< Genesis 2 >

1 Thus the heauens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
Motero kumwamba, dziko lapansi ndi zonse za mʼmenemo zinatha kulengedwa monga mwa kuchuluka kwawo.
2 For in the seuenth day GOD ended his worke which he had made, and the seuenth day he rested from al his worke, which he had made.
Pofika tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri Mulungu anamaliza ntchito zonse zimene ankagwira ndipo pa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri anapumula ku ntchito zake zonse.
3 So God blessed the seuenth day, and sanctified it, because that in it he had rested from all his worke, which God had created and made.
Ndipo Mulungu anadalitsa tsiku lachisanu ndi chiwiri nalipatula, chifukwa pa tsiku limeneli Iye anapumula ku ntchito yonse yolenga imene anayigwira.
4 These are the generations of the heauens and of the earth, when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heauens,
Mbiri ya momwe kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi zinalengedwera pa tsiku lija Yehova Mulungu ankazilenga ndi iyi: Yehova Mulungu atapanga dziko lapansi ndi kumwamba,
5 And euery plant of the fielde, before it was in the earth, and euery herbe of the field, before it grewe: for the Lord God had not caused it to raine vpon the earth, neither was there a man to till the ground,
zitsamba zinali zisanamere ndipo chomera chilichonse chinali chisanamerenso popeza Yehova Mulungu anali asanagwetse mvula pa dziko lapansi. Panalibe munthu wolima nthaka,
6 But a myst went vp from the earth, and watered all the earth.
koma kasupe ankatuluka mʼnthaka ndi kuthirira pa dziko lonse.
7 The Lord God also made the man of the dust of the grounde, and breathed in his face breath of life, and the man was a liuing soule.
Tsono Yehova Mulungu anawumba munthu kuchokera ku dothi nawuziramo mpweya wamoyo mʼmphuno mwake ndipo munthuyo anakhala wamoyo.
8 And the Lord God planted a garden Eastward in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had made.
Kenaka Yehova Mulungu anatsekula munda wa Edeni chakummawa; kumeneko anayikako munthu amene anamupanga uja.
9 (For out of the ground made the Lord God to grow euery tree pleasant to the sight, and good for meate: the tree of life also in the mids of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and of euill.
Ndipo Yehova Mulungu anameretsa mʼmundamo mitengo ya mitundu yonse. Inali mitengo yokongola ndi ya zipatso zokoma. Pakati pa munda uja panali mtengo wopatsa moyo ndi mtengo wopatsa nzeru zodziwitsa chabwino ndi choyipa.
10 And out of Eden went a riuer to water the garden, and from thence it was deuided, and became into foure heads.
Mtsinje wothirira mundawo unkatuluka mu Edeni; kuchokera apo unkagawikana kukhala mitsinje inayi.
11 The name of one is Pishon: the same compasseth the whole land of Hauilah, where is golde.
Dzina la mtsinje woyamba ndi Pisoni; uwu umazungulira dziko lonse la Havila, kumene kuli golide.
12 And the golde of that land is good: there is Bdelium, and the Onix stone.
(Golide wa ku dziko ili ndi wabwino. Kulinso miyala yokongola ya bedola ndi onikisi).
13 And the name of the seconde riuer is Gihon: the same compasseth the whole lande of Cush.
Dzina la mtsinje wachiwiri ndi Gihoni; uwu umazungulira dziko lonse la Kusi.
14 The name also of the third riuer is Hiddekel: this goeth toward the Eastside of Asshur: and the fourth riuer is Perath)
Dzina la mtsinje wachitatu ndi Tigirisi; umayenda chakummawa kwa Asiriya. Ndipo mtsinje wachinayi ndi Yufurate.
15 Then the Lord God tooke the man, and put him into the garden of Eden, that he might dresse it and keepe it.
Yehova Mulungu anatenga munthu uja ndi kumuyika mʼmunda wa Edeni kuti awulime ndi kuwusamalira.
16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Thou shalt eate freely of euery tree of the garden,
Ndipo Yehova Mulungu analamula munthu uja kuti, “Uzidya zipatso za mu mtengo wina uliwonse mʼmundamu;
17 But of the tree of knowledge of good and euill, thou shalt not eate of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof, thou shalt die the death.
koma usadye zipatso za mu mtengo wodziwitsa chabwino ndi choyipa, popeza ukadzadya za mu mtengowu udzafa ndithu.”
18 Also the Lord God saide, It is not good that the man should be himself alone: I wil make him an helpe meete for him.
Ndipo Yehova Mulungu anati, “Sibwino kuti munthu akhale yekha. Ndidzamupangira mnzake womuthandiza.”
19 So the Lord God formed of the earth euery beast of the fielde, and euery foule of the heauen, and brought them vnto the man to see howe he would call them: for howsoeuer the man named the liuing creature, so was the name thereof.
Kenaka Yehova Mulungu anawumba ndi dothi nyama zonse zakuthengo ndi mbalame zonse zamlengalenga. Ndipo Iye anapita nazo kwa munthu uja kuti akazipatse mayina; ndipo dzina lililonse limene Adamu anapereka ku chamoyo chilichonse, lomwelo linakhala dzina lake.
20 The man therefore gaue names vnto all cattell, and to the foule of the heauen, and to euery beast of the fielde: but for Adam founde he not an helpe meete for him.
Choncho Adamu anazitcha mayina ziweto zonse, mbalame zamlengalenga ndi nyama zakuthengo zonse. Komabe munthu uja analibe mnzake womuthandiza.
21 Therefore the Lord God caused an heauie sleepe to fall vpon the man, and he slept: and he tooke one of his ribbes, and closed vp the flesh in steade thereof.
Tsono Yehova Mulungu anamugonetsa munthu uja tulo tofa nato; ali mtulo chomwecho, Mulungu anachotsa imodzi mwa nthiti zake ndi kutseka pamalopo ndi mnofu.
22 And the ribbe which the Lord God had taken from the man, made he a woman, and brought her to the man.
Motero Yehova Mulungu anapanga mkazi ndi nthiti ija imene anatenga kwa munthu uja nabwera naye kwa iye.
23 Then the man said, This now is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She shalbe called woman, because she was taken out of man.
Munthu uja anati, “Uyu ndiye fupa lochokera ku mafupa anga ndi mnofu wochokera ku mnofu wanga; adzatchedwa ‘mkazi,’ popeza wachokera mwa mwamuna.”
24 Therefore shall man leaue his father and his mother, and shall cleaue to his wife, and they shall be one flesh.
Nʼchifukwa chake, mwamuna amasiya abambo ndi amayi ake nakaphatikana ndi mkazi wake ndipo awiriwo amakhala thupi limodzi.
25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
Munthu uja ndi mkazi wakeyo, onse awiri anali maliseche ndipo analibe manyazi.
