Kejadian 2
1 Maka selesailah penciptaan seluruh alam semesta.
Then the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the living things that filled them.
2 Pada hari yang ketujuh Allah telah menyelesaikan pekerjaan-Nya itu, lalu Ia beristirahat.
On the seventh day God came to the end of his work which he had done, and so he rested on the seventh day from all his work.
3 Maka diberkati-Nya hari yang ketujuh itu dan dijadikan-Nya hari yang khusus, karena pada hari itu Allah beristirahat setelah menyelesaikan pekerjaan-Nya.
God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it he rested from all his work which he had done in his creation.
4 Itulah riwayat penciptaan alam semesta. Ketika TUHAN Allah membuat alam semesta,
These were the events concerning the heavens and the earth, when they were created, on the day that Yahweh God made the earth and the heavens.
5 belum ada benih yang bertunas dan belum ada tanam-tanaman di bumi, karena TUHAN belum menurunkan hujan dan belum ada orang untuk mengerjakan tanah itu.
No bush of the field was yet in the earth, and no plant of the field had yet sprouted, for Yahweh God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was no man to cultivate the ground.
6 Tetapi air mulai merembes dari bawah dan membasahi permukaan bumi.
But a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground.
7 Kemudian TUHAN Allah mengambil sedikit tanah, membentuknya menjadi seorang manusia, lalu menghembuskan napas yang memberi hidup ke dalam lubang hidungnya; maka hiduplah manusia itu.
Yahweh God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living being.
8 Selanjutnya TUHAN Allah membuat taman di Eden, di sebelah timur, dan ditempatkan-Nya di situ manusia yang sudah dibentuk-Nya itu.
Yahweh God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed.
9 TUHAN Allah menumbuhkan segala macam pohon yang indah, yang menghasilkan buah-buahan yang baik. Di tengah-tengah taman tumbuhlah pohon yang memberi hidup, dan pohon yang memberi pengetahuan tentang yang baik dan yang jahat.
Out of the ground Yahweh God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. This included the tree of life that was in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10 Sebuah sungai mengalir dari Eden, membasahi taman itu; dan di luar Eden sungai itu terbagi menjadi empat cabang.
A river went out of Eden to water the garden. From there it divided and became four rivers.
11 Yang pertama bernama Pison; sungai itu mengalir mengelilingi tanah Hawila.
The name of the first is Pishon. It is the one which flows throughout the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.
12 Di situ terdapat emas murni dan juga wangi-wangian yang sulit diperoleh, serta batu-batu permata.
The gold of that land is good. There are also bdellium and the onyx stone.
13 Sungai yang kedua bernama Gihon; airnya mengalir mengelilingi tanah Kus.
The name of the second river is Gihon. This one flows throughout the whole land of Cush.
14 Sungai yang ketiga bernama Tigris dan mengalir di sebelah timur Asyur. Sungai yang keempat bernama Efrat.
The name of the third river is Tigris, which flows east of Ashur. The fourth river is the Euphrates.
15 Kemudian TUHAN Allah menempatkan manusia itu di taman Eden untuk mengerjakan dan memelihara taman itu.
Yahweh God took the man and put him into the garden of Eden to work it and to maintain it.
16 TUHAN berkata kepada manusia itu, "Engkau boleh makan buah-buahan dari semua pohon di taman ini,
Yahweh God commanded the man, saying, “From every tree in the garden you may freely eat.
17 kecuali dari pohon yang memberi pengetahuan tentang yang baik dan yang jahat. Buahnya tidak boleh engkau makan; jika engkau memakannya, engkau pasti akan mati pada hari itu juga."
But from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you may not eat, for on the day that you eat from it, you will surely die.”
18 Lalu TUHAN Allah berkata, "Tidak baik manusia hidup sendirian. Aku akan membuat teman yang cocok untuk membantunya."
Then Yahweh God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone. I will make him a helper suitable for him.”
19 Maka Ia mengambil sedikit tanah dan membentuk segala macam binatang darat dan binatang udara. Semuanya dibawa Allah kepada manusia itu untuk melihat nama apa yang akan diberikannya kepada binatang-binatang itu. Itulah asal mulanya binatang di darat dan di udara mendapat namanya masing-masing.
Out of the ground Yahweh God formed every animal of the field and every bird of the sky. Then he brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name.
20 Demikianlah manusia itu memberi nama kepada semua binatang di darat dan di udara. Tetapi tidak satu pun di antaranya bisa menjadi teman yang cocok untuk membantunya.
The man gave names to all the livestock, to all the birds of the sky, and to every beast of the field. But for the man himself there was found no helper suitable for him.
21 Lalu TUHAN Allah membuat manusia tidur nyenyak, dan selagi ia tidur, TUHAN Allah mengeluarkan salah satu rusuk dari tubuh manusia itu, lalu menutup bekasnya dengan daging.
Yahweh God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, so the man slept. Yahweh God took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh where he took the rib.
22 Dari rusuk itu TUHAN membentuk seorang perempuan, lalu membawanya kepada manusia itu.
With the rib that Yahweh God had taken from the man, he made a woman and brought her to the man.
23 Maka berkatalah manusia itu, "Ini dia, orang yang sama dengan aku--tulang dari tulangku, dan daging dari dagingku. Kunamakan dia perempuan, karena ia diambil dari laki-laki."
The man said, “This time, this one is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called 'woman,' because she was taken out of man.”
24 Itulah sebabnya orang laki-laki meninggalkan ayah dan ibunya, dan bersatu dengan istrinya, lalu keduanya menjadi satu.
Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, he will be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.
25 Laki-laki dan perempuan itu telanjang, tetapi mereka tidak merasa malu.
They were both naked, the man and his wife, but were not ashamed.
