Yaratılış 2

¹Böylece gök, yer ve onların bütün düzeni tamamlandı.

²Ve Tanrı yaptığı işleri altıncı günde tamamladı ve yaptığı bütün işlerden yedinci günde dinlendi.

³Ve Tanrı yedinci günü kutsadı ve onu kutsal kıldı; çünkü Tanrı'nın yapmaya giriştiği bütün işlerinden o günde dinlendi.

⁴Gök ve yer var edildiğinde, onların kökeninin kitabı budur; Rab Tanrı'nın göğü ve yeri yaptığı günde,

⁵yeryüzünde henüz kırın hiçbir yeşilliği yokken ve kırın hiçbir otu henüz filizlenmemişken; çünkü Tanrı yeryüzüne yağmur yağdırmamıştı ve toprağı işleyecek insan yoktu.

⁶Ancak yerden bir pınar yükseliyor ve toprağın bütün yüzeyini suluyordu.

⁷Ve Tanrı insanı topraktan bir toz olarak şekillendirdi, onun yüzüne yaşam soluğunu üfledi ve insan yaşayan bir can oldu.

⁸Ve Tanrı doğuda, Edem'de bir cennet dikti ve şekillendirdiği insanı oraya koydu.

⁹Ve Tanrı topraktan görünüşü güzel, yemesi iyi olan her ağacı, cennetin ortasında yaşam ağacını ve iyinin ve kötünün bilinebilir olanını bilme ağacını da yetiştirdi.

¹⁰Cenneti sulamak için Edem'den bir nehir çıkıyordu; oradan bölünerek dört ana kaynağa ayrılıyordu.

¹¹Birincisinin adı Fison'dur; altının bulunduğu yer olan bütün Euilat ülkesini çevreleyen budur.

¹²O ülkenin altını iyidir; orada yakut ve yeşil taş da vardır.

¹³İkinci nehrin adı Geon'dur; bütün Etiyopya ülkesini çevreleyen budur.

¹⁴Üçüncü nehir Dicle'dir; Asurluların karşısından akan budur. Dördüncü nehir ise Fırat'tır.

¹⁵Ve Rab Tanrı şekillendirdiği insanı aldı ve onu işlesin ve korusun diye hazzın cennetine koydu.

¹⁶Ve Rab Tanrı Adem'e buyurup şöyle dedi: "Cennetteki her ağaçtan dilediğin gibi yiyebilirsin,

¹⁷ama iyiyi ve kötüyü bilme ağacından yemeyeceksiniz; çünkü ondan yediğiniz gün ölümle öleceksiniz."

¹⁸Ve Rab Tanrı, "İnsanın yalnız olması iyi değil" dedi, "Ona uygun bir yardımcı yapalım."

¹⁹Ve Tanrı topraktan kırın bütün yaban hayvanlarını ve göğün bütün kuşlarını da şekillendirdi ve onlara ne ad vereceğini görmek için Adem'e getirdi; Adem yaşayan her bir cana ne ad verdiyse, onun adı o oldu.

²⁰Böylece Adem bütün evcil hayvanlara, göğün kuşlarına ve kırın bütün yaban hayvanlarına adlar koydu; ama Adem için kendisine denk bir yardımcı bulunamadı.

²¹Ve Tanrı Adem'in üzerine bir trans hali verdi ve o uyudu; onun kaburgalarından birini alıp yerini etle doldurdu.

²²Ve Tanrı Adem'den aldığı kaburgadan bir kadın inşa etti ve onu Adem'e getirdi.

²³Ve Adem dedi ki: "İşte bu şimdi kemiklerimden kemik, etimden ettir; ona 'kadın' denecek, çünkü o kendi erkeğinden alındı."

²⁴Bu yüzden insan babasını ve annesini bırakacak, karısına bağlanacak ve ikisi tek bir beden olacaklar.

²⁵Ve her ikisi de çıplaktı, hem Adem hem de karısı, ve utanmıyorlardı.

¹ΚΑΙ συνετελέσθησαν ὁ οὐρανὸς καὶ ἡ γῆ καὶ πᾶς ὁ κόσμος αὐτῶν.

²καὶ συνετέλεσεν ὁ Θεὸς ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἕκτῃ τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ, ἃ ἐποίησε, καὶ κατέπαυσε τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμῃ ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν ἔργων αὐτοῦ, ὧν ἐποίησε.

