< Genesis 2 >

1 Thus were finished the heavens and the earth, and all their host.
Te tlam te vaan rhoek khaw, diklai khaw, amih kah caempuei boeih khaw a coeng.
2 And God had finished on the seventh day his work which he had made, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
Pathen loh amah kah a bi saii te hnin rhih neh a coeng tih a hnin rhih vaengah a bibi saii boeih te a duem tak.
3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it; because thereon he had rested from all his work which God had created in making it.
Te phoeiah Pathen loh a rhih khohnin te yoethen a paek tih te te a ciim. Te vaengah Pathen tah saii ham a suen a bibi boeih lamloh duem.
4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, on the day that the Lord God made earth and heaven.
He tah BOEIPA Pathen loh diklai neh vaan a saii tue ah a suen vaan neh diklai kah a rhuirhong ni.
5 And every plant of the field was not yet on the earth, and every herb of the field had not yet grown; for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and man was not yet there to till the ground.
Te vaengah BOEIPA Pathen loh diklai la kho a tlan sak hlan dongah kohong kah tangpuem boeih khaw diklai ah poe hlan. Te dongah lohma kah baelhing boeih daih hlan tih lo tawn ham hlang ana om pawh.
6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
Tedae diklai lamkah tuihu ha thoeng tih diklai hman boeih a suep.
7 And the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and the man became a living being.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA Pathen loh diklai lamkah laipi te hlang la a hlinsai. Te phoeiah hingnah hiil te a hnarhong ah a ueng pah tih aka hing tongpa hinglu la coeng.
8 And the Lord God planted a garden in Eden to the eastward, and he put there the man whom he had formed.
Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh khothoeng kah Eden ah dum a hlo tih a hlang saii te a khueh.
9 And the Lord God caused to grow out of the ground every tree that is pleasant to the sight and good for food; and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
BOEIPA Pathen loh diklai lamkah thing mueimae then neh caak then boeih te a poe sak tih dum kah laklung ah hingnah thing neh a thae a then mingnah thing om.
10 And a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it was parted, and became four principal streams.
Te vaengah dum aka suep ham Eden lamkah tuiva long tih te lamkah a phih uh vaengah tuisae pali la coeng.
11 The name of the first is Pishon, the same which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.
Lamhma kah a ming tah Pishon tih sui aka om Havilah khohmuen tom la a ken.
12 And the gold of that land is good; there is the bdellium and the onyx stone.
Te khohmuen kah sui tah then tih thingpi neh oitha lungto khaw pahoi om.
13 And the name of the second river is Gihon, the same which compasseth the whole land of Cush.
Te phoeiah tuiva pabae kah a ming tah Khusah khohmuen boeih aka hil Gihon ni.
14 And the name of the third river is Hiddekel, the same which floweth towards the east of Assyria; and the fourth river is the Euphrates.
Te phoeiah tuiva a pathum kah ming tah khothoeng Assyria la aka long Khiddekel ni. Tuiva a pali nah tetah Perath ni.
15 And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden, to till it, and to keep it.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA Pathen loh hlang te a loh tih Eden dum ah thotat ham neh dum aka hung ham a khueh.
16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat;
Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh hlang taengah a uen tih, “Dum kah thingkung boeih te caak la ca.
17 But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it; for on the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
Tedae a then neh a thae mingnah thingkung lamkah te ca boeh. Te te na caak hnin vaeng lamloh na duek rhoe na duek ni,” a ti nah.
18 And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a help suitable for him.
Te vaengah BOEIPA Pathen loh, “Hlang he amah bueng tah om ham then pawh anih ham amah neh a naii uh la bomkung ka saii ni,” a ti.
19 And the Lord God had formed out of the ground every beast of the field, and every fowl of the heaven, and he brought them unto the man to see what he would call them; and whatsoever the man would call every living creature, that should be its name.
Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh diklai lamkah, a hlin a sai kohong mulhing boeih neh vaan kah vaa boeih soah metla a khue te hmuh ham khaw, hlang loh a khue boeih te tah mulhing hinglu ming la om sak ham khaw, hlang taengla a khuen.
20 And the man gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the heaven, and to every beast of the field; but for man there was not found a help suitable for him.
Te dongah hlang loh rhamsa boeih khaw, vaan kah vaa te khaw, kohong kah mulhing khaw, ming a paek dae Adam neh aka tiing la bomkung hmu pawh.
21 And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof.
Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh tongpa te muelh a ih sak. A ih vaengah a vaerhuh pakhat te a loh pah phoeiah a pumsa kah a hma te tloep a saibawn sak.
22 And the Lord God formed the rib which he had taken from the man into a woman, and brought her unto the man.
Te phoeiah BOEIPA Pathen loh tongpa lamkah a loh vaerhuh te huta la a saii tih tongpa taengla a khuen.
23 And the man said, This time it is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; this shall be called Woman, [[Ishah, ]] because out of Man [[Ishi]] was this one taken.
Te vaengah tongpa loh, “Tahae kah he ka rhuh lamkah ka rhuh, ka saa lamkah ka saa ni. Anih he tongpa lamkah a loh dongah huta tila ka khue ni,” a ti.
24 Therefore doth a man leave his father and his mother, and cleave unto his wife, and they become one flesh.
Te dongah tongpa loh a napa neh a manu te a toeng ni. Te phoeiah a yuu taengla khoem uh vetih pumsa pakhat la om rhoi ni.
25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
Te vaengah tongpa neh a yuu tah pumtling la om rhoi dae yak rhoi pawh.
