< Genesis 2 >

1 And the heavens and the earth are completed, and all their host;
Aa le nifonitse ty tane toy naho o likerañeo naho ty fitozantoza’ iareo.
2 and God completes by the seventh day His work which He has made, and ceases by the seventh day from all His work which He has made.
Nifoniren’ Añahare ami’ty andro faha-fito i fitoloña’ey, le nitroatse ami’ty andro faha-fito amo hene tolon-draha nanoe’eo;
3 And God blesses the seventh day, and sanctifies it, for in it He has ceased from all His work which God had created for making.
Le nitahien’ Añahare ty andro faha-fito vaho nimasiñe’e, amy te ama’e ro nitroara’e amy ze nitsenèn’ Añahare iaby, hamokara’e ka.
4 These [are] the generations of the heavens and of the earth in their being created, in the day of YHWH God’s making the earth and the heavens;
Inay ty fanoñonañe o like­rañeo naho ty tane toy amy fañamboarañe iareoy. Tamy sa namboare’ Iehovà Andria­ñahare ty tane toy naho o likerañeoy
5 and no shrub of the field is yet in the earth, and no herb of the field yet sprouts, for YHWH God has not rained on the earth, and there is not a man to serve the ground,
naho mbe tsy tan-tane ao ze hataen-kivoke naho taolo’ ty nitiria’ ze ahetse am-patrañe ao, vaho mboe tsy nampahavie’ Iehovà Andria­ñahare orañe ty tane, fa tsy teo ty ondaty hahava i taney;
6 and a mist goes up from the earth, and has watered the whole face of the ground.
fe niboahan-jono ty tane ze nahatondra-drano ty ambone’ ty tane toy iaby;
7 And YHWH God forms the man—dust from the ground, and breathes into his nostrils breath of life, and the man becomes a living creature.
le namboare’ Iehovà Andrianañahare ami’ty lembon-tane t’indaty naho nikofo­ha’e tion-kaveloñe o lalam-pian­tsona’eo vaho ninjare fañova veloñe indatiy.
8 And YHWH God plants a garden in Eden, at the east, and He sets there the man whom He has formed;
Le nañalahala goloboñe maniñanañe e Edene ao t’Iehovà Andrianañahare, vaho navotra’e ao indaty namboare’ey.
9 and YHWH God causes to sprout from the ground every tree desirable for appearance, 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.
Le nampitirie’ Iehovà Andrianañahare boak’ an-tane ao ze karazan-katae soa am-pivazohoañe naho mafiry am-pikamañe, le añivo’ i goloboñey ao ty hataen-kaveloñe naho ty hataem-paharendrehañe ty soa naho ty raty.
10 And a river is going out from Eden to water the garden, and from there it is parted, and has become four chief [rivers];
Nikavavàke boak’ Edene ao ty oñe handeñe i goloboñey, ie boak’ ao le nivaky efatse.
11 the name of the first [is] Pison, it [is] that which is surrounding the whole land of Havilah where the gold [is],
Pisone ty añara’ ty valoha’e, mañariari’ i hene tane’ Kavilày, ie amam-bolamena;
12 and the gold of that land [is] good; the bdellium and the shoham stone [are] there;
soa ty volamena’ i taney; añe ty bedo­lake naho ty vato antsetra.
13 and the name of the second river [is] Gihon, it [is] that which is surrounding the whole land of Cush;
Gihone ty añara’ i oñe faharoe mitsikarioke era’ i tane Kosiy.
14 and the name of the third river [is] Hiddekel, it [is] that which is going east of Asshur; and the fourth river is the Euphrates.
Hidiklà ty añara’ i fahateloy ze miary atiñana’ i Asore; vaho i Perate t’y oñe fah’efatse.
15 And YHWH God takes the man, and causes him to rest in the Garden of Eden, to serve it and to keep it.
Navotra’ Iehovà Andrianañahare an-Golobo’ i Edene ao indatiy hañalahala naho hañambeñ’ aze.
16 And YHWH God lays a charge on the man, saying, “From every tree of the garden eating you eat;
Le hoe ty linili’ Iehovà Andrianañahare am’indatiy, Azo’o ikamañe ze hene hatae amy goloboñey ao;
17 but from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, you do not eat from it, for in the day of your eating from it—dying you die.”
fe ko ikamà’o ty hataem-paharendrehañe ty soa naho ty raty, fa toe hivetrake irehe ami’ty andro ikama’o aze.
18 And YHWH God says, “[It is] not good for the man to be alone; I make him a helper as his counterpart.”
Le hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare, Tsy mahasoa indatiy te ho tokañe, hamboarako mpañimba mañeva.
19 And YHWH God forms from the ground every beast of the field, and every bird of the heavens, and brings [them] to the man, to see what he calls it; and whatever the man calls a living creature, that [is] its name.
Aa le boak’ amo taneo ty namboare’ Iehovà Andrianañahare ze kila bibin-kivoke, naho ze hene voron-tioke vaho nen­dese’e am’ indatiy hivazoho ze sindre ho tokava’ indatiy aze; aa le ze nitokava’ indatiy ty raha veloñe, le izay ty añara’e.
20 And the man calls names to all the livestock, and to bird of the heavens, and to every beast of the field; but for man a helper has not been found as his counterpart.
Nimea’ indatiy añarañe ze hene hare naho voron-tioke, vaho ze biby am-patrañe añe iaby; fa naho indatiy, tsy nioniñe ty mpañolotse mañeva aze.
21 And YHWH God causes a deep sleep to fall on the man, and he sleeps, and He takes one of his ribs, and closes up flesh in its stead.
Aa le nampifetsaha’ Iehovà Andria­nañahare am’indatiy ty rotse miheotse, naho ie nirotse le nafaha’e ty pa’e raike vaho nakite’e amy toe’ey ty nofotse.
22 And YHWH God builds up the rib which He has taken out of the man into a woman, and brings her to the man;
Nitsene ampela t’Iehovà Andrianañahare amy rinambe’e añ’ila’ indatiy vaho nasese’e am’indatiy.
23 and the man says, “This at last! Bone of my bone, and flesh of my flesh!” For this is called Woman, for this has been taken from Man;
Le hoe indatiy, Itoy henaneo ty taola’ o taolakoo naho ty nofo’ o nofokoo; le hatao Rakemba re amy te lahilahy ro nañakarañe aze.
24 therefore a man leaves his father and his mother, and has cleaved to his wife, and they have become one flesh.
Aa le mienga ty rae’e naho i rene’e t’indaty le mipitek’ ami’ty vali’e vaho nofotse raike iereo.
25 And both of them are naked, the man and his wife, and they are not ashamed of themselves.
Ie amy zay, songa nitanjaka indatiy naho i vali’ey fe tsy nimeñatse.