³καὶ εὐλόγησεν ὁ Θεὸς τὴν ἡμέραν τὴν ἑβδόμην καὶ ἡγίασεν αὐτήν· ὅτι ἐν αὐτῇ κατέπαυσεν ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν ἔργων αὐτοῦ, ὧν ἤρξατο ὁ Θεὸς ποιῆσαι.

⁴Αὕτη ἡ βίβλος γενέσεως οὐρανοῦ καὶ γῆς, ὅτε ἐγένετο· ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ ἐποίησε Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν

⁵καὶ πᾶν χλωρὸν ἀγροῦ πρὸ τοῦ γενέσθαι ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ πάντα χόρτον ἀγροῦ πρὸ τοῦ ἀνατεῖλαι· οὐ γὰρ ἔβρεξεν ὁ Θεὸς ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, καὶ ἄνθρωπος οὐκ ἦν ἐργάζεσθαι αὐτήν·

⁶πηγὴ δὲ ἀνέβαινεν ἐκ τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐπότιζε πᾶν τὸ πρόσωπον τῆς γῆς.

⁷καὶ ἔπλασεν ὁ Θεὸς τὸν ἄνθρωπον, χοῦν ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἐνεφύσησεν εἰς τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ πνοὴν ζωῆς, καὶ ἐγένετο ὁ ἄνθρωπος εἰς ψυχὴν ζῶσαν.

⁸Καὶ ἐφύτευσεν ὁ Θεὸς παράδεισον ἐν ᾿Εδὲμ κατὰ ἀνατολὰς καὶ ἔθετο ἐκεῖ τὸν ἄνθρωπον, ὃν ἔπλασε.

⁹καὶ ἐξανέτειλεν ὁ Θεὸς ἔτι ἐκ τῆς γῆς πᾶν ξύλον ὡραῖον εἰς ὅρασιν καὶ καλὸν εἰς βρῶσιν καὶ τὸ ξύλον τῆς ζωῆς ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ παραδείσου καὶ τὸ ξύλον τοῦ εἰδέναι γνωστὸν καλοῦ καὶ πονηροῦ.

¹⁰ποταμὸς δὲ ἐκπορεύεται ἐξ ᾿Εδὲμ ποτίζειν τὸν παράδεισον· ἐκεῖθεν ἀφορίζεται εἰς τέσσαρας ἀρχάς.

¹¹ὄνομα τῷ ἑνὶ Φισῶν· οὗτος ὁ κυκλῶν πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν Εὐιλάτ, ἐκεῖ οὗ ἐστι τὸ χρυσίον·

¹²τὸ δὲ χρυσίον τῆς γῆς ἐκείνης καλόν· καὶ ἐκεῖ ἐστιν ὁ ἄνθραξ καὶ ὁ λίθος ὁ πράσινος.

¹³καὶ ὄνομα τῷ ποταμῷ τῷ δευτέρῳ Γεῶν· οὗτος ὁ κυκλῶν πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν Αἰθιοπίας.

¹⁴καὶ ὁ ποταμὸς ὁ τρίτος Τίγρις· οὗτος ὁ προπορευόμενος κατέναντι ᾿Ασσυρίων. ὁ δὲ ποταμὸς ὁ τέταρτος Εὐφράτης.

¹⁵Καὶ ἔλαβε Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς τὸν ἄνθρωπον, ὃν ἔπλασε, καὶ ἔθετο αὐτὸν ἐν τῷ παραδείσῳ τῆς τρυφῆς, ἐργάζεσθαι αὐτὸν καὶ φυλάσσειν.

¹⁶καὶ ἐνετείλατο Κύριος ὁ Θεὸς τῷ ᾿Αδὰμ λέγων· ἀπὸ παντὸς ξύλου τοῦ ἐν τῷ παραδείσῳ βρώσει φαγῇ,

¹⁷ἀπὸ δὲ τοῦ ξύλου τοῦ γινώσκειν καλὸν καὶ πονηρόν, οὐ φάγεσθε ἀπ᾿ αὐτοῦ· ᾗ δ᾿ ἂν ἡμέρᾳ φάγητε ἀπ᾿ αὐτοῦ, θανάτῳ ἀποθανεῖσθε.

¹⁸Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος ὁ Θεός· οὐ καλὸν εἶναι τὸν ἄνθρωπον μόνον· ποιήσωμεν αὐτῷ βοηθὸν κατ᾿ αὐτόν.

