< Genesis 2 >

1 Báyìí ni Ọlọ́run parí dídá àwọn ọ̀run àti ayé, àti ohun gbogbo tí ó wà nínú rẹ̀.
And the heavens and the earth were finished, and the whole world of them.
2 Ní ọjọ́ keje Ọlọ́run sì parí iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ tí ó ti ń ṣe; ó sì sinmi ní ọjọ́ keje kúrò nínú iṣẹ́ rẹ̀ gbogbo tí ó ti ń ṣe.
And God finished on the sixth day his works which he made, and he ceased on the seventh day from all his works which he made.
3 Ọlọ́run sì súre fún ọjọ́ keje, ó sì yà á sí mímọ́, nítorí pé ní ọjọ́ náà ni ó sinmi kúrò nínú iṣẹ́ dídá ayé tí ó ti ń ṣe.
And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it he ceased from all his works which God began to do.
4 Èyí ni ìtàn bí Ọlọ́run ṣe dá àwọn ọ̀run àti ayé nígbà tí ó dá wọn. Nígbà tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run dá ayé àti àwọn ọ̀run.
This [is] the book of the generation of heaven and earth, when they were made, in the day in which the Lord God made the heaven and the earth,
5 Kò sí igi igbó kan ní orí ilẹ̀, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kò sí ewéko igbó kan tí ó tí ì hù jáde ní ilẹ̀, nítorí Olúwa Ọlọ́run kò tí ì rọ̀jò sórí ilẹ̀, kò sì sí ènìyàn láti ro ilẹ̀.
and every herb of the field before it was on the earth, and all the grass of the field before it sprang up, for God had not rained on the earth, and there was not a man to cultivate it.
6 Ṣùgbọ́n ìsun omi ń jáde láti ilẹ̀, ó sì ń bu omi rin gbogbo ilẹ̀.
But there rose a fountain out of the earth, and watered the whole face of the earth.
7 Olúwa Ọlọ́run sì fi erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀ mọ ènìyàn, ó si mí èémí ìyè sí ihò imú rẹ̀, ènìyàn sì di alààyè ọkàn.
And God formed the man [of] dust of the earth, and breathed upon his face the breath of life, and the man became a living soul.
8 Olúwa Ọlọ́run sì gbin ọgbà kan sí Edeni ní ìhà ìlà-oòrùn, níbẹ̀ ni ó fi ọkùnrin náà tí ó ti dá sí.
And God planted a garden eastward in Edem, and placed there the man whom he had formed.
9 Olúwa Ọlọ́run sì mú kí onírúurú igi hù jáde láti inú ilẹ̀, àwọn igi tí ó dùn ún wò lójú, tí ó sì dára fún oúnjẹ. Ní àárín ọgbà náà ni igi ìyè àti igi tí ń mú ènìyàn mọ rere àti búburú wà.
And God made to spring up also out of the earth every tree beautiful to the eye and good for food, and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of learning the knowledge of good and evil.
10 Odò kan sì ń ti Edeni sàn wá láti bu omi rin ọgbà náà, láti ibẹ̀ ni odò náà gbé ya sí ipa mẹ́rin.
And a river proceeds out of Edem to water the garden, thence it divides itself into four heads.
11 Orúkọ èkínní ni Pisoni, òun ni ó sàn yí gbogbo ilẹ̀ Hafila ká, níbi tí wúrà gbé wà.
The name of the one, Phisom, this it is which encircles the whole land of Evilat, where there is gold.
12 (Wúrà ilẹ̀ náà dára, òjìá àti òkúta óníkìsì oníyebíye wà níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú).
And the gold of that land is good, there also is carbuncle and emerald.
13 Orúkọ odò kejì ni Gihoni, òun ni ó sàn yí gbogbo ilẹ̀ Kuṣi ká.
And the name of the second river is Geon, this it is which encircles the whole land of Ethiopia.
14 Orúkọ odò kẹta ni Tigirisi, òun ni ó sàn ní apá ìlà-oòrùn ilẹ̀ Asiria. Odò kẹrin ni Eufurate.
And the third river is Tigris, this is that which flows forth over against the Assyrians. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
15 Olúwa Ọlọ́run mú ọkùnrin náà sínú ọgbà Edeni láti máa ṣe iṣẹ́ níbẹ̀, kí ó sì máa ṣe ìtọ́jú rẹ̀.
And the Lord God took the man whom he had formed, and placed him in the garden of Delight, to cultivate and keep it.
16 Olúwa Ọlọ́run sì pàṣẹ fún ọkùnrin náà pé, “Ìwọ lè jẹ lára èyíkéyìí èso àwọn igi inú ọgbà;
And the Lord God gave a charge to Adam, saying, Of every tree which is in the garden you may freely eat,
17 ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ nínú èso igi ìmọ̀ rere àti èso igi ìmọ̀ búburú, nítorí ní ọjọ́ tí ìwọ bá jẹ ẹ́ ni ìwọ yóò kùú.”
but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil—of it you shall not eat, but in whatever day you eat of it, you shall surely die.
18 Olúwa Ọlọ́run wí pé, “Kò dára kí ọkùnrin wà ní òun nìkan. Èmi yóò ṣe olùrànlọ́wọ́ tí ó rí bí i rẹ̀ fún un.”
And the Lord God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone, let us make for him a help suitable to him.
19 Lẹ́yìn tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run ti dá àwọn ẹranko inú igbó àti gbogbo ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run láti inú erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀. Ó sì kó wọn tọ ọkùnrin náà wá láti wo orúkọ tí yóò sọ wọ́n; orúkọ tí ó sì sọ gbogbo ẹ̀dá alààyè náà ni wọ́n ń jẹ́.
And God formed yet farther out of the earth all the wild beasts of the field, and all the birds of the sky, and he brought them to Adam, to see what he would call them, and whatever Adam called any living creature, that was the name of it.
20 Gbogbo ohun ọ̀sìn, ẹyẹ ojú ọ̀run àti gbogbo ẹranko igbó ni ọkùnrin náà sọ ní orúkọ. Ṣùgbọ́n fún Adamu ni a kò rí olùrànlọ́wọ́ tí ó rí bí i rẹ̀.
And Adam gave names to all the cattle and to all the birds of the sky, and to all the wild beasts of the field, but for Adam there was not found a help like to himself.
21 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run mú kí ọkùnrin náà sùn fọnfọn; nígbà tí ó sì ń sùn, Ọlọ́run yọ egungun ìhà rẹ̀ kan, ó sì fi ẹran-ara bò ó padà.
And God brought a trance upon Adam, and he slept, and he took one of his ribs, and filled up the flesh instead thereof.
22 Olúwa Ọlọ́run sì dá obìnrin láti inú egungun tí ó yọ ní ìhà ọkùnrin náà, Ó sì mu obìnrin náà tọ̀ ọ́ wá.
And God formed the rib which he took from Adam into a woman, and brought her to Adam.
23 Ọkùnrin náà sì wí pé, “Èyí ni egungun láti inú egungun mi àti ẹran-ara nínú ẹran-ara mi; ‘obìnrin’ ni a ó máa pè é, nítorí a mú un jáde láti ara ọkùnrin.”
And Adam said, This now is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called woman, because she was taken out of her husband.
24 Nítorí ìdí èyí, ọkùnrin yóò fi baba àti ìyá rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, yóò sì dàpọ̀ mọ́ aya rẹ̀, wọn yóò sì di ara kan.
Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
25 Ọkùnrin náà àti aya rẹ̀ sì wà ní ìhòhò, ojú kò sì tì wọ́n.
