Genesis 1
1 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
No início, Deus criou os céus e a terra.
2 Now, the earth, had become waste and wild, and darkness, was on the face of the roaring deep, —but, the Spirit of God, was brooding on the face of the waters,
A terra estava sem forma e vazia. A escuridão estava na superfície das profundezas e o Espírito de Deus pairava sobre a superfície das águas.
3 And God said—Light, be, And light was.
Deus disse: “Que haja luz”, e houve luz.
4 And God saw the light, that it was, good, and God divided the light, from the, darkness;
Deus viu a luz, e viu que ela era boa. Deus dividiu a luz das trevas.
5 and God called the light, day, but the darkness, called he, night. So it was evening—and it was morning, one day.
Deus chamou a luz de “dia”, e a escuridão de “noite”. Havia a noite e havia a manhã, o primeiro dia.
6 And God said, Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it be a means of dividing, between waters and waters,
Deus disse: “Que haja uma extensão no meio das águas, e que ela divida as águas das águas”.
7 And God made the expanse, and it divided between the waters that were under the expanse and the waters that were above the expanse. And it was so.
Deus fez a extensão, e dividiu as águas que estavam sob a extensão das águas que estavam acima da extensão; e assim foi.
8 And God called the expanse, heavens. So it was evening—and it was morning, a, second day.
Deus chamou a vastidão de “céu”. Havia a noite e havia a manhã, um segundo dia.
9 And God said—Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together, into one place, and let the dry—ground appear. And it was so.
Deus disse: “Que as águas sob o céu sejam reunidas num só lugar, e que a terra seca apareça;” e assim foi.
10 And God called, the dry-ground, land, but the gathering together of the waters, called he seas. And God saw that it was good.
Deus chamou a terra seca de “terra”, e a reunião das águas ele chamou de “mares”. Deus viu que era bom.
11 And God said—Let the land put-forth vegetation—herb yielding seed, fruit-tree, bearing fruit after its kind, whose seed is within it on the land. And it was so,
Deus disse: “Que a terra produza grama, ervas que produzam sementes, e árvores frutíferas que dêem frutos depois de sua espécie, com suas sementes dentro dela, na terra;” e assim foi.
12 And the land brought-forth vegetation—herb yielding seed after its kind, and tree bearing fruit, whose seed is within it, after its kind, And God saw that it was good.
A terra produziu grama, ervas produzindo sementes depois de sua espécie, e árvores dando frutos, com suas sementes dentro dela, depois de sua espécie; e Deus viu que era boa.
13 So it was evening—and it was morning, a third day.
Havia a noite e havia a manhã, um terceiro dia.
14 And God said—Let there be luminaries in the expanse of the heavens, to divide between the day and the night, —and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;
Deus disse: “Que haja luzes na extensão do céu para dividir o dia da noite; e que sejam para que os sinais marquem as estações, os dias e os anos;
15 yea let them be for luminaries in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth. And it was so.
e que sejam para que as luzes na extensão do céu dêem luz sobre a terra;” e assim foi.
16 And God made the two great luminaries, —the greater luminary to rule the day, and the lesser luminary to rule the night, also the stars.
Deus fez as duas grandes luzes: a luz maior para governar o dia, e a luz menor para governar a noite. Ele também fez as estrelas.
17 And God set them in the expanse of the heavens, —to give light on the earth;
Deus as colocou na vastidão do céu para dar luz à 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 governar o dia e a noite, e para dividir a luz da escuridão. Deus viu que era bom.
19 So it was evening—and it was morning, a fourth day.
Havia a noite e havia a manhã, um quarto dia.
20 And God said—Let the waters swarm with an abundance of living soul, and, birds, shall fly over the earth, over the face of the expanse of the heavens.
Deus disse: “Deixem as águas transbordar de seres vivos, e deixem as aves voar sobre a terra na extensão aberta do céu”.
21 And God created the great sea-monsters, —and every living soul that moveth—[with] which the waters swarmed after their kind and every winged bird—after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Deus criou as grandes criaturas marinhas e todos os seres vivos que se movem, com os quais as águas transbordaram, depois de sua espécie, e cada ave alada depois de sua espécie. Deus viu que era bom.
22 And God blessed them, saying, —Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let, the birds, multiply in the land.
Deus os abençoou, dizendo: “Sede fecundos e multiplicai-vos, e enchei as águas dos mares, e deixai as aves multiplicarem-se na terra”.
23 So it was evening—and it was morning, a fifth day.
Havia a noite e havia a manhã, um quinto dia.
24 And God said—Let the land, bring forth, living soul, after its kind, tame-beast and creeping thing and wild-beast, of the land, after its kind. And it was so.
Deus disse: “Que a terra produza seres vivos segundo sua espécie, gado, coisas rastejantes e animais da terra segundo sua espécie”; e assim foi.
25 And God made the wild-beast of the land after its kind, and the tame-beast after its kind, and every creeping thing of the ground, after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Deus fez os animais da terra depois de sua espécie, e o gado depois de sua espécie, e tudo o que rasteja no solo depois de sua espécie. Deus viu que era bom.
26 And God said—Let us make man in our image after our likeness—and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the bird of the heavens and over the tame-beast—and over all the land, and over every creeping thing, that creepeth on the land.
Deus disse: “Vamos fazer o homem à nossa imagem, à nossa semelhança”. Que tenham domínio sobre os peixes do mar, e sobre as aves do céu, e sobre o gado, e sobre toda a terra, e sobre cada coisa rasteira que se arrepia sobre a terra”.
27 And God created the man in his own image, In the image of God, created he him, —Male and female, created he, them.
Deus criou o homem à sua própria imagem. À imagem de Deus ele o criou; macho e fêmea ele os criou”.
28 And God blessed them, and God said to them Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, —and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the bird of the heavens, and over every living thing that moveth on the land.
Deus os abençoou. Deus lhes disse: “Sede fecundos, multiplicai-vos, enchei a terra e sujeitai-a”. Tenham domínio sobre os peixes do mar, sobre as aves do céu e sobre todo ser vivo que se move sobre a terra”.
29 And God said—Lo! I have given to you—every herb yielding seed which is on the face of all the land, and every tree wherein is the fruit of a tree yielding seed, —to you, shall it be, for food;
Deus disse: “Eis que vos dei toda erva que dá semente, que está na superfície de toda a terra, e toda árvore que dá fruto que dá semente”. Será seu alimento”.
30 and to every living thing of the land—and to every bird of the heavens, and to every thing that moveth on the land, wherein is a living soul, every green herb for food. And it was so.
A cada animal da terra, e a cada ave do céu, e a tudo que rasteja na terra, na qual há vida, eu dei toda erva verde para alimento”; e assim foi.
31 And God saw every thing which he had made, and lo! it was very good. So it was evening—and it was morning, the sixth day.
Deus viu tudo o que tinha feito e, eis que era muito bom. Havia a noite e havia a manhã, um sexto dia.