¹⁹καὶ ἔπλασεν ὁ Θεὸς ἔτι ἐκ τῆς γῆς πάντα τὰ θηρία τοῦ ἀγροῦ καὶ πάντα τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἤγαγεν αὐτὰ πρὸς τὸν ᾿Αδάμ, ἰδεῖν τί καλέσει αὐτά. καὶ πᾶν ὃ ἐὰν ἐκάλεσεν αὐτὸ ᾿Αδὰμ ψυχὴν ζῶσαν, τοῦτο ὄνομα αὐτῷ.

²⁰καὶ ἐκάλεσεν ᾿Αδὰμ ὀνόματα πᾶσι τοῖς κτήνεσι καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς πετεινοῖς τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς θηρίοις τοῦ ἀγροῦ· τῷ δὲ ᾿Αδὰμ οὐχ εὑρέθη βοηθὸς ὅμοιος αὐτῷ.

²¹καὶ ἐπέβαλεν ὁ Θεὸς ἔκστασιν ἐπὶ τὸν ᾿Αδάμ, καὶ ὕπνωσε· καὶ ἔλαβε μίαν τῶν πλευρῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀνεπλήρωσε σάρκα ἀντ᾿ αὐτῆς.

²²καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν ὁ Θεὸς τὴν πλευράν, ἣν ἔλαβεν ἀπὸ τοῦ ᾿Αδάμ, εἰς γυναῖκα καὶ ἤγαγεν αὐτὴν πρὸς τὸν ᾿Αδάμ.

²³καὶ εἶπεν ᾿Αδάμ· τοῦτο νῦν ὀστοῦν ἐκ τῶν ὀστέων μου καὶ σὰρξ ἐκ τῆς σαρκός μου· αὕτη κληθήσεται γυνή, ὅτι ἐκ τοῦ ἀνδρὸς αὐτῆς ἐλήφθη αὕτη·

²⁴ἕνεκεν τούτου καταλείψει ἄνθρωπος τὸν πατέρα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὴν μητέρα καὶ προσκολληθήσεται πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἔσονται οἱ δύο εἰς σάρκα μίαν.

²⁵καὶ ἦσαν οἱ δύο γυμνοί, ὅ τε ᾿Αδὰμ καὶ ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐκ ᾐσχύνοντο.

¹AND the heavens and the earth were finished, and the whole world of them.

²And God finished on the sixth day his works which he made, and he ceased on the seventh day from all his works which he made.

³And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it he ceased from all his works which God began to do.

⁴This [is] the book of the generation of heaven and earth, when they were made, in the day in which the Lord God made the heaven and the earth,

⁵and every herb of the field before it was on the earth, and all the grass of the field before it sprang up, for God had not rained on the earth, and there was not a man to cultivate it.

⁶But there rose a fountain out of the earth, and watered the whole face of the earth.

⁷And God formed the man [of] dust of the earth, and breathed upon his face the breath of life, and the man became a living soul.

⁸And God planted a garden eastward in Edem, and placed there the man whom he had formed.

⁹And God made to spring up also out of the earth every tree beautiful to the eye and good for food, and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of learning the knowledge of good and evil.

¹⁰And a river proceeds out of Edem to water the garden, thence it divides itself into four heads.

¹¹The name of the one, Phison, this it is which encircles the whole land of Evilat, where there is gold.

¹²And the gold of that land is good, there also is carbuncle and emerald.

¹³And the name of the second river is Geon, this it is which encircles the whole land of Ethiopia.

¹⁴And the third river is Tigris, this is that which flows forth over against the Assyrians. And the fourth river is Euphrates.

¹⁵And the Lord God took the man whom he had formed, and placed him in the garden of Delight, to cultivate and keep it.

¹⁶And the Lord God gave a charge to Adam, saying, Of every tree which is in the garden thou mayest freely eat,

¹⁷but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil-- of it ye shall not eat, but in whatsoever day ye eat of it, ye shall surely die.

¹⁸And the Lord God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone, let us make for him a help suitable to him.

¹⁹And God formed yet farther out of the earth all the wild beasts of the field, and all the birds of the sky, and he brought them to Adam, to see what he would call them, and whatever Adam called any living creature, that was the name of it.

²⁰And Adam gave names to all the cattle and to all the birds of the sky, and to all the wild beasts of the field, but for Adam there was not found a help like to himself.

²¹And God brought a trance upon Adam, and he slept, and he took one of his ribs, and filled up the flesh instead thereof.

²²And God formed the rib which he took from Adam into a woman, and brought her to Adam.

²³And Adam said, This now is bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called woman, because she was taken out of her husband.

²⁴Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother and shall cleave to his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.

²⁵And the two were naked, both Adam and his wife, and were not ashamed.
