Genesis 2 (TDX)

1Aa le nifonitse ty tane toy naho o likerañeo naho ty fitozantoza’ iareo.Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.

2Nifoniren’ Añahare ami’ty andro faha-fito i fitoloña’ey, le nitroatse ami’ty andro faha-fito amo hene tolon-draha nanoe’eo;And by the seventh day God had finished the work He had been doing; so on that day He rested from all His work.

3Le nitahien’ Añahare ty andro faha-fito vaho nimasiñe’e, amy te ama’e ro nitroara’e amy ze nitsenèn’ Añahare iaby, hamokara’e ka.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.

4Inay ty fanoñonañe o likerañeo naho ty tane toy amy fañamboarañe iareoy. Tamy sa namboare’ Iehovà Andriañahare ty tane toy naho o likerañeoyThis is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made them.

5naho mbe tsy tan-tane ao ze hataen-kivoke naho taolo’ ty nitiria’ ze ahetse am-patrañe ao, vaho mboe tsy nampahavie’ Iehovà Andriañahare orañe ty tane, fa tsy teo ty ondaty hahava i taney;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.

6fe niboahan-jono ty tane ze nahatondra-drano ty ambone’ ty tane toy iaby;But springs welled up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground.

7le namboare’ Iehovà Andrianañahare ami’ty lembon-tane t’indaty naho nikofoha’e tion-kaveloñe o lalam-piantsona’eo vaho ninjare fañova veloñe indatiy.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.

8Le nañalahala goloboñe maniñanañe e Edene ao t’Iehovà Andrianañahare, vaho navotra’e ao indaty namboare’ey.And the LORD God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, where He placed the man He had formed.

9Le nampitirie’ Iehovà Andrianañahare boak’ an-tane ao ze karazan-katae soa am-pivazohoañe naho mafiry am-pikamañe, le añivo’ i goloboñey ao ty hataen-kaveloñe naho ty hataem-paharendrehañe ty soa naho ty raty.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.

10Nikavavàke boak’ Edene ao ty oñe handeñe i goloboñey, ie boak’ ao le nivaky efatse.Now a river flowed out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it branched into four headwaters:

11Pisone ty añara’ ty valoha’e, mañariari’ i hene tane’ Kavilày, ie amam-bolamena;The name of the first river is the Pishon; it winds through the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.

12soa ty volamena’ i taney; añe ty bedolake naho ty vato antsetra.And the gold of that land is pure, and bdellium and onyx are found there.

13Gihone ty añara’ i oñe faharoe mitsikarioke era’ i tane Kosiy.The name of the second river is the Gihon; it winds through the whole land of Cush.

14Hidiklà ty añara’ i fahateloy ze miary atiñana’ i Asore; vaho i Perate t’y oñe fah’efatse.The name of the third river is the Tigris; it runs along the east side of Assyria. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.

15Navotra’ Iehovà Andrianañahare an-Golobo’ i Edene ao indatiy hañalahala naho hañambeñ’ aze.Then the LORD God took the man and placed him in the Garden of Eden to cultivate and keep it.

16Le hoe ty linili’ Iehovà Andrianañahare am’indatiy, Azo’o ikamañe ze hene hatae amy goloboñey ao;And the LORD God commanded him, “You may eat freely from every tree of the garden,

17fe ko ikamà’o ty hataem-paharendrehañe ty soa naho ty raty, fa toe hivetrake irehe ami’ty andro ikama’o aze.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.”

18Le hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare, Tsy mahasoa indatiy te ho tokañe, hamboarako mpañimba mañeva.The LORD God also said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make for him a suitable helper.”

19Aa le boak’ amo taneo ty namboare’ Iehovà Andrianañahare ze kila bibin-kivoke, naho ze hene voron-tioke vaho nendese’e am’ indatiy hivazoho ze sindre ho tokava’ indatiy aze; aa le ze nitokava’ indatiy ty raha veloñe, le izay ty añara’e.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.

20Nimea’ indatiy añarañe ze hene hare naho voron-tioke, vaho ze biby am-patrañe añe iaby; fa naho indatiy, tsy nioniñe ty mpañolotse mañeva aze.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.

21Aa le nampifetsaha’ Iehovà Andrianañahare am’indatiy ty rotse miheotse, naho ie nirotse le nafaha’e ty pa’e raike vaho nakite’e amy toe’ey ty nofotse.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.

22Nitsene ampela t’Iehovà Andrianañahare amy rinambe’e añ’ila’ indatiy vaho nasese’e am’indatiy.And from the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man, He made a woman and brought her to him.

23Le hoe indatiy, Itoy henaneo ty taola’ o taolakoo naho ty nofo’ o nofokoo; le hatao Rakemba re amy te lahilahy ro nañakarañe aze.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.”

24Aa le mienga ty rae’e naho i rene’e t’indaty le mipitek’ ami’ty vali’e vaho nofotse raike iereo.For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.

25Ie amy zay, songa nitanjaka indatiy naho i vali’ey fe tsy nimeñatse.And the man and his wife were both naked, and they were not ashamed.
