Genesis 1
1 In beginning he created God the heavens and the earth.
Nan konmansman, Bondye kreye syèl la ak latè a.
2 And the earth was formlessness and emptiness and darkness [was] over [the] surface of [the] deep and [the] spirit of God [was] hovering over [the] surface of the waters.
Men latè pa t' gen fòm, li pa t' gen anyen sou li. Fènwa te kouvri toupatou. Lespri Bondye t'ap plane sou dlo ki te kouvri tout latè.
3 And he said God let it be light and there was light.
Bondye di. Se pou limyè fèt. Epi limyè te fèt.
4 And he saw God the light that [it was] good and he separated God between the light and between the darkness.
Bondye wè limyè a te bon. Bondye mete limyè a yon bò, li mete fènwa a yon lòt bò.
5 And he called God - the light day and the darkness he called night and there was evening and there was morning day one.
Bondye rele limyè a lajounen, li rele fènwa a lannwit. Yon lannwit pase, yon maten rive. Se te premye jou a.
6 And he said God let it be a firmament in [the] middle of the waters and let it be separating between waters to waters.
Bondye di ankò. Se pou gen yon vout nan mitan dlo a pou separe dlo a an de.
7 And he made God the firmament and he separated between the waters which [were] from under to the firmament and between the waters which [were] from the firmament and it was so.
Bondye fè vout la separe dlo a an de, yon pati anwo vout la, yon lòt pati anba l'. Se konsa sa te pase.
8 And he called God the firmament heaven and there was evening and there was morning a day second.
Bondye rele vout la syèl. Yon lannwit pase, yon maten rive. Se te dezyèm jou a.
9 And he said God let them gather the waters from under the heavens to a place one and let it appear the dry ground and it was so.
Bondye di ankò. Se pou dlo ki anba syèl la sanble yon sèl kote pou kote ki sèk la ka parèt. Se konsa sa te pase.
10 And he called God - the dry ground earth and [the] collection of the waters he called seas and he saw God that [it was] good.
Bondye rele kote ki sèk la tè. Li rele pil dlo a lanmè. Bondye gade sa l' te fè a, li wè l' bon.
11 And he said God let it sprout the earth vegetation plant[s] [which] bears seed seed tree[s] of fruit producing fruit to kind its which seed its [is] in it on the earth and it was so.
Bondye di. Se pou tè a pouse tout kalite plant: zèb, plant ki bay grenn, pyebwa ki bay fwi ak tout grenn yo. Se konsa sa te pase.
12 And brought forth the earth vegetation plant[s] [which] bears seed seed to kind its and tree[s] (producing *LAH(b)*) fruit which seed its [was] in it to kind its and he saw God that [it was] good.
Tè a pouse tout kalite plant: zèb, plant ki bay grenn, pyebwa ki bay fwi ak tout grenn yo. Bondye gade sa l' te fè a, li wè l' bon.
13 And there was evening and there was morning a day third.
Yon lannwit pase, yon maten rive. Se te twazyèm jou a.
14 And he said God let it be luminaries in [the] firmament of the heavens to separate between the day and between the night and they will become signs and appointed times and days and years.
Bondye di ankò. Se pou limyè parèt nan syèl la pou separe lajounen ak lannwit. Y'a sèvi pou make jou yo, lanne yo ak sezon yo.
15 And they will become luminaries in [the] firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth and it was so.
Y'a sèvi limyè nan syèl la pou klere tout latè a. Se konsa sa te pase.
16 And he made God [the] two the luminaries great the luminary great for [the] dominion of the day and the luminary small for [the] dominion of the night and the stars.
Bondye fè de gwo limyè, pi gwo a pou kòmande sou lajounen, pi piti a pou kòmande sou lannwit. Li fè zetwal yo tou.
17 And he set them God in [the] firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth.
Li mete yo nan syèl la pou klere latè a,
18 And to rule over the day and over the night and to separate between the light and between the darkness and he saw God that [it was] good.
pou kòmande sou lajounen ak sou lannwit, pou separe limyè ak fènwa. Bondye gade sa l' te fè a, li wè l' bon.
