उत्पत्ति 1
1 आदिमा परमेश्वरले आकाशमण्डल र पृथ्वी सृष्टि गर्नुभयो ।
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 पृथ्वी निराकार र शून्य थियो । समुद्रको सतहमाथि अन्धकार थियो । परमेश्वरका आत्मा सारा समुद्रमाथि परिभ्रमण गर्दै हुनुहुन्थ्यो ।
Now the earth was formless and empty, and darkness was on the surface of the watery depths. And God's Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.
3 परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “उज्यालो होस्,” र त्यहाँ उज्यालो भयो ।
And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
4 परमेश्वरले उज्यालोलाई हेर्नुभयो, र त्यो असल थियो । उहाँले उज्यालोलाई अन्धकारबाट छुट्ट्याउनुभयो ।
And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness.
5 परमेश्वरले उज्यालोलाई “दिन”, र अन्धकारलाई “रात” भन्नुभयो । साँझ पर्यो र बिहान भयो - पहिलो दिन ।
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. There was evening and there was morning, one day.
6 परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “पानीको बिचमा एउटा क्षेत्र होस्, र त्यसले पानीलाई दुई भागमा विभाजन गरोस् ।”
And God said, "Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters." And it was so.
7 परमेश्वरले त्यो क्षेत्र बनाएर त्यसमुनि र माथिको पानीलाई विभाजन गर्नुभयो । तब त्यस्तै भयो ।
And God made the expanse, and separated the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse.
8 परमेश्वरले त्यस क्षेत्रलाई “आकाश” भन्नुभयो । साँझ पर्यो र बिहान भयो - दोस्रो दिन ।
And God called the expanse Sky. And God saw that it was good. There was evening and there was morning, a second day.
9 परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “आकाशमुनिको जम्मै पानी एक ठाउँमा जम्मा होस्, र ओभानो जमिन देखा परोस् ।” तब त्यस्तै भयो ।
And God said, "Let the waters under the sky be gathered to one gathering, and let the dry land appear." And it was so. And the waters under the sky gathered to their gatherings, and the dry land appeared.
10 परमेश्वरले ओभानो जमिनलाई “पृथ्वी” भन्नुभयो, र जम्मा भएको पानीलाई “समुद्र” भन्नुभयो । उहाँले हेर्नुभयो, र त्यो असल थियो ।
And God called the dry land Earth, and the gatherings of the waters he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
11 परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “पृथ्वीले आ-आफ्नो प्रजातिअनुसारको वनस्पति, बिउ हुने बोट-बिरुवाहरू र फलभित्रै बिउ हुने फल-फलाउने रुखहरू उमारोस् ।” तब त्यस्तै भयो ।
And God said, "Let the earth produce vegetation, plants yielding seed after its kind, and fruit trees bearing fruit with seed in it after its kind, on the earth." And it was so.
12 पृथ्वीले वनस्पति, आ-आफ्नो प्रजातिअनुसारका बिउ हुने बोट-बिरुवाहरू र आफ्नै फलभित्र बिउ हुने फल-फलाउने रुखहरू उमार्यो । परमेश्वरले हेर्नुभयो, र त्यो असल थियो ।
And the earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed after its kind, and fruit trees bearing fruit with seed in it after its kind, on the earth. And God saw that it was good.
13 साँझ पर्यो र बिहान भयो - तेस्रो दिन ।
There was evening and there was morning, a third day.
14 परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “दिनलाई रातबाट अलग गर्नको निम्ति आकाशमा ज्योतिहरू होऊन् र तिनीहरू ऋतुहरू, दिनहरू र वर्षहरूका निम्ति चिन्हहरू होऊन् ।
And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky for the illumination of the day, to give light on the earth, and to rule the day and the night, and to separate between the day and the night. And let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and for years,
15 पृथ्वीमाथि उज्यालो दिनलाई ती आकाशमा ज्योतिहरू होऊन् ।” तब त्यस्तै भयो ।
and let them serve as lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth." And it was so.
16 परमेश्वरले दुईवटा विशाल ज्योति बनाउनुभयो, ठुलो ज्योतिचाहिँ दिनमाथि प्रभुत्व गर्न, र सानोचाहिँ रातमाथि प्रभुत्व गर्न । उहाँले ताराहरू पनि बनाउनुभयो ।
And God made the two great lights, the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night, and the stars.
17 पृथ्वीमाथि उज्यालो दिन, दिन र रातमाथि प्रभुत्व गर्न, र उज्यालोलाई अन्धकारबाट अलग गर्न
And God set them in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth,
18 परमेश्वरले ती आकाशमा राख्नुभयो । परमेश्वरले हेर्नुभयो, र त्यो असल थियो ।
and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
19 साँझ पर्यो र बिहान भयो - चौथो दिन ।
There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
20 परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “पानी ठुलो सङ्ख्यामा जीवित प्राणीहरूले भरिऊन्, र पृथ्वीमाथि आकाशमा पक्षीहरू उडून् ।”
And God said, "Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let flying creatures fly above the earth in the open expanse of the sky." And it was so.
