< Kĩambĩrĩria 2 >
1 Igũrũ na thĩ ikĩrĩka na ũgemu wacio wothe.
The heavens, the earth, and all their vast array were finished.
2 Naguo mũthenya wa mũgwanja wakinya, Ngai agĩkorwo arĩkĩtie wĩra ũcio aarutaga; nĩ ũndũ ũcio Ngai akĩhurũka mũthenya ũcio wa mũgwanja kuuma wĩra-inĩ wake wothe.
On the seventh 'yom ·period of time, day· God finished his work which he had done; and he shavat ·rested· on the seventh day from all his work which he had done.
3 Nake Ngai akĩrathima mũthenya ũcio wa mũgwanja na akĩwamũra, tondũ nĩ mũthenya ũrĩa we aahurũkire kuuma wĩra-inĩ wothe ũrĩa aarutĩte wa ũũmbi.
God blessed the seventh day, and made it set apart holy, because he rested in it from all his work of barah' ·creation from nothingness· which he had done.
4 Ũcio nĩguo ũhoro ũrĩa wĩgiĩ igũrũ na thĩ rĩrĩa ciombirwo. Rĩrĩa Jehova Ngai ombire thĩ na igũrũ-rĩ,
This is the history of the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created. On the day that Adonai God made earth and heaven,
5 gũtiarĩ kahinga o na kamwe ga gĩthaka koonekete thĩ kana mũmera wa gĩthaka ũkamera. Nĩ tondũ Jehova Ngai ndoirĩtie mbura thĩ na gũtiarĩ mũndũ wa kũrĩma mũgũnda,
no plant of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up; for Adonai God had not caused it to rain on the earth. There was no human to till the ground,
6 no tũrũũĩ twoimaga na thĩ na tũkaihũgia thĩ igũrũ guothe.
but a mist went up from the earth, and watered the whole surface of the ground.
7 Nake Jehova Ngai akĩũmba mũndũ kuuma rũkũngũ-inĩ rwa thĩ, na akĩmũhuhĩra mĩhũmũ ya muoyo maniũrũ-inĩ make, nake mũndũ ũcio akĩgĩa na muoyo.
Adonai God formed and framed a human from the dust of ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breaths of lives; and man became a living soul.
8 Ningĩ Jehova Ngai nĩathondekete mũgũnda mwena wa irathĩro, o kũu Edeni; na kũu nĩkuo aigire mũndũ ũcio oombĩte.
Adonai God planted a garden eastward, in Eden [Delight], and there he put the man whom he had formed.
9 Nake Jehova Ngai agĩtũma thĩ ĩmere mĩtĩ ya mĩthemba yothe na ĩkũre. Yarĩ mĩtĩ mĩega ĩkĩoneka na maitho na yaciaraga matunda mega ma kũrĩa. Gatagatĩ ka mũgũnda ũcio nĩ haarĩ na mũtĩ wa muoyo, na mũtĩ wa ũmenyo wa gũkũũrana wega na ũũru.
Out of the ground Adonai God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, including the 'etz chai ·tree of life· in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10 Na nĩ kwarĩ rũũĩ rwathereraga ruumĩte Edeni rũkaihũgia mũgũnda ũcio; ruoima Edeni rũkagayũkana rũgatuĩka njũũĩ inya.
A river went out of Eden [Delight] to water the garden; and from there it was parted, and became the source of four rivers.
11 Rũũĩ rwa mbere rwĩtagwo Pishoni; na nĩruo rũthiũrũrũkaga bũrũri wothe wa Havila, kũrĩa kũrĩ thahabu.
The name of the first is Pishon: it flows through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
12 (Thahabu ya bũrũri ũcio nĩ njega; ningĩ kũu no kũrĩ maguta manungi wega metagwo bendora, na tũhiga twa goro twĩtagwo onigithi.)
and the gold of that land is good. Bdellium and onyx stone are also there.
13 Rũũĩ rwa keerĩ rwĩtagwo Gihoni; naruo rũthiũrũrũkaga bũrũri wothe wa Kushi.
The name of the second river is Gihon. It is the same river that flows through the whole land of Cush.
