Kinohi 1
1 I KINOHI hana ke Akua i ka lani a me ka honua.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 He ano ole ka honua, ua olohelohe; a maluna no o ka hohonu ka pouli. Hoopunana iho la ka Uhane o ke Akua maluna o ka wai.
Now the earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.
3 I iho la ke Akua, I malamalama; a ua malamalama ae la.
And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.
4 Nana ae la ke Akua i ka malamalama, ua maikai: a hookaawale ae la ke Akua mawaena o ka malamalama, a me ka pouli.
And God saw that the light was good, and He separated the light from the darkness.
5 Kapa mai la ke Akua i ka malamalama, he Ao, a kapa mai hoi ia i ka pouli, he Po. A o ke ahiahi a me ke kakahiaka, o ka la mua ia.
God called the light “day,” and the darkness He called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
6 I iho la ke Akua, I aouli mawaena o na wai, i mea hookaawale i kekahi wai me kekahi wai.
And God said, “Let there be an expanse between the waters, to separate the waters from the waters.”
7 Hana iho la ke Akua i ke aouli; a hookaawale ae la ia i ka wai malalo o ke aouli, me ka wai maluna o ke aouli: a pela io no.
So God made the expanse and separated the waters beneath it from the waters above. And it was so.
8 Kapa iho la ke Akua i ke aouli, he Lani. A o ke ahiahi a me ke kakahiaka, o ka lua ia o ka la.
God called the expanse “sky.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the second day.
9 I iho la ke Akua, E hui pu na wai malalo o ka lani i kahi hookahi, i ikea ai kahi maloo: a pela io no.
And God said, “Let the waters under the sky be gathered into one place, so that the dry land may appear.” And it was so.
10 Kapa iho la ke Akua i kahi maloo, he Aina; a kapa iho la oia i na wai i hui pu ia 'i, o na moana: a nana ae la ke Akua, ua maikai.
God called the dry land “earth,” and the gathering of waters He called “seas.” And God saw that it was good.
11 I iho la ke Akua, E hooulu mai ka honua i ka mauu, a me ka launahele e hua ana i ka hua, a me ka laau hua e hua ana hoi ma kona ano iho, iloko ona iho kona hua maluna o ka honua: a pela io no.
Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth vegetation: seed-bearing plants and fruit trees, each bearing fruit with seed according to its kind.” And it was so.
12 A hooulu mai la ka honua i ka mauu, a me ka launahele e hua ana i ka hua ma kona ano iho, a me ka laau e hua ana i ka hua, iloko ona kona hua ma kona ano iho: nana iho la hoi ke Akua, ua maikai.
The earth produced vegetation: seed-bearing plants according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.
13 A o ke ahiahi a me ke kakahiaka, o ke kolu ia o ka la.
And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.
14 I iho la ke Akua, I mau malamalama iloko o ke aouli o ka lani, i mea hookaawale i ke ao a me ka po; i mau hoailona lakou no na kau, a no na la, a me na makahiki:
And God said, “Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to distinguish between the day and the night, and let them be signs to mark the seasons and days and years.
15 I mau kukui hoi lakou iloko o ke aouli o ka lani, e hoomalamalama mai ai i ka honua: a pela io no.
And let them serve as lights in the expanse of the sky to shine upon the earth.” And it was so.
16 Hana iho la ke Akua i na malamalama nui elua: o ka malamalama nui, e alii ai maluna o ke ao, a o ka malamalama uuku iho, e alii ai maluna o ka po, a me na hoku hoi.
God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night. And He made the stars as well.
17 Kau aku la ke Akua ia mau mea ma ke aouli o ka lani, e hoomalamalama mai ai i ka honua,
God set these lights in the expanse of the sky to shine upon the earth,
18 E hooalii hoi maluna o ke ao a me ka po, a e hookaawale ae i ka malamalama a me ka pouli: a nana iho la ke Akua, ua maikai.
to preside over the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
19 A o ke ahiahi a me ke kakahiaka, o ka ha ia o ka la.
And there was evening, and there was morning—the fourth day.
20 I iho la ke Akua, E hoohua nui mai na wai i na mea ola e holo ana, a me na manu e lele ae maluna o ka honua, ma ka lewa akea o ka lani.
And God said, “Let the waters teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of the sky.”
21 Hana iho la ke Akua i na ia nui, a me na mea ola a pau e holo ana, a ka wai i hoohua nui mai ai ma ko lakou ano iho a me na mea eheu hoi a pau ma ko lakou ano iho: a nana iho la ke Akua, ua maikai.
So God created the great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters teemed according to their kinds, and every bird of flight after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
22 Hoomaikai iho la ke Akua ia mau mea, i iho la, E hoohua ae oukou e hoolaha nui hoi, a e hoopiha i na wai o na moana; a e hoolaha ae na manu maluna o ka honua.
Then God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the waters of the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.”
23 O ke kakahiaka a me ke ahiahi, o ka lima ia o ka la.
And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day.
24 I iho la ke Akua, E hoohua mai ka honua i ka mea ola ma kona ano iho, i ka holoholona laka, me ka mea kolo, a me ka holoholona hihiu ma kona ano iho: a pela io no.
And God said, “Let the earth bring forth living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, land crawlers, and beasts of the earth according to their kinds.” And it was so.
25 Hana iho la ke Akua i ka holoholona hihiu ma kona ano iho, me na holoholona laka ma ko lakou ano iho, a me na mea kolo a pau o ka honua ma ko lakou ano iho: a nana iho la ke Akua, ua maikai.
God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and everything that crawls upon the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.
26 I iho la ke Akua, E hana kakou i ke kanaka o ku ia kakou, ma ka like ana me kakou iho: a e hooalii ia ia maluna o na ia o ke kai, maluna hoi o na manu o ka lewa, maluna hoi o na holoholona laka, a maluna hoi o ka honua a pau, a maluna no hoi o na mea kolo a pau e kolo ana ma ka honua.
Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness, to rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, and over all the earth itself and every creature that crawls upon it.”
27 Hana iho la ke Akua i ke kanaka ma kona ano iho, ma ke ano o ke Akua oia i hana'i ia ia; hana mai la ia i kane a i wahine.
So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.
28 Hoomaikai mai la ke Akua ia laua, i mai la hoi ke Akua ia laua, E hoohua ae olua, e hoolaha hoi, e hoopiha i ka honua, a e lanakila maluna, a e noho alii maluna o na ia o ke kai, a me na manu o ka lewa, a me na mea a pau e kolo ana maluna o ka honua.
God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it; rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every creature that crawls upon the earth.”
29 I mai la ke Akua, Aia hoi, na haawi aku au na olua i na launahele a pau e hua ana i ka hua maluna o ka honua a pau, a me na laau a pau iloko ona ka hua o ka laau e hua ana i ka hua; he mea ai ia na olua.
Then God said, “Behold, I have given you every seed-bearing plant on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit contains seed. They will be yours for food.
30 A na ka poe holoholona a pau o ka honua, me na manu a pau o ka lewa, a me na mea a pau e kolo ana ma ka honua, na mea e ola ana, na lakou ka nahelehele a pau i mea ai: a pela io no.
And to every beast of the earth and every bird of the air and every creature that crawls upon the earth—everything that has the breath of life in it—I have given every green plant for food.” And it was so.
31 Nana iho la ke Akua i na mea a pau ana i hana'i, aia hoi, ua maikai wale no. A o ke ahiahi a me ke kakahiaka, o ke ono ia o ka la.
And God looked upon all that He had made, and indeed, it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.
