¹Alguses lõi Jumal taeva ja maa.

¹In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

²Maa oli tühi ja paljas ja pimedus oli sügavuse peal ja Jumala Vaim hõljus vete kohal.

²And 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.

³Ja Jumal ütles: 'Saagu valgus!' Ja valgus sai.

³And God said, Let there be light. And there was light.

⁴Ja Jumal nägi, et valgus oli hea, ja Jumal lahutas valguse pimedusest.

⁴And God saw the light that it was good; and God divided between the light and the darkness.

⁵Ja Jumal nimetas valguse päevaks ja pimeduse ta nimetas ööks. Siis sai õhtu ja sai hommik - esimene päev.

⁵And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening, and there was morning -- the first day.

⁶Ja Jumal ütles: 'Saagu laotus vete vahele ja see lahutagu veed vetest!'

⁶And God said, Let there be an expanse in the midst of the waters, and let it be a division between waters and waters.

⁷Ja nõnda sündis: Jumal tegi laotuse ja lahutas veed, mis olid laotuse all, vetest, mis olid laotuse peal.

⁷And 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.

⁸Ja Jumal nimetas laotuse taevaks. Siis sai õhtu ja sai hommik - teine päev.

⁸And God called the expanse Heavens. And there was evening, and there was morning -- a second day.

⁹Ja Jumal ütles: 'Veed kogunegu taeva all ühte paika, et kuiva näha oleks!' Ja nõnda sündis.

⁹And God said, Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together to one place, and let the dry [land] appear. And it was so.

¹⁰Ja Jumal nimetas kuiva pinna maaks ja veekogu ta nimetas mereks. Ja Jumal nägi, et see oli hea.

¹⁰And God called the dry [land] Earth, and the gathering together of the waters he called Seas. And God saw that it was good.

¹¹Ja Jumal ütles: 'Maast tärgaku haljas rohi, seemet kandvad taimed, viljapuud, mille viljas on nende seeme, nende liikide järgi maa peale!' Ja nõnda sündis:

¹¹And 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.

¹²maa laskis võrsuda haljast rohtu, seemet kandvaid taimi nende liikide järgi, ja viljapuid, mille viljas on nende seeme, nende liikide järgi. Ja Jumal nägi, et see oli hea.

¹²And 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.

¹³Siis sai õhtu ja sai hommik - kolmas päev.

¹³And there was evening, and there was morning -- a third day.

¹⁴Ja Jumal ütles: 'Saagu valgused taevalaotusse eraldama päeva ööst! Tähistagu need seatud aegu, päevi ja aastaid,

¹⁴And 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;

¹⁵olgu nad valgusteks taevalaotuses, valgustuseks maale!' Ja nõnda sündis:

¹⁵and let them be for lights in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth. And it was so.

¹⁶Jumal tegi kaks suurt valgust: suurema valguse valitsema päeval ja väiksema valguse valitsema öösel, ning tähed.

¹⁶And God made the two great lights, the great light to rule the day, and the small light to rule the night, -- and the stars.

¹⁷Ja Jumal pani need taevalaotusse, et nad valgustaksid maad

¹⁷And God set them in the expanse of the heavens, to give light on the earth,

¹⁸ja valitseksid päeval ja öösel ja eraldaksid valguse pimedusest. Ja Jumal nägi, et see oli hea.

¹⁸and 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.

¹⁹Siis sai õhtu ja sai hommik - neljas päev.

¹⁹And there was evening, and there was morning -- a fourth day.

²⁰Ja Jumal ütles: 'Vesi kihagu elavaist olendeist, ja maa peal lennaku linnud taevalaotuse poole!'

²⁰And God said, Let the waters swarm with swarms of living souls, and let fowl fly above the earth in the expanse of the heavens.

²¹Ja Jumal lõi suured mereloomad ja kõiksugu elavad olendid, kellest vesi kihab, nende liikide järgi, ja kõiksugu tiibadega linnud nende liikide järgi. Ja Jumal nägi, et see oli hea.

²¹And 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.

²²Ja Jumal õnnistas neid ja ütles: 'Olge viljakad ja teid saagu palju, täitke mere vesi, ja lindusid saagu palju maa peale!'

²²And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply on the earth.

²³Siis sai õhtu ja sai hommik - viies päev.

²³And there was evening, and there was morning -- a fifth day.

²⁴Ja Jumal ütles: 'Maa toogu esile elavad olendid nende liikide järgi, kariloomad ja roomajad ja metsloomad nende liikide järgi!' Ja nõnda sündis:

²⁴And 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.

²⁵Jumal tegi metsloomad nende liikide järgi, ja kariloomad nende liikide järgi, ja kõik roomajad maa peal nende liikide järgi. Ja Jumal nägi, et see oli hea.

²⁵And 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.

²⁶Ja Jumal ütles: 'Tehkem inimesed oma näo järgi, meie sarnaseks, et nad valitseksid kalade üle meres, lindude üle taeva all, loomade üle ja kogu maa üle ja kõigi roomajate üle, kes maa peal roomavad!'

²⁶And 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.

²⁷Ja Jumal lõi inimese oma näo järgi, Jumala näo järgi lõi ta tema, ta lõi tema meheks ja naiseks.

²⁷And God created Man in his image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

²⁸Ja Jumal õnnistas neid, ja Jumal ütles neile: 'Olge viljakad ja teid saagu palju, täitke maa ja alistage see enestele; ja valitsege kalade üle meres, lindude üle taeva all ja kõigi loomade üle, kes maa peal liiguvad!'

²⁸And 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.

²⁹Ja Jumal ütles: 'Vaata, mina annan teile kõik seemet kandvad taimed kogu maal, ja kõik puud, mis kannavad vilja, milles on nende seeme; need olgu teile roaks!

²⁹And 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;

³⁰Ja kõigile loomadele maa peal ja kõigile lindudele taeva all ja kõigile roomajaile maa peal, kelles on elav hing, annan ma kõiksugu haljast rohtu toiduks.' Ja nõnda sündis.

³⁰and 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.

³¹Ja Jumal vaatas kõike, mis ta oli teinud, ja vaata, see oli väga hea. Siis sai õhtu ja sai hommik - kuues päev.

³¹And God saw everything that he had made, and behold it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning -- the sixth day.
