Genesis 2
1 Thus the heauens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
Yei ne ɛkwan a Onyankopɔn faa so bɔɔ ɔsoro ne asase ne deɛ ɛwɔ mu nyinaa.
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.
Ɛduruu ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no, na Onyankopɔn awie nnwuma a ɔhyɛɛ aseɛ yɛeɛ no nyinaa. Enti, ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no, ɔgyee nʼahome.
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.
Onyankopɔn hyiraa ɛda a ɛtɔ so nson no, na ɔtee ho. Ɛfiri sɛ, saa ɛda no na Onyankopɔn gyee nʼahome firii adebɔ nnwuma no nyinaa ho.
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,
Yei ne ɔsoro ne asase bɔ ho asɛm. Ɛberɛ a Awurade Onyankopɔn bɔɔ ɔsoro ne asase no.
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,
Na afifideɛ biara nni asase so, na wiram nnua biara nso nni hɔ. Ɛfiri sɛ, na Awurade Onyankopɔn mmaa nsuo ntɔɔ wɔ asase so, na onipa nso nni asase so a ɔbɛyɛ so adwuma.
6 But a myst went vp from the earth, and watered all the earth.
Nanso, nsutire puepue fifirii asase mu bɛpetee asase ani nyinaa.
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.
Awurade Onyankopɔn de asase no so dɔteɛ nwonoo onipa, na ɔhomee nkwa home guu ne hwene mu, maa onipa no bɛyɛɛ ɔteasefoɔ.
8 And the Lord God planted a garden Eastward in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had made.
Afei, Awurade Onyankopɔn yɛɛ turo wɔ Eden apueeɛ fam, na ɛhɔ na ɔde onipa a ɔnwonoo no no tenaeɛ.
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.
Awurade Onyankopɔn maa nnua ahodoɔ nyinaa fifirii asase no so; nnua a ɛyɛ fɛ na wɔdie. Turo no mfimfini no na nkwa dua, ɛnna papa ne bɔnehunu dua sisie.
10 And out of Eden went a riuer to water the garden, and from thence it was deuided, and became into foure heads.
Na nsuo tene firi Eden bɛgugu turo no mu afifideɛ no so; ɛfiri hɔ a, na saa nsuo no mu apaapae ayɛ nsubɔntene ɛnan.
11 The name of one is Pishon: the same compasseth the whole land of Hauilah, where is golde.
Wɔtoo nsuo a apaapae no mu deɛ ɛdi ɛkan no edin Pison. Na ɛkontonkonton fa Hawila asase a sikakɔkɔɔ wɔ so no so nyinaa.
12 And the golde of that land is good: there is Bdelium, and the Onix stone.
Na saa asase no so sikakɔkɔɔ yɛ. Na ɛhyɛ a ɛyɛ hwam ne apopobibirieboɔ nso wɔ hɔ.
13 And the name of the seconde riuer is Gihon: the same compasseth the whole lande of Cush.
Asubɔnten a ɛtɔ so mmienu no din de Gihon. Na ɛno ara na abobare afa Kus asase ho nyinaa.
14 The name also of the third riuer is Hiddekel: this goeth toward the Eastside of Asshur: and the fourth riuer is Perath)
Asuo a ɛtɔ so mmiɛnsa no, na wɔfrɛ no Tigris a ɛtene kɔ asase kɛseɛ Asiria apueeɛ fam. Asuo a ɛtɔ so ɛnan no nso, na wɔfrɛ no Eufrate.
15 Then the Lord God tooke the man, and put him into the garden of Eden, that he might dresse it and keepe it.
Awurade Onyankopɔn faa onipa no de no kɔtenaa Eden turo mu hɔ sɛ ɔnyɛ mu adwuma, na ɔnhwɛ so.
16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Thou shalt eate freely of euery tree of the garden,
Na Awurade Onyankopɔn bɔɔ onipa no kɔkɔ sɛ, “Wowɔ ho ɛkwan sɛ, wodi dua biara so aba wɔ turo yi mu ha;
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.
nanso wonni ho ɛkwan sɛ wodi papa ne bɔnehunu dua no so aba. Ɛda a wobɛdie no, deɛ ɛbɛyɛ biara, wobɛwu.”
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.
Afei, Awurade Onyankopɔn kaa sɛ, “Ɛnyɛ sɛ onipa nko ara tena; mɛbɔ ɔboafoɔ a ɔfata no ama no.”
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.
Saa ɛberɛ no na, Awurade Onyankopɔn de mfuturo abɔ wiram mmoa ne ewiem nnomaa nyinaa. Enti, ɔde wɔn brɛɛ onipa sɛ ɔnhwehwɛ edin ko a ɔde bɛtoto wɔn. Edin a onipa de too abɔdeɛ a nkwa wɔ mu biara no, ɛno ara na ɛyɛɛ edin a wɔde frɛɛ no.
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.
Enti, onipa totoo nyɛmmoa, ewiem nnomaa ne wiram mmoa no nyinaa edin. Nanso, onipa deɛ, wannya ɔboafoɔ a ɔfata no.
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.
Enti, Awurade Onyankopɔn maa onipa daa nnahɔɔ. Ɛberɛ a onipa daa saa no, ɔyii ne mfe mu mpadeɛ baako, na ɔde honam taree deɛ ɔyii mpadeɛ hɔ no.
22 And the ribbe which the Lord God had taken from the man, made he a woman, and brought her to the man.
Afei, Awurade Onyankopɔn de mfe mu mpadeɛ baako a ɔyi firii onipa mu no bɔɔ ɔbaa, de no maa onipa no.
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.
Na Adam kaa sɛ, “Mʼankasa me dompe ne me honam bi nie. Wɔbɛfrɛ yei ɔbaa ɛfiri sɛ, ɔbarima mu na wɔyii no firiiɛ.”
24 Therefore shall man leaue his father and his mother, and shall cleaue to his wife, and they shall be one flesh.
Yei enti na ɔbarima gya nʼagya ne ne na de ne ho kɔbata ne yere ho sɛdeɛ wɔn baanu bɛyɛ nnipa korɔ.
25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
Saa ɛberɛ no, na ɔbarima ne ne yere nyinaa ho da hɔ, nanso na wɔmfɛre.
