Genesis 1
1 Ní ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ ohun gbogbo Ọlọ́run dá àwọn ọ̀run àti ayé.
In the beginning God created the heauen and the earth.
2 Ayé sì wà ní rúdurùdu, ó sì ṣófo, òkùnkùn sì wà lójú ibú omi, Ẹ̀mí Ọlọ́run sì ń rábàbà lójú omi.
And the earth was without forme and void, and darkenesse was vpon the deepe, and the Spirit of God mooued vpon the waters.
3 Ọlọ́run sì wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí ìmọ́lẹ̀ kí ó wà,” ìmọ́lẹ̀ sì wà.
Then God said, Let there be light: And there was light.
4 Ọlọ́run rí i pé ìmọ́lẹ̀ náà dára, ó sì ya ìmọ́lẹ̀ náà sọ́tọ̀ kúrò lára òkùnkùn.
And God saw the light that it was good, and God separated the light from the darkenes.
5 Ọlọ́run sì pe ìmọ́lẹ̀ náà ní “ọ̀sán,” àti òkùnkùn ní “òru.” Àṣálẹ́ àti òwúrọ̀ sì jẹ́ ọjọ́ kìn-ín-ní.
And God called the Light, Day, and the darkenes, he called Night. So the euening and the morning were the first day.
6 Ọlọ́run sì wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí òfúrufú kí ó wà ní àárín àwọn omi, láti pààlà sí àárín àwọn omi.”
Againe God said, Let there be a firmament in the mids of the waters: and let it separate the waters from the waters.
7 Ọlọ́run sì dá òfúrufú láti ya omi tí ó wà ní òkè òfúrufú kúrò lára omi tí ó wà ní orí ilẹ̀. Ó sì rí bẹ́ẹ̀.
Then God made the firmament, and separated the waters, which were vnder the firmament, from the waters which were aboue the firmament: and it was so.
8 Ọlọ́run sì pe òfúrufú ní “ọ̀run.” Àṣálẹ́ àti òwúrọ̀ sì jẹ́ ọjọ́ kejì.
And God called the firmament Heauen. So the Euening and the morning were the second day.
9 Ọlọ́run sì wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí omi abẹ́ ọ̀run wọ́ papọ̀ sí ojú kan, kí ilẹ̀ gbígbẹ sì farahàn.” Ó sì rí bẹ́ẹ̀.
God said againe, Let the waters vnder the heauen be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appeare. and it was so.
10 Ọlọ́run sì pe ilẹ̀ gbígbẹ náà ní “ilẹ̀,” àti àpapọ̀ omi ní “òkun.” Ọlọ́run sì rí i wí pé ó dára.
And God called the dry land, Earth, and he called the gathering together of the waters, Seas: and God saw that it was good.
11 Ọlọ́run sì wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí ilẹ̀ kí ó hu ọ̀gbìn: ewéko ti yóò máa mú èso wá àti igi tí yóò máa so èso ní irú tirẹ̀, tí ó ní irúgbìn nínú.” Ó sì rí bẹ́ẹ̀.
Then God said, Let the earth bud forth the bud of the herbe, that seedeth seed, the fruitfull tree, which beareth fruite according to his kinde, which hath his seede in it selfe vpon the earth: and it was so.
12 Ilẹ̀ sì hù ọ̀gbìn: ewéko tí ó ń so èso ní irú tirẹ̀, àti igi tí ń so èso, tí ó ní irúgbìn nínú ní irú tirẹ̀. Ọlọ́run sì ri pé ó dára.
And the earth brought foorth the bud of the herbe, that seedeth seede according to his kind, also the tree that beareth fruit, which hath his seed in it selfe according to his kinde: and God saw that it was good.
13 Àṣálẹ́ àti òwúrọ̀ sì jẹ́ ọjọ́ kẹta.
So the euening and the morning were the third day.
14 Ọlọ́run sì wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí ìmọ́lẹ̀ kí ó wà ní ojú ọ̀run, láti pààlà sí àárín ọ̀sán àti òru, kí wọn ó sì máa wà fún àmì láti mọ àwọn àsìkò, àti àwọn ọjọ́ àti àwọn ọdún.
And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heauen, to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signes, and for seasons, and for dayes and yeeres.
15 Kí wọn ó jẹ́ ìmọ́lẹ̀ ní ojú ọ̀run láti tan ìmọ́lẹ̀ sí orí ilẹ̀.” Ó sì rí bẹ́ẹ̀.
And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heauen to giue light vpon the earth: and it was so.
16 Ọlọ́run dá ìmọ́lẹ̀ ńlá ńlá méjì, ìmọ́lẹ̀ tí ó tóbi láti ṣe àkóso ọ̀sán àti ìmọ́lẹ̀ tí ó kéré láti ṣe àkóso òru. Ó sì dá àwọn ìràwọ̀ pẹ̀lú.
God then made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesse light to rule the night: he made also the starres.
17 Ọlọ́run sì ṣe wọ́n lọ́jọ̀ sí ojú ọ̀run láti máa tan ìmọ́lẹ̀ si orí ilẹ̀,
And God set them in the firmament of the heauen, to shine vpon the earth,
18 láti ṣàkóso ọ̀sán àti òru àti láti pààlà sí àárín ìmọ́lẹ̀ àti òkùnkùn. Ọlọ́run sì rí i pé ó dára.