19 And there was evening and there was morning a day fourth.
Yon lannwit pase, yon maten rive. Se te katriyèm jou a.
20 And he said God let them swarm the waters swarming thing[s] creature[s] living and bird[s] let it fly above the earth on [the] surface of [the] firmament of the heavens.
Bondye di ankò. Se pou dlo yo kale anpil anpil bèt vivan. Se pou zwazo vole nan syèl la anwo tè a. Se konsa sa te pase.
21 And he created God the sea monsters great and every creature living - which creeps which they swarmed the waters to kind their and every bird of wing to kind its and he saw God that [it was] good.
Bondye kreye gwo bèt lanmè yo, tout kalite bèt vivan k'ap naje nan dlo ansanm ak tout kalite zwazo. Bondye gade sa l' te fè a, li wè l' bon.
22 And he blessed them God saying be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters in the seas and the bird[s] let it multiply on the earth.
Bondye beni yo, li di. Fè pitit, fè anpil anpil pitit, plen dlo lanmè a. Se pou zwazo yo fè anpil anpil pitit tout sou tè a.
23 And there was evening and there was morning a day fifth.
Yon lannwit pase, yon maten rive. Se te senkyèm jou a.
24 And he said God let it produce the earth creature[s] living to kind its livestock and creeping thing[s] and animal[s] of [the] earth to kind its and it was so.
Bondye di ankò. Se pou tè a kale tout kalite bèt vivan, bèt yo gade, bèt ki trennen sou vant, bèt nan bwa. Se konsa sa te pase.
25 And he made God [the] animal[s] of the earth to kind its and the livestock to kind its and every creeping thing of the ground to kind its and he saw God that [it was] good.
Bondye fè tout kalite bèt, bèt nan bwa, bèt yo gade, bèt ki trennen sou vant. Li gade sa l' te fè a, li wè l' bon.
26 And he said God let us make humankind in image our according to likeness our and they may rule over [the] fish of the sea and over [the] bird[s] of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing which creeps on the earth.
Bondye di ankò. Ann fè moun. N'ap fè l' pòtre ak nou, pou li sanble ak nou. La gen pouvwa sou pwason ki nan lanmè yo, sou zwazo ki nan syèl la, sou tout bèt yo gade, sou tout latè, sou tout bèt nan bwa, sou tout bèt ki trennen sou vant sou tè a.
27 And he created God - humankind in own image his in [the] image of God he created it male and female he created them.
Bondye kreye moun. Li fè l' pòtre ak li. Li kreye yo gason ak fi.
28 And he blessed them God and he said to them God be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and rule over [the] fish of the sea and over [the] bird[s] of the heavens and over every animal which creeps on the earth.
Li ba yo benediksyon, li di. Fè pitit, fè anpil anpil pitit mete sou tè a. Donte tè a. Mwen ban nou pouvwa sou pwason ki nan lanmè, sou zwazo ki nan syèl la, ak sou tout bèt vivan k'ap mache sou tè a.
29 And he said God here! I give to you every plant - [which] bears seed seed which [is] on [the] surface of all the earth and every tree which in it [is the] fruit of a tree [which] bears seed seed to you will be[long] to food.
Bondye di. Gade. Mwen ban nou tout kalite plant ki bay grenn ak tout kalite pyebwa ki bay fwi ak grenn pou nou manje.
30 And to every animal of the earth and to every bird of the heavens and to every - creeping [thing] on the earth which [is] in it life living all greenery of plant[s] to food and it was so.
Men, tout bèt ki sou tè a, tout zwazo ki nan syèl la, tout bèt ki trennen sou vant, wi tout bèt vivan, m'ap ba yo zèb vèt pou yo manje. Se konsa sa te pase.
31 And he saw God all that he had made and there! [it was] good very and there was evening and there was morning [the] day sixth.
Bondye gade sa l' te fè a, li wè l' bon nèt. Yon lannwit pase, yon maten rive. Se te sizyèm jou a.
