1Naʻe pehē ʻa hono ngaohi ʻo ʻosi ʻae langi mo e fonua, mo hona nāunau kotoa pē.
1The heavens, the earth, and all their vast array were finished.
2Pea ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho kuo fakaʻosi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻa ʻene ngāue ʻaia naʻa ne fai; pea naʻe tutuku ia ʻi hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho, mei heʻene ngāue kotoa pē ʻaia naʻa ne fai.
2On the seventh day God finished his work which he had done; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had done.
3Pea naʻe tāpuaki ʻe he ʻOtua ʻa hono fitu ʻoe ʻaho, mo ne fakatapui ia: koeʻuhi ko ia ia naʻa ne tutuku ai mei heʻene ngāue kotoa pē, ʻaia naʻe fakatupu mo ngaohi ʻe he ʻOtua.
3God blessed the seventh day, and made it holy, because he rested in it from all his work of creation which he had done.
4¶ Ko e tala fakahohoko eni ki he ngaohi ʻoe langi mo māmani, ʻi he ʻaho ʻaia naʻe fakatupu ai ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻa māmani pea mo e langi,
4This is the history of the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens.
5Mo e ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoe fonua ʻi he teʻeki ke tuʻu ia ʻi he kelekele, mo e ʻakau iiki kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, ʻi he teʻeki ai ke tupu: he naʻe teʻeki ke tuku ʻe he ʻOtua ha ʻuha ki he kelekele, pea naʻe ʻikai ha tangata ke ngoueʻi ʻae kelekele.
5No plant of the field was yet on the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprung up; for the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the earth. There was not a man to till the ground,
6Ka naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae vaivao mei he fonua, ke fakaviviku ʻae funga kelekele kotoa pē.
6but a mist went up from the earth, and watered the whole surface of the ground.
7Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻae tangata mei he efu ʻoe kelekele, pea ne mānava ki hono avaʻi ihu ʻae mānava ʻoe moʻui; pea hoko ʻae tangata ko e laumālie moʻui.
7The LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
8¶ Pea naʻe tō ʻae ngoue ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ki he potu hahake ʻi ʻIteni; pea ne tuku ki ai ʻae tangata ʻaia naʻa ne ngaohi.
8The LORD God planted a garden eastward, in Eden, and there he put the man whom he had formed.
9Pea naʻe fakatupu ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua mei he kelekele ʻae ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoku matamatalelei, pea lelei ki he kai; mo e ʻakau ʻoe moʻui foki ʻi he loto ngoue, pea mo e ʻakau ʻoe ʻilo ʻoe lelei mo e kovi.
9Out of the ground the LORD God made every tree to grow that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food, including the tree of life in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10Pea naʻe ʻalu atu ʻae vaitafe ʻi ʻIteni ke fakaviviku ʻae ngoue; pea ne mavahevahe ia mei ai ʻi he mangaʻivai ʻe fā.
10A river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from there it was parted, and became the source of four rivers.
11Ko e hingoa ʻoe ʻuluaki ko Pisoni: ko ia ia ʻoku takatakai ʻae fonua kotoa ko Havila, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae koula;
11The name of the first is Pishon: it flows through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold;
12Pea ʻoku lelei ʻae koula ʻoe fonua ko ia pea ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae mataʻitofe, mo e maka ko e onike.
12and the gold of that land is good. Bdellium and onyx stone are also there.
13Pea ko e hingoa ʻo hono ua ʻoe vaitafe ko Kihoni: ko ia ia ʻoku takatakai ʻae fonua kotoa ko Kusi.
13The name of the second river is Gihon. It is the same river that flows through the whole land of Cush.
14Pea ko e hingoa ʻo hono tolu ʻoe vaitafe ko Hitikeli: ko ia ia ʻoku tafe atu ki he hahake ʻo ʻAsilia. Pea ko hono fā ʻoe vaitafe ko ʻIufaletesi.
14The name of the third river is Hiddekel. This is the one which flows in front of Assyria. The fourth river is the Euphrates.
15Pea naʻe ʻave ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻae tangata ʻone tuku ia ki he ngoue ko ʻIteni, ke tauhi mo leʻo ki ai.
15The LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it.
16Pea naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ki he tangata, ʻo pehē, “ʻE ngofua ʻa hoʻo kai mei he ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoe ngoue,
16The LORD God commanded the man, saying, “You may freely eat of every tree of the garden;
17Ka ko e ʻakau ʻoe ʻilo ʻoe lelei mo e kovi, ʻe ʻikai te ke kai mei ai: he ko e ʻaho ko ia te ke kai ai, ko e moʻoni te ke mate.”
17but you shall not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely die.”
18¶ Pea naʻe folofola ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, “ʻOku ʻikai lelei ke tokotaha pe ʻae tangata: te u ngaohi kiate ia ha tokoni ʻoku taau mo ia.”
18The LORD God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a helper comparable to him.”
19Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, mei he kelekele ʻae fanga manu kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, mo e manu kotoa pē ʻoe ʻatā; pea ne ʻomi ia kia ʻAtama, ke vakai pe ko e hā te ne ui ʻakinautolu: pea ʻilonga ʻae hingoa naʻe ai ʻe ʻAtama ki he meʻa moʻui kotoa pē, ko hono hingoa ia.
19Out of the ground the LORD God formed every animal of the field, and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them. Whatever the man called every living creature became its name.
20Pea naʻe fakahingoa ʻe ʻAtama ʻae fanga manu lalahi kotoa pē, mo e fanga manupuna ʻoe ʻatā, mo e fanga manu kotoa pē ʻoe vao; ka naʻe ʻikai ke ʻilo kia ʻAtama ha tokoni naʻe taau mo ia.
20The man gave names to all livestock, and to the birds of the sky, and to every animal of the field; but for man there was not found a helper comparable to him.
21Pea naʻe tuku ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻae mohe maʻu kia ʻAtama, pea naʻa ne mohe: pea naʻa ne toʻo hono hui vakavaka ʻe taha, pea naʻe toe fakamaʻopoʻopo ʻa hono kakano.
21The LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep. As the man slept, he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.
22Pea ko e hui vakavaka ʻaia naʻe toʻo ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua mei he tangata, naʻa ne ngaohi mei ai ʻae fefine, pea ʻomi ia ki he tangata.
22The LORD God made a woman from the rib which he had taken from the man, and brought her to the man.
23Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻAtama, “Ko e hui eni ʻo hoku ngaahi hui, mo e kakano ʻo hoku kakano: ʻe ui ia ‘ko e Fefine,’ koeʻuhi naʻe toʻo ia mei he Tangata.”
23The man said, “This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called ‘woman,’ because she was taken out of Man.”
24Ko ia ʻe tukuange ai ʻe he tangata ʻa ʻene tamai mo ʻene faʻē, kae pikitai ki hono uaifi: pea te na kakano taha pe.
24Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh.
25Pea naʻa na fakatou telefua, ʻae tangata mo hono uaifi, pea naʻe ʻikai te na mā ai.
25The man and his wife were both naked, and they were not ashamed.
