< Genesis 2 >

1 And the heavens and the earth were finished, and the whole world of them.
Aa le nifonitse ty tane toy naho o likerañeo naho ty fitozantoza’ iareo.
2 And God finished on the sixth day his works which he made, and he ceased on the seventh day from all his works which he made.
Nifoniren’ Añahare ami’ty andro faha-fito i fitoloña’ey, le nitroatse ami’ty andro faha-fito amo hene tolon-draha nanoe’eo;
3 And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it he ceased from all his works which God began to do.
Le nitahien’ Añahare ty andro faha-fito vaho nimasiñe’e, amy te ama’e ro nitroara’e amy ze nitsenèn’ Añahare iaby, hamokara’e ka.
4 This [is] the book of the generation of heaven and earth, when they were made, in the day in which the Lord God made the heaven and the earth,
Inay ty fanoñonañe o like­rañeo naho ty tane toy amy fañamboarañe iareoy. Tamy sa namboare’ Iehovà Andria­ñahare ty tane toy naho o likerañeoy
5 and every herb of the field before it was on the earth, and all the grass of the field before it sprang up, for God had not rained on the earth, and there was not a man to cultivate it.
naho mbe tsy tan-tane ao ze hataen-kivoke naho taolo’ ty nitiria’ ze ahetse am-patrañe ao, vaho mboe tsy nampahavie’ Iehovà Andria­ñahare orañe ty tane, fa tsy teo ty ondaty hahava i taney;
6 But there rose a fountain out of the earth, and watered the whole face of the earth.
fe niboahan-jono ty tane ze nahatondra-drano ty ambone’ ty tane toy iaby;
7 And God formed the man [of] dust of the earth, and breathed upon his face the breath of life, and the man became a living soul.
le namboare’ Iehovà Andrianañahare ami’ty lembon-tane t’indaty naho nikofo­ha’e tion-kaveloñe o lalam-pian­tsona’eo vaho ninjare fañova veloñe indatiy.
8 And God planted a garden eastward in Edem, and placed there the man whom he had formed.
Le nañalahala goloboñe maniñanañe e Edene ao t’Iehovà Andrianañahare, vaho navotra’e ao indaty namboare’ey.
9 And God made to spring up also out of the earth every tree beautiful to the eye and good for food, and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of learning the knowledge of good and evil.
Le nampitirie’ Iehovà Andrianañahare boak’ an-tane ao ze karazan-katae soa am-pivazohoañe naho mafiry am-pikamañe, le añivo’ i goloboñey ao ty hataen-kaveloñe naho ty hataem-paharendrehañe ty soa naho ty raty.
10 And a river proceeds out of Edem to water the garden, thence it divides itself into four heads.
Nikavavàke boak’ Edene ao ty oñe handeñe i goloboñey, ie boak’ ao le nivaky efatse.
11 The name of the one, Phisom, this it is which encircles the whole land of Evilat, where there is gold.
Pisone ty añara’ ty valoha’e, mañariari’ i hene tane’ Kavilày, ie amam-bolamena;
12 And the gold of that land is good, there also is carbuncle and emerald.
soa ty volamena’ i taney; añe ty bedo­lake naho ty vato antsetra.
13 And the name of the second river is Geon, this it is which encircles the whole land of Ethiopia.
Gihone ty añara’ i oñe faharoe mitsikarioke era’ i tane Kosiy.
14 And the third river is Tigris, this is that which flows forth over against the Assyrians. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
Hidiklà ty añara’ i fahateloy ze miary atiñana’ i Asore; vaho i Perate t’y oñe fah’efatse.
15 And the Lord God took the man whom he had formed, and placed him in the garden of Delight, to cultivate and keep it.
Navotra’ Iehovà Andrianañahare an-Golobo’ i Edene ao indatiy hañalahala naho hañambeñ’ aze.
16 And the Lord God gave a charge to Adam, saying, Of every tree which is in the garden thou mayest freely eat,
Le hoe ty linili’ Iehovà Andrianañahare am’indatiy, Azo’o ikamañe ze hene hatae amy goloboñey ao;
17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil—of it ye shall not eat, but in whatsoever day ye eat of it, ye shall surely die.
fe ko ikamà’o ty hataem-paharendrehañe ty soa naho ty raty, fa toe hivetrake irehe ami’ty andro ikama’o aze.
18 And the Lord God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone, let us make for him a help suitable to him.
Le hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare, Tsy mahasoa indatiy te ho tokañe, hamboarako mpañimba mañeva.
19 And God formed yet farther out of the earth all the wild beasts of the field, and all the birds of the sky, and he brought them to Adam, to see what he would call them, and whatever Adam called any living creature, that was the name of it.
Aa le boak’ amo taneo ty namboare’ Iehovà Andrianañahare ze kila bibin-kivoke, naho ze hene voron-tioke vaho nen­dese’e am’ indatiy hivazoho ze sindre ho tokava’ indatiy aze; aa le ze nitokava’ indatiy ty raha veloñe, le izay ty añara’e.
20 And Adam gave names to all the cattle and to all the birds of the sky, and to all the wild beasts of the field, but for Adam there was not found a help like to himself.
Nimea’ indatiy añarañe ze hene hare naho voron-tioke, vaho ze biby am-patrañe añe iaby; fa naho indatiy, tsy nioniñe ty mpañolotse mañeva aze.
21 And God brought a trance upon Adam, and he slept, and he took one of his ribs, and filled up the flesh instead thereof.
Aa le nampifetsaha’ Iehovà Andria­nañahare am’indatiy ty rotse miheotse, naho ie nirotse le nafaha’e ty pa’e raike vaho nakite’e amy toe’ey ty nofotse.
22 And God formed the rib which he took from Adam into a woman, and brought her to Adam.
Nitsene ampela t’Iehovà Andrianañahare amy rinambe’e añ’ila’ indatiy vaho nasese’e am’indatiy.
23 And Adam said, This now is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called woman, because she was taken out of her husband.
Le hoe indatiy, Itoy henaneo ty taola’ o taolakoo naho ty nofo’ o nofokoo; le hatao Rakemba re amy te lahilahy ro nañakarañe aze.
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
Aa le mienga ty rae’e naho i rene’e t’indaty le mipitek’ ami’ty vali’e vaho nofotse raike iereo.
Ie amy zay, songa nitanjaka indatiy naho i vali’ey fe tsy nimeñatse.
