Genesis 1
1 Long, long ago God created the heavens and the earth.
V začetku je Bog ustvaril nebo in zemljo.
2 When he began to create the earth, it was shapeless and completely desolate/chaotic. Darkness covered the deep water that surrounded the earth. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the water.
Zemlja pa je bila brez oblike ter prazna in tema je bila na obličju globin in Božji Duh se je premikal na obličju vodá.
3 God said, “I want light to shine!” And light shone.
[1. dan] Bog je rekel: »Naj bo svetloba.« In bila je svetloba.
4 God was pleased with the light. Then he made the light to shine in some places, and in other places there was still darkness.
Bog je videl svetlobo, da je bila dobra in Bog je ločil svetlobo od teme.
5 He gave to the light the name ‘day’, and he gave to the darkness the name ‘night’. After that, there was an evening which was followed by a morning. He called that whole period of time ‘the first day’.
Bog je svetlobo imenoval Dan, temo pa je imenoval Noč. In večer in jutro sta bila prvi dan.
6 Then God said, “I command that there be an empty space like a huge dome to separate the water that is above it from the water on the earth that is below it!”
[2. dan] Bog je rekel: »Naj bo nebesni svod na sredi vodá in naj razdeli vode od vodá.«
7 And that is what happened. God gave to the space the name ‘sky’.
Bog je naredil nebesni svod in razdelil vode, ki so bile pod nebesnim svodom od vodá, ki so bile nad nebesnim svodom. In bilo je tako.
8 Then there was another evening, which was followed by another morning. He called that period of time ‘the second day’.
Bog je nebesni svod imenoval Nebo. In večer in jutro sta bila drugi dan.
9 Then God said, “I want the water that is below the sky to come together, and dry ground to appear and rise above the water.” And that is what happened.
[3. dan] Bog je rekel: »Naj bodo vode pod nebom zbrane skupaj na en kraj in naj se pojavi kopna zemlja.« In bilo je tako.
10 God gave to the ground the name ‘earth’, and he gave to the water that came together the name ‘oceans’. God was pleased with the earth and the oceans.
Bog je kopno zemljo imenoval Zemlja, zbiranje skupnih vodá pa je imenoval Morja, in Bog je videl, da je bilo to dobro.
11 Then God said, “I want the earth to produce plants, including plants that will produce seeds and trees that will produce fruit. Each kind of tree will bear its own kind of fruit.”
Bog je rekel: »Naj zemlja rodi travo, zelišče, ki obrodi seme in sadno drevo, ki obrodi sad po svoji vrsti, čigar seme je v njem samem na zemlji.« In bilo je tako.
12 Then plants grew on the earth; each kind of plant began to produce its own kind of seed.
Zemlja je rodila travo in zelišče, ki obrodi seme po svoji vrsti in drevo, ki obrodi sad po svoji vrsti, čigar seme je v njem samem, po njegovi vrsti. In Bog je videl, da je bilo to dobro.
13 Then there was another evening which was followed by another morning. God called that period of time ‘the third day’.
In večer in jutro sta bila tretji dan.
14 Then God said, “I want a sun, a moon, and many stars to shine in the sky. The sun will shine in the daytime and the moon and stars will shine during the nighttime. By the changes in their appearance they will indicate the various seasons (OR, the times for special celebrations), and will enable people to know when days and years begin.
[4. dan] Bog je rekel: »Naj bodo svetilke na nebesnem svodu neba, da razdelijo dan od noči; in naj bodo za znamenja, za letne dobe, za dneve in leta,
15 I want them also to be like lights in the sky that will shine on the earth.” And that is what happened.
in naj bodo za svetilke na nebesnem svodu neba, da na zemljo dajejo svetlobo.« In bilo je tako.
16 God made two of them that were like big lights. The bigger one, the sun, shines during the day and the smaller one, the moon, shines during the night. He also made the stars.
Bog je naredil dve veliki luči: svetlejšo luč, da vlada dnevu in šibkejšo luč, da vlada noči; naredil je tudi zvezde.
17 God set all of them in the sky to shine on the earth,
Bog jih je postavil v nebesni svod neba, da na zemljo dajejo svetlobo
18 to rule the day and the night, and to separate the light of the daytime from the darkness of the nighttime. God was pleased with these things he had made.
in da vladajo nad dnevom in nad nočjo in da ločijo svetlobo od teme. In Bog je videl, da je bilo to dobro.