14 Rũũĩ rwa gatatũ rwĩtagwo Hidekela naruo rũgeragĩra mwena wa irathĩro wa bũrũri wa Ashuri. Naruo rũũĩ rwa kana rwĩtagwo Farati.
The name of the third river is Hiddekel. This is the one which flows in front of Assyria [Level plain]. The fourth river is the Euphrates [Fruitful].
15 Jehova Ngai akĩoya mũndũ ũcio oombĩte, akĩmũiga mũgũnda-inĩ ũcio wa Edeni aũrĩmage na aũmenyagĩrĩre.
Adonai God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden [Delight] to cultivate and keep it.
16 Nake Jehova Ngai agĩatha mũndũ ũcio, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “No ũrĩe maciaro ma mũtĩ o wothe ũrĩ mũgũnda ũyũ;
Adonai God enjoined the man, saying, “You may freely eat of every tree of the garden;
17 no rĩrĩ, ndũkanarĩe maciaro ma mũtĩ ũrĩa wa ũmenyo wa gũkũũrana wega na ũũru, nĩgũkorwo rĩrĩa ũkaamarĩa, ti-itherũ no gũkua ũgaakua.”
but you shall not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely have death.”
18 Ningĩ Jehova Ngai akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ti wega mũndũ ũyũ aikare arĩ wiki. Nĩngũmũmbĩra mũteithia ũrĩa ũmwagĩrĩire.”
Adonai God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a help-mate suitable for him.”
19 Na rĩrĩ, Jehova Ngai nĩ oombĩte nyamũ ciothe cia gĩthaka na nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ kuuma tĩĩri-inĩ. Agĩcirehe kũrĩ mũndũ ũcio one marĩĩtwa marĩa egũcitua; na ũrĩa mũndũ ũcio aatuire kĩũmbe o gĩothe kĩ muoyo, rĩu rĩgĩtuĩka rĩĩtwa rĩakĩo.
Out of the ground Adonai God formed every animal of the field, and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the man called every living creature became its name.
20 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũndũ ũcio akĩhe mahiũ mothe marĩĩtwa, o na nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ na nyamũ ciothe cia gĩthaka. No Adamu ndooneirwo mũteithia ũmwagĩrĩire.
The man gave names to all livestock, and to the birds of the sky, and to every animal of the field; but for man there was not found a helper suitable for him.
21 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova Ngai agĩtũma mũndũ ũcio akome toro mũnene mũno; na rĩrĩa aakomete, Jehova Ngai akĩruta rũbaru rũmwe rwa mũndũ ũcio na agĩcookia nyama hau rwarĩ.
Adonai God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep. As the man slept, he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.
22 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehova Ngai akĩũmba mũndũ-wa-nja kuuma rũbaru rũrĩa aarutĩte kũrĩ mũndũ ũcio na akĩrehe mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio kũrĩ we.
Adonai God refined and fashioned an 'ishah ·wife woman· from the rib which had taken from the man, and brought her to the man.
23 Mũndũ ũcio akiuga atĩrĩ, “Hĩ! Rĩu-rĩ, rĩĩrĩ nĩ ihĩndĩ kuuma mahĩndĩ makwa, na nyama cia mwĩrĩ wakwa. Arĩĩtagwo mũndũ-wa-nja, tondũ aarutirwo kuuma kũrĩ mũndũ mũrũme.”
The man said, “This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called ‘'ishah ·wife woman·,’ because she was taken out of 'ish ·husband man·.”
24 Gĩkĩ nĩkĩo gĩtũmaga mũndũ mũrũme atige ithe na nyina, na anyiitane na mũtumia wake, nao magatuĩka mwĩrĩ ũmwe.
Therefore a husband man will leave his father and his mother, and will dabak ·cling to, worship· with his wife woman, and they will be echad ·one· flesh.
25 Acio eerĩ, mũndũ ũcio na mũtumia wake, maarĩ njaga, na matiaconokaga.
The husband man and his wife woman were both naked, and they were not ashamed.
