Genesis 1
1 Long, long ago God created the heavens and the earth.
Nang pasimula ay nilikha ng Dios ang langit at ang lupa.
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.
At ang lupa ay walang anyo at walang laman; at ang kadiliman ay sumasa ibabaw ng kalaliman; at ang Espiritu ng Dios ay sumasa ibabaw ng tubig.
3 God said, “I want light to shine!” And light shone.
At sinabi ng Dios Magkaroon ng liwanag; at nagkaroon ng liwanag.
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.
At nakita ng Dios ang liwanag na mabuti, at inihiwalay ng Dios ang liwanag sa kadiliman.
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’.
At tinawag ng Dios ang liwanag na Araw, at tinawag niya ang kadiliman na Gabi. At nagkahapon at nagkaumaga ang unang araw.
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!”
At sinabi ng Dios, Magkaroon ng isang kalawakan sa gitna ng tubig, at mahiwalay ang tubig sa kapuwa tubig.
7 And that is what happened. God gave to the space the name ‘sky’.
At ginawa ng Dios ang kalawakan, at inihiwalay ang tubig na nasa ilalim ng kalawakan, sa tubig na nasa itaas ng kalawakan: at nagkagayon.
8 Then there was another evening, which was followed by another morning. He called that period of time ‘the second day’.
At tinawag ng Dios ang kalawakan na Langit. At nagkahapon at nagkaumaga ang ikalawang araw.
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.
At sinabi ng Dios, Mapisan ang tubig na nasa silong ng langit sa isang dako, at lumitaw ang katuyuan, at nagkagayon.
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.
At tinawag ng Dios ang katuyuan na Lupa, at ang kapisanan ng tubig ay tinawag niyang mga Dagat: at nakita ng Dios na mabuti.
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.”
At sinabi ng Dios, Sibulan ang lupa ng damo, pananim na nagkakabinhi, at punong kahoy na namumunga ayon sa kaniyang pagkakahoy, na taglay ang kaniyang binhi sa ibabaw ng lupa, at nagkagayon.
12 Then plants grew on the earth; each kind of plant began to produce its own kind of seed.
At ang lupa ay sinibulan ng damo, pananim na nagkakabinhi, ayon sa kaniyang pagkapananim, at ng punong kahoy na namumunga, na taglay ang kaniyang binhi, ayon sa kaniyang pagkakahoy, at nakita ng Dios na mabuti.
13 Then there was another evening which was followed by another morning. God called that period of time ‘the third day’.
At nagkahapon at nagkaumaga ang ikatlong araw.
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.
At sinabi ng Dios, Magkaroon ng mga tanglaw sa kalawakan ng langit upang maghiwalay ng araw sa gabi; at maging pinakatanda, at pinakabahagi ng panahon, ng mga araw at ng mga taon:
15 I want them also to be like lights in the sky that will shine on the earth.” And that is what happened.
At maging pinakatanglaw sa kalawakan ng langit, upang tumanglaw sa ibabaw ng lupa: at nagkagayon.
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.
At nilikha ng Dios ang dalawang malaking tanglaw; ang malaking tanglaw ay upang magpuno sa araw, at ang maliit na tanglaw ay upang magpuno sa gabi: nilikha rin niya ang mga bituin.
17 God set all of them in the sky to shine on the earth,
At mga inilagay ng Dios sa kalawakan ng langit, upang tumanglaw sa ibabaw ng lupa,
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.
At upang magpuno sa araw at sa gabi, at upang maghiwalay ng liwanag sa kadiliman: at nakita ng Dios na mabuti.
19 Then there was another evening which was followed by another morning. He called that period of time ‘the fourth day’.
At nagkahapon at nagkaumaga ang ikaapat na araw.
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.”
At sinabi ng Dios, Bukalan ng sagana ang tubig ng mga gumagalaw na kinapal na may buhay, at magsilipad ang mga ibon sa itaas ng lupa sa luwal na kalawakan ng himpapawid.
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.
At nilikha ng Dios ang malalaking hayop sa dagat, at ang bawa't may buhay na kinapal na gumagalaw, na ibinukal na sagana ng tubig, ayon sa kanikaniyang uri at ang lahat na may pakpak na ibon, ayon sa kanikaniyang uri: at nakita ng Dios na mabuti.
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.
At mga binasbasan ng Dios, na sinabi, Kayo'y magpalaanakin, at magpakarami, at inyong punuin ang tubig sa mga dagat, at magpakarami ang mga ibon sa lupa.
23 Then there was another evening that was followed by another morning. He called that period of time ‘the fifth day’.
At nagkahapon at nagkaumaga ang ikalimang araw.
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.
At sinabi ng Dios, Bukalan ang lupa ng mga may buhay na kinapal, ayon sa kanikaniyang uri ng hayop at ng mga kinapal na umuusad, at ng mga ganid sa lupa, ayon sa kanikaniyang uri: at nagkagayon.
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.
At nilikha ng Dios ang ganid sa lupa ayon sa kaniyang uri, at ang hayop ayon sa kaniyang uri, at ang bawa't umuusad sa ibabaw ng lupa ayon sa kanikaniyang uri: at nakita ng Dios na mabuti.
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.”
At sinabi ng Dios, Lalangin natin ang tao sa ating larawan, ayon sa ating wangis: at magkaroon sila ng kapangyarihan sa mga isda sa dagat, at sa mga ibon sa himpapawid, at sa mga hayop, at sa buong lupa, at sa bawa't umuusad, na nagsisiusad sa ibabaw ng lupa.
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.
At nilalang ng Dios ang tao ayon sa kaniyang sariling larawan, ayon sa larawan ng Dios siya nilalang; nilalang niya sila na lalake at babae.
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.”
At sila'y binasbasan ng Dios, at sa kanila'y sinabi ng Dios, Kayo'y magpalaanakin, at magpakarami, at kalatan ninyo ang lupa, at inyong supilin; at magkaroon kayo ng kapangyarihan sa mga isda sa dagat, at sa mga ibon sa himpapawid, at sa bawa't hayop na gumagalaw sa ibabaw ng lupa.
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.
At sinabi ng Dios, Narito, ibinigay ko sa inyo ang bawa't pananim na nagkakabinhi, na nasa ibabaw ng balat ng lupa, at ang bawa't punong kahoy na may bunga ng punong kahoy na nagkakabinhi; sa inyo'y magiging pagkain:
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.
At sa bawa't hayop sa lupa, at sa bawa't ibon sa himpapawid; at sa bawa't nagsisiusad sa ibabaw ng lupa na may buhay ay ibinigay ko ang lahat na pananim na sariwa na pinakapagkain; at nagkagayon.
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’.
At nakita ng Dios ang lahat ng kaniyang nilikha, at, narito, napakabuti. At nagkahapon at nagkaumaga ang ikaanim na araw.
