Genesis 2
1 Then the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the living things that filled them.
Igitur perfecti sunt caeli et terra, et omnis ornatus eorum.
2 On the seventh day God came to the end of his work which he had done, and so he rested on the seventh day from all his work.
Complevitque Deus die septimo opus suum quod fecerat: et requievit die septimo ab universo opere quod patrarat.
3 God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it he rested from all his work which he had done in his creation.
Et benedixit diei septimo; et sanctificavit illum: quia in ipso cessaverat ab omni opere suo quod creavit Deus ut faceret.
4 These were the events concerning the heavens and the earth, when they were created, on the day that Yahweh God made the earth and the heavens.
Istae sunt generationes caeli et terrae, quando creata sunt, in die quo fecit Dominus Deus caelum et terram:
5 No bush of the field was yet in the earth, and no plant of the field had yet sprouted, for Yahweh God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was no man to cultivate the ground.
Et omne virgultum agri antequam oriretur in terra, omnemque herbam regionis priusquam germinaret: non enim pluerat Dominus Deus super terram, et homo non erat qui operaretur terram:
6 But a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground.
Sed fons ascendebat e terra, irrigans universam superficiem terrae.
7 Yahweh God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living being.
Formavit igitur Dominus Deus hominem de limo terrae, et inspiravit in faciem eius spiraculum vitae, et factus est homo in animam viventem.
8 Yahweh God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed.
Plantaverat autem Dominus Deus Paradisum voluptatis a principio: in quo posuit hominem quem formaverat.
9 Out of the ground Yahweh God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. This included the tree of life that was in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Produxitque Dominus Deus de humo omne lignum pulchrum visu, et ad vescendum suave: lignum etiam vitae in medio paradisi, lignumque scientiae boni et mali.
10 A river went out of Eden to water the garden. From there it divided and became four rivers.
Et fluvius egrediebatur de loco voluptatis ad irrigandum paradisum, qui inde dividitur in quattuor capita.
11 The name of the first is Pishon. It is the one which flows throughout the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.
Nomen uni Phison: ipse est qui circuit omnem terram Hevilath, ubi nascitur aurum:
12 The gold of that land is good. There are also bdellium and the onyx stone.
et aurum terrae illius optimum est: ibique invenitur bdellium, et lapis onychinus.
13 The name of the second river is Gihon. This one flows throughout the whole land of Cush.
Et nomen fluvii secundi Gehon: ipse est qui circumit omnem terram Aethiopiae.
14 The name of the third river is Tigris, which flows east of Ashur. The fourth river is the Euphrates.
Nomen vero fluminis tertii, Tigris: ipse vadit contra Assyrios. Fluvius autem quartus, ipse est Euphrates.
15 Yahweh God took the man and put him into the garden of Eden to work it and to maintain it.
Tulit ergo Dominus Deus hominem, et posuit eum in paradisum voluptatis, ut operaretur, et custodiret illum:
16 Yahweh God commanded the man, saying, “From every tree in the garden you may freely eat.
Praecepitque ei dicens: Ex omni ligno paradisi comede:
17 But from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you may not eat, for on the day that you eat from it, you will surely die.”
De ligno autem scientiae boni et mali ne comedas. in quocumque enim die comederis ex eo, morte morieris.
18 Then Yahweh God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone. I will make him a helper suitable for him.”
Dixit quoque Dominus Deus: Non est bonum esse hominem solum: faciamus ei adiutorium simile sibi.
19 Out of the ground Yahweh God formed every animal of the field and every bird of the sky. Then he brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name.
Formatis igitur, Dominus Deus, de humo cunctis animantibus terrae, et universis volatilibus caeli, adduxit ea ad Adam, ut videret quid vocaret ea: omne enim quod vocavit Adam animae viventis, ipsum est nomen eius.
20 The man gave names to all the livestock, to all the birds of the sky, and to every beast of the field. But for the man himself there was found no helper suitable for him.
Appellavitque Adam nominibus suis cuncta animantia, et universa volatilia caeli, et omnes bestias terrae: Adae vero non inveniebatur adiutor similis eius.
21 Yahweh God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, so the man slept. Yahweh God took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh where he took the rib.
Immisit ergo Dominus Deus soporem in Adam: cumque obdormisset, tulit unam de costis eius, et replevit carnem pro ea.
22 With the rib that Yahweh God had taken from the man, he made a woman and brought her to the man.
Et aedificavit Dominus Deus costam, quam tulerat de Adam, in mulierem: et adduxit eam ad Adam.
23 The man said, “This time, this one is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called 'woman,' because she was taken out of man.”
Dixitque Adam: Hoc nunc, os ex ossibus meis, et caro de carne mea: haec vocabitur Virago, quoniam de viro sumpta est.
24 Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, he will be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.
Quamobrem relinquet homo patrem suum, et matrem, et adhaerebit uxori suae: et erunt duo in carne una.
25 They were both naked, the man and his wife, but were not ashamed.
Erat autem uterque nudus, Adam scilicet et uxor eius: et non erubescebant.
