< Genesis 2 >

1 So the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the furniture of them.
सारा आकाशमण्डल र पृथ्वी, र तिनमा भएका सबै जीवित प्राणीहरूको सृष्‍टि पुरा भयो ।
2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made: and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done.
सातौँ दिनसम्ममा परमेश्‍वरले आफूले गर्नुभएको कामलाई पुरा गर्नुभयो ।यसैकारण उहाँले सातौँ दिनमा सबै कामबाट विश्राम लिनुभयो ।
3 And he blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
परमेश्‍वरले सातौँ दिनलाई आशिष्‍्‍ दिनुभयो र त्यसलाई पवित्र तुल्याउनुभयो, किनभने आफ्नो सृष्‍टिमा गर्नुभएका सबै कामबाट यसै दिनमा उहाँले विश्राम लिनुभयो ।
4 These are the generations of the heaven and the earth, when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the heaven and the earth:
परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले आकाश र पृथ्वीलाई सृष्‍टि गर्नुभएको समयमा भएका घटनाक्रमहरूको वृत्तान्त यही थियो ।
5 And every plant of the field before it sprung up in the earth, and every herb of the ground before it grew: for the Lord God had not rained upon the earth; and there was not a man to till the earth.
पृथ्वीको भूमिमा अझै कुनै वनस्पति थिएन, र कुनै बिरुवा पनि उम्रेको थिएन, किनभने परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले पृथ्वीमा पानी वर्साउनुभएको थिएन, र भूमिमा खेती गर्नको निम्ति त्यहाँ कुनै मानिस थिएन ।
6 But a spring rose out of the earth, watering all the surface of the earth.
तर पृथ्वीबाट माथि आएको कुइरोले जम्मै भूमिको सतहलाई भिजाउने गर्थ्यो ।
7 And the Lord God formed man of the slime of the earth: and breathed into his face the breath of life, and man became a living soul.
परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले भूमिको माटोबाट मानिस बनाउनुभयो, र त्यसको नाखबाट जीवनको सास फुकिदिनुभयो, र मानिस जीवित प्राणी भयो ।
8 And the Lord God had planted a paradise of pleasure from the beginning: wherein he placed man whom he had formed.
परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले अदनको पूर्वतिर एउटा बगैँचा लगाउनुभयो, र उहाँले बनाउनुभएको मानिसलाई त्यहीँ राख्‍नुभयो ।
9 And the Lord God brought forth of the ground all manner of trees, fair to behold, and pleasant to eat of: the tree of life also in the midst of paradise: and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
हेर्नमा राम्रो र खानको निम्ति असल फल भएको सबै रुखलाई परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले भूमिबाट उमार्नुभयो । बगैँचाको बिचमा भएको जीवनको रुख, अनि असल र खराबको ज्ञान दिने रुख पनि उहाँले उमार्नुभयो ।
10 And a river went out of the place of pleasure to water paradise, which from thence is divided into four heads.
बगैँचालाई भिजाउन अदनबाट एउटा नदी निस्केको थियो । त्यहाँबाट त्यो छुट्टिएर चारवटा नदी बनेका थिए ।
11 The name of the one is Phison: that is it which compasseth all the land of Hevilath, where gold groweth.
पहिलो नदीको नाम पीशोन हो । यो त्यही नदी हो जुन हवीलाको सारा भूमिमा बग्दछ, जहाँ सुन पाइन्छ ।
12 And the gold of that land is very good: there is found bdellium, and the onyx stone.
त्यस भूमिको सुन असल छ । त्यहाँ खोटो र आनिक्स पत्थर पनि छन् ।
13 And the name of the second river is Gehon: the same is it that compasseth all the land of Ethiopia.
दोस्रो नदीको नाम गीहोन हो । योचाहिँ कूशको सारा भूमिमा बग्दछ ।
14 And the name of the third river is Tigris: the same passeth along by the Assyrians. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
तेस्रो नदीको नाम टाइग्रिस हो, जुन अश्शूरको पूर्वबाट बग्दछ । चौथो नदी यूफ्रेटिस हो ।
15 And the Lord God took man, and put him into the paradise of pleasure, to dress it, and to keep it.
परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले मानिसलाई अदनको बगैँचामा लगी त्यहाँ खेतीपाती गर्न र त्यसको हेरचाह गर्न राख्‍नुभयो ।
16 And he commanded him, saying: Of every tree of paradise thou shalt eat:
परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले यसो भनी आज्ञा गर्नुभयो, “बगैँचाको सबै रुखबाट खान तँलाई स्वतन्‍त्रता छ ।
17 But of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat. For in what day soever thou shalt eat of it, thou shalt die the death.
तर असल र खराबको ज्ञान दिने रुखबाट तैँले नखानू, किनभने जुन दिन तैँले त्यो फल खान्छस्, तँ निश्‍चय नै मर्नेछस् ।”
18 And the Lord God said: It is not good for man to be alone: let us make him a help like unto himself.
त्यसपछि परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले भन्‍नुभयो, “मानिस एकलो रहन असल छैन । म त्यसको लागि एउटा सुहाउने सहयोगी बनाउनेछु ।”
19 And the Lord God having formed out of the ground all the beasts of the earth, and all the fowls of the air, brought them to Adam to see what he would call them: for whatsoever Adam called any living creature the same is its name.
परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले भूमिबाट सबै पशुहरू र आकाशका सबै पक्षीहरू बनाउनुभयो । त्यसपछि मानिसले ती सबैलाई के नामले बोलाउँदो रहेछ भनेर उहाँले ती त्यसको अगि ल्याउनुभयो । हरेक जीवित प्राणीलाई मानिसले जे-जे नामले बोलायो, त्यही-त्यही नै हरेकको नाम भयो ।
20 And Adam called all the beasts by their names, and all the fowls of the air, and all the cattle of the field: but for Adam there was not found a helper like himself.
मानिसले सबै पाल्तु पशु, आकाशका सबै पक्षीहरू, र सबै जङ्गली जनावरहरूलाई नाम दियो । तर मानिसको निम्ति त्यहाँ कुनै सुहाउँदो सहयोगी पाइएन ।
21 Then the Lord God cast a deep sleep upon Adam: and when he was fast asleep, he took one of his ribs, and filled up flesh for it.
परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले मानिसलाई गहिरो निद्रामा पार्नुभयो, यसैकारण मानिस निदायो । परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले त्यसका करङहरूमध्ये एउटा झिक्‍नुभयो र करङ झिकेको ठाउँमा मासु भरिदिनुभयो ।
22 And the Lord God built the rib which he took from Adam into a woman: and brought her to Adam.
परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले मानिसबाट झिक्‍नुभएको करङबाट एउटी स्‍त्री बनाउनुभयो र तिनलाई मानिसकहाँ ल्याउनुभयो ।
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 man.
मानिसले भन्यो, “यिनी त मेरा हाडहरूको हाड र मासुको मासु हुन् । यिनलाई ‘नारी’ भनिनेछ, किनभने यिनी नरबाट झिकिएकी थिइन् ।”
24 Wherefore a man shall leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they shall be two in one flesh.
त्यसैकारण मानिसले आफ्ना बुबा र आमालाई छोड्नेछ, त्यो आफ्नी पत्‍नीसँग एक हुनेछ, र तिनीहरू एउटै शरीर हुनेछन् ।
25 And they were both naked: to wit, Adam and his wife: and were not ashamed.
मानिस र त्यसकी पत्‍नी दुवै नाङ्‍गै थिए, तर तिनीहरू लजाउँदैन थिए ।
