Jenèz 2
1 Se te konsa syèl yo avèk tè a te fin fèt, avèk tout lame yo.
And the heaven and the earth and all things in them were complete.
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 came to the end of all his work; and on the seventh day he took his rest from all the work which he had done.
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 gave his blessing to the seventh day and made it holy: because on that day he took his rest from all the work which he had made and done.
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 heaven and the earth when they were made.
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.
In the day when the Lord God made earth and heaven there were no plants of the field on the earth, and no grass had come up: for the Lord God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no man to do work on the land.
6 Men yon vapè te konn leve sòti nan tè a pou wouze tout sifas li.
But a mist went up from the earth, watering all the face of the land.
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 the Lord God made man from the dust of the earth, breathing into him 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 the Lord God made a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had made.
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 earth the Lord made every tree to come, delighting the eye and good for food; and in the middle of the garden, the tree of life 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 giving water to the garden; and from there it was parted and became four streams.
11 Premye rivyè a rele Pischon; li pase antoure tout peyi Havila, kote ki gen lò a.
The name of the first is Pishon, which goes round about all the 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: this river goes round all the 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 Tigris, which goes to the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is 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 the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to do work in it and take care of it.
16 Senyè Bondye a te kòmande lòm nan. Li te di l: “Nan nenpòt sa nan jaden an, ou kapab manje,
And the Lord God gave the man orders, saying, You may freely take of the fruit of every tree of the garden:
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 fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you may not take; for on the day when you take of it, death will certainly come to you.
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 the Lord God said, It is not good for the man to be by himself: I will make one like himself as a help to 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 from the earth the Lord God made every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and took them to the man to see what names he would give them: and whatever name he gave to any living thing, that was its name.
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 air and to every beast of the field; but Adam had no one like himself as a help.
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 the Lord God sent a deep sleep on the man, and took one of the bones from his side while he was sleeping, joining up the flesh again in its place:
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 bone which the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman, and took 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 bone and flesh of my flesh: let her name be 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.”
For this cause will a man go away from his father and his mother and be joined to his wife; and they will be one flesh.
25 Epi lòm nan avèk fanm nan te toutouni, e yo pa t wont.
And the man and his wife were without clothing, and they had no sense of shame.