19 Then there was another evening which was followed by another morning. He called that period of time ‘the fourth day’.
In večer in jutro sta bila četrti dan.
20 Then God said, “I want many creatures to live in all the oceans, and I also want birds to fly in the sky above the earth.”
[5. dan] Bog je rekel: »Naj vode obilno rodijo gibljivo ustvarjeno bitje, ki ima življenje in perjad, da lahko leti nad zemljo v odprtem nebesnem svodu neba.«
21 So God created huge sea creatures and every other kind of creature that moves in the water, and caused them to live in all the oceans. He also created many kinds of birds. God was pleased with all those creatures.
Bog je ustvaril velikanske kite in vsako živo ustvarjeno bitje, ki se giblje, ki so jih vode obilno rodile po svoji vrsti in vsako krilato perjad po svoji vrsti. In Bog je videl, da je bilo to dobro.
22 God blessed them. He said, “Produce offspring and become very numerous. I want the creatures in the water to live in all the oceans, and birds also to become very numerous.” And that is what happened.
Bog jih je blagoslovil, rekoč: »Bodite rodovitne in se množite ter napolnite vode v morjih in naj se perjad pomnoži na zemlji.«
23 Then there was another evening that was followed by another morning. He called that period of time ‘the fifth day’.
In večer in jutro sta bila peti dan.
24 Then God said, “I want various kinds of creatures to appear on the earth. There will be many kinds of (livestock/domestic animals), creatures that scurry across the ground, and large wild animals.” And that is what happened.
[6. dan] Bog je rekel: »Naj zemlja rodi živo ustvarjeno bitje po svoji vrsti, živino in plazečo stvar in žival zemlje po svoji vrsti.« In bilo je tako.
25 God made all kinds of wild animals and (livestock/domestic animals) and all kinds of creatures that scurry across the ground. God was pleased with all these creatures.
Bog je naredil žival zemlje po svoji vrsti in živino po svoji vrsti in vsako stvar, ki se plazi po zemlji, po svoji vrsti. In Bog je videl, da je bilo to dobro.
26 Then God said, “Now we will make human beings that will be like us in many ways. I want them to rule over the fish in the sea, over the birds, over all the (livestock/domestic animals), and over all the other creatures that scurry across the ground.”
Bog je rekel: »Naredimo človeka po naši podobi, po naši podobnosti in naj imata gospostvo nad ribo morja in nad zračno perjadjo in nad živino in nad vso zemljo in nad vsako plazečo stvarjo, ki se plazi na zemlji.«
27 So God created human beings that were like him in many ways. He made them to be like himself. He created some to be male and some to be female.
Tako je Bog ustvaril človeka po svoji lastni podobi, po Božji podobi ga je ustvaril Bog. Moškega in žensko ju je ustvaril.
28 God blessed them, saying, “Produce many children, who will live all over the earth and rule over it. I want them to rule over the fish and the birds and over all creatures that scurry across the ground.”
Bog ju je blagoslovil in Bog jima je rekel: »Bodita rodovitna in se množita in napolnita zemljo ter si jo podjarmita in imejta gospostvo nad ribami morja in nad zračno perjadjo in nad vsako živo stvarjo, ki se giblje na zemlji.«
29 God said to the humans, “Listen! I have given you all the plants that produce seeds, all over the earth, and all the trees that have seeds in their fruit. All these things are for you to eat.
Bog je rekel: »Glejta, dal sem vama vsako zeleno zelišče, ki obrodi seme, ki je na obličju vse zemlje in vsako drevo, na katerem je sad drevesa, ki obrodi seme; naj vama bo to za hrano.
30 I have given all the green plants to all the wild animals and to the birds and to all the creatures that scurry across the ground, to everything that breathes, for them to eat.” And that is what happened.
Vsaki zemeljski živali in vsaki zračni perjadi in vsaki stvari, ki se plazi na zemlji, v kateri je življenje, sem dal za hrano vsako zeleno zelišče.« In bilo je tako.
31 God was pleased with everything that he had made. Truly, it was all very good. Then there was another evening, that was followed by another morning. He called that period of time ‘the sixth day’.
Bog je videl vsako stvar, ki jo je naredil, in glej, to je bilo zelo dobro. In večer in jutro sta bila šesti dan.
