Jenèz 2
1 Se te konsa syèl yo avèk tè a te fin fèt, avèk tout lame yo.
And the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
2 Nan setyèm jou a, Bondye te fin fè travay ke Li te fè yo. Konsa, Li te repoze nan setyèm jou a sou tout travay ke Li te fè yo.
And on the seventh day God finished his work which he had made, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
3 Epi Bondye te beni setyèm jou a. Li te fè li sen, akoz nan li, Li te repoze de tout travay kreyasyon an, ke Li te fè a.
And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it, because in it he rested from all his work which God had created and made.
4 Sa se listwa syèl yo avèk tè a lè yo te kreye, nan jou ke SENYÈ Bondye a e fè tè a avèk syèl la.
These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that Jehovah God made earth and heaven.
5 Alò potko gen ti bwa chan ki te parèt nan tè a, ni plant chan ki te boujonnen, paske Senyè Bondye a potko voye lapli sou tè a, e pa t gen moun pou kiltive tè a.
And no plant of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up, for Jehovah God had not caused it to rain upon the earth. And there was not a man to till the ground,
6 Men yon vapè te konn leve sòti nan tè a pou wouze tout sifas li.
but there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
7 Alò Senyè Bondye a te fòme lòm sòti nan pousyè tè a. Li te respire souf lavi fè l vin antre nan nen l, e lòm te devni yon nanm vivan.
And Jehovah God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul.
8 Senyè Bondye a te plante yon jaden nan pati lès Eden, e se la Li te mete lòm ke Li te fòme a.
And Jehovah God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed.
9 Soti nan tè a, SENYÈ Bondye a te fè grandi chak ab ki bèl pou gade e ki bon pou manje. Avèk yo nan mitan jaden a te gen ab lavi a, ak ab konesans a sa ki bon ak sa ki mal la.
And out of the ground Jehovah God made to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, also the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10 Alò, yon rivyè te sòti nan Eden pou wouze jaden an. Epi soti la, li te divize ou fè kat rivyè.
And a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it was divided, and became four heads.
11 Premye rivyè a rele Pischon; li pase antoure tout peyi Havila, kote ki gen lò a.
The name of the first is Pishon. That is it which encompasses the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.
12 Lò peyi sa a bon; wòch bdelyèm avèk onyx konn twouve la.
And the gold of that land is good. There is bdellium and the onyx stone.
13 Dezyèm rivyè a rele Guihon; li kouri antoure peyi Cush la.
And the name of the second river is Gihon. The same is it which encompasses the whole land of Cush.
14 Yo rele twazyèm rivyè Tigrès; li koule nan lès Assyrie. Epi katriyèm rivyè a se Euphrate.
And the name of the third river is Hiddekel. That is it which goes in front of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.
15 Alò, Senyè Bondye a te pran lòm nan; Li te mete l nan jaden Eden pou kiltive li e pran swen li.
And Jehovah God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
16 Senyè Bondye a te kòmande lòm nan. Li te di l: “Nan nenpòt sa nan jaden an, ou kapab manje,
And Jehovah God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou may freely eat,
17 men sou ab konesans bon avèk mal la, ou pa pou manje li, paske nan jou ke ou manje li, ou va mouri.”
but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shall not eat of it. For in the day that thou eat of it thou shall surely die.
18 Alò, Senyè Bondye a te di: “Sa pa bon pou lòm nan rete sèl. Mwen va fè yon asistan jan li dwe genyen”.
And Jehovah God said, It is not good that the man should be alone, I will make a help meet for him.
19 Sòti nan tè a, Senyè Bondye a te fòme chak bèt chan ak chak zwazo syèl la, e Li te mennen yo kote lòm po wè kòman li ta rele yo. Nenpòt jan li te rele yon kreyati vivan, sa te vin non li.
And out of the ground Jehovah God formed every beast of the field, and every bird of the heavens, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them, and whatever the man called every living creature, that was the name of it.
20 Lòm nan te bay non a tout bèt domestik yo, a tout zwazo syèl yo, e a chak bèt chan, men pou lòm nan, pa t gen yon asistan sanblab ak li.
And the man gave names to all cattle, and to the birds of the heavens, and to every beast of the field, but for man there was not found a help meet for him.
21 Alò, Senyè Bondye a te fè yon Pwofon somèy pran lòm nan, e li te dòmi. Konsa, li te pran youn nan zo kòt li yo, e te fèmen chè a nan plas li.
And Jehovah God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept. And God took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in place of it.
22 Senyè Bondye a te fòme yon fanm avèk kòt ke Li te pran nan lòm nan, e Li te pote li bay li.
And the rib, which Jehovah God had taken from the man, he made a woman, and brought her to the man.
23 Lòm nan te di: “Koulye a sa se zo a zo mwen, e chè a chè mwen. Li va rele fanm akoz li te retire nan lòm.
And the man said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
24 “Pou rezon sila a, yon nonm va kite papa li avèk manman li, pou vin jwenn avèk madanm li, epi yo va vin tounen yon sèl chè.”
Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cling to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh.
25 Epi lòm nan avèk fanm nan te toutouni, e yo pa t wont.
And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
