Genesis 2
1 Thus were finished the heavens and the earth and all their host.
Na ka oti te rangi me te whenua me o reira mano katoa.
2 Thus God finished, on the seventh day his work which he had made, and rested, on the seventh day, from all his work which he had made.
A no te whitu o nga ra i oti ai i te Atua tana mahi i mahi ai; na ka okioki ia i te ra whitu i ana mahi katoa i mahia e ia.
3 And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it, —because therein, rested he from all his work which God, by creating, had made.
Na ka whakapaingia e te Atua te ra whitu, whakatapua ana hoki e ia: mona i okioki i taua ra i ana mahi katoa i oti i te Atua te hanga.
4 These are the geneses of the heavens and the earth when they were created, —in the day when Yahweh God made earth and heavens.
Ko nga whakatupuranga enei o te rangi, o te whenua, i te hanganga ai, i te ra i hanga ai e Ihowa, e te Atua, te whenua me te rangi.
5 Now, no bush of the field, as yet—was in the earth, and, no herb of the field, as yet had sprung up, —because Yahweh God had not sent rain on the earth, and, man, was there none to till the ground;
Kahore ano hoki tetahi rakau riki o te parae i te whenua, kahore ano tetahi otaota o te parae kia pihi noa: kahore hoki a Ihowa, te Atua, i mea kia ua ki te whenua, a kahore rawa he tangata hei mahi i te oneone;
6 but, a vapour, went up from the earth, —and watered all the face of the ground.
Engari i pupu ake he kohu i te whenua, na reira i whakamakuku te mata katoa o te oneone.
7 So then Yahweh God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed in his nostrils the breath of life—and man became a living soul.
Na ka whakaahuatia te tangata e Ihowa, e te Atua, he puehu no te oneone, a whakahangia ana e ia ki roto ki ona pongaihu te manawa ora; a ka wairua ora te tangata.
8 And Yahweh God planted a garden in Eden, on the east, —and put there the man whom he had formed.
Na ka whakatokia e Ihowa, e te Atua, tetahi kari ki te taha ki te rawhiti, ki Erene; a whakanohoia iho e ia ki reira te tangata i hanga e ia.
9 And Yahweh God, caused to spring up, out of the ground, every tree 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.
A i whakatupuria e Ihowa, e te Atua, i roto i te oneone nga rakau katoa he mea ahuareka ki te titiro, he pai hoki hei kai; ko te rakau hoki o te ora ki waenganui o te kari, me te rakau o te matauranga ki te pai, ki te kino.
10 Now, a river, was coming forth out of Eden, to water the garden, —and, from thence, it parted, and became four heads,
I rere mai ano he awa i Erene hei whakamakuku i te kari; a i reira ka manganga e wha nga tino awa.
11 The name of the one, is Pishon, —the same, is that which surroundeth all the land of Havilah, where is gold;
Ko te ingoa o te tuatahi ko Pihona; ko ia tera e taiawhio ra i te whenua katoa o Hawira, he koura kei reira;
12 moreover the gold of that land, is good, —there, is the bdellium, and the beryl stone,
He pai hoki te koura o taua whenua: kei reira te teriuma me te kohatu onika.
13 And the name of the second river, is Gihon, —the same, is that which surroundeth all the land of Cush,
Ko te ingoa o te rua o nga awa ko Kihona: ko ia tera e taiawhio ra i te whenua katoa o Etiopia.
14 And, the name of the third river, is Hiddekel, the same, is that which goeth in front of Assyria; and the fourth river, is Euphrates.
Ko te ingoa o te toru o nga awa ko Hirekere; ko te mea tera e rere ra i mua o Ahiria. Ko Uparati te wha o nga awa.
15 So Yahweh God took the man, —and placed him in the garden of Eden, to till it and to keep it.
Na ka tango a Ihowa, te Atua, i te tangata, a whakanohoia ana e ia ki te kari o Erene, hei ngaki, hei tiaki hoki reira.
16 And Yahweh God laid command on the man, saying, —Of every tree of the garden, thou mayest eat;
Na ka ako a Ihowa, te Atua, ki te tangata, ka mea, E pai ana kia kai noa atu koe i nga hua o nga rakau katoa o te kari:
17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it, —for in the day thou eatest thereof, thou shalt die.
Ko te rakau ia o te matauranga ki te pai, ki te kino, kaua e kainga tetahi o ona hua; ko te ra e kai ai koe i tetahi o ona hua, ka mate koe, mate rawa.
18 And Yahweh God said, It is, not good, that the man should remain alone, —I will make for him a helper as his counterpart.
Na ka mea a Ihowa, te Atua, E kore e pai kia noho te tangata ko ia anake; me hanga e ahau tetahi hoa pai mona.
19 Now Yahweh God had formed from the ground every living thing of the field and every bird of the heavens, which he brought in unto the man, that he might see what he should call it, —and, whatsoever the man should call it—any living soul, that, should be the name thereof.
Na he mea whakaahua mai na Ihowa, na te Atua, i roto i te oneone nga kirehe katoa o te parae, me nga manu katoa o te rangi; a kawea mai ana e ia ki a Arama, kia kitea ai te ingoa e huaina e ia ki a ratou: a ko a Arama i hua ai ki nga mea ora kat oa, hei ingoa era mo ratou.
20 So the man gave names to all the tame-beasts, and to the birds of the heavens, and to all the wild-beasts of the field, —but, for man, had there not been found a helper as his counterpart.
Na ka huaina e Arama he ingoa mo nga kararehe katoa, mo nga manu o te rangi, mo nga kirehe katoa hoki o te parae; ko Arama ia kahore i kitea tetahi hoa pai mona.
21 So Yahweh God caused a deep sleep to fall on the man, and he slept, —and he took one of his ribs, and closed up flesh instead thereof.
Na ka mea a Ihowa, te Atua, kia parangia a Arama e te moe, a moe ana ia: na tangohia ana e ia tetahi o ona rara, a whakatutakina atu ana te kikokiko hei whakakapi mo reira;
22 And Yahweh God builded the rib which he had taken from the man, into a woman, and brought her in unto the man.
Na ka hanga a Ihowa, te Atua, i te rara i tangohia mai ra e ia i roto i a Arama hei wahine, a kawea ana e ia ki a Arama.
23 And the man said, This, one, now, is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh! This, one shall be called Woman, for, out of a man, hath this one been taken.
A ka mea a Arama, Katahi ano ki tenei te wheua o roto o oku wheua, me te kikokiko o roto o oku kikokiko: me hua ia ko te Wahine, nona hoki i tangohia mai i roto i te Tangata.
24 For this cause, will a man leave his father and his mother, and cleave unto his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
No konei te tangata ka whakarere i tona papa me tona whaea, a ka piri ki tana wahine: a hei kikokiko kotahi raua.
25 And they were both of them naked, the man and his wife, —and put not each other to shame.
A e tu tahanga ana raua tokorua, te tangata me tana wahine, kihai hoki i whakama.
