Genesis 1
1 In [the] beginning God created the heavens and the earth,
元始に神天地を創造たまへり
2 and the earth was formless and void, and darkness [was] on the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God [was] fluttering on the face of the waters,
地は定形なく曠空くして黑暗淵の面にあり神の靈水の面を覆たりき
3 and God says, “Let light be”; and light is.
神光あれと言たまひければ光ありき
4 And God sees that the light [is] good, and God separates between the light and the darkness,
神光を善と觀たまへり神光と暗を分ちたまへり
5 and God calls the light “Day,” and the darkness He has called “Night”; and there is an evening, and there is a morning—day one.
神光を晝と名け暗を夜と名けたまへり夕あり朝ありき是首の日なり
6 And God says, “Let an expanse be in the midst of the waters, and let it be separating between waters and waters.”
神言たまひけるは水の中に穹蒼ありて水と水とを分つべし
7 And God makes the expanse, and it separates between the waters which [are] under the expanse, and the waters which [are] above the expanse: and it is so.
神穹蒼を作りて穹蒼の下の水と穹蒼の上の水とを判ちたまへり即ち斯なりぬ
8 And God calls the expanse “Heavens”; and there is an evening, and there is a morning—[the] second day.
神穹蒼を天と名けたまへり夕あり朝ありき是二日なり
9 And God says, “Let the waters under the heavens be collected to one place, and let the dry land be seen”: and it is so.
神言たまひけるは天の下の水は一處に集りて乾ける土顯べしと即ち斯なりぬ
10 And God calls the dry land “Earth,” and the collection of the waters He has called “Seas”; and God sees that [it is] good.
神乾ける土を地と名け水の集合るを海と名けたまへり神之を善と觀たまへり
11 And God says, “Let the earth yield tender grass, herb sowing seed, fruit-tree (whose seed [is] in itself) making fruit after its kind, on the earth”: and it is so.
神言たまひけるは地は靑草と實蓏を生ずる草蔬と其類に從ひ果を結びみづから核をもつ所の果を結ぶ樹を地に發出すべしと即ち斯なりぬ
12 And the earth brings forth tender grass, herb sowing seed after its kind, and tree making fruit (whose seed [is] in itself) after its kind; and God sees that [it is] good;
地靑草と其類に從ひ實蓏を生ずる草蔬と其類に從ひ果を結てみづから核をもつ所の樹を發出せり神これを善と觀たまへり
13 and there is an evening, and there is a morning—[the] third day.
夕あり朝ありき是三日なり
14 And God says, “Let luminaries be in the expanse of the heavens, to make a separation between the day and the night, then they have been for signs, and for appointed times, and for days and years,
神言たまひけるは天の穹蒼に光明ありて晝と夜とを分ち又天象のため時節のため日のため年のために成べし
15 and they have been for luminaries in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth”: and it is so.
又天の穹蒼にありて地を照す光となるべしと即ち斯なりぬ
16 And God makes the two great luminaries, the great luminary for the rule of the day, and the small luminary—and the stars—for the rule of the night;
神二の巨なる光を造り大なる光に晝を司どらしめ小き光に夜を司どらしめたまふまた星を造りたまへり
17 and God gives them in the expanse of the heavens to give light on the earth,
神これを天の穹蒼に置て地を照さしめ
18 and to rule over day and over night, and to make a separation between the light and the darkness; and God sees that [it is] good;
晝と夜を司どらしめ光と暗を分たしめたまふ神これを善と觀たまへり
19 and there is an evening, and there is a morning—[the] fourth day.
夕あり朝ありき是四日なり
20 And God says, “Let the waters teem with the teeming living creature, and let [the] bird fly above the earth on the face of the expanse of the heavens.”
神云たまひけるは水には生物饒に生じ鳥は天の穹蒼の面に地の上に飛べしと
21 And God creates the great dragons, and every living creature that is creeping, which the waters have teemed with, after their kind, and every bird with wing, after its kind, and God sees that [it is] good.
神巨なる魚と水に饒に生じて動く諸の生物を其類に從ひて創造り又羽翼ある諸の鳥を其類に從ひて創造りたまへり神之を善と觀たまへり
22 And God blesses them, saying, “Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the bird multiply in the earth”:
神之を祝して曰く生よ繁息よ海の水に充牣よ又禽鳥は地に蕃息よと
23 and there is an evening, and there is a morning—[the] fifth day.
夕あり朝ありき是五日なり
24 And God says, “Let the earth bring forth the living creature after its kind, livestock and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after its kind”: and it is so.
神言給ひけるは地は生物を其類に從て出し家畜と昆蟲と地の獸を其類に從て出すべしと即ち斯なりぬ
25 And God makes the beast of the earth after its kind, and the livestock after their kind, and every creeping thing of the ground after its kind, and God sees that [it is] good.
神地の獸を其類に從て造り家畜を其類に從て造り地の諸の昆蟲を其類に從て造り給へり神之を善と觀給へり
26 And God says, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness, and let them rule over [the] fish of the sea, and over [the] bird of the heavens, and over livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that is creeping on the earth.”
神言給けるは我儕に象りて我儕の像の如くに我儕人を造り之に海の魚と天空の鳥と家畜と全地と地に匍ふ所の諸の昆蟲を治めんと
27 And God creates the man in His image; in the image of God He created him, a male and a female He created them.
神其像の如くに人を創造たまへり即ち神の像の如くに之を創造之を男と女に創造たまへり
28 And God blesses them, and God says to them, “Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over [the] fish of the sea, and over [the] bird of the heavens, and over every living thing that is creeping on the earth.”
神彼等を祝し神彼等に言たまひけるは生よ繁殖よ地に滿盈よ之を服從せよ又海の魚と天空の鳥と地に動く所の諸の生物を治めよ
29 And God says, “Behold, I have given to you every herb sowing seed, which [is] on the face of all the earth, and every tree in which [is] the fruit of a tree sowing seed, to you it is for food;
神言たまひけるは視よ我全地の面にある實蓏のなる諸の草蔬と核ある木果の結る諸の樹とを汝等に與ふこれは汝らの糧となるべし
30 and to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the heavens, and to every creeping thing on the earth, in which [is] breath of life, every green herb [is] for food”: and it is so.
又地の諸の獸と天空の諸の鳥および地に匍ふ諸の物等凡そ生命ある者には我食物として諸の靑き草を與ふと即ち斯なりぬ
31 And God sees all that He has done, and behold, [it is] very good; and there is an evening, and there is a morning—the sixth day.
神其造りたる諸の物を視たまひけるに甚だ善りき夕あり朝ありき是六日なり
