Genesis 2
1 And the heaven and the earth and all things in them were complete.
Igitur perfecti sunt cæli et terra, et omnis ornatus eorum.
2 And on the seventh day God came to the end of all his work; and on the seventh day he took his rest from all the work which he had done.
Complevitque Deus die septimo opus suum quod fecerat: et requievit die septimo ab universo opere quod patrarat.
3 And God gave his blessing to the seventh day and made it holy: because on that day he took his rest from all the work which he had made and done.
Et benedixit diei septimo, et sanctificavit illum, quia in ipso cessaverat ab omni opere suo quod creavit Deus ut faceret.
4 These are the generations of the heaven and the earth when they were made.
Istæ sunt generationes cæli et terræ, quando creata sunt, in die quo fecit Dominus Deus cælum et terram,
5 In the day when the Lord God made earth and heaven there were no plants of the field on the earth, and no grass had come up: for the Lord God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no man to do work on the land.
et omne virgultum agri antequam oriretur in terra, omnemque herbam regionis priusquam germinaret: non enim pluerat Dominus Deus super terram, et homo non erat qui operaretur terram:
6 But a mist went up from the earth, watering all the face of the land.
sed fons ascendebat e terra, irrigans universam superficiem terræ.
7 And the Lord God made man from the dust of the earth, breathing into him the breath of life: and man became a living soul.
Formavit igitur Dominus Deus hominem de limo terræ, et inspiravit in faciem ejus spiraculum vitæ, et factus est homo in animam viventem.
8 And the Lord God made a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had made.
Plantaverat autem Dominus Deus paradisum voluptatis a principio, in quo posuit hominem quem formaverat.
9 And out of the earth the Lord made every tree to come, delighting the eye and good for food; and in the middle of the garden, the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Produxitque Dominus Deus de humo omne lignum pulchrum visu, et ad vescendum suave lignum etiam vitæ in medio paradisi, lignumque scientiæ boni et mali.
10 And a river went out of Eden giving water to the garden; and from there it was parted and became four streams.
Et fluvius egrediebatur de loco voluptatis ad irrigandum paradisum, qui inde dividitur in quatuor capita.
11 The name of the first is Pishon, which goes round about all the land of Havilah where there is gold.
Nomen uni Phison: ipse est qui circuit omnem terram Hevilath, ubi nascitur aurum:
12 And the gold of that land is good: there is bdellium and the onyx stone.
et aurum terræ illius optimum est; ibi invenitur bdellium, et lapis onychinus.
13 And the name of the second river is Gihon: this river goes round all the land of Cush.
Et nomen fluvii secundi Gehon; ipse est qui circumit omnem terram Æthiopiæ.
14 And the name of the third river is Tigris, which goes to the east of Assyria. And the fourth river is Euphrates.
Nomen vero fluminis tertii, Tigris: ipse vadit contra Assyrios. Fluvius autem quartus, ipse est Euphrates.
15 And the Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to do work in it and take care of it.
Tulit ergo Dominus Deus hominem, et posuit eum in paradiso voluptatis, ut operaretur, et custodiret illum:
16 And the Lord God gave the man orders, saying, You may freely take of the fruit of every tree of the garden:
præcepitque ei, dicens: Ex omni ligno paradisi comede;
17 But of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you may not take; for on the day when you take of it, death will certainly come to you.
de ligno autem scientiæ boni et mali ne comedas: in quocumque enim die comederis ex eo, morte morieris.
18 And the Lord God said, It is not good for the man to be by himself: I will make one like himself as a help to him
Dixit quoque Dominus Deus: Non est bonum esse hominem solum: faciamus ei adjutorium simile sibi.
19 And from the earth the Lord God made every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and took them to the man to see what names he would give them: and whatever name he gave to any living thing, that was its name.
Formatis igitur Dominus Deus de humo cunctis animantibus terræ, et universis volatilibus cæli, adduxit ea ad Adam, ut videret quid vocaret ea: omne enim quod vocavit Adam animæ viventis, ipsum est nomen ejus.
20 And the man gave names to all cattle and to the birds of the air and to every beast of the field; but Adam had no one like himself as a help.
Appellavitque Adam nominibus suis cuncta animantia, et universa volatilia cæli, et omnes bestias terræ: Adæ vero non inveniebatur adjutor similis ejus.
21 And the Lord God sent a deep sleep on the man, and took one of the bones from his side while he was sleeping, joining up the flesh again in its place:
Immisit ergo Dominus Deus soporem in Adam: cumque obdormisset, tulit unam de costis ejus, et replevit carnem pro ea.
22 And the bone which the Lord God had taken from the man he made into a woman, and took her to the man.
Et ædificavit Dominus Deus costam, quam tulerat de Adam, in mulierem: et adduxit eam ad Adam.
23 And the man said, This is now bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh: let her name be Woman because she was taken out of Man.
Dixitque Adam: Hoc nunc os ex ossibus meis, et caro de carne mea: hæc vocabitur Virago, quoniam de viro sumpta est.
24 For this cause will a man go away from his father and his mother and be joined to his wife; and they will be one flesh.
Quam ob rem relinquet homo patrem suum, et matrem, et adhærebit uxori suæ: et erunt duo in carne una.
25 And the man and his wife were without clothing, and they had no sense of shame.
Erat autem uterque nudus, Adam scilicet et uxor ejus: et non erubescebant.
