+ Genesis 1 >

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
Fefeu na, Lamatualain naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ lalai no raefafoꞌ a.
2 And the earth was waste and empty, and darkness was on the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
Leleꞌ naa, raefafoꞌ a nda feꞌe dadꞌi sa, ma basaꞌ e feꞌe runggu-ranggaꞌ. Feꞌe akaꞌ a, oeꞌ ma maꞌahatuꞌ a tatana nala e. Lamatualain Dula-dale Na laa-laa sia oeꞌ ata.
3 And God said, Let there be light. And there was light.
Boe ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ nae, “Manggareloꞌ dadꞌi.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, manggareloꞌ a dadꞌi tuteꞌ a.
4 And God saw the light that it was good; and God divided between the light and the darkness.
Ana nita manggareloꞌ a ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa, maloleꞌ. Basa de, Ana tadꞌa manggareloꞌ mia hatuꞌ a, de esa-esaꞌ no fai na.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening, and there was morning — the first day.
Ana babꞌae manggareloꞌ a ‘rereloꞌ’, ma hatuꞌ a, ‘tetembaꞌ’. Naa, fai kaesa na.
6 And God said, Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it be a division between waters and waters.
Basa ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, “Mamana rouꞌ sa dadꞌi, fo tadꞌa oeꞌ a. Naa fo, hambu oeꞌ sia ataꞌ, ma sia raeꞌ boe.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, oeꞌ a banggi neu rua tuteꞌ a.
7 And God made the expanse, and divided between the waters that are under the expanse and the waters that are above the expanse; and it was so.
8 And God called the expanse Heavens. And there was evening, and there was morning — a second day.
Ana babꞌae oeꞌ mana sia ataꞌ a, ‘lalai’. Naa, fai karua na.
9 And God said, Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together to one place, and let the dry [land] appear. And it was so.
Basa ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Oe mana sia raeꞌ a musi naꞌabꞌue neu mamanaꞌ esa, fo hambu rae madꞌa.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, rae madꞌa a dadꞌi tuteꞌ a.
10 And God called the dry [land] Earth, and the gathering together of the waters he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.
Ana babꞌae rae madꞌa a, ‘madꞌa ata’; ma oe mana maꞌabꞌueꞌ a, ‘tasiꞌ’. Ana nita basa naa ra ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa ra, memaꞌ maloleꞌ.
11 And God said, Let the earth cause grass to spring up, herb producing seed, fruit-trees yielding fruit after their kind, the seed of which is in them, on the earth. And it was so.
Boe ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Hau-hau musi mori sia madꞌaꞌ ata. Musi hambu hau mabꞌoaꞌ, madekeꞌ, ma maroo modꞌoꞌ. Naa fo, hau ra esa-esaꞌ mbule-bꞌoa na tungga mata na.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, basa hau ra dadꞌi tuteꞌ a.
12 And the earth brought forth grass, herb producing seed after its kind, and trees yielding fruit, the seed of which is in them, after their kind. And God saw that it was good.
Ma hau naa ra mbule-bꞌoa nara esa-esaꞌ tungga mata na, losa rasofe madꞌaꞌ ata. Ana nita basa naa ra ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa ra, memaꞌ maloleꞌ.
13 And there was evening, and there was morning — a third day.
Naa, fai katelu na.
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens, to divide between the day and the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;
Boe ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Sia ataꞌ musi hambu manggareloꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ fo raronda neu raefafoꞌ ia. Musi hambu mana fee manggareloꞌ neu fai rereloꞌ, ma mana fee manggareloꞌ neu fai tetembaꞌ. Basa naa ra, dadꞌi tatandaꞌ fo bisa reken fai, too, no fula-fai.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, manggareloꞌ ra dadꞌi tuteꞌ a.
15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth. And it was so.
16 And God made the two great lights, the great light to rule the day, and the small light to rule the night, — and the stars.
Ana tao manggarelo monaeꞌ mataꞌ rua. Manggarelo monaeꞌ a naronda rereloꞌ ma manggarelo anadikiꞌ a naronda tetembaꞌ. Ana o tao nduuꞌ ra boe.
17 And God set them in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth,
Ma Ana ator basa naa ra sia lalai, fo raronda neu raefafoꞌ a.
