Genesis 1
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
U početku stvori Bog nebo i zemlju.
2 Now the earth was formless and empty, and darkness was on the surface of the watery depths. And God's Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.
Zemlja bijaše pusta i prazna; tama se prostirala nad bezdanom i Duh Božji lebdio je nad vodama.
3 And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
I reče Bog: “Neka bude svjetlost!” I bi svjetlost.
4 And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness.
I vidje Bog da je svjetlost dobra; i rastavi Bog svjetlost od tame.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. There was evening and there was morning, one day.
Svjetlost prozva Bog dan, a tamu prozva noć. Tako bude večer, pa jutro - dan prvi.
6 And God said, "Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it separate the waters from the waters." And it was so.
I reče Bog: “Neka bude svod posred voda da dijeli vode od voda!” I bi tako.
7 And God made the expanse, and separated the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse.
Bog načini svod i vode pod svodom odijeli od voda nad svodom.
8 And God called the expanse Sky. And God saw that it was good. There was evening and there was morning, a second day.
A svod prozva Bog nebo. Tako bude večer, pa jutro - dan drugi.
9 And God said, "Let the waters under the sky be gathered to one gathering, and let the dry land appear." And it was so. And the waters under the sky gathered to their gatherings, and the dry land appeared.
I reče Bog: “Vode pod nebom neka se skupe na jedno mjesto i neka se pokaže kopno!” I bi tako.
10 And God called the dry land Earth, and the gatherings of the waters he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
Kopno prozva Bog zemlja, a skupljene vode mora. I vidje Bog da je dobro.
11 And God said, "Let the earth produce vegetation, plants yielding seed after its kind, and fruit trees bearing fruit with seed in it after its kind, on the earth." And it was so.
I reče Bog: “Neka proklija zemlja zelenilom - travom sjemenitom, stablima plodonosnim, koja, svako prema svojoj vrsti, na zemlji donose plod što u sebi nosi svoje sjeme. I bi tako.
12 And the earth brought forth vegetation, plants yielding seed after its kind, and fruit trees bearing fruit with seed in it after its kind, on the earth. And God saw that it was good.
I nikne iz zemlje zelena trava što se sjemeni, svaka prema svojoj vrsti, i stabla koja rode plodovima što u sebi nose svoje sjeme, svako prema svojoj vrsti. I vidje Bog da je dobro.
13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day.
Tako bude večer, pa jutro - dan treći.
14 And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky for the illumination of the day, to give light on the earth, and to rule the day and the night, and to separate between the day and the night. And let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and for years;
I reče Bog: “Neka budu svjetlila na svodu nebeskom da luče dan od noći, da budu znaci blagdanima, danima i godinama,
15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth." And it was so.
i neka svijetle na svodu nebeskom i rasvjetljuju zemlju!” I bi tako.
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.
I načini Bog dva velika svjetlila - veće da vlada danom, manje da vlada noću - i zvijezde.
17 And God set them in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth,
I Bog ih postavi na svod nebeski da rasvjetljuju zemlju,
18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
da vladaju danom i noću i da rastavljaju svjetlost od tame. I vidje Bog da je dobro.
19 There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
Tako bude večer, pa jutro - dan četvrti.
20 And God said, "Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let flying creatures fly above the earth in the open expanse of the sky." And it was so.
I reče Bog: “Nek' povrvi vodom vreva živih stvorova, i ptice nek' polete nad zemljom, svodom nebeskim!” I bi tako.
21 And God created the large sea creatures, and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after its kind, and every winged flying creature after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Stvori Bog morske grdosije i svakovrsne žive stvorove što mile i vrve vodom i ptice krilate svake vrste. I vidje Bog da je dobro.
22 And God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let the flying creatures multiply on the earth."
I blagoslovi ih govoreći: “Plodite se i množite i napunite vode morske! I ptice neka se namnože na zemlji!”
23 There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
Tako bude večer, pa jutro - dan peti.
24 And God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after its kind: tame animals, and crawling creatures, and wild animals of the earth after its kind." And it was so.
I reče Bog: “Neka zemlja izvede živa bića, svako prema svojoj vrsti: stoku, gmizavce i zvjerad svake vrste!” I bi tako.
25 And God made the wild animals of the earth after its kind, and the tame animals after its kind, and everything that crawls on the ground after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
I stvori Bog svakovrsnu zvjerad, stoku i gmizavce svake vrste. I vidje Bog da je dobro.
26 And God said, "Let us make humankind in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the flying creatures of the sky, and over the tame animals, and over all the wild animals of the earth, and over every creature that crawls on the earth." And it was so.
I reče Bog: “Načinimo čovjeka na svoju sliku, sebi slična, da bude gospodar ribama morskim, pticama nebeskim i stoci - svoj zemlji - i svim gmizavcima što puze po zemlji!”
27 And God created humankind in his own image. In God's image he created him; male and female he created them.
Na svoju sliku stvori Bog čovjeka, na sliku Božju on ga stvori, muško i žensko stvori ih.
28 And God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the flying creatures of the sky, and over all the tame animals, and over all the wild animals of the earth, and over all the creatures that crawl on the earth."
I blagoslovi ih Bog i reče im: “Plodite se, i množite, i napunite zemlju, i sebi je podložite! Vladajte ribama u moru i pticama u zraku i svim živim stvorovima što puze po zemlji!”
29 And God said, "Look, I have given you every plant yielding seed, which is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree, which bears fruit yielding seed. It will be your food.
I doda Bog: “Evo, dajem vam sve bilje što se sjemeni, po svoj zemlji, i sva stabla plodonosna što u sebi nose svoje sjeme: neka vam budu za hranu!
30 And to every wild animal of the earth, and to every tame animal of the earth, and to every flying creature of the sky, and to every creature that crawls on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green plant for food."
A zvijerima na zemlji i pticama u zraku i gmizavcima što puze po zemlji u kojima je dah života - neka je za hranu sve zeleno bilje!” I bi tako.
31 And God saw everything that he had made, and look, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
I vidje Bog sve što je učinio, i bijaše veoma dobro. Tako bude večer, pa jutro - dan šesti.
