ମୋଶାଙ୍କ ଲିଖିତ ପ୍ରଥମ ପୁସ୍ତକ 1
1 ଆଦ୍ୟରେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ସ୍ୱର୍ଗସମୂହ ଓ ପୃଥିବୀକୁ ସୃଷ୍ଟି କଲେ।
In the beginning God made the heaven and the earth.
2 ପୃଥିବୀ ନିର୍ଜନ ଓ ଶୂନ୍ୟ ଥିଲା, ଆଉ ଗଭୀର ଜଳ ଉପରେ ଅନ୍ଧକାର ଥିଲା; ପୁଣି, ପରମେଶ୍ୱରଙ୍କ ଆତ୍ମା ଜଳ ଉପରେ ବ୍ୟାପ୍ତ ଥିଲେ।
But the earth was unsightly and unfurnished, and darkness was over the deep, and the Spirit of God moved over the water.
3 ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର କହିଲେ, “ଦୀପ୍ତି ହେଉ,” ତହିଁରେ ଦୀପ୍ତି ହେଲା।
And God said, Let there be light, and there was light.
4 ଆଉ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଦୀପ୍ତିକୁ ଦେଖିଲେ ଯେ ତାହା ଉତ୍ତମ; ତହୁଁ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଅନ୍ଧକାରରୁ ଦୀପ୍ତିକୁ ଭିନ୍ନ କଲେ।
And God saw the light that it was good, and God divided between the light and the darkness.
5 ପୁଣି, ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଦୀପ୍ତିର ନାମ “ଦିବସ,” ଓ ଅନ୍ଧକାରର ନାମ “ରାତ୍ରି” ଦେଲେ। ତହୁଁ ସନ୍ଧ୍ୟା ଓ ପ୍ରାତଃକାଳ ହୋଇ ପ୍ରଥମ ଦିବସ ହେଲା।
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night, and there was evening and there was morning, the first day.
6 ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର କହିଲେ, “ଜଳ ମଧ୍ୟରେ ଶୂନ୍ୟ ଜାତ ହୋଇ ଜଳକୁ ଦୁଇ ଭାଗରେ ଭିନ୍ନ କରୁ।”
And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the water, and let it be a division between water and water, and it was so.
7 ଏହିରୂପେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଶୂନ୍ୟ ନିର୍ମାଣ କରି ଶୂନ୍ୟର ଊର୍ଦ୍ଧ୍ୱସ୍ଥ ଜଳରୁ ଶୂନ୍ୟର ଅଧଃସ୍ଥ ଜଳକୁ ଭିନ୍ନ କଲେ; ତହିଁରେ ସେହିରୂପ ହେଲା।
And God made the firmament, and God divided between the water which was under the firmament and the water which was above the firmament.
8 ଆଉ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ସେହି ଶୂନ୍ୟର ନାମ “ଆକାଶମଣ୍ଡଳ” ଦେଲେ। ପୁଣି, ସନ୍ଧ୍ୟା ଓ ପ୍ରାତଃକାଳ ହୋଇ ଦ୍ୱିତୀୟ ଦିବସ ହେଲା।
And God called the firmament Heaven, and God saw that it was good, and there was evening and there was morning, the second day.
9 ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର କହିଲେ, “ଆକାଶମଣ୍ଡଳର ଅଧଃସ୍ଥ ସମଗ୍ର ଜଳ ଏକ ସ୍ଥାନରେ ସଂଗୃହୀତ ହେଉ ଓ ସ୍ଥଳ ପ୍ରକାଶ ହେଉ,” ତହିଁରେ ସେହିରୂପ ହେଲା।
And God said, Let the water which is under the heaven be collected into one place, and let the dry land appear, and it was so. And the water which was under the heaven was collected into its places, and the dry land appeared.
10 ପୁଣି, ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ସ୍ଥଳର ନାମ “ପୃଥିବୀ,” ଓ ଜଳରାଶିର ନାମ “ସମୁଦ୍ର” ଦେଲେ; ଆଉ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ତାହା ଉତ୍ତମ ଦେଖିଲେ।
And God called the dry land Earth, and the gatherings of the waters he called Seas, and God saw that it was good.
