Бытие 1
1 В начале сотвори Бог небо и землю.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
2 Земля же бе невидима и неустроена, и тма верху бездны, и Дух Божий ношашеся верху воды.
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.
3 И рече Бог: да будет свет. И бысть свет.
And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
4 И виде Бог свет, яко добро, и разлучи Бог между светом и между тмою.

And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. There was evening and there was morning, one day.
6 И рече Бог: да будет твердь посреде воды, и да будет разлучающи посреде воды и воды. И бысть тако.
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 И сотвори Бог твердь, и разлучи Бог между водою, яже бе под твердию, и между водою, яже бе над твердию.
And God made the expanse, and separated the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse.

And God called the expanse Sky. And God saw that it was good. There was evening and there was morning, a second day.
9 И рече Бог: да соберется вода, яже под небесем, в собрание едино, и да явится суша. И бысть тако. И собрася вода, яже под небесем, в собрания своя, и явися суша.
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 И нарече Бог сушу землю, и собрания вод нарече моря. И виде Бог, яко добро.
And God called the dry land Earth, and the gatherings of the waters he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.

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.

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 и да будут в просвещение на тверди небесней, яко светити по земли. И бысть тако.
and let them be for lights in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth." And it was so.
16 И сотвори Бог два светила великая: светило великое в начала дне, и светило меншее в начала нощи, и звезды:
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 и положи я Бог на тверди небесней, яко светити на землю,
And God set them in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth,
18 и владети днем и нощию, и разлучати между светом и между тмою. И виде Бог, яко добро.

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."

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 И сотвори Бог человека, по образу Божию сотвори его: мужа и жену сотвори их.
And God created humankind in his own image. In God's image he created him; male and female he created them.
28 И благослови их Бог, глаголя: раститеся и множитеся, и наполните землю, и господствуйте ею, и обладайте рыбами морскими, (и зверми) и птицами небесными, и всеми скотами, и всею землею, и всеми гадами пресмыкающимися по земли.
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 И рече Бог: се, дах вам всякую траву семенную сеющую семя, еже есть верху земли всея: и всякое древо, еже имать в себе плод семене семеннаго, вам будет в снедь:
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.

And God saw everything that he had made, and look, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
