+ Genesis 1 >

1 IN THE beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
No princípio criou Deus os céus e a terra.
2 Now the earth was unformed and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep; and the spirit of God hovered over the face of the waters.
E a terra era sem forma e vazia; e havia trevas sobre a face do abismo: e o espírito de Deus se movia sobre a face das águas.
3 And God said: 'Let there be light.' And there was light.
E disse Deus: Haja luz: e houve luz.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness.
E viu Deus que era boa a luz: e fez Deus separação entre a luz e as trevas.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day.
E Deus chamou à luz Dia; e às trevas chamou Noite. E foi a tarde e a manhã, o dia primeiro.
6 And God said: 'Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.'
E disse Deus: Haja uma expansão no meio das águas, e haja separação entre águas e águas.
7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so.
E fez Deus a expansão, e fez separação entre as águas que estavam debaixo da expansão e as águas que estavam sobre a expansão: e assim foi.
8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And there was evening and there was morning, a second day.
E chamou Deus à expansão Céus, e foi a tarde e a manhã o dia segundo.
9 And God said: 'Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear.' And it was so.
E disse Deus: Ajuntem-se as águas debaixo dos céus num lugar; e apareça a porção seca: e assim foi.
10 And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters called He Seas; and God saw that it was good.
E chamou Deus à porção seca Terra; e ao ajuntamento das águas chamou Mares: e viu Deus que era bom.
11 And God said: 'Let the earth put forth grass, herb yielding seed, and fruit-tree bearing fruit after its kind, wherein is the seed thereof, upon the earth.' And it was so.
Disse Deus: Produza a terra erva verde, erva que dê semente, árvore frutífera que dê fruto segundo a sua espécie, cuja semente está nela sobre a terra: e assim foi.
12 And the earth brought forth grass, herb yielding seed after its kind, and tree bearing fruit, wherein is the seed thereof, after its kind; and God saw that it was good.
E a terra produziu erva, erva dando semente conforme a sua espécie, e a árvore frutífera, cuja semente está nela conforme a sua espécie: e viu Deus que era bom.
13 And there was evening and there was morning, a third day.
E foi a tarde, e a manhã, o dia terceiro.
14 And God said: 'Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;
E disse Deus: Haja luminares na expansão dos céus, para haver separação entre o dia e a noite; e sejam eles para sinais e para tempos determinados e para dias e anos.
15 and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth.' And it was so.
E sejam para luminares na expansão dos céus, para alumiar a terra: e assim foi.
16 And God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night; and the stars.
E fez Deus os dois grandes luminares: o luminar maior para governar o dia, e o luminar menor para governar a noite; e as estrelas.
17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
E Deus os pôs na expansão dos céus para alumiar a terra,
18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness; and God saw that it was good.
E para governar o dia e a noite, e para fazer separação entre a luz e as trevas: e viu Deus que era bom.
19 And there was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
E foi a tarde, e a manhã, o dia quarto.
20 And God said: 'Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let fowl fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.'
E disse Deus: Produzam as águas abundantemente réptis de alma vivente; e vôem as aves sobre a face da expansão dos céus.
21 And God created the great sea-monsters, and every living creature that creepeth, wherewith the waters swarmed, after its kind, and every winged fowl after its kind; and God saw that it was good.
E Deus criou as grandes baleias, e todo o réptil de alma vivente que as águas abundantemente produziram conforme as suas espécies; e toda a ave de asas conforme a sua espécie: e viu Deus que era bom.
22 And God blessed them, saying: 'Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.'
E Deus as abençoou, dizendo: frutificai e multiplicai-vos, e enchei as águas nos mares; e as aves se multipliquem na terra.
23 And there was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
E foi a tarde, e a manhã, o dia quinto.
24 And God said: 'Let the earth bring forth the living creature after its kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after its kind.' And it was so.
E disse Deus: Produza a terra alma vivente conforme a sua espécie; gado e réptis, e bestas feras da terra conforme a sua espécie: e assim foi.
25 And God made the beast of the earth after its kind, and the cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the ground after its kind; and God saw that it was good.
E fez Deus as bestas feras da terra conforme a sua espécie, e o gado conforme a sua espécie, e todo o réptil da terra conforme a sua espécie: e viu Deus que era bom.
26 And God said: 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.'
E disse Deus: Façamos o homem à nossa imagem, conforme à nossa semelhança: e domine sobre os peixes do mar, e sobre as aves dos céus, e sobre o gado, e sobre toda a terra, e sobre todo o réptil que se move sobre a terra.
27 And God created man in His own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created He them.
E criou Deus o homem à sua imagem: à imagem de Deus o criou: macho e fêmea os criou.
28 And God blessed them; and God said unto them: 'Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that creepeth upon the earth.'
E Deus os abençoou, e Deus lhes disse: frutificai e multiplicai-vos, e enchei a terra, e sujeitai-a: e dominai sobre os peixes do mar, e sobre as aves dos céus, e sobre todo o animal que se move sobre a terra.
29 And God said: 'Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed — to you it shall be for food;
E disse Deus: Eis que vos tenho dado toda a erva que dá semente, que está sobre a face de toda a terra; e toda a árvore, em que há fruto de árvore que dá semente, ser-vos-a para mantimento.
30 and to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is a living soul, I have given every green herb for food.' And it was so.
E todo o animal da terra, e toda a ave dos céus, e todo o réptil da terra, em que há alma vivente; toda a erva verde será para mantimento: e assim foi.
31 And God saw every thing that He had made, and, behold, it was very good. And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day.
E viu Deus tudo quanto tinha feito, e eis que era muito bom: e foi a tarde, e a manhã, o dia sexto.