11 ଏଉତ୍ତାରୁ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର କହିଲେ, “ପୃଥିବୀ ତୃଣ ଓ ସବୀଜ ଶାକ ଓ ବୀଜ ସମ୍ବଳିତ ସ୍ୱ ସ୍ୱ ଜାତି ଅନୁଯାୟୀ ଫଳୋତ୍ପାଦକ ଫଳବୃକ୍ଷ ଭୂମି ଉପରେ ଉତ୍ପନ୍ନ କରୁ,” ତହିଁରେ ସେପରି ହେଲା।
And God said, Let the earth bring forth the herb of grass bearing seed according to its kind and according to its likeness, and the fruit tree bearing fruit whose seed is in it, according to its kind on the earth, and it was so.
12 ଅର୍ଥାତ୍, ପୃଥିବୀ ତୃଣ ଓ ସ୍ୱ ସ୍ୱ ଜାତି ଅନୁସାରେ ବୀଜଉତ୍ପାଦକ ଶାକ ଓ ସ୍ୱ ସ୍ୱ ଜାତି ଅନୁସାରେ ସବୀଜ ଫଳୋତ୍ପାଦକ ବୃକ୍ଷ ଉତ୍ପନ୍ନ କଲା; ପୁଣି, ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ତାହା ଉତ୍ତମ ଦେଖିଲେ।
And the earth brought forth the herb of grass bearing seed according to its kind and according to its likeness, and the fruit tree bearing fruit whose seed is in it, according to its kind on the earth, and God saw that it was good.
13 ତହିଁରେ ସନ୍ଧ୍ୟା ଓ ପ୍ରାତଃକାଳ ହୋଇ ତୃତୀୟ ଦିବସ ହେଲା।
And there was evening and there was morning, the third day.
14 ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର କହିଲେ, “ରାତ୍ରିରୁ ଦିବସକୁ ପୃଥକ କରିବା ପାଇଁ ଆକାଶମଣ୍ଡଳରେ ଜ୍ୟୋତିର୍ଗଣ ଉତ୍ପନ୍ନ ହେଉନ୍ତୁ; ପୁଣି, ସେ ସବୁ ଚିହ୍ନ ଓ ଋତୁ ଓ ଦିବସ ଆଉ ବର୍ଷର କାରଣ ହେଉନ୍ତୁ।
And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth, to divide between day and night, and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and for years.
15 ଆଉ ପୃଥିବୀରେ ଆଲୁଅ ଦେବା ପାଇଁ ଆକାଶମଣ୍ଡଳରେ ସେହି ଜ୍ୟୋତିର୍ଗଣ ଥାଉନ୍ତୁ,” ତହିଁରେ ସେପରି ହେଲା।
And let them be for light in the firmament of the heaven, so as to shine upon the earth, and it was so.
16 ଏହି ପ୍ରକାରେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଦିବସରେ କର୍ତ୍ତୃତ୍ଵ କରିବାକୁ ଏକ ମହାଜ୍ୟୋତି ଓ ରାତ୍ରିରେ କର୍ତ୍ତୃତ୍ଵ କରିବାକୁ ତାହାଠାରୁ ସାନ ଏକ ଜ୍ୟୋତିଃ, ଏହି ଦୁଇ ମହାଜ୍ୟୋତି, ଆଉ ମଧ୍ୟ ତାରାଗଣ ନିର୍ମାଣ କଲେ।
And God made the two great lights, the greater light for regulating the day and the lesser light for regulating the night, the stars also.
17 ତହୁଁ ପୃଥିବୀରେ ଦୀପ୍ତି ଦେବା ପାଇଁ ଓ ଦିବା ଓ ରାତ୍ରି ଉପରେ କର୍ତ୍ତୃତ୍ୱ କରିବା ପାଇଁ,
And God placed them in the firmament of the heaven, so as to shine upon the earth,
18 ଆଉ ଦୀପ୍ତିକୁ ଅନ୍ଧକାରରୁ ପୃଥକ କରିବା ପାଇଁ, ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଆକାଶମଣ୍ଡଳରେ ସେହି ଜ୍ୟୋତିର୍ଗଣ ସ୍ଥାପନ କଲେ; ଆଉ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଏହି ସମସ୍ତ ଉତ୍ତମ ଦେଖିଲେ।
and to regulate day and night, and to divide between the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
19 ତହିଁରେ ସନ୍ଧ୍ୟା ଓ ପ୍ରାତଃକାଳ ହୋଇ ଚତୁର୍ଥ ଦିବସ ହେଲା।
And there was evening and there was morning, the fourth day.