18 and to rule during the day and during the night, and to divide between the light and the darkness. And God saw that it was good.
De ara fee manggareloꞌ neu rereloꞌ ma tetembaꞌ. No taꞌo naa, ara tadꞌa manggareloꞌ mia hatuꞌ a. Ana nita basa naa ra ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa ra, memaꞌ maloleꞌ.
19 And there was evening, and there was morning — a fourth day.
Naa, fai kahaa na.
20 And God said, Let the waters swarm with swarms of living souls, and let fowl fly above the earth in the expanse of the heavens.
Basa ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Banda mataꞌ-mataꞌ musi rasodꞌa sia oeꞌ rala. Ma mbuiꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ musi ratambembele sia raefafoꞌ ata.”
21 And God created the great sea monsters, and every living soul that moves with which the waters swarm, after their kind, and every winged fowl after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
Boe ma Ana naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ basa uꞌu mataꞌ-mataꞌ no banda monaeꞌ mana rasodꞌa sia oeꞌ. Ana o naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ mbuiꞌ mataꞌ-mataꞌ fo ratambembele sia lalai. Ana nita basa naa ra ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa ra, memaꞌ maloleꞌ.
22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply on the earth.
Basa ma Ana olaꞌ fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu basa banda ra nae, “Uꞌu ra musi ramaheta, fo rasofe oeꞌ a sia bee-bꞌee. Ma mbuiꞌ ra o musi ramaheta boe.”
23 And there was evening, and there was morning — a fifth day.
Naa, fai kalima na.
24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth living souls after their kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth, after their kind. And it was so.
Basa ma, Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Banda mataꞌ-mataꞌ musi rasodꞌa sia madꞌaꞌ ata. Musi hambu banda neꞌebꞌoiꞌ, banda fui, ma banda mana nodꞌoꞌ sia rae, esa-esaꞌ no mata na.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, basa se dadꞌi tuteꞌ a. Ana nita basa se ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa ra, memaꞌ maloleꞌ.
25 And God made the beast of the earth after its kind, and the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing of the ground after its kind. And God saw that it was good.
26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heavens, and over the cattle, and over the whole earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth on the earth.
Basa ma Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ fai nae, “Ima fo Ata tao atahori tungga onaꞌ Hita boe. Naa fo, ara tao mataꞌ neu uꞌu ra sia tasi, mbuiꞌ ra sia lalai, banda neꞌeboiꞌ ra, ma basa banda feaꞌ mana masodꞌa sia raefafoꞌ a.”
27 And God created Man in his image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
Boe ma Ana naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ atahori onaꞌ mata ao Na boe. Ana naꞌadadadꞌiꞌ se, touꞌ no inaꞌ.
28 And God blessed them; and God said to them, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the heavens, and over every animal that moveth on the earth.
Ma Ana olaꞌ fee se papala-babꞌanggiꞌ nae, “Hei musi bꞌonggi mimihefu, fo misofe raefafoꞌ ia, ma tao mataꞌ neu e. Au o fee hei koasa fo tao mataꞌ neu uꞌu ra, mbuiꞌ ra, ma basa banda madꞌaꞌ ata ra.
29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb producing seed that is on the whole earth, and every tree in which is the fruit of a tree producing seed: it shall be food for you;
Rena malolole! Au fee hei nanaat mataꞌ-mataꞌ sia raefafoꞌ ia. Au fee hau mabꞌoaꞌ, madekeꞌ, ma maroo modꞌoꞌ ra.
30 and to every animal of the earth, and to every fowl of the heavens, and to everything that creepeth on the earth, in which is a living soul, every green herb for food. And it was so.
Au o fee basa hau mataꞌ-mataꞌ, fo dadꞌi basa banda ra nanaat na. Nanaat soaꞌ neu banda neꞌeboiꞌ, banda fui, banda mana nodꞌoꞌ, ma mbuiꞌ ra.” Ana olaꞌ basa ma, basa nanaat mataꞌ-mataꞌ dadꞌi tuteꞌ a.
31 And God saw everything that he had made, and behold it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning — the sixth day.
Ana nita basa naa ra ma, rala Na namahoꞌo, huu saa fo Eni taoꞌ naa ra, memaꞌ maloleꞌ. Naa, fai kanee na.
