-benda itu menerangi bumi." Dan jadilah demikian.
16 And God made the two great lights: the greater light to be the ruler of the day, and the smaller light to be the ruler of the night: and he made the stars.
Maka Allah menjadikan kedua benda penerang yang besar itu, yakni yang lebih besar untuk menguasai siang dan yang lebih kecil untuk menguasai malam, dan menjadikan juga bintang-bintang.
17 And God put them in the arch of heaven, to give light on the earth;
Allah menaruh semuanya itu di cakrawala untuk menerangi bumi,
18 To have rule over the day and the night, and for a division between the light and the dark: and God saw that it was good.
dan untuk menguasai siang dan malam, dan untuk memisahkan terang dari gelap. Allah melihat bahwa semuanya itu baik.
19 And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day.
Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari keempat.
20 And God said, Let the waters be full of living things, and let birds be in flight over the earth under the arch of heaven.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Hendaklah dalam air berkeriapan makhluk yang hidup, dan hendaklah burung beterbangan di atas bumi melintasi cakrawala."
21 And God made great sea-beasts, and every sort of living and moving thing with which the waters were full, and every sort of winged bird: and God saw that it was good.
Maka Allah menciptakan binatang-binatang laut yang besar dan segala jenis makhluk hidup yang bergerak, yang berkeriapan dalam air, dan segala jenis burung yang bersayap. Allah melihat bahwa semuanya itu baik.
22 And God gave them his blessing, saying, Be fertile and have increase, making all the waters of the seas full, and let the birds be increased in the earth.
Lalu Allah memberkati semuanya itu, firman-Nya: "Berkembangbiaklah dan bertambah banyaklah serta penuhilah air dalam laut, dan hendaklah burung-burung di bumi bertambah banyak."
23 And there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day.
Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari kelima.
24 And God said, Let the earth give birth to all sorts of living things, cattle and all things moving on the earth, and beasts of the earth after their sort: and it was so.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Hendaklah bumi mengeluarkan segala jenis makhluk yang hidup, ternak dan binatang melata dan segala jenis binatang liar." Dan jadilah demikian.
25 And God made the beast of the earth after its sort, and the cattle after their sort, and everything moving on the face of the earth after its sort: and God saw that it was good.
Allah menjadikan segala jenis binatang liar dan segala jenis ternak dan segala jenis binatang melata di muka bumi. Allah melihat bahwa semuanya itu baik.
26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, like us: and let him have rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over the cattle and over all the earth and over every living thing which goes flat on the earth.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Baiklah Kita menjadikan manusia menurut gambar dan rupa Kita, supaya mereka berkuasa atas ikan-ikan di laut dan burung-burung di udara dan atas ternak dan atas seluruh bumi dan atas segala binatang melata yang merayap di bumi."
27 And God made man in his image, in the image of God he made him: male and female he made them.
Maka Allah menciptakan manusia itu menurut gambar-Nya, menurut gambar Allah diciptakan-Nya dia; laki-laki dan perempuan diciptakan-Nya mereka.
28 And God gave them his blessing and said to them, Be fertile and have increase, and make the earth full and be masters of it; be rulers over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing moving on the earth.
Allah memberkati mereka, lalu Allah berfirman kepada mereka: "Beranakcuculah dan bertambah banyak; penuhilah bumi dan taklukkanlah itu, berkuasalah atas ikan-ikan di laut dan burung-burung di udara dan atas segala binatang yang merayap di bumi."
29 And God said, See, I have given you every plant producing seed, on the face of all the earth, and every tree which has fruit producing seed: they will be for your food:
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Lihatlah, Aku memberikan kepadamu segala tumbuh-tumbuhan yang berbiji di seluruh bumi dan segala pohon-pohonan yang buahnya berbiji; itulah akan menjadi makananmu.
30 And to every beast of the earth and to every bird of the air and every living thing moving on the face of the earth I have given every green plant for food: and it was so.
Tetapi kepada segala binatang di bumi dan segala burung di udara dan segala yang merayap di bumi, yang bernyawa, Kuberikan segala tumbuh-tumbuhan hijau menjadi makanannya." Dan jadilah demikian.
31 And God saw everything which he had made and it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
Maka Allah melihat segala yang dijadikan-Nya itu, sungguh amat baik. Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari keenam.