20 ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର କହିଲେ, “ଜଳ ବହୁଳ ରୂପେ ଜଙ୍ଗମ ପ୍ରାଣୀବର୍ଗରେ ପ୍ରାଣୀମୟ ହେଉ ଓ ପୃଥିବୀର ଉପରିସ୍ଥ ଆକାଶମଣ୍ଡଳରେ ପକ୍ଷୀଗଣ ଉଡ଼ନ୍ତୁ।”
And God said, Let the waters bring forth reptiles having life, and winged creatures flying above the earth in the firmament of heaven, and it was so.
21 ଆଉ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ବୃହତ ତିମିଙ୍ଗିଳ ପ୍ରଭୃତି ଓ ସ୍ୱ ସ୍ୱ ଜାତି ଅନୁସାରେ ବହୁଳ ରୂପେ ଜଳଜ ଜଙ୍ଗମ ପ୍ରାଣୀବର୍ଗ ଓ ସ୍ୱ ସ୍ୱ ଜାତି ଅନୁସାରେ ପକ୍ଷୀଗଣର ସୃଷ୍ଟି କଲେ। ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଏହି ସମସ୍ତ ଉତ୍ତମ ଦେଖିଲେ।
And God made great whales, and every living reptile, which the waters brought forth according to their kinds, and every creature that flies with wings according to its kind, and God saw that they were good.
22 ପୁଣି, ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ ଆଶୀର୍ବାଦ କରି କହିଲେ, “ପ୍ରଜାବନ୍ତ ଓ ବହୁବଂଶ ହୋଇ ସମୁଦ୍ରର ଜଳ ପରିପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ କର, ଆଉ ପୃଥିବୀରେ ପକ୍ଷୀଗଣ ବହୁସଂଖ୍ୟକ ହେଉନ୍ତୁ।”
And God blessed them saying, Increase and multiply and fill the waters in the seas, and let the creatures that fly be multiplied on the earth.
23 ତହିଁରେ ସନ୍ଧ୍ୟା ଓ ପ୍ରାତଃକାଳ ହୋଇ ପଞ୍ଚମ ଦିବସ ହେଲା।
And there was evening and there was morning, the fifth day.
24 ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର କହିଲେ, “ପୃଥିବୀରେ ସ୍ୱ ସ୍ୱ ଜାତି ଅନୁସାରେ ପ୍ରାଣୀବର୍ଗ, (ଅର୍ଥାତ୍), ଗ୍ରାମ୍ୟ ପଶୁ ଓ ଉରୋଗାମୀ ଜନ୍ତୁ ଓ ସ୍ୱ ସ୍ୱ ଜାତି ଅନୁସାରେ ପୃଥିବୀର ବନ୍ୟ ପଶୁଗଣ ଉତ୍ପନ୍ନ ହେଉନ୍ତୁ,” ତହିଁରେ ସେପରି ହେଲା।
And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind, quadrupeds and reptiles and wild beasts of the earth according to their kind, and it was so.
25 ଏହିରୂପେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ସ୍ୱ ସ୍ୱ ଜାତି ଅନୁଯାୟୀ ବନ୍ୟ ପଶୁଗଣ ଓ ସ୍ୱ ସ୍ୱ ଜାତି ଅନୁଯାୟୀ ଗ୍ରାମ୍ୟପଶୁଗଣ ଓ ସ୍ୱ ସ୍ୱ ଜାତି ଅନୁଯାୟୀ ପ୍ରତ୍ୟେକ ଭୂଚର ଉରୋଗାମୀ ଜନ୍ତୁ ନିର୍ମାଣ କଲେ; ଆଉ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ସେସମସ୍ତ ଉତ୍ତମ ଦେଖିଲେ।
And God made the wild beasts of the earth according to their kind, and cattle according to their kind, and all the reptiles of the earth according to their kind, and God saw that they were good.
