< 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 are completed, and all their host;
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 completeth by the seventh day His work which He hath made, and ceaseth by the seventh day from all His work which He hath 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 blesseth the seventh day, and sanctifieth it, for in it He hath ceased from all His work which God had prepared for making.
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.
These [are] births of the heavens and of the earth in their being prepared, in the day of Jehovah God's making earth and 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.
and no shrub of the field is yet in the earth, and no herb of the field yet sprouteth, for Jehovah God hath not rained upon the earth, and a man there is not to serve the ground,
6 Ṣùgbọ́n ìsun omi ń jáde láti ilẹ̀, ó sì ń bu omi rin gbogbo ilẹ̀.
and a mist goeth up from the earth, and hath watered the whole face 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 Jehovah God formeth the man — dust from the ground, and breatheth into his nostrils breath of life, and the man becometh a living creature.
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 Jehovah God planteth a garden in Eden, at the east, and He setteth there the man whom He hath 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 Jehovah God causeth to sprout from the ground every tree desirable for appearance, and good for food, and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of 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 is going out from Eden to water the garden, and from thence it is parted, and hath become four chief [rivers];
11 Orúkọ èkínní ni Pisoni, òun ni ó sàn yí gbogbo ilẹ̀ Hafila ká, níbi tí wúrà gbé wà.
the name of the one [is] Pison, it [is] that which is surrounding the whole land of the Havilah where the gold [is],
12 (Wúrà ilẹ̀ náà dára, òjìá àti òkúta óníkìsì oníyebíye wà níbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú).
and the gold of that land [is] good, there [is] the bdolach and the shoham stone;
13 Orúkọ odò kejì ni Gihoni, òun ni ó sàn yí gbogbo ilẹ̀ Kuṣi ká.
and the name of the second river [is] Gibon, it [is] that which is surrounding 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, it [is] that which is going east of Asshur; and the fourth river is Phrat.
15 Olúwa Ọlọ́run mú ọkùnrin náà sínú ọgbà Edeni láti máa ṣe iṣẹ́ níbẹ̀, kí ó sì máa ṣe ìtọ́jú rẹ̀.
And Jehovah God taketh the man, and causeth him to rest in the garden of Eden, to serve it, and to keep it.
16 Olúwa Ọlọ́run sì pàṣẹ fún ọkùnrin náà pé, “Ìwọ lè jẹ lára èyíkéyìí èso àwọn igi inú ọgbà;
And Jehovah God layeth a charge on the man, saying, 'Of every tree of the garden eating thou dost 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.”
and of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou dost not eat of it, for in the day of thine eating of it — dying thou dost 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 Jehovah God saith, 'Not good for the man to be alone, I do make to him an helper — as his counterpart.'
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 Jehovah God formeth from the ground every beast of the field, and every fowl of the heavens, and bringeth in unto the man, to see what he doth call it; and whatever the man calleth a living creature, that [is] 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 calleth names to all the cattle, and to fowl of the heavens, and to every beast of the field; and to man hath not been found an helper — as his counterpart.
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 Jehovah God causeth a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he sleepeth, and He taketh one of his ribs, and closeth up flesh in its stead.
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 Jehovah God buildeth up the rib which He hath taken out of the man into a woman, and bringeth her in unto 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 saith, 'This [is] the [proper] step! bone of my bone, and flesh of my flesh!' for this it is called Woman, for from a man hath this been taken;
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 doth a man leave his father and his mother, and hath cleaved unto his wife, and they have become one flesh.
25 Ọkùnrin náà àti aya rẹ̀ sì wà ní ìhòhò, ojú kò sì tì wọ́n.
And they are both of them naked, the man and his wife, and they are not ashamed of themselves.
