Genesis 2
1 That is the way God created the heavens and the earth.
Os céus, a terra e toda a sua vasta gama foram terminados.
2 By the time it was the seventh day, God had finished the work of creating everything, so he did not work any more on that day.
No sétimo dia, Deus terminou seu trabalho que havia feito; e descansou no sétimo dia de todo o seu trabalho que havia feito.
3 God blessed each seventh day, and he set those days apart to be special days, because on the seventh day God did not work any more, after finishing all his work of creating everything.
Deus abençoou o sétimo dia e o tornou santo, porque descansou nele de todo o seu trabalho de criação que havia feito.
4 That is how God created the heavens and the earth. God, whose name is Yahweh, made the heavens and the earth.
Esta é a história das gerações dos céus e da terra quando foram criados, no dia em que Javé Deus fez a terra e os céus.
5 At first there were no plants growing, because Yahweh God had not yet caused rain to fall on the ground. Furthermore, there was no one to till the ground for planting crops.
Nenhuma planta do campo ainda estava na terra, e nenhuma erva do campo ainda havia brotado; pois Javé Deus não havia causado a chuva na terra. Não havia um homem para cultivar o solo,
6 Instead, mist rose up from the ground, so that it watered the surface of the ground.
mas uma névoa subiu da terra, e regou toda a superfície do solo.
7 Then Yahweh God took some soil and formed a man. He breathed into the man’s nostrils his own breath that gives life, and as a result the man became a living person.
Yahweh Deus formou o homem do pó da terra, e soprou em suas narinas o sopro da vida; e o homem se tornou uma alma viva.
8 Yahweh God made a park/garden in a place named Eden, which was east of the land of Canaan, and he put there the man that he had created.
Yahweh Deus plantou um jardim ao leste, no Éden, e ali colocou o homem que havia formado.
9 Yahweh God also put there every kind of tree that is beautiful to see and that produced fruit that was good to eat. He also placed in the middle of the park/garden a tree [whose fruit would enable those who ate it] to live forever. He also placed there another tree whose fruit would enable those who ate it to know what actions were good [to do] and what actions were evil [to do].
Do solo Javé Deus fez crescer toda árvore agradável à vista e boa para o alimento, incluindo a árvore da vida no meio do jardim e a árvore do conhecimento do bem e do mal.
10 A river flowed from Eden to provide water for the park/garden. Outside of Eden, the river divided into four rivers.
Um rio saiu do Éden para regar o jardim; e dali se separou, e se tornou a nascente de quatro rios.
11 The name of the first river is Pishon. That river flows through all the land of Havilah, where there is gold.
O nome do primeiro é Pishon: corre por toda a terra de Havilah, onde há ouro;
12 That gold (is very pure/has no impurities in it). There is [also a sweet-smelling gum called] bdellium, and valuable stones called onyx.
e o ouro daquela terra é bom. O Bdellium e a pedra ônix também estão lá.
13 The name of the second river is Gihon. That river flows through all the land of Cain.
O nome do segundo rio é Gihon. É o mesmo rio que corre por toda a terra de Cush.
14 The name of the third river is Tigris. It flows east of [the city of] Asshur. The name of the fourth river is Euphrates.
O nome do terceiro rio é Hiddekel. Este é o que corre na frente da Assíria. O quarto rio é o Eufrates.
15 Yahweh God took the man and put him in Eden park/garden to till/cultivate it and take care of it.
Yahweh Deus tomou o homem e o colocou no jardim do Éden para cultivá-lo e guardá-lo.
16 But Yahweh said to him, “You must not eat the fruit of the tree that will enable you to know what actions are good to do and what actions are evil to do. If you eat any fruit from that tree, on that day your relationship with me will end. But I will permit you to eat the fruit of any of the other trees in the park/garden.”
Javé Deus ordenou ao homem, dizendo: “Podeis comer livremente de toda árvore do jardim;
mas não comereis da árvore do conhecimento do bem e do mal; porque no dia em que dela comerdes, certamente morrereis”.
18 Then Yahweh God said, “It is not good for this man to be alone. So I will make someone who will be a suitable partner for him.”
Yahweh Deus disse: “Não é bom para o homem estar sozinho”. Vou fazer dele um ajudante comparável a ele”.
19 Yahweh God had taken some soil and had formed from it all kinds of animals and birds, and he brought them to the man to hear what names he would give them.
Do chão Yahweh Deus formou cada animal do campo, e cada ave do céu, e os trouxe ao homem para ver o que ele os chamaria. O que quer que o homem chamasse cada ser vivo, tornou-se seu nome.
20 Then the man gave names to all the kinds of livestock and birds and wild animals, but none of these creatures was a partner that was suitable for the man.
O homem deu nomes a todo o gado, e às aves do céu, e a todos os animais do campo; mas para o homem não foi encontrado um ajudante comparável a ele.
21 So Yahweh God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep. While the man was sleeping, Yahweh took out one of the man’s ribs. Then he immediately closed the opening in his body [and healed it].
Yahweh Deus fez com que o homem caísse num sono profundo. Enquanto o homem dormia, ele pegou uma de suas costelas e fechou a carne em seu lugar.
22 Yahweh then made a woman from the rib that he had taken from the man’s body, and he brought her to the man.
Yahweh Deus fez uma mulher da costela que ele havia tirado do homem, e a trouxe ao homem.
23 The man exclaimed, “[Wow]! This is truly (someone like me/what I was looking for!) She is truly from my bones and from my flesh. So I will call her woman, because she was taken from me, a man.”
O homem disse: “Isto agora é osso dos meus ossos, e carne da minha carne”. Ela será chamada 'mulher,' porque foi tirada do homem”.
24 [The first woman was taken from the man’s body, ] so that is why when a man and a woman marry, they must leave their parents. The man will join very closely to his wife, so that the two of them will be as though they are one person.
Portanto, um homem deixará seu pai e sua mãe, e se unirá à sua esposa, e eles serão uma só carne.
25 Although the man and his wife were naked, they were not ashamed about that.
O homem e sua esposa estavam ambos nus, e não tinham vergonha.
