< Genesis 2 >

1 Báyìí ni Ọlọ́run parí dídá àwọn ọ̀run àti ayé, àti ohun gbogbo tí ó wà nínú rẹ̀.
Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all their vast array.
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 on the sixth day God finished his works which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his works which he had 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.
So God blessed the seventh day, and made it holy, because he rested on it from all his works which God had created and made.
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 account of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, at the time when God made the earth and the heavens.
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.
Now no bush of the field was yet in the land, and no plant of the field had yet sprouted; for God had not caused it to rain on the land, and there were no people to cultivate the ground,
6 Ṣùgbọ́n ìsun omi ń jáde láti ilẹ̀, ó sì ń bu omi rin gbogbo ilẹ̀.
but springs came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground.
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 man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.
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 Eden, and there he put 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 out of the ground God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the middle of the garden, and the tree of 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 went out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it separated and became the source of four rivers.
11 Orúkọ èkínní ni Pisoni, òun ni ó sàn yí gbogbo ilẹ̀ Hafila ká, níbi tí wúrà gbé wà.
The name of the first is Pishon; this is the one which goes around the whole land of Havilah, 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 is aromatic resin and the onyx stone.
13 Orúkọ odò kejì ni Gihoni, òun ni ó sàn yí gbogbo ilẹ̀ Kuṣi ká.
And the name of the second river is Gihon; it goes around the whole land of Cush.
14 Orúkọ odò kẹta ni Tigirisi, òun ni ó sàn ní apá ìlà-oòrùn ilẹ̀ Asiria. Odò kẹrin ni Eufurate.
And the name of the third river is Hiddekel; this is the one which flows east of Ashur. And the fourth river is the Perath.
15 Olúwa Ọlọ́run mú ọkùnrin náà sínú ọgbà Edeni láti máa ṣe iṣẹ́ níbẹ̀, kí ó sì máa ṣe ìtọ́jú rẹ̀.
And God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate it and take care of it.
16 Olúwa Ọlọ́run sì pàṣẹ fún ọkùnrin náà pé, “Ìwọ lè jẹ lára èyíkéyìí èso àwọn igi inú ọgbà;
And God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of 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, you shall not eat of it; for in the day that you eat of it you will 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 God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for 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 out of the ground God formed every tame animal, and every wild animal, and every flying creature of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. And whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name.
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 the man gave names to all the tame animals, and to all the flying creatures of the sky, and to every wild animal; but for Adam there was not found a helper suitable for him.
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.
So God caused a deep sleep to fall on the man, and he slept; and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh at that place.
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 the rib that God had taken from the man he fashioned into a woman and brought her to the man.
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 the man said, "This at last is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called Woman, because this one was taken out of Man."
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 a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and the two will become one flesh.
25 Ọkùnrin náà àti aya rẹ̀ sì wà ní ìhòhò, ojú kò sì tì wọ́n.
And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.
