Genesis 2
1 Igitur perfecti sunt caeli et terra, et omnis ornatus eorum.
And the heavens and the earth and all their host were finished.
2 Complevitque Deus die septimo opus suum quod fecerat: et requievit die septimo ab universo opere quod patrarat.
And God had finished on the seventh day his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
3 Et benedixit diei septimo; et sanctificavit illum: quia in ipso cessaverat ab omni opere suo quod creavit Deus ut faceret.
And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it, because that on it he rested from all his work which God had created in making it.
4 Istae sunt generationes caeli et terrae, quando creata sunt, in die quo fecit Dominus Deus caelum et terram:
These are the histories of the heavens and the earth, when they were created, in the day that Jehovah Elohim made earth and heavens,
5 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:
and every shrub of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew; for Jehovah Elohim had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to till the ground.
6 Sed fons ascendebat e terra, irrigans universam superficiem terrae.
But a mist went up from the earth, and moistened the whole surface of the ground.
7 Formavit igitur Dominus Deus hominem de limo terrae, et inspiravit in faciem eius spiraculum vitae, et factus est homo in animam viventem.
And Jehovah Elohim formed Man, dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and Man became a living soul.
8 Plantaverat autem Dominus Deus Paradisum voluptatis a principio: in quo posuit hominem quem formaverat.
And Jehovah Elohim planted a garden in Eden eastward, and there put Man whom he had formed.
9 Produxitque Dominus Deus de humo omne lignum pulchrum visu, et ad vescendum suave: lignum etiam vitae in medio paradisi, lignumque scientiae boni et mali.
And out of the ground Jehovah Elohim made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; and the tree of life, in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10 Et fluvius egrediebatur de loco voluptatis ad irrigandum paradisum, qui inde dividitur in quattuor capita.
And a river went out of Eden, to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became four main streams.
11 Nomen uni Phison: ipse est qui circuit omnem terram Hevilath, ubi nascitur aurum:
The name of the one is Pison: that is it which surrounds the whole land of Havilah, where the gold is.
12 et aurum terrae illius optimum est: ibique invenitur bdellium, et lapis onychinus.
And the gold of that land is good; bdellium and the onyx stone are there.
13 Et nomen fluvii secundi Gehon: ipse est qui circumit omnem terram Aethiopiae.
And the name of the second river is Gihon: that is it which surrounds the whole land of Cush.
14 Nomen vero fluminis tertii, Tigris: ipse vadit contra Assyrios. Fluvius autem quartus, ipse est Euphrates.
And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which flows forward toward Asshur. And the fourth river, that is Euphrates.
15 Tulit ergo Dominus Deus hominem, et posuit eum in paradisum voluptatis, ut operaretur, et custodiret illum:
And Jehovah Elohim took Man, and put him into the garden of Eden, to till it and to guard it.
16 Praecepitque ei dicens: Ex omni ligno paradisi comede:
And Jehovah Elohim commanded Man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou shalt freely eat;
17 De ligno autem scientiae boni et mali ne comedas. in quocumque enim die comederis ex eo, morte morieris.
but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it; for in the day that thou eatest of it thou shalt certainly die.
18 Dixit quoque Dominus Deus: Non est bonum esse hominem solum: faciamus ei adiutorium simile sibi.
And Jehovah Elohim said, It is not good that Man should be alone; I will make him a helpmate, his like.
19 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.
And out of the ground Jehovah Elohim had formed every animal of the field and all fowl of the heavens, and brought [them] to Man, to see what he would call them; and whatever Man called each living soul, that was its name.
20 Appellavitque Adam nominibus suis cuncta animantia, et universa volatilia caeli, et omnes bestias terrae: Adae vero non inveniebatur adiutor similis eius.
And Man gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the heavens, and to every beast of the field; but as for Adam, he found no helpmate, his like.
21 Immisit ergo Dominus Deus soporem in Adam: cumque obdormisset, tulit unam de costis eius, et replevit carnem pro ea.
And Jehovah Elohim caused a deep sleep to fall upon Man; and he slept. And he took one of his ribs and closed up flesh in its stead.
22 Et aedificavit Dominus Deus costam, quam tulerat de Adam, in mulierem: et adduxit eam ad Adam.
And Jehovah Elohim built the rib that he had taken from Man into a woman; and brought her to Man.
23 Dixitque Adam: Hoc nunc, os ex ossibus meis, et caro de carne mea: haec vocabitur Virago, quoniam de viro sumpta est.
And Man said, This time it is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh: this shall be called Woman, because this was taken out of a man.
24 Quamobrem relinquet homo patrem suum, et matrem, et adhaerebit uxori suae: et erunt duo in carne una.
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and cleave to his wife; and they shall become one flesh.
25 Erat autem uterque nudus, Adam scilicet et uxor eius: et non erubescebant.
And they were both naked, Man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
