1 U poèetku stvori Bog nebo i zemlju.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 A zemlja bješe bez oblièja i pusta, i bješe tama nad bezdanom; i duh Božji dizaše se nad vodom.
And the earth was waste and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep: and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 I reèe Bog: neka bude svjetlost. I bi svjetlost.
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 I vidje Bog svjetlost da je dobra; i rastavi Bog svjetlost od tame.
And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 I svjetlost nazva Bog dan, a tamu nazva noæ. I bi veèe i bi jutro, dan prvi.
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day.
6 Potom reèe Bog: neka bude svod posred vode, da rastavlja vodu od vode.
And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
7 I stvori Bog svod, i rastavi vodu pod svodom od vode nad svodom; i bi tako.
And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
8 A svod nazva Bog nebo. I bi veèe i bi jutro, dan drugi.
And God called the firmament Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.
9 Potom reèe Bog: neka se sabere voda što je pod nebom na jedno mjesto, i neka se pokaže suho. I bi tako.
And God said, Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
10 I suho nazva Bog zemlja, a zborišta vodena nazva mora; i vidje Bog da je dobro.
And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
11 Opet reèe Bog: neka pusti zemlja iz sebe travu, bilje, što nosi sjeme, i drvo rodno, koje raða rod po svojim vrstama, u kojem æe biti sjeme njegovo na zemlji. I bi tako.
And God said, Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed, [and] fruit-trees bearing fruit after their kind, wherein is the seed thereof, upon the earth: and it was so.
12 I pusti zemlja iz sebe travu, bilje, što nosi sjeme po svojim vrstama, i drvo, koje raða rod, u kojem je sjeme njegovo po njegovijem vrstama. I vidje Bog da je dobro.

13 I bi veèe i bi jutro, dan treæi.
And there was evening and there was morning, a third day.
14 Potom reèe Bog: neka budu vidjela na svodu nebeskom, da dijele dan i noæ, da budu znaci vremenima i danima i godinama;
And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years:
15 I neka svijetle na svodu nebeskom, da obasjavaju zemlju. I bi tako.
and let them be for lights in the firmament of heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
16 I stvori Bog dva vidjela velika: vidjelo veæe da upravlja danom, i vidjelo manje da upravlja noæu, i zvijezde.
And God made the two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: [he made] the stars also.
17 I postavi ih Bog na svodu nebeskom da obasjavaju zemlju.
And God set them in the firmament of heaven to give light upon the earth,
18 I da upravljaju danom i noæu, i da dijele svjetlost od tame. I vidje Bog da je dobro.
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 I bi veèe i bi jutro, dan èetvrti.
And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
20 Potom reèe Bog: neka vrve po vodi žive duše, i ptice neka lete iznad zemlje pod svod nebeski.
And God said, Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
21 I stvori Bog kitove velike i sve žive duše što se mièu, što provrvješe po vodi po vrstama svojim, i sve ptice krilate po vrstama njihovijem. I vidje Bog da je dobro;
And God created the great sea-monsters, and every living creature that moveth, wherewith the waters swarmed, after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind: and God saw that it was good.
22 I blagoslovi ih Bog govoreæi: raðajte se i množite se, i napunite vodu po morima, i ptice neka se množe na zemlji.
And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.
23 I bi veèe i bi jutro, dan peti.
And there was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
24 Potom reèe Bog: neka zemlja pusti iz sebe duše žive po vrstama njihovijem, stoku i sitne životinje i zvijeri zemaljske po vrstama njihovijem. I bi tako.
And God said, Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind, cattle, and creeping things, and beasts of the earth after their kind: and it was so.
25 I stvori Bog zvijeri zemaljske po vrstama njihovijem, i stoku po vrstama njezinijem, i sve sitne životinje na zemlji po vrstama njihovijem. I vidje Bog da je dobro.
And God made the beasts of the earth after their kind, and the cattle after their kind, and everything that creepeth upon the ground after its kind: and God saw that it was good.
26 Potom reèe Bog: da naèinimo èovjeka po svojemu oblièju, kao što smo mi, koji æe biti gospodar od riba morskih i od ptica nebeskih i od stoke i od cijele zemlje i od svijeh životinja što se mièu po zemlji.
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27 I stvori Bog èovjeka po oblièju svojemu, po oblièju Božijemu stvori ga; muško i žensko stvori ih.
And God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28 I blagoslovi ih Bog, i reèe im Bog: raðajte se i množite se, i napunite zemlju, i vladajte njom, i budite gospodari od riba morskih i od ptica nebeskih i od svega zvjerinja što se mièe po zemlji.
And God blessed them: and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the heavens, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
29 I još reèe Bog: evo, dao sam vam sve bilje što nosi sjeme po svoj zemlji, i sva drveta rodna koja nose sjeme; to æe vam biti za hranu.
And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for food:
30 A svjemu zvjerinju zemaljskom i svjema pticama nebeskim i svjemu što se mièe na zemlji i u èem ima duša živa, dao sam svu travu da jedu. I bi tako.
and to every beast of the earth, and to every bird of the heavens, and to everything that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, [I have given] every green herb for food: and it was so.
31 Tada pogleda Bog sve što je stvorio, i gle, dobro bješe veoma. I bi veèe i bi jutro, dan šesti.
And God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
