Genesis 1
1 In the beginning God created heaven, and earth.
V začetku je Bog ustvaril nebo in zemljo.
2 And the earth was void and empty, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God moved over the waters.
Zemlja pa je bila brez oblike ter prazna in tema je bila na obličju globin in Božji Duh se je premikal na obličju vodá.
3 And God said: Be light made. And light was made.
[1. dan] Bog je rekel: »Naj bo svetloba.« In bila je svetloba.
4 And God saw the light that it was good; and he divided the light from the darkness.
Bog je videl svetlobo, da je bila dobra in Bog je ločil svetlobo od teme.
5 And he called the light Day, and the darkness Night; and there was evening and morning one day.
Bog je svetlobo imenoval Dan, temo pa je imenoval Noč. In večer in jutro sta bila prvi dan.
6 And God said: Let there be a firmament made amidst the waters: and let it divide the waters from the waters.
[2. dan] Bog je rekel: »Naj bo nebesni svod na sredi vodá in naj razdeli vode od vodá.«
7 And God made a firmament, and divided the waters that were under the firmament, from those that were above the firmament, and it was so.
Bog je naredil nebesni svod in razdelil vode, ki so bile pod nebesnim svodom od vodá, ki so bile nad nebesnim svodom. In bilo je tako.
8 And God called the firmament, Heaven; and the evening and morning were the second day.
Bog je nebesni svod imenoval Nebo. In večer in jutro sta bila drugi dan.
9 God also said: Let the waters that are under the heaven, be gathered together into one place: and let the dry land appear. And it was so done.
[3. dan] Bog je rekel: »Naj bodo vode pod nebom zbrane skupaj na en kraj in naj se pojavi kopna zemlja.« In bilo je tako.
10 And God called the dry land, Earth; and the gathering together of the waters, he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
Bog je kopno zemljo imenoval Zemlja, zbiranje skupnih vodá pa je imenoval Morja, in Bog je videl, da je bilo to dobro.
11 And he said: Let the earth bring forth the green herb, and such as may seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after its kind, which may have seed in itself upon the earth. And it was so done.
Bog je rekel: »Naj zemlja rodi travo, zelišče, ki obrodi seme in sadno drevo, ki obrodi sad po svoji vrsti, čigar seme je v njem samem na zemlji.« In bilo je tako.
12 And the earth brought forth the green herb, and such as yieldeth seed according to its kind, and the tree that beareth fruit, having seed each one according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Zemlja je rodila travo in zelišče, ki obrodi seme po svoji vrsti in drevo, ki obrodi sad po svoji vrsti, čigar seme je v njem samem, po njegovi vrsti. In Bog je videl, da je bilo to dobro.
13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
In večer in jutro sta bila tretji dan.
14 And God said: Let there be lights made in the firmament of heaven, to divide the day and the night, and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years:
[4. dan] Bog je rekel: »Naj bodo svetilke na nebesnem svodu neba, da razdelijo dan od noči; in naj bodo za znamenja, za letne dobe, za dneve in leta,
15 To shine in the firmament of heaven, and to give light upon the earth. And it was so done.
in naj bodo za svetilke na nebesnem svodu neba, da na zemljo dajejo svetlobo.« In bilo je tako.
16 And God made two great lights: a greater light to rule the day; and a lesser light to rule the night: and the stars.
Bog je naredil dve veliki luči: svetlejšo luč, da vlada dnevu in šibkejšo luč, da vlada noči; naredil je tudi zvezde.
17 And he set them in the firmament of heaven to shine upon the earth.
Bog jih je postavil v nebesni svod neba, da na zemljo dajejo svetlobo
18 And to rule the day and the night, and to divide the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
in da vladajo nad dnevom in nad nočjo in da ločijo svetlobo od teme. In Bog je videl, da je bilo to dobro.
19 And the evening and morning were the fourth day.
In večer in jutro sta bila četrti dan.
20 God also said: Let the waters bring forth the creeping creature having life, and the fowl that may fly over the earth under the firmament of heaven.
[5. dan] Bog je rekel: »Naj vode obilno rodijo gibljivo ustvarjeno bitje, ki ima življenje in perjad, da lahko leti nad zemljo v odprtem nebesnem svodu neba.«
21 And God created the great whales, and every living and moving creature, which the waters brought forth, according to their kinds, and every winged fowl according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Bog je ustvaril velikanske kite in vsako živo ustvarjeno bitje, ki se giblje, ki so jih vode obilno rodile po svoji vrsti in vsako krilato perjad po svoji vrsti. In Bog je videl, da je bilo to dobro.
22 And he blessed them, saying: Increase and multiply, and fill the waters of the sea: and let the birds be multiplied upon the earth.
Bog jih je blagoslovil, rekoč: »Bodite rodovitne in se množite ter napolnite vode v morjih in naj se perjad pomnoži na zemlji.«
23 And the evening and morning were the fifth day.
In večer in jutro sta bila peti dan.
24 And God said: Let the earth bring forth the living creature in its kind, cattle and creeping things, and beasts of the earth, according to their kinds. And it was so done.
[6. dan] Bog je rekel: »Naj zemlja rodi živo ustvarjeno bitje po svoji vrsti, živino in plazečo stvar in žival zemlje po svoji vrsti.« In bilo je tako.
25 And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds, and cattle, and every thing that creepeth on the earth after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Bog je naredil žival zemlje po svoji vrsti in živino po svoji vrsti in vsako stvar, ki se plazi po zemlji, po svoji vrsti. In Bog je videl, da je bilo to dobro.
26 And he said: Let us make man to our image and likeness: and let him have dominion over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and the beasts, and the whole earth, and every creeping creature that moveth upon the earth.
Bog je rekel: »Naredimo človeka po naši podobi, po naši podobnosti in naj imata gospostvo nad ribo morja in nad zračno perjadjo in nad živino in nad vso zemljo in nad vsako plazečo stvarjo, ki se plazi na zemlji.«
27 And God created man to his own image: to the image of God he created him: male and female he created them.
Tako je Bog ustvaril človeka po svoji lastni podobi, po Božji podobi ga je ustvaril Bog. Moškega in žensko ju je ustvaril.
28 And God blessed them, saying: Increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and all living creatures that move upon the earth.
Bog ju je blagoslovil in Bog jima je rekel: »Bodita rodovitna in se množita in napolnita zemljo ter si jo podjarmita in imejta gospostvo nad ribami morja in nad zračno perjadjo in nad vsako živo stvarjo, ki se giblje na zemlji.«
29 And God said: Behold I have given you every herb bearing seed upon the earth, and all trees that have in themselves seed of their own kind, to be your meat:
Bog je rekel: »Glejta, dal sem vama vsako zeleno zelišče, ki obrodi seme, ki je na obličju vse zemlje in vsako drevo, na katerem je sad drevesa, ki obrodi seme; naj vama bo to za hrano.
30 And to all beasts of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to all that move upon the earth, and wherein there is life, that they may have to feed upon. And it was so done.
Vsaki zemeljski živali in vsaki zračni perjadi in vsaki stvari, ki se plazi na zemlji, v kateri je življenje, sem dal za hrano vsako zeleno zelišče.« In bilo je tako.
31 And God saw all the things that he had made, and they were very good. And the evening and morning were the sixth day.
Bog je videl vsako stvar, ki jo je naredil, in glej, to je bilo zelo dobro. In večer in jutro sta bila šesti dan.
