Genesis 1
1 In the beginning God created the heauen and the earth.
Naʻe fakatupu ʻe he ʻOtua ʻi he kamataʻanga ʻae langi mo māmani.
2 And the earth was without forme and void, and darkenesse was vpon the deepe, and the Spirit of God mooued vpon the waters.
Pea naʻe fuofuonoa ʻa māmani mo lala; pea naʻe fakapoʻuli ʻae funga ʻoe loloto. Pea naʻe ʻōʻōfaki ʻae Laumālie ʻoe ʻOtua ki he fukahi vai.
3 Then God said, Let there be light: And there was light.
Pea folofola ʻae ʻOtua, “Ke maama pea naʻe maama ai.”
4 And God saw the light that it was good, and God separated the light from the darkenes.
Pea ʻafio ʻe he ʻOtua ki he maama, kuo lelei ia: pea naʻe vaheʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae maama mei he poʻuli.
5 And God called the Light, Day, and the darkenes, he called Night. So the euening and the morning were the first day.
Pea naʻe ui ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae maama ko e “ʻAho,” pea ne ui ʻae poʻuli ko e “Pō.” Pea ko e efiafi mo e pongipongi ko e ʻuluaki ʻaho ia.
6 Againe God said, Let there be a firmament in the mids of the waters: and let it separate the waters from the waters.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua, “Ke ai ʻae ʻatā ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe ngaahi vai, ke vaheʻi ʻae ngaahi vai mei he ngaahi vai.”
7 Then God made the firmament, and separated the waters, which were vnder the firmament, from the waters which were aboue the firmament: and it was so.
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻae ʻatā, pea vaheʻi ʻae ngaahi vai naʻe ʻi he lalo ʻatā, mei he ngaahi vai naʻe ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he ʻatā: pea naʻe hoko ia.
8 And God called the firmament Heauen. So the Euening and the morning were the second day.
Pea naʻe ui ʻae ʻatā ʻe he ʻOtua ko e “Langi.” Pea ko e efiafi mo e pongipongi ko hono ʻaho ua ia.
9 God said againe, Let the waters vnder the heauen be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appeare. and it was so.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua, “Ke fakataha ʻae ngaahi vai ʻi he lalo langi ki he potu pe taha, pea ke hā mai ʻae mōmoa: pea naʻe hoko ia.”
10 And God called the dry land, Earth, and he called the gathering together of the waters, Seas: and God saw that it was good.
Pea naʻe ui ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae mōmoa ko e Fonua; pea ko e ngaahi vai naʻe tānaki fakataha, naʻa ne ui ko e Tahi; pea naʻe ʻafio ʻe he ʻOtua kuo lelei.
11 Then God said, Let the earth bud forth the bud of the herbe, that seedeth seed, the fruitfull tree, which beareth fruite according to his kinde, which hath his seede in it selfe vpon the earth: and it was so.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua, “Ke tupu ʻae mohuku mei he kelekele, mo e ʻakau iiki ʻoku ai hono tenga, mo e ʻakau ʻoku fua, pea ʻi ai hono tenga, ʻo tatau mo hono faʻahinga:” pea naʻe hoko ia.
12 And the earth brought foorth the bud of the herbe, that seedeth seede according to his kind, also the tree that beareth fruit, which hath his seed in it selfe according to his kinde: and God saw that it was good.
Pea naʻe tupu mei he kelekele ʻae mohuku, mo e ʻakau iiki naʻe tupu ai ʻae tenga ʻo hono faʻahinga, mo e ʻakau ʻoku fua, ʻaia naʻe ʻi ai ʻae tenga ʻo hono faʻahinga: pea naʻe ʻafio ʻe he ʻOtua kuo lelei.
13 So the euening and the morning were the third day.
Pea ko e efiafi mo e pongipongi ko hono ʻaho tolu ia.
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heauen, to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signes, and for seasons, and for dayes and yeeres.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua, “Ke ai ʻae ngaahi maama ʻi he ʻatā ʻoe langi, ke vaheʻi ʻae ʻaho mei he pō; pea ke fakaʻilonga ʻaki ia ʻae ngaahi faʻahitaʻu, mo e ngaahi ʻaho, mo e ngaahi taʻu:
15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heauen to giue light vpon the earth: and it was so.
pea ke hoko ia ko e ngaahi maama ʻi he ʻatā ʻoe langi ke fakamaama ki māmani:” pea naʻe hoko ia.
16 God then made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesse light to rule the night: he made also the starres.
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae maama lahi ʻe ua; ko e maama lahi hake ke pule ki he ʻaho, mo e maama siʻi ke pule ki he pō: pea mo e ngaahi fetuʻu foki.
17 And God set them in the firmament of the heauen, to shine vpon the earth,
Pea naʻe tuku ia ʻe he ʻOtua ʻi he ʻatā ʻoe langi, ke fakamaama ki māmani,
18 And to rule in the day, and in the night, and to separate the light from the darkenesse: and God saw that it was good.
Pea ke pule ki he ʻaho mo e pō, pea ke vaheʻi ʻae maama mei he poʻuli: pea naʻe ʻafio ʻe he ʻOtua kuo lelei.
