Genesis 1
1 In the beginning God made the heaven and the earth.
Pada mulanya Allah menciptakan langit dan bumi.
2 But the earth was unsightly and unfurnished, and darkness was over the deep, and the Spirit of God moved over the water.
Bumi belum berbentuk dan kosong; gelap gulita menutupi samudera raya, dan Roh Allah melayang-layang di atas permukaan air.
3 And God said, Let there be light, and there was light.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Jadilah terang." Lalu terang itu jadi.
4 And God saw the light that it was good, and God divided between the light and the darkness.
Allah melihat bahwa terang itu baik, lalu dipisahkan-Nyalah terang itu dari gelap.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night, and there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
Dan Allah menamai terang itu siang, dan gelap itu malam. Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari pertama.
6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the water, and let it be a division between water and water, and it was so.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Jadilah cakrawala di tengah segala air untuk memisahkan air dari air."
7 And God made the firmament, and God divided between the water which was under the firmament and the water which was above the firmament.
Maka Allah menjadikan cakrawala dan Ia memisahkan air yang ada di bawah cakrawala itu dari air yang ada di atasnya. Dan jadilah demikian.
8 And God called the firmament Heaven, and God saw that it was good, and there was evening and there was morning, the second day.
Lalu Allah menamai cakrawala itu langit. Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari kedua.
9 And God said, Let the water which is under the heaven be collected into one place, and let the dry land appear, and it was so. And the water which was under the heaven was collected into its places, and the dry land appeared.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Hendaklah segala air yang di bawah langit berkumpul pada satu tempat, sehingga kelihatan yang kering." Dan jadilah demikian.
10 And God called the dry land Earth, and the gatherings of the waters he called Seas, and God saw that it was good.
Lalu Allah menamai yang kering itu darat, dan kumpulan air itu dinamai-Nya laut. Allah melihat bahwa semuanya itu baik.
11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the herb of grass bearing seed according to its kind and according to its likeness, and the fruit tree bearing fruit whose seed is in it, according to its kind on the earth, and it was so.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Hendaklah tanah menumbuhkan tunas-tunas muda, tumbuh-tumbuhan yang berbiji, segala jenis pohon buah-buahan yang menghasilkan buah yang berbiji, supaya ada tumbuh-tumbuhan di bumi." Dan jadilah demikian.
12 And the earth brought forth the herb of grass bearing seed according to its kind and according to its likeness, and the fruit tree bearing fruit whose seed is in it, according to its kind on the earth, and God saw that it was good.
Tanah itu menumbuhkan tunas-tunas muda, segala jenis tumbuh-tumbuhan yang berbiji dan segala jenis pohon-pohonan yang menghasilkan buah yang berbiji. Allah melihat bahwa semuanya itu baik.
13 And there was evening and there was morning, the third day.
Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari ketiga.
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, to divide between day and night, and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and for years.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Jadilah benda-benda penerang pada cakrawala untuk memisahkan siang dari malam. Biarlah benda-benda penerang itu menjadi tanda yang menunjukkan masa-masa yang tetap dan hari-hari dan tahun-tahun,
15 And let them be for light in the firmament of the heaven, so as to shine upon the earth, and it was so.
dan sebagai penerang pada cakrawala biarlah benda-benda itu menerangi bumi." Dan jadilah demikian.
16 And God made the two great lights, the greater light for regulating the day and the lesser light for regulating the night, the stars also.
Maka Allah menjadikan kedua benda penerang yang besar itu, yakni yang lebih besar untuk menguasai siang dan yang lebih kecil untuk menguasai malam, dan menjadikan juga bintang-bintang.
17 And God placed them in the firmament of the heaven, so as to shine upon the earth,
Allah menaruh semuanya itu di cakrawala untuk menerangi bumi,
18 and to regulate day and night, and to divide between the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
dan untuk menguasai siang dan malam, dan untuk memisahkan terang dari gelap. Allah melihat bahwa semuanya itu baik.
19 And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day.
Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari keempat.
20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth reptiles having life, and winged creatures flying above the earth in the firmament of heaven, and it was so.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Hendaklah dalam air berkeriapan makhluk yang hidup, dan hendaklah burung beterbangan di atas bumi melintasi cakrawala."
21 And God made great whales, and every living reptile, which the waters brought forth according to their kinds, and every creature that flies with wings according to its kind, and God saw that they were good.
Maka Allah menciptakan binatang-binatang laut yang besar dan segala jenis makhluk hidup yang bergerak, yang berkeriapan dalam air, dan segala jenis burung yang bersayap. Allah melihat bahwa semuanya itu baik.
22 And God blessed them saying, Increase and multiply and fill the waters in the seas, and let the creatures that fly be multiplied on the earth.
Lalu Allah memberkati semuanya itu, firman-Nya: "Berkembangbiaklah dan bertambah banyaklah serta penuhilah air dalam laut, dan hendaklah burung-burung di bumi bertambah banyak."
23 And there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day.
Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari kelima.
24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind, quadrupeds and reptiles and wild beasts of the earth according to their kind, and it was so.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Hendaklah bumi mengeluarkan segala jenis makhluk yang hidup, ternak dan binatang melata dan segala jenis binatang liar." Dan jadilah demikian.
25 And God made the wild beasts of the earth according to their kind, and cattle according to their kind, and all the reptiles of the earth according to their kind, and God saw that they were good.
Allah menjadikan segala jenis binatang liar dan segala jenis ternak dan segala jenis binatang melata di muka bumi. Allah melihat bahwa semuanya itu baik.
26 And God said, Let us make man according to our image and likeness, and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the flying creatures of heaven, and over the cattle and all the earth, and over all the reptiles that creep on the earth.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Baiklah Kita menjadikan manusia menurut gambar dan rupa Kita, supaya mereka berkuasa atas ikan-ikan di laut dan burung-burung di udara dan atas ternak dan atas seluruh bumi dan atas segala binatang melata yang merayap di bumi."
27 And God made man, according to the image of God he made him, male and female he made them.
Maka Allah menciptakan manusia itu menurut gambar-Nya, menurut gambar Allah diciptakan-Nya dia; laki-laki dan perempuan diciptakan-Nya mereka.
28 And God blessed them, saying, Increase and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the seas and flying creatures of heaven, and all the cattle and all the earth, and all the reptiles that creep on the earth.
Allah memberkati mereka, lalu Allah berfirman kepada mereka: "Beranakcuculah dan bertambah banyak; penuhilah bumi dan taklukkanlah itu, berkuasalah atas ikan-ikan di laut dan burung-burung di udara dan atas segala binatang yang merayap di bumi."
29 And God said, Behold I have given to you every seed-bearing herb sowing seed which is upon all the earth, and every tree which has in itself the fruit of seed that is sown, to you it shall be for food.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Lihatlah, Aku memberikan kepadamu segala tumbuh-tumbuhan yang berbiji di seluruh bumi dan segala pohon-pohonan yang buahnya berbiji; itulah akan menjadi makananmu.
30 And to all the wild beasts of the earth, and to all the flying creatures of heaven, and to every reptile creeping on the earth, which has in itself the breath of life, even every green plant for food; and it was so.
Tetapi kepada segala binatang di bumi dan segala burung di udara dan segala yang merayap di bumi, yang bernyawa, Kuberikan segala tumbuh-tumbuhan hijau menjadi makanannya." Dan jadilah demikian.
31 And God saw all the things that he had made, and, behold, they were very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
Maka Allah melihat segala yang dijadikan-Nya itu, sungguh amat baik. Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari keenam.