And to rule in the day, and in the night, and to separate the light from the darkenesse: and God saw that it was good.
19 Àṣálẹ́ àti òwúrọ̀ sì jẹ́ ọjọ́ kẹrin.
So the euening and the morning were the fourth day.
20 Ọlọ́run sì wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí omi kí ó kún fún àwọn ohun alààyè, kí àwọn ẹyẹ kí ó sì máa fò ní òfúrufú.”
Afterward God said, Let the waters bring foorth in abundance euery creeping thing that hath life: and let the foule flie vpon the earth in the open firmament of the heauen.
21 Nítorí náà Ọlọ́run dá àwọn ẹ̀dá alààyè ńlá ńlá sí inú òkun, àwọn ohun ẹlẹ́mìí àti àwọn ohun tí ń rìn ní onírúurú tiwọn, àti àwọn ẹyẹ abìyẹ́ ní onírúurú tiwọn. Ọlọ́run sì rí i pé ó dára.
Then God created the great whales, and euery thing liuing and mouing, which the waters brought foorth in abundance according to their kinde, and euery fethered foule according to his kinde: and God sawe that it was good.
22 Ọlọ́run súre fún wọn, ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ máa bí sí i, ẹ sì máa pọ̀ sí i, ẹ kún inú omi òkun, kí àwọn ẹyẹ náà sì máa pọ̀ sí i ní orí ilẹ̀.”
Then God blessed them, saying, Bring foorth fruite and multiplie, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the foule multiplie in the earth.
23 Àṣálẹ́ àti òwúrọ̀ sì jẹ́ ọjọ́ karùn-ún.
So the euening and the morning were the fifte day.
24 Ọlọ́run sì wí pé, “Kí ilẹ̀ kí ó mú ohun alààyè jáde ní onírúurú wọn: ẹran ọ̀sìn, àwọn ohun afàyàfà àti àwọn ẹran inú igbó, ọ̀kọ̀ọ̀kan ní irú tirẹ̀.” Ó sì rí bẹ́ẹ̀.
Moreouer God said, Let the earth bring foorth the liuing thing according to his kinde, cattel, and that which creepeth, and the beast of the earth, according to his kinde. and it was so.
25 Ọlọ́run sì dá ẹranko inú igbó àti ẹran ọ̀sìn gbogbo ní irú tirẹ̀ àti gbogbo ohun alààyè tí ń rìn ní ilẹ̀ ní irú tirẹ̀. Ọlọ́run sì rí i pé ó dára.
And God made the beast of the earth according to his kinde, and the cattell according to his kinde, and euery creeping thing of the earth according to his kind: and God saw that it was good.
26 Lẹ́yìn náà ni Ọlọ́run wí pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí a dá ènìyàn ní àwòrán ara wa, gẹ́gẹ́ bí àwa ti rí, kí wọn kí ó jẹ ọba lórí ẹja òkun, ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run, ẹran ọ̀sìn, gbogbo ilẹ̀ àti lórí ohun gbogbo tí ń rìn lórí ilẹ̀.”
Furthermore God said, Let vs make man in our image according to our likenes, and let them rule ouer the fish of the sea, and ouer the foule of the heauen, and ouer the beastes, and ouer all the earth, and ouer euery thing that creepeth and moueth on the earth.
27 Nítorí náà, Ọlọ́run dá ènìyàn ní àwòrán ara rẹ̀, ní àwòrán Ọlọ́run ni ó dá a, akọ àti abo ni ó dá wọn.
Thus God created the man in his image: in the image of God created he him: he created them male and female.
28 Ọlọ́run sì súre fún wọn, Ọlọ́run sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ máa bí sí i, kí ẹ sì máa pọ̀ sí i, kí ẹ sì gbilẹ̀, kí ẹ ṣe ìkápá ayé. Ẹ ṣe àkóso àwọn ẹja inú òkun, ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run àti gbogbo ẹ̀dá alààyè tí ó ń rìn ní orí ilẹ̀.”
And God blessed them, and God said to them, Bring forth fruite and multiplie, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule ouer the fish of the sea, and ouer the foule of the heauen, and ouer euery beast that moueth vpon the earth.
29 Nígbà náà ni Ọlọ́run wí pé, “Mo fi gbogbo ohun ọ̀gbìn tí ń so èso fún un yín bí oúnjẹ àti àwọn igi eléso pẹ̀lú. Gbogbo rẹ̀ yóò jẹ́ oúnjẹ fún un yín.
And God said, Beholde, I haue giuen vnto you euery herbe bearing seede, which is vpon al the earth, and euery tree, wherein is the fruite of a tree bearing seede: that shall be to you for meate.
30 Àti fún àwọn ẹranko inú igbó àti ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run àti àwọn ohun afàyàfà, gbogbo ohun tó ní èémí ìyè nínú ni mo fi ewéko fún bí oúnjẹ.” Ó sì rí bẹ́ẹ̀.
Likewise to euery beast of the earth, and to euery foule of the heauen, and to euery thing that moueth vpon the earth, which hath life in it selfe, euery greene herbe shall be for meate. and it was so.
31 Ọlọ́run sì rí àwọn ohun gbogbo tí ó dá, ó dára gidigidi. Àṣálẹ́ àti òwúrọ̀ sì jẹ́ ọjọ́ kẹfà.
And God sawe all that he had made, and loe, it was very good. So the euening and the morning were the sixt day.
