< Genesis 2 >

1 And the heavens and the earth were finished, and the whole world of them.
Uumamni samiitii fi lafaa, kan waan isaan keessa jiru hundaas haala kanaan xumurame.
2 And God finished on the sixth day his works which he made, and he ceased on the seventh day from all his works which he made.
Waaqni hojii hojjechaa ture hunda guyyaa torbaffaatti fixe; kanaafuu inni guyyaa torbaffaatti hojii isaa hundumaa irraa boqote.
3 And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it he ceased from all his works which God began to do.
Waaqni sababii gaafa sana hojii waa uumuu kan hojjechaa ture hunda irraa boqoteef guyyaa torbaffaa eebbisee qulqulleesse.
4 This [is] the book of the generation of heaven and earth, when they were made, in the day in which the Lord God made the heaven and the earth,
Seenaan samiiwwaniitii fi lafaa kan yeroo isaan uumamanii, yeroo Waaqayyo Waaqni lafaa fi samiiwwan uumee kanaa dha.
5 and every herb of the field before it was on the earth, and all the grass of the field before it sprang up, for God had not rained on the earth, and there was not a man to cultivate it.
Sababii Waaqayyo Waaqni bokkaa hin roobsiniif, namni lafa qotus waan hin jiraatiniif margi tokko iyyuu lafa irratti hin mulʼanne; biqiltuunis lafa qotiisaa irratti hin biqille ture.
6 But there rose a fountain out of the earth, and watered the whole face of the earth.
Garuu bishaan lafa keessaa burqee lafa hunda obaasa ture.
7 And God formed the man [of] dust of the earth, and breathed upon his face the breath of life, and the man became a living soul.
Waaqayyo Waaqni biyyoo lafaa irraa nama tolche; hafuura jireenyaas funyaan isaatti baafate; namnis uumama jiraataa taʼe.
8 And God planted a garden eastward in Edem, and placed there the man whom he had formed.
Waaqayyo Waaqnis Eeden keessatti gama baʼa biiftuutti iddoo biqiltuu qopheesse; nama tolche sanas achi keessa kaaʼe.
9 And God made to spring up also out of the earth every tree beautiful to the eye and good for food, and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of learning the knowledge of good and evil.
Waaqayyo Waaqni mukkeen gosa hundaa lafa keessaa biqilche; inni mukkeen ija namaatti tolanii fi nyaataafis gaarii taʼan biqilche. Iddoo biqiltuu sana keessas muka jireenyaatii fi muka waan gaarii fi waan hamaa nama beeksisutu ture.
10 And a river proceeds out of Edem to water the garden, thence it divides itself into four heads.
Lagni iddoo biqiltuu sana obaasu tokkos Eeden keessaa burqa ture; lagni sun Eedenii kaʼee gargar baʼee laga afur taʼe.
11 The name of the one, Phisom, this it is which encircles the whole land of Evilat, where there is gold.
Maqaan laga tokkoffaa Phiishoon; innis guutummaa biyya Hawiilaa, iddoo warqeen jirutti naannaʼee yaaʼa.
12 And the gold of that land is good, there also is carbuncle and emerald.
Warqeen biyya sanaa gaarii dha; hapheen urgaaʼuu fi sardooniksiin achitti argamu.
13 And the name of the second river is Geon, this it is which encircles the whole land of Ethiopia.
Maqaan isa lammaffaa Giihooni; innis guutummaa lafa Itoophiyaatti naannaʼee yaaʼa.
14 And the third river is Tigris, this is that which flows forth over against the Assyrians. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
Maqaan laga sadaffaa Xegroosi; innis karaa baʼa biiftuutiin Asoor cina yaaʼa. Lagni afuraffaan immoo Efraaxiis jedhama.
15 And the Lord God took the man whom he had formed, and placed him in the garden of Delight, to cultivate and keep it.
Waaqayyo Waaqni akka inni isa misoomsuu fi akka inni isa eeguuf jedhee nama fuudhee Iddoo Biqiltuu Eeden keessa kaaʼe.
16 And the Lord God gave a charge to Adam, saying, Of every tree which is in the garden you may freely eat,
Waaqayyo Waaqnis akkana jedhee nama ajaje; “Muka iddoo biqiltuu kana keessa jiru hunda irraa nyaachuu ni dandeessa;
17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil—of it you shall not eat, but in whatever day you eat of it, you shall surely die.
garuu muka waan gaarii fi waan hamaa nama beeksisu sana irraa hin nyaatin; gaafa isa irraa nyaatte dhugumaan ni duutaatii.”
18 And the Lord God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone, let us make for him a help suitable to him.
Waaqayyo Waaqni, “Namni kophaa isaa taʼuun gaarii miti; gargaartuu isatti toltu nan tolchaaf” jedhe.
19 And God formed yet farther out of the earth all the wild beasts of the field, and all the birds of the sky, and he brought them to Adam, to see what he would call them, and whatever Adam called any living creature, that was the name of it.
Waaqayyo Waaqnis bineensaa fi simbirroota samii hundumaa lafa irraa tolche. Maqaa inni isaaniif baasu ilaaluuf jedhees gara namichaatti isaan fide; wanni namichi sun tokkoo tokkoo uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyii ittiin waame kam iyyuu maqaa taʼeef.
20 And Adam gave names to all the cattle and to all the birds of the sky, and to all the wild beasts of the field, but for Adam there was not found a help like to himself.
Namichi sunis horii qeʼee hundaaf, simbirroota samii hundaaf, bineensa hundaaf maqaa baase. Addaamiif garuu gargaartuun isatti toltu hin argamne.
21 And God brought a trance upon Adam, and he slept, and he took one of his ribs, and filled up the flesh instead thereof.
Kanaafis Waaqayyo Waaqni akka namichi hirribaan of wallaalu godhe; utuma inni rafaa jiruu lafee cinaacha isaa keessaa tokko fuudhee iddoo sana fooniin duuche.
22 And God formed the rib which he took from Adam into a woman, and brought her to Adam.
Waaqayyo Waaqni lafee cinaachaa kan namicha keessaa fuudhe sana irraa dubartii tolchee gara namichaatti geesse.
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 her husband.
Namichis akkana jedhe; “Egaa lafeen kun lafee lafee kootii ti; foon kunis foon foon kootii ti; isheen waan dhiira irraa argamteef ‘dubartii’ jedhamti.”
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
Kanaafuu namni abbaa fi haadha isaa ni dhiisa; niitii isaatti ni maxxana; isaanis foon tokko taʼu.
Namichii fi niitiin isaa qullaa isaanii turan; garuu wal hin qaanaʼan ture.
