+ Genesis 1 >

1 Ke mutawauk, ke God El orala kusrao, faclu, ac ma nukewa,
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 faclu wangin lumah ac wangin koano. Lohsr matoltol afunla acn loal uh, ac Ngun lun God apisya fin kof uh.
Now the earth was formless and empty, and darkness was on the surface of the watery depths. And God's Ruach was hovering over the surface of the waters.
3 Na God El fahk, “Lela in oasr kalem” — ac kalem uh sikyak.
And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
4 God El insewowo ke ma El liye. Na El sraclik kalem liki lohsr uh,
And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness.
5 ac El pangon kalem uh “Len,” ac lohsr uh “Fong.” Ke safla eku sac na lotutang sikme — pa ingan len se emeet.
And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. There was evening and there was morning, one day.
6 Ac God El fahk, “Lela in oasr sie lisrlisr inmasrlon kof uh, in sraclik kof uh liki kof uh.”
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.
7 Ouinge God El orala lisrlisr se ac sraclik kof ma oan ye lisrlisr sac liki kof ma oan lucng liki lisrlisr sac. Na orekla oana.
And God made the expanse, and separated the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse.
8 God El pangon lisrlisr sac “Yen engyeng uh.” Ke safla eku sac na lotutang sikme — pa ingan len se akluo.
And God called the expanse Sky. And God saw that it was good. There was evening and there was morning, a second day.
9 Na God El fahk, “Lela kof ye acn engyeng uh in tukeni nu ke sie acn, tuh acn pao uh fah sikyak” — na orekla oana.
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.
10 El pangon acn pao uh “Faclu,” ac kof ma toeni nu sie uh El pangon “Meoa.” Ac God El liye ma El orala tuh na wo.
And God called the dry land Earth, and the gatherings of the waters he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
11 Na El fahk, “Lela faclu in akkapye kain in mah nukewa ac kain in sak nukewa — na sikyak oana.
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.
12 Ouinge faclu akkapyauk kain in sak nukewa, ac God El liye ma El orala tuh na wo.
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.
13 Ke safla eku sac na lotutang sikme — pa ingan len se aktolu.
There was evening and there was morning, a third day.
14 Na God El fahk, “Lela mwe kalem uh in sikyak yen engyeng uh in sraclik len liki fong, ac in akkalemye pacl in mutawauk lun len, yac, ac pacl in akfulat,
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;
15 ac elos fah kalem inkusrao me ac tolak fin faclu” — ac ouinge orekla oana.
and let them be for lights in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth." And it was so.
16 Ouinge God El orala kalem luo ma yohk uh: faht in leumi len, ac malem in leumi fong; El oayapa orala itu uh.
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.
17 El oakiya kalem inge inkusrao in tolak fin faclu,
And God set them in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth,
18 in karingin len ac fong, ac in sraclik kalem liki lohsr. Ac God El liye ma El orala tuh na wo.
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.
19 Ke safla eku sac na lotutang sikme — pa ingan len se akakosr.
There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.
20 Na God El fahk, “Lela inkof uh in nwanala ke kain in ma moul puspis, ac lela yen engyeng uh in sessesla ke won.”
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.
21 Ouinge God El orala ma moul lulap in meoa uh, kain in ma moul nukewa ma muta inkof uh, ac kain in won nukewa. Ac God El liye ma El orala tuh na wo.
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.
22 El akinsewowoyalos nukewa ac fahk nu sin ma moul ma muta inkof uh elos in isus ac nwakla meoa, ac El fahk nu sin won in kapak ac puseni.
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."
23 Ke safla eku sac na lotutang sikme — pa ingan len se aklimekosr.
There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.
24 Na God El fahk, “Lela faclu in oswe kain in ma orakrak nukewa; ma muna ac ma lemnak, yohk ac srik” — na orekla oana.
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.
25 Ouinge God El oralosla nukewa, ac El liye ma El orala tuh na wo.
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.
26 Na God El fahk, “Inge kut ac fah oru mwet uh: elos ac oana kut ac lumahlos ac oana lumasr. Ac fah oasr ku yorolos fin ik, won, ac ma orakrak nukewa, ma muna ac ma lemnak, ma yohk ac srik.”
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.
27 Ouinge God El orala mwet uh, ac oralosla oana lumahl. El oralosla mukul ac mutan,
And God created humankind in his own image. In God's image he created him; male and female he created them.
28 ac akinsewowoyalos, ac fahk, “Kowos in isus fahko in pus, tuh fwilin tulik nutuwos fah fahsrelik nu fin faclu nufon ac leumi ma inge. Nga filikowosi in karingin ma moul nukewa inkof uh, won yen engyeng uh, ac ma orakrak nukewa ma moul fin faclu.”
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."
29 Na God El fahk, “Nga akoela kain in mahsrik nukewa ac kain in fokinsak nukewa kowos in mongo kac,
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.
30 a nu sin ma orakrak nukewa ac nu sin won nukewa nga akoela mah ac sra sak nu selos” — na orekla oana.
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."
31 God El liye ma nukewa ma El orala tuh na wo. Ke safla eku sac na lotutang sikme — pa ingan len se akonkosr.
And God saw everything that he had made, and look, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
