Genesis 2 (JUM)

1Naŋŋä polloŋ ke ŋommañ ke waak'a bilteen ye ḍaŋŋä.Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.

2Aŋ Jooŋ ḍaŋŋä kä naŋŋä wakkä yeeke nïïnnä yaana kä ŋaṭükel ye ti, aŋ yore yïïkkene nïïnnä yaana kä ŋaṭükel ye ti kä nääŋkä yaaka naŋŋe ye muure.And by the seventh day God had finished the work He had been doing; so on that day He rested from all His work.

3Aŋ Jooŋ nïïnnä ŋaṭükel ŋüülkene aŋ naŋŋe ladaŋ, kä yaana yore yïïkkeneeda kä ñuugula yen wakkä muure yaaka naŋŋe ye.Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because on that day He rested from all the work of creation that He had accomplished.

4Yaanni a gin'a näŋŋä ḍoŋe wääna Pïṭo Jooŋ näŋŋee kä polloŋ ke ŋommañ ye.This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made them.

5Aŋ jengä muure mor baati ŋommañ wic, aŋ wakkä garkä batta mor yülü woo, nääŋka Pïṭo Jooŋ batta mor tuucee ïñï ñaal ŋommañ wic ye, kä mänbaan bäwe yaana pïïtï ŋommañ wic ye.Now no shrub of the field had yet appeared on the earth, nor had any plant of the field sprouted, for the LORD God had not yet sent rain upon the earth, and there was no man to cultivate the ground.

6Aŋ ñomuk ku on piik kääjïdï woo ŋommañ jï määtï ŋommañ wiñe muure.But springs welled up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground.

7Aŋ Pïṭo Jooŋ kuññu ŋomgu ŋommañ wic, aŋ naŋŋe a oon, aŋ kütkene umdin wääktäŋ üṇṇü. Aŋ oon üṇṇü.Then the LORD God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed the breath of life into his nostrils, and the man became a living being.

8Aŋ Pïṭo Jooŋ pïïttä jengä garkä nänṭä battä me ogo Adan ñomuk aŋŋi, aŋ oon yaana naŋŋe ye ḍoocce wïca.And the LORD God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, where He placed the man He had formed.

9Aŋ Pïṭo Jooŋ jengä yaaka ŋeraŋ me waŋgen ti aŋ ŋeraŋ ammä ti ye, muure yüülene ñaalok ŋommañ wic, aŋ jaan yaana me iñde üṇṇü ye, cääy ṭeejjük nänṭä garrä, aŋ jaan ŋäjjin ŋerrä ke yiñ cäänna bilti ṭeejjük.Out of the ground the LORD God gave growth to every tree that is pleasing to the eye and good for food. And in the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

10Aŋ ku on wii kääjïdï woo nänṭä battä me ogo Adan määtï nänṭä garrä, aŋ kïïptïdï gïtï wïca aŋ wäätcïdï ääŋken kä ŋan.Now a river flowed out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it branched into four headwaters:

11Yaŋkalaŋ battä me ogo Pecüün, aŋ ike ken kaajit baan mä Hawela jï muure nänṭ'a cääyge tiilgä ye.The name of the first river is the Pishon; it winds through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.

12Aŋ tiilgä yek baan yaanja ŋeraŋ. Aŋ jengä pïlkä yaaka ääcete me woo panḍeyni ye, bilti aŋ cäänna pämkä yaaka gäldïdï ŋeraŋ ye bilti wïca.And the gold of that land is pure, and bdellium and onyx are found there.

13Aŋ yäṇtäŋ wii yaŋkalaŋ ogo Jeyüün, aŋ a ike ken kaajit baan mä Küüc jï muure.The name of the second river is the Gihon; it winds through the whole land of Cush.

14Aŋ yäṇtäŋ wii yaana agene ḍäk ye, battä me ogo Adagiil, aŋ ike ken kaajit Acüür ti kä ñomuk. Aŋ wii yaana wäätcete kä ŋan ye, battä me ogo Puraat.The name of the third river is the Tigris; it runs along the east side of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.

15Aŋ Pïṭo Jooŋ oon koowne aŋ ḍoocce Adan nänṭä garrä ogo ñuugelee aŋ tïïjje.Then the LORD God took the man and placed him in the Garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it.

16Aŋ Pïṭo Jooŋ oon iingene aŋ kiinni ogo, “Jengä yaaka nänṭä garrä jï ye, amä muure,And the LORD God commanded him, “You may eat freely from every tree of the garden,

17aŋ jaan yen ŋäjjin ŋerrä ke yiñ ŋana ïkï ämjädä, naana ïkï bi ämjä ye, ïkï bi tüwü a gïtken.”but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it, you will surely die.”

18Aŋ Pïṭo Jooŋ jaajjin ogo, “Batta ŋeraŋ oon cäwde pare aŋan, näŋgä m'ana ike yüükkütü ti cäwdä ye.”The LORD God also said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make for him a suitable helper.”

19Aŋ Pïṭo Jooŋ kuññu ŋommañ aŋ näŋŋä wakkä luum jïñe muure ke ḍïïrgä polloŋ jïñe. Aŋ äckene oon ookcedeeda bi äkke ogoo, aŋ wakkä yaaka a üdïn ye muure yaana bärkänä oon ye, i daa wäätï a yäṇtonḍe.And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and He brought them to the man to see what he would name each one. And whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name.

20Aŋ ḍigärgä muure bääri oon kä yäṇtäŋgenen, ke ḍïïrgä polloŋ jïñe ke wakkä luum jïñe muure. Aŋ ike kä ḍoŋe batta käñon yaana äälene kä ike yüükkütü ti kä cäwdä ye.The man gave names to all the livestock, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam no suitable helper was found.

21Aŋ Pïṭo Jooŋ oon iññe waŋgin nïïnkä kä pek, aŋ wääna oodene daa ye, ääcin woo ŋiiranḍe yaŋkalaŋ kä keelok aŋ nänṭä yeene paatte waŋ.So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep, and while he slept, He took one of the man’s ribs and closed up the area with flesh.

22Aŋ Pïṭo Jooŋ näŋŋä iiŋ kä ŋiiran yaana äbe woo oon gunne ti ye, aŋ äckene oon.And from the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man, He made a woman and brought her to him.

23Aŋ oon jaajjin ogo, “Yaanni tiññaŋ a äwnä yen äwgi aŋ a yäŋŋä yen yäŋgi. Aŋ ike bi battä me ogo, ‘iiŋ’ nääŋka äbene daa me woo ‘oon’ ti ye.”And the man said: “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’ for out of man she was taken.”

24Aŋ ina ken oon wäyen ke meen daleeda buwin aŋ yore cooṭeeda ti iiŋe ti aŋ wäätene agene gaan keellä yaanna.For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.

25Aŋ ñomuk ku on oon ke iiŋe muuṭuk yoken ladaŋ, aŋ yoken batta a lodgu.And the man and his wife were both naked, and they were not ashamed.
