Genesis 2
1 And the heavens and the earth were finished, and the whole world of them.
Tako sta bila končana nebo in zemlja in vsa njuna vojska.
2 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.
[7. dan] Na sedmi dan je Bog končal svoje delo, ki ga je naredil; in na sedmi dan je počival od vsega svojega dela, ki ga je naredil.
3 And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it he ceased from all his works which God began to do.
Bog je blagoslovil sedmi dan ter ga posvetil, zato ker je na ta [dan] počival od vsega svojega dela, ki ga je Bog ustvaril in naredil.
4 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,
To so rodovi neba in zemlje, ko so bili ustvarjeni, na dan, ko je Gospod Bog naredil zemljo in nebo
5 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.
in vsako poljsko rastlino, preden je bila na zemlji in vsako poljsko zelišče, preden je zraslo, kajti Gospod Bog na zemljo ni poslal dežja in ni bilo človeka, da obdeluje tla.
6 But there rose a fountain out of the earth, and watered the whole face of the earth.
Toda meglica se je dvigala iz zemlje in namakala celotno obličje tal.
7 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.
Gospod Bog je iz prahu tal oblikoval človeka in v njegove nosnice vdihnil dih življenja, in človek je postal živa duša.
8 And God planted a garden eastward in Edem, and placed there the man whom he had formed.
Gospod Bog je zasadil vrt proti vzhodu v Edenu in tja je postavil človeka, ki ga je oblikoval.
9 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.
Gospod Bog je naredil, da iz tal požene vsako drevo, ki je prijetno pogledu in dobro za hrano; tudi drevo življenja v sredi vrta in drevo spoznanja dobrega in zla.
10 And a river proceeds out of Edem to water the garden, thence it divides itself into four heads.
In reka je izvirala iz Edena, da namaka vrt in od tam je bila razdeljena v štiri glave.
11 The name of the one, Phisom, this it is which encircles the whole land of Evilat, where there is gold.
Ime prve je Pišón. To je ta, ki obkroža celotno deželo Havilá, kjer je zlato
12 And the gold of that land is good, there also is carbuncle and emerald.
in zlato te dežele je dobro; tam je bdelij in kamen oniks.
13 And the name of the second river is Geon, this it is which encircles the whole land of Ethiopia.
Ime druge reke je Gihon. Ta ista je ta, ki obkroža celotno deželo Etiopijo.
14 And the third river is Tigris, this is that which flows forth over against the Assyrians. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
Ime tretje reke je Hidekel. To je ta, ki gre proti vzhodu Asirije. In četrta reka je Evfrat.
15 And the Lord God took the man whom he had formed, and placed him in the garden of Delight, to cultivate and keep it.
Gospod Bog je vzel človeka ter ga postavil v edenski vrt, da ga prirezuje in da ga varuje.
16 And the Lord God gave a charge to Adam, saying, Of every tree which is in the garden you may freely eat,
Gospod Bog je človeku zapovedal, rekoč: »Od vsakega vrtnega drevesa lahko prosto ješ,
17 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.
toda od drevesa spoznanja dobrega in zla, ne smeš jesti od njega, kajti na dan, ko boš od njega jedel, boš zagotovo umrl.«
18 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.
Gospod Bog je rekel: » To ni dobro, da bi bil človek sam. Naredil mu bom pomoč, primerno zanj.«
19 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.
Iz tal je Gospod Bog oblikoval vsako poljsko žival in vsako zračno perjad in jih privedel k Adamu, da vidi, kako jih bo poimenoval. In kakorkoli je Adam vsako živo ustvarjeno bitje poimenoval, to je bilo njeno ime.
20 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.
Adam je dal imena vsej živini, zračni perjadi in vsaki poljski živali, toda za Adama ni bilo najti pomoči, primerne zanj.
21 And God brought a trance upon Adam, and he slept, and he took one of his ribs, and filled up the flesh instead thereof.
Gospod Bog je storil, da je na Adama padlo globoko spanje in je zaspal. Vzel je eno izmed njegovih reber ter namesto le-tega zaprl meso
22 And God formed the rib which he took from Adam into a woman, and brought her to Adam.
in [iz] rebra, ki ga je Gospod Bog vzel iz človeka, je naredil žensko in jo privedel k človeku.
23 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.
Adam je rekel: »To je sedaj kost iz mojih kosti in meso iz mojega mesa. Imenovala se bo Ženska, ker je bila vzeta iz Moškega.«
24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
Zatorej bo moški zapustil svojega očeta in svojo mater in se bo trdno pridružil svoji ženi in oba bosta eno meso.
Oba sta bila naga, mož in njegova žena in ni ju bilo sram.