26 ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର କହିଲେ, “ଆମ୍ଭେମାନେ ଆପଣା ପ୍ରତିମୂର୍ତ୍ତିରେ ଓ ଆପଣା ସାଦୃଶ୍ୟରେ ମନୁଷ୍ୟକୁ ନିର୍ମାଣ କରୁ। ସେମାନେ ଜଳଚର ମତ୍ସ୍ୟଗଣ ଓ ଖେଚର ପକ୍ଷୀଗଣ ଓ ପଶୁଗଣ ଓ ସମସ୍ତ ପୃଥିବୀ ଓ ଭୂମିରେ ଗମନଶୀଳ ସବୁ ଉରୋଗାମୀ ଜନ୍ତୁ ଉପରେ କର୍ତ୍ତୃତ୍ୱ କରିବେ।”
And God said, Let us make man according to our image and likeness, and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the flying creatures of heaven, and over the cattle and all the earth, and over all the reptiles that creep on the earth.
27 ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଆପଣା ପ୍ରତିମୂର୍ତ୍ତିରେ ମନୁଷ୍ୟକୁ ସୃଷ୍ଟି କଲେ; ପରମେଶ୍ୱରଙ୍କ ପ୍ରତିମୂର୍ତ୍ତିରେ ସେ ତାହାକୁ ସୃଷ୍ଟି କଲେ; ପୁରୁଷ ଓ ସ୍ତ୍ରୀ କରି ସେ ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ ସୃଷ୍ଟି କଲେ।
And God made man, according to the image of God he made him, male and female he made them.
28 ଆଉ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ ଆଶୀର୍ବାଦ କଲେ; ପୁଣି, ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ସେମାନଙ୍କୁ କହିଲେ, “ପ୍ରଜାବନ୍ତ ଓ ବହୁବଂଶ ହୁଅ, ପୁଣି, ପୃଥିବୀକୁ ପରିପୂର୍ଣ୍ଣ କରି ବଶୀଭୂତ କର, ଆଉ ଜଳଚର ମତ୍ସ୍ୟଗଣ ଓ ଖେଚର ପକ୍ଷୀଗଣ ଓ ଭୂଚର ଉରୋଗାମୀ ଜନ୍ତୁଗଣ ଉପରେ କର୍ତ୍ତୃତ୍ଵ କର।”
And God blessed them, saying, Increase and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the seas and flying creatures of heaven, and all the cattle and all the earth, and all the reptiles that creep on the earth.
29 ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଆହୁରି କହିଲେ, “ଦେଖ, ଆମ୍ଭେ ଭୂମିସ୍ଥ ସବୁ ସବୀଜ ଶାକ ଓ ସବୁ ସବୀଜ ଫଳଦାୟକ ବୃକ୍ଷ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ ଦେଲୁ, ତାହା ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କର ଖାଦ୍ୟ ହେବ।
And God said, Behold I have given to you every seed-bearing herb sowing seed which is upon all the earth, and every tree which has in itself the fruit of seed that is sown, to you it shall be for food.
30 ପୁଣି, ପୃଥିବୀସ୍ଥ ସମସ୍ତ ପଶୁ ଓ ଖେଚର ପକ୍ଷୀ ଓ ଭୂଚର ଉରୋଗାମୀ ଜନ୍ତୁ, ଏହି ସମସ୍ତ ପ୍ରାଣୀଙ୍କ ଭକ୍ଷ୍ୟ ନିମନ୍ତେ ଆମ୍ଭେ ସବୁ ହରିତ୍ ଶାକ ଦେଲୁ,” ତହିଁରେ ସେହିପରି ହେଲା।
And to all the wild beasts of the earth, and to all the flying creatures of heaven, and to every reptile creeping on the earth, which has in itself the breath of life, even every green plant for food; and it was so.
31 ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଆପଣା ନିର୍ମିତ ପ୍ରତ୍ୟେକ ବସ୍ତୁ ପ୍ରତି ଦୃଷ୍ଟି କଲେ, ଆଉ ଦେଖ, ସମସ୍ତ ଅତ୍ୟୁତ୍ତମ ହେଲା। ତହିଁରେ ସନ୍ଧ୍ୟା ଓ ପ୍ରାତଃକାଳ ହୋଇ ଷଷ୍ଠ ଦିବସ ହେଲା।
And God saw all the things that he had made, and, behold, they were very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
