1Başlangıçta Tanrı göğü ve yeri yarattı.2Yer boştu, yeryüzü şekilleri yoktu; engin karanlıklarla kaplıydı. Tanrı'nın Ruhu suların üzerinde dalgalanıyordu.3Tanrı, ‹‹Işık olsun›› diye buyurdu ve ışık oldu.4Tanrı ışığın iyi olduğunu gördü ve onu karanlıktan ayırdı.5Işığa ‹‹Gündüz››, karanlığa ‹‹Gece›› adını verdi. Akşam oldu, sabah oldu ve ilk gün oluştu.6Tanrı, ‹‹Suların ortasında bir kubbe olsun, suları birbirinden ayırsın›› diye buyurdu.7Ve öyle oldu. Tanrı gökkubbeyi yarattı. Kubbenin altındaki suları üstündeki sulardan ayırdı.8Kubbeye ‹‹Gök›› adını verdi. Akşam oldu, sabah oldu ve ikinci gün oluştu.9Tanrı, ‹‹Göğün altındaki sular bir yere toplansın, kuru toprak görünsün›› diye buyurdu ve öyle oldu.10Kuru alana ‹‹Kara››, toplanan sulara ‹‹Deniz›› adını verdi. Tanrı bunun iyi olduğunu gördü.11Tanrı, ‹‹Yeryüzü bitkiler, tohum veren otlar, türüne göre tohumu meyvesinde bulunan meyve ağaçları üretsin›› diye buyurdu ve öyle oldu.12Yeryüzü bitkiler, türüne göre tohum veren otlar, tohumu meyvesinde bulunan meyve ağaçları yetiştirdi. Tanrı bunun iyi olduğunu gördü.13Akşam oldu, sabah oldu ve üçüncü gün oluştu.14Tanrı şöyle buyurdu: ‹‹Gökkubbede gündüzü geceden ayıracak, yeryüzünü aydınlatacak ışıklar olsun. Belirtileri, mevsimleri, günleri, yılları göstersin.›› Ve öyle oldu.16Tanrı büyüğü gündüze, küçüğü geceye egemen olacak iki büyük ışığı ve yıldızları yarattı.17Yeryüzünü aydınlatmak, gündüze ve geceye egemen olmak, ışığı karanlıktan ayırmak için onları gökkubbeye yerleştirdi. Tanrı bunun iyi olduğunu gördü.19Akşam oldu, sabah oldu ve dördüncü gün oluştu.20Tanrı, ‹‹Sular canlı yaratıklarla dolup taşsın, yeryüzünün üzerinde, gökte kuşlar uçuşsun›› diye buyurdu.21Tanrı büyük deniz canavarlarını, sularda kaynaşan canlıları ve uçan çeşitli varlıkları yarattı. Bunun iyi olduğunu gördü.22Tanrı, ‹‹Verimli olun, çoğalın, denizleri doldurun, yeryüzünde kuşlar çoğalsın›› diyerek onları kutsadı.23Akşam oldu, sabah oldu ve beşinci gün oluştu.24Tanrı, ‹‹Yeryüzü çeşit çeşit canlı yaratık, evcil ve yabanıl hayvan, sürüngen* türetsin›› diye buyurdu. Ve öyle oldu.25Tanrı çeşit çeşit yabanıl hayvan, evcil hayvan, sürüngen yarattı. Bunun iyi olduğunu gördü.26Tanrı, ‹‹İnsanı kendi suretimizde, kendimize benzer yaratalım›› dedi, ‹‹Denizdeki balıklara, gökteki kuşlara, evcil hayvanlara, sürüngenlere, yeryüzünün tümüne egemen olsun.››27Tanrı insanı kendi suretinde yarattı. Böylece insan Tanrı suretinde yaratılmış oldu. İnsanları erkek ve dişi olarak yarattı.28Onları kutsayarak, ‹‹Verimli olun, çoğalın›› dedi, ‹‹Yeryüzünü doldurun ve denetiminize alın; denizdeki balıklara, gökteki kuşlara, yeryüzünde yaşayan bütün canlılara egemen olun.29İşte yeryüzünde tohum veren her otu, tohumu meyvesinde bulunan her meyve ağacını size veriyorum. Bunlar size yiyecek olacak.30Yabanıl hayvanlara, gökteki kuşlara, sürüngenlere -soluk alıp veren bütün hayvanlara- yiyecek olarak yeşil otları veriyorum.›› Ve öyle oldu.31Tanrı yarattıklarına baktı ve her şeyin çok iyi olduğunu gördü. Akşam oldu, sabah oldu ve altıncı gün oluştu.

The beginning
1In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.2Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.3And God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light.4God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness.5God called the light ‘day’, and the darkness he called ‘night’. And there was evening, and there was morning – the first day.6And God said, ‘Let there be a vault between the waters to separate water from water.’7So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it. And it was so.8God called the vault ‘sky’. And there was evening, and there was morning – the second day.9And God said, ‘Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear.’ And it was so.10God called the dry ground ‘land’, and the gathered waters he called ‘seas’. And God saw that it was good.11Then God said, ‘Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.’ And it was so.12The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.13And there was evening, and there was morning – the third day.14And God said, ‘Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years,15and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.’ And it was so.16God made two great lights – the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars.17God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth,18to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good.19And there was evening, and there was morning – the fourth day.20And God said, ‘Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.’21So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.22God blessed them and said, ‘Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.’23And there was evening, and there was morning – the fifth day.24And God said, ‘Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.’ And it was so.25God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.26Then God said, ‘Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals,* and over all the creatures that move along the ground.’27So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.28God blessed them and said to them, ‘Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.’29Then God said, ‘I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.30And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground – everything that has the breath of life in it – I give every green plant for food.’ And it was so.31God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning – the sixth day.