21 परमेश्वरले विशाल जलचरहरू, र आ-आफ्नो प्रजातिअनुसारको सबै जीवित प्राणी, चलहल गर्ने र पुरै पानीलाई भर्ने प्राणीहरू, र आ-आफ्नो प्रजातिअनुसारको पखेटा भएका सबै पक्षीहरूलाई सृष्टि गर्नुभयो । परमेश्वरले हेर्नुभयो, र त्यो असल थियो ।
And God created the large sea creatures, and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after its kind, and every winged flying creature after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
22 परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई यसो भनेर आशिष् दिनुभयो, “फल्दै-फुल्दै र वृद्धि हुँदै जाओ, र समुद्रमा भरिँदै जाओ । पृथ्वीमा पक्षीहरू वृद्धि होऊन् ।”
And God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the flying creatures multiply on the earth."
23 साँझ पर्यो र बिहान भयो - पाँचौँ दिन ।
There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
24 परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “पृथ्वीले आ-आफ्नो प्रजातिअनुसारको जीवित प्राणीहरू, पाल्तु पशुहरू, घस्रने जन्तुहरू, र पृथ्वीका जङ्गली जनावरहरू उत्पन्न गरोस् ।” तब त्यस्तै भयो ।
And God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after its kind: tame animals, and crawling creatures, and wild animals of the earth after its kind." And it was so.
25 परमेश्वरले पृथ्वीका जङ्गली जनावरहरू, पाल्तु पशुहरू, जमिनमा घस्रने सबै जन्तुहरूलाई तिनीहरूकै आ-आफ्नै प्रजातिअनुसार बनाउनुभयो । उहाँले हेर्नुभयो, र त्यो असल थियो ।
And God made the wild animals of the earth after its kind, and the tame animals after its kind, and everything that crawls on the ground after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
26 परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “मानिसलाई हाम्रो स्वरूपमा, हाम्रो प्रतिरूपमा बनाऔँ । तिनीहरूले समुद्रका माछाहरू, आकाशका पक्षीहरू, पाल्तु पशुहरू, सारा पृथ्वी, र पृथ्वीमा घस्रने सबै जन्तुहरूमाथि अधिकार गरून् ।”
And God said, "Let us make humankind in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the flying creatures of the sky, and over the tame animals, and over all the wild animals of the earth, and over every creature that crawls on the earth." And it was so.
27 परमेश्वरले मानिसलाई आफ्नै स्वरूपमा सृष्टि गर्नुभयो । उहाँले तिनलाई आफ्नै प्रतिरूपमा सृष्टि गर्नुभयो । नर र नारी गरी उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई सृष्टि गर्नुभयो ।
And God created humankind in his own image. In God's image he created him; male and female he created them.
28 परमेश्वरले तिनीहरूलाई आशिष्् दिनुभयो र भन्नुभयो, “फल्दै-फुल्दै र वृद्धि हुँदै जाओ । पृथ्वीमा भरिँदै जाओ, र त्यसलाई आफ्नो वशमा राख । समुद्रका माछाहरू, आकाशका पक्षीहरू, र पृथ्वीमा चलहल गर्ने सबै जीवित प्राणीहरूमाथि अधिकार गर ।”
And God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the flying creatures of the sky, and over all the tame animals, and over all the wild animals of the earth, and over all the creatures that crawl on the earth."
29 परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “हेर, मैले पृथ्वीका बिउ हुने हरेक बोट-बिरुवाहरू, र फलभित्रै बिउ हुने हरेक फल-फलाउने रुखहरू तिमीहरूलाई दिएको छु । ती तिमीहरूका निम्ति आहारा हुनेछन् ।
And God said, "Look, I have given you every plant yielding seed, which is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree, which bears fruit yielding seed. It will be your food.
30 पृथ्वीका हरेक जङ्गली जनवारहरू, आकाशका हरेक पक्षीहरू, र सबै घस्रने जन्तुहरू, र जीवन भएका हरेक प्राणीलाई मैले आहाराको निम्ति सबै हरिया बोट-बिरुवाहरू दिएको छु ।” तब त्यस्तै भयो ।
And to every wild animal of the earth, and to every tame animal of the earth, and to every flying creature of the sky, and to every creature that crawls on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green plant for food."
31 परमेश्वरले आफूले बनाउनुभएका सबै कुरा हेर्नुभयो । त्यो ज्यादै असल थियो । साँझ पर्यो र बिहान भयो - छैटौँ दिन ।
And God saw everything that he had made, and look, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
