< Uumama 2 >
1 Uumamni samiitii fi lafaa, kan waan isaan keessa jiru hundaas haala kanaan xumurame.
THUS the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
2 Waaqni hojii hojjechaa ture hunda guyyaa torbaffaatti fixe; kanaafuu inni guyyaa torbaffaatti hojii isaa hundumaa irraa boqote.
And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
3 Waaqni sababii gaafa sana hojii waa uumuu kan hojjechaa ture hunda irraa boqoteef guyyaa torbaffaa eebbisee qulqulleesse.
And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
4 Seenaan samiiwwaniitii fi lafaa kan yeroo isaan uumamanii, yeroo Waaqayyo Waaqni lafaa fi samiiwwan uumee kanaa dha.
These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens,
5 Sababii Waaqayyo Waaqni bokkaa hin roobsiniif, namni lafa qotus waan hin jiraatiniif margi tokko iyyuu lafa irratti hin mulʼanne; biqiltuunis lafa qotiisaa irratti hin biqille ture.
And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.
6 Garuu bishaan lafa keessaa burqee lafa hunda obaasa ture.
But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
7 Waaqayyo Waaqni biyyoo lafaa irraa nama tolche; hafuura jireenyaas funyaan isaatti baafate; namnis uumama jiraataa taʼe.
And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
8 Waaqayyo Waaqnis Eeden keessatti gama baʼa biiftuutti iddoo biqiltuu qopheesse; nama tolche sanas achi keessa kaaʼe.
And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.
9 Waaqayyo Waaqni mukkeen gosa hundaa lafa keessaa biqilche; inni mukkeen ija namaatti tolanii fi nyaataafis gaarii taʼan biqilche. Iddoo biqiltuu sana keessas muka jireenyaatii fi muka waan gaarii fi waan hamaa nama beeksisutu ture.
And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
10 Lagni iddoo biqiltuu sana obaasu tokkos Eeden keessaa burqa ture; lagni sun Eedenii kaʼee gargar baʼee laga afur taʼe.
And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads.
11 Maqaan laga tokkoffaa Phiishoon; innis guutummaa biyya Hawiilaa, iddoo warqeen jirutti naannaʼee yaaʼa.
The name of the first is Pison: that is it which compasseth the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
12 Warqeen biyya sanaa gaarii dha; hapheen urgaaʼuu fi sardooniksiin achitti argamu.
And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
13 Maqaan isa lammaffaa Giihooni; innis guutummaa lafa Itoophiyaatti naannaʼee yaaʼa.
And the name of the second river is Gihon: the same is it that compasseth the whole land of Ethiopia.
14 Maqaan laga sadaffaa Xegroosi; innis karaa baʼa biiftuutiin Asoor cina yaaʼa. Lagni afuraffaan immoo Efraaxiis jedhama.
And the name of the third river is Hiddekel: that is it which goeth toward the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
15 Waaqayyo Waaqni akka inni isa misoomsuu fi akka inni isa eeguuf jedhee nama fuudhee Iddoo Biqiltuu Eeden keessa kaaʼe.
And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.
16 Waaqayyo Waaqnis akkana jedhee nama ajaje; “Muka iddoo biqiltuu kana keessa jiru hunda irraa nyaachuu ni dandeessa;
And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:
17 garuu muka waan gaarii fi waan hamaa nama beeksisu sana irraa hin nyaatin; gaafa isa irraa nyaatte dhugumaan ni duutaatii.”
But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.
18 Waaqayyo Waaqni, “Namni kophaa isaa taʼuun gaarii miti; gargaartuu isatti toltu nan tolchaaf” jedhe.
And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
19 Waaqayyo Waaqnis bineensaa fi simbirroota samii hundumaa lafa irraa tolche. Maqaa inni isaaniif baasu ilaaluuf jedhees gara namichaatti isaan fide; wanni namichi sun tokkoo tokkoo uumamawwan lubbu qabeeyyii ittiin waame kam iyyuu maqaa taʼeef.
And out of the ground the Lord God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.
20 Namichi sunis horii qeʼee hundaaf, simbirroota samii hundaaf, bineensa hundaaf maqaa baase. Addaamiif garuu gargaartuun isatti toltu hin argamne.
And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
21 Kanaafis Waaqayyo Waaqni akka namichi hirribaan of wallaalu godhe; utuma inni rafaa jiruu lafee cinaacha isaa keessaa tokko fuudhee iddoo sana fooniin duuche.
And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
22 Waaqayyo Waaqni lafee cinaachaa kan namicha keessaa fuudhe sana irraa dubartii tolchee gara namichaatti geesse.
And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
23 Namichis akkana jedhe; “Egaa lafeen kun lafee lafee kootii ti; foon kunis foon foon kootii ti; isheen waan dhiira irraa argamteef ‘dubartii’ jedhamti.”
And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man.
24 Kanaafuu namni abbaa fi haadha isaa ni dhiisa; niitii isaatti ni maxxana; isaanis foon tokko taʼu.
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.
25 Namichii fi niitiin isaa qullaa isaanii turan; garuu wal hin qaanaʼan ture.
And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
