+ Genesis 1 >

1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Pada mulanya Allah menciptakan langit dan bumi.
2 And the earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God was waving over the face of the waters.
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 it was evening and it 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 an expansion in the midst of the waters, and let it divide between waters and waters.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Jadilah cakrawala di tengah segala air untuk memisahkan air dari air."
7 And God made the expansion, and divided between the waters which were under the expansion and the waters which were above the expansion: and it was so.
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 expansion Heaven. And it was evening and it 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 waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land be visible: and it was so.
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 gathering together 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 grass, herbs yielding seed, fruit-trees yielding fruit after their kind, in which its seed is upon 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 grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees yielding fruit, in which its seed is after their kind: 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 it was evening and it was morning, the third day.
Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari ketiga.
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the expansion of the heaven to divide between the day and the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and 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 lights in the expansion of the heaven, to give light 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 to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night; and the stars.
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 set them in the expansion of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
Allah menaruh semuanya itu di cakrawala untuk menerangi bumi,
18 And to rule by day and by 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 it was evening and it was morning, the fourth day.
Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari keempat.
20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly moving creatures that have life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open expansion of the heaven.
Berfirmanlah Allah: "Hendaklah dalam air berkeriapan makhluk yang hidup, dan hendaklah burung beterbangan di atas bumi melintasi cakrawala."
21 And God created the great sea-monsters, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly after their kind, and every winged fowl after its kind: and God saw that it was 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, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the fowl multiply 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 it was evening and it was morning, the fifth day.
Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari kelima.
24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind, cattle, and creeping things, and beasts of the earth after 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 beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after its kind: and God saw that it was 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 in our image, after our likeness; and they shall have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heaven, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon 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 created man in his image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he 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, and God said unto them, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heaven, and over every living thing that moveth upon 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 unto you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree on which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; 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 every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the heaven, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, [I have given] every green herb 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 every thing that he had made, and behold, it was very good. And it was evening and it was morning, the sixth day.
Maka Allah melihat segala yang dijadikan-Nya itu, sungguh amat baik. Jadilah petang dan jadilah pagi, itulah hari keenam.