19 So the euening and the morning were the fourth day.
Pea ko e efiafi mo e pongipongi ko hono ʻaho fā ia.
20 Afterward God said, Let the waters bring foorth in abundance euery creeping thing that hath life: and let the foule flie vpon the earth in the open firmament of the heauen.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua, “Ke tupu ʻo lahi ʻaupito mei he ngaahi vai ʻae meʻa moʻui ʻoku totolo, mo e fanga manupuna ke puna ʻi he funga ʻo māmani, ʻi he ʻatā ʻoe langi.”
21 Then God created the great whales, and euery thing liuing and mouing, which the waters brought foorth in abundance according to their kinde, and euery fethered foule according to his kinde: and God sawe that it was good.
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi tofuaʻa lalahi, mo e meʻa moʻui kotoa pē naʻe ngaolo, ʻaia ne tupu lahi ʻaupito mei he ngaahi vai ʻi honau faʻahinga, mo e fanga manupuna kotoa pē ʻi honau faʻahinga pea naʻe ʻafio ʻe he ʻOtua kuo lelei.
22 Then God blessed them, saying, Bring foorth fruite and multiplie, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the foule multiplie in the earth.
Pea naʻe tāpuakiʻi ʻakinautolu ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻo pehē, “Mou fanafanau, mo tupu ke lahi, pea fakafonu ʻae ngaahi vai ʻoe tahi, pea ke tupu ke lahi ʻae fanga manupuna ʻi māmani.
23 So the euening and the morning were the fifte day.
Pea ko e efiafi mo e pongipongi ko hono ʻaho nima ia.
24 Moreouer God said, Let the earth bring foorth the liuing thing according to his kinde, cattel, and that which creepeth, and the beast of the earth, according to his kinde. and it was so.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua, “Ke tupu mei he fonua ʻae meʻa moʻui ʻi hono faʻahinga, ʻae fanga manu, mo e meʻa totolo, mo e manu ʻoe vao ʻi hono faʻahinga:” pea naʻe hoko ia.
25 And God made the beast of the earth according to his kinde, and the cattell according to his kinde, and euery creeping thing of the earth according to his kind: and God saw that it was good.
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae manu ʻoe vao ʻi hono faʻahinga, mo e fanga manu lalahi ʻi honau faʻahinga, mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku totolo ʻi he funga fonua ʻi hono faʻahinga: pea naʻe ʻafio ʻe he ʻOtua kuo lelei ia.
26 Furthermore God said, Let vs make man in our image according to our likenes, and let them rule ouer the fish of the sea, and ouer the foule of the heauen, and ouer the beastes, and ouer all the earth, and ouer euery thing that creepeth and moueth on the earth.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua, “Ke tau ngaohi ʻae tangata ʻi hotau tatau, mo e tau anga: pea kenau pule ki he ika ʻoe tahi, mo e manupuna ʻoe ʻatā, mo e fanga manu, mo māmani kotoa pē, mo e meʻa totolo kotoa pē ʻoku ngaue ʻi he kelekele.”
27 Thus God created the man in his image: in the image of God created he him: he created them male and female.
Ko ia naʻe ngaohi ʻae tangata ʻe he ʻOtua ʻi hono tatau, naʻa ne ngaohi ia ʻi he tatau ʻoe ʻOtua; naʻa ne ngaohi ʻakinaua ko e tangata mo e fefine.
28 And God blessed them, and God said to them, Bring forth fruite and multiplie, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule ouer the fish of the sea, and ouer the foule of the heauen, and ouer euery beast that moueth vpon the earth.
Pea naʻe tāpuakiʻi ʻakinaua ʻe he ʻOtua, pea folofola ʻae ʻOtua kiate kinaua, “Fanafanau, mo fakatokolahi, mo fakakakai ʻa māmani, pea pule ki ai: pea pule ki he ika ʻoe tahi, mo e fanga manupuna ʻoe ʻatā, mo e meʻa moʻui kotoa pē ʻoku ngaue ʻi he funga ʻo māmani.”
29 And God said, Beholde, I haue giuen vnto you euery herbe bearing seede, which is vpon al the earth, and euery tree, wherein is the fruite of a tree bearing seede: that shall be to you for meate.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua, “Vakai, kuo u foaki kiate kimoua ʻae ʻakau iiki kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai hono tenga, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he funga ʻoe fonua kotoa, mo e ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoku fua ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ai hono tenga; ko ia ia ke mo kai.
30 Likewise to euery beast of the earth, and to euery foule of the heauen, and to euery thing that moueth vpon the earth, which hath life in it selfe, euery greene herbe shall be for meate. and it was so.
Pea ko e fanga manu kotoa pē ʻi he fonua, mo e fanga manupuna kotoa pē ʻoe ʻatā, mo e meʻa moʻui kotoa pē ʻoku totolo ʻi he fonua, ʻe kai ʻi he ʻakaulaumata kotoa pē:” pea naʻe hoko ia.
31 And God sawe all that he had made, and loe, it was very good. So the euening and the morning were the sixt day.
Pea naʻe ʻafio ʻe he ʻOtua ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻa ne ngaohi, pea vakai, naʻe lelei ʻaupito. Pea ko e efiafi mo e pongipongi ko hono ʻaho ono ia.
