Genesis 1
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
No princípio criou Deus os céus e a terra.
2 Now the earth was formless and empty, and darkness was on the surface of the watery depths. And God's Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.
E a terra estava desordenada e vazia, e as trevas estavam sobre a face do abismo, e o Espírito de Deus se movia sobre a face das águas.
3 And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
E disse Deus: Haja luz; e houve luz.
4 And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness.
E viu Deus que a luz era boa: e separou Deus a luz das trevas.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. There was evening and there was morning, one day.
E chamou Deus à luz Dia, e às trevas chamou Noite: e foi a tarde e a manhã o primeiro dia.
6 And God said, "Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters." And it was so.
E disse Deus: Haja expansão em meio das águas, e separe as águas das águas.
7 And God made the expanse, and separated the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse.
E fez Deus a expansão, e separou as águas que estavam debaixo da expansão, das águas que estavam sobre a expansão: e foi assim.
8 And God called the expanse Sky. And God saw that it was good. There was evening and there was morning, a second day.
E chamou Deus à expansão Céus: e foi a tarde e a manhã, o dia segundo.
9 And God said, "Let the waters under the sky be gathered to one gathering, and let the dry land appear." And it was so. And the waters under the sky gathered to their gatherings, and the dry land appeared.
E disse Deus: Juntem-se as águas que estão debaixo dos céus em um lugar, e descubra-se a porção seca; e foi assim.
10 And God called the dry land Earth, and the gatherings of the waters he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
E chamou Deus à porção seca Terra, e à reunião das águas chamou Mares; e viu Deus que era bom.
11 And God said, "Let the earth produce vegetation, plants yielding seed after its kind, and fruit trees bearing fruit with seed in it after its kind, on the earth." And it was so.
E disse Deus: Produza a terra erva verde, erva que dê semente; árvore de fruto que dê fruto segundo a sua espécie, que sua semente esteja nela, sobre a terra: e foi assim.
12 And the earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed after its kind, and fruit trees bearing fruit with seed in it after its kind, on the earth. And God saw that it was good.
E produziu a terra erva verde, erva que dá semente segundo sua natureza, e árvore que dá fruto, cuja semente está nele, segundo a sua espécie; e viu Deus que era bom.
13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day.
E foi a tarde e a manhã, o dia terceiro.
14 And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky for the illumination of the day, to give light on the earth, and to rule the day and the night, and to separate between the day and the night. And let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and for years,
E disse Deus: Haja luminares na expansão dos céus para separar o dia e a noite: e sejam por sinais, e para as estações, e para dias e anos;
15 and let them serve as lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth." And it was so.
E sejam por luminares na expansão dos céus para iluminar sobre a terra: e foi.
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.
E fez Deus os dois grandes luminares; o luminar maior para que exerça domínio no dia, e o luminar menor para que exerça domínio na noite; fez também as estrelas.
17 And God set them in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth,
E as pôs Deus na expansão dos céus, para iluminar sobre a terra,
18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
E para exercer domínio no dia e na noite, e para separar a luz e as trevas: e viu Deus que era bom.
19 There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
E foi a tarde e a manhã, o dia quarto.
20 And God said, "Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let flying creatures fly above the earth in the open expanse of the sky." And it was so.
E disse Deus: Produzam as águas répteis de alma vivente, e aves que voem sobre a terra, na expansão aberta dos céus.
21 And God created the large sea creatures, and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after its kind, and every winged flying creature after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
E criou Deus as grandes criaturas marinhas, e toda coisa viva que anda arrastando, que as águas produziram segundo a sua espécie, e toda ave de asas segundo sua espécie: e viu Deus que era bom.
22 And God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the flying creatures multiply on the earth."
E Deus os abençoou dizendo: Frutificai e multiplicai, e enchei as águas nos mares, e as aves se multipliquem na terra.
23 There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
E foi a tarde e a manhã, o dia quinto.
24 And God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after its kind: tame animals, and crawling creatures, and wild animals of the earth after its kind." And it was so.
E disse Deus: Produza a terra seres viventes segundo a sua espécie, animais e serpentes e animais da terra segundo sua espécie: e foi assim.
25 And God made the wild animals of the earth after its kind, and the tame animals after its kind, and everything that crawls on the ground after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
E fez Deus animais da terra segundo a sua espécie, e gado segundo a sua espécie, e todo animal que anda arrastando sobre a terra segundo sua espécie: e viu Deus que era bom.
26 And God said, "Let us make humankind in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the flying creatures of the sky, and over the tame animals, and over all the wild animals of the earth, and over every creature that crawls on the earth." And it was so.
E disse Deus: Façamos ao ser humano à nossa imagem, conforme nossa semelhança; e domine os peixes do mar, e as aves dos céus, e os animais, e toda a terra, e todo animal que anda arrastando sobre a terra.
27 And God created humankind in his own image. In God's image he created him; male and female he created them.
E criou Deus o ser humano à sua imagem, à imagem de Deus o criou; macho e fêmea os criou.
28 And God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the flying creatures of the sky, and over all the tame animals, and over all the wild animals of the earth, and over all the creatures that crawl on the earth."
E Deus os abençoou; e disse-lhes Deus: Frutificai e multiplicai, e enchei a terra, e subjugai-a, e dominai os peixes do mar, as aves dos céus, e todos os animais que se movem sobre a terra.
29 And God said, "Look, I have given you every plant yielding seed, which is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree, which bears fruit yielding seed. It will be your food.
E disse Deus: Eis que vos dei toda erva que dá semente, que está sobre a face de toda a terra; e toda árvore em que há fruto de árvore que dá semente, vos será para comer.
30 And to every wild animal of the earth, and to every tame animal of the earth, and to every flying creature of the sky, and to every creature that crawls on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green plant for food."
E a todo animal da terra, e a todas as aves dos céus, e a tudo o que se move sobre a terra, em que há vida, toda erva verde lhes será para comer: e foi assim.
31 And God saw everything that he had made, and look, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
E viu Deus tudo o que havia feito, e eis que era bom em grande maneira. E foi a tarde e a manhã, o dia sexto.
