Genesis 2
1 And the heavens and the earth and all their host were finished.
Ezalaki bongo nde likolo mpe mokili ekelamaki elongo na biloko nyonso oyo ezali kati na yango.
2 And God had finished on the seventh day his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
Na mokolo ya sambo, Nzambe asilisaki mosala oyo asalaki. Boye, na mokolo ya sambo, akataki mosala nyonso oyo azalaki kosala.
3 And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it, because that on it he rested from all his work which God had created in making it.
Nzambe apambolaki mokolo ya sambo, abulisaki yango, pamba te na mokolo yango nde akataki mosala nyonso ya kokela oyo azalaki kosala.
4 These are the histories of the heavens and the earth, when they were created, in the day that Jehovah Elohim made earth and heavens,
Tala ndenge likolo mpe mokili elongo na biloko oyo ezali kati na yango ezalaki tango ekelamaki. Tango Yawe Nzambe akelaki mokili mpe likolo,
5 and every shrub of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew; for Jehovah Elohim had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to till the ground.
ata nzete moko te ya elanga ezalaki, mpe ata molona moko te ya elanga etikalaki kobimisa moto, pamba te Yawe Nzambe anokisaki nanu mvula te na mokili, mpe moto azalaki te mpo na kolona yango na mabele.
6 But a mist went up from the earth, and moistened the whole surface of the ground.
Kasi mayi ezalaki kobima wuta na se mpe ezalaki kopanzana na etando nyonso ya mokili.
7 And Jehovah Elohim formed Man, dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and Man became a living soul.
Yawe Nzambe asalaki moto wuta na putulu ya mabele, afulaki pema ya bomoi na madusu ya zolo na ye; mpe moto akomaki ekelamu ya bomoi.
8 And Jehovah Elohim planted a garden in Eden eastward, and there put Man whom he had formed.
Yawe Nzambe alonaki elanga moko kati na Edeni, na ngambo ya este. Atiaki moto oyo akelaki kati na yango.
9 And out of the ground Jehovah Elohim made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; and the tree of life, in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Yawe Nzambe abimisaki wuta na mabele banzete ya lolenge nyonso oyo ezalaki kitoko mpo na kotala mpe elengi mpo na kolia. Atiaki mpe nzete ya bomoi na kati-kati ya elanga; lisusu atiaki nzete ya koyeba malamu mpe mabe.
10 And a river went out of Eden, to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became four main streams.
Ebale moko ezalaki kobima na Edeni mpe ezalaki kosopa mayi na elanga. Mayi ya ebale yango ekabwanaki na biteni minei.
11 The name of the one is Pison: that is it which surrounds the whole land of Havilah, where the gold is.
Eteni ya liboso, kombo na yango « Pishoni. » Yango ezingeli mokili mobimba ya Avila oyo mabele na yango ezalaki na wolo.
12 And the gold of that land is good; bdellium and the onyx stone are there.
Wolo ya mokili yango ezalaki kitoko. Ezalaki lisusu na molona ya malasi mpe na mabanga ya onikisi kati na mokili yango.
13 And the name of the second river is Gihon: that is it which surrounds the whole land of Cush.
Eteni ya mibale, kombo na yango « Giyoni. » Yango ezingeli mokili mobimba ya Kushi.
14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which flows forward toward Asshur. And the fourth river, that is Euphrates.
Eteni ya misato, kombo na yango « Tigre. » Yango elekana na este ya Asiri. Mpe eteni ya minei, kombo na yango « Efrate. »
15 And Jehovah Elohim took Man, and put him into the garden of Eden, to till it and to guard it.
Yawe Nzambe azwaki moto mpe atiaki ye kati na elanga ya Edeni mpo na kolona yango mpe kobatela yango.
16 And Jehovah Elohim commanded Man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou shalt freely eat;
Mpe Yawe Nzambe apesaki mitindo oyo na moto: « Okoki kolia mbuma nyonso ya elanga,
17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it; for in the day that thou eatest of it thou shalt certainly die.
kasi okolia te mbuma ya nzete ya koyeba malamu mpe mabe; pamba te mokolo oyo okolia yango, okokufa solo. »
18 And Jehovah Elohim said, It is not good that Man should be alone; I will make him a helpmate, his like.
Yawe Nzambe alobaki: « Ezali malamu te ete mobali azala ye moko; nakosalela ye mosungi oyo azali ndenge moko na ye. »
19 And out of the ground Jehovah Elohim had formed every animal of the field and all fowl of the heavens, and brought [them] to Man, to see what he would call them; and whatever Man called each living soul, that was its name.
Yawe Nzambe asalaki, wuta na mabele, banyama nyonso ya zamba mpe bandeke nyonso ya likolo. Amemaki yango epai ya mobali mpo na kotala ndenge akopesa yango kombo, mpo ete ekelamu nyonso ya bomoi ebengama na kombo oyo mobali akopesa yango.
20 And Man gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the heavens, and to every beast of the field; but as for Adam, he found no helpmate, his like.
Yango wana, mobali apesaki bakombo na bibwele nyonso, na bandeke nyonso ya likolo mpe na banyama nyonso ya zamba. Kasi amonaki te mosungi oyo akokaki kozala ndenge moko na ye.
21 And Jehovah Elohim caused a deep sleep to fall upon Man; and he slept. And he took one of his ribs and closed up flesh in its stead.
Na yango, Yawe Nzambe alalisaki mobali pongi ya makasi. Mpe wana mobali azalaki kolala, Yawe Nzambe azwaki mokuwa moko na mopanzi ya mobali mpe azipaki mosuni na esika yango.
22 And Jehovah Elohim built the rib that he had taken from Man into a woman; and brought her to Man.
Yawe Nzambe asalaki mwasi na mokuwa oyo azwaki na mopanzi ya mobali mpe amemaki ye epai ya mobali.
23 And Man said, This time it is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh: this shall be called Woman, because this was taken out of a man.
Boye, mobali alobaki: « Tala na mbala oyo, oyo azali mokuwa ya mikuwa na ngai, mosuni ya mosuni na ngai. Bakobenga ye mwasi, pamba te awuti na mobali. »
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and cleave to his wife; and they shall become one flesh.
Yango wana, mobali akotika tata na ye mpe mama na ye, akosangana na mwasi na ye, mpe bakokoma nzoto moko.
25 And they were both naked, Man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
Mobali mpe mwasi na ye bazalaki bolumbu mpe bazalaki koyokana soni te.
