1 | GEN 1:1 | In the beginning God made of nought heaven and earth. (In the beginning God made out of nothing the heavens and the earth.) |
2 | GEN 1:2 | Forsooth the earth was idle and void, and darknesses were on the face of (the) depth; and the Spirit of the Lord was borne on the waters [or and the Spirit of God was borne upon the waters]. |
4 | GEN 1:4 | And God saw the light, that it was good, and he parted the light from (the) darknesses; |
5 | GEN 1:5 | and he called the light, day, and the darknesses, night. And the eventide and the morrowtide was made, one day (or the first day). |
6 | GEN 1:6 | And God said, The firmament be made in the midst of (the) waters, and part (the) waters from (the) waters. |
8 | GEN 1:8 | And God called the firmament, (the) heaven(s). And the eventide and the morrowtide was made, the second day. |
9 | GEN 1:9 | Forsooth God said, The waters, that be under (the) heaven(s), be gathered into one place, and a dry place appear; and it was done so. |
10 | GEN 1:10 | And God called the dry place, (the) earth; and he called the gatherings together of waters, the seas. And God saw that it was good; |
11 | GEN 1:11 | and said, The earth bring forth green herb, and making seed, and an apple tree making fruit by his kind, whose seed be in itself, on [the] earth; and it was done so. (and said, Let the earth bring forth green herbs, which make seed after their kind, and trees making fruit after their kind, whose seed be in them, all over the earth; and it was done so.) |
12 | GEN 1:12 | And the earth brought forth green herb and making seed by his kind, and a tree making fruit, and each having seed by his kind. And God saw that it was good. (And the earth brought forth green herbs, which make seed after their kind, and trees making fruit, and each having seed after its kind. And God saw that it was good.) |
14 | GEN 1:14 | Forsooth God said, Lights be made in the firmament of (the) heaven(s), and part they the day and (the) night; and be they into signs, and times, and days, and years; |
15 | GEN 1:15 | and shine those in the firmament of (the) heaven(s), and lighten they the earth; and it was done so. |
16 | GEN 1:16 | And God made two great lights, the greater light that it should be before to the day, and the less(er) light that it should be before to the night; and God made (the) stars; |
17 | GEN 1:17 | and setted them in the firmament of (the) heaven(s), (so) that they should shine on [the] earth, |
18 | GEN 1:18 | and that they should be before to the day and (before)[to the] night, and should part (the) light and (the) darkness. And God saw that it was good. |
20 | GEN 1:20 | Also God said (or And God said), The waters bring forth a reptile, either a creeping beast, of living soul, and a volatile, either a bird flying above [the] earth, under the firmament of (the) heaven(s). |
21 | GEN 1:21 | And God made of nought great whales, and each living soul and movable, which the waters have brought forth in their kinds; and God made of nought each volatile by his kind. And God saw that it was good; (And God made out of nothing great whales, and each living soul that moveth, which the waters brought forth after their kind; and God made out of nothing each bird after its kind. And God saw that it was good;) |
24 | GEN 1:24 | And God said, The earth bring forth a living soul in his kind, work beasts, and reptiles, either creeping beasts, and unreasonable beasts of [the] earth, by their kinds; and it was done so. (And God said, Let the earth bring forth living souls after their kind, yea, work beasts, and reptiles, or creeping beasts, and unreasoning beasts of the earth, all after their kind; and it was done so.) |
25 | GEN 1:25 | And God made unreasonable beasts of the earth by their kinds, and work beasts, and each creeping beast of the earth in his kind. And God saw that it was good; (And God made the unreasoning beasts of the earth after their kind, and the work beasts, and the reptiles of the earth, each after its kind. And God saw that it was good;) |
26 | GEN 1:26 | and said, Make we man to our image and likeness, and be he sovereign to the fishes of the sea, and to the volatiles of (the) heaven(s), and to [the] unreasonable beasts of [the] earth, and to each creature, and to each creeping beast/each reptile, which is moved in [the] earth. (and said, Let us make man in our image and likeness, and be he sovereign over the fishes of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the unreasoning beasts of the earth, yea, over each creature, and over each reptile which creepeth on the earth.) |
27 | GEN 1:27 | And God made of nought a man to his image and likeness; God made of nought a man, to the image of God; God made of nought them, male and female. (And so God made out of nothing a man in his image and likeness; God made out of nothing a man in the image of God; yea, God made them out of nothing, male and female.) |
28 | GEN 1:28 | And God blessed them, and said, Increase ye, and be ye multiplied, and fill ye the earth, and make ye it subject; and be ye lords to the fishes of the sea, and to [the] volatiles of (the) heaven(s), and to all living beasts that be moved on [the] earth, (or and be ye lords, or rule ye, over the fishes of the sea, and the birds of the air, and all the living beasts that move on the earth). |
29 | GEN 1:29 | And God said, Lo! I have given to you each herb bearing seed on [the] earth, and all (the) trees that have in themselves the seed of their kind, that they be into meat to you (or so that they can be food for you); |
30 | GEN 1:30 | and to all living beasts of [the] earth, and to each bird of (the) heaven(s), and to all things that be moved in [the] earth, and in which is a living soul, that they have (them) to eat; and it was done so. (and also for all the living beasts of the earth, and for each bird of the air, and for all the things that creep on the earth, and in which is a living soul, so that they have them to eat; and it was done so.) |
31 | GEN 1:31 | And God saw all (the) things which he (had) made, and they were full good (or and they were very good). And the eventide and the morrowtide was made, the sixth day. |
32 | GEN 2:1 | Therefore heavens and earth be made perfect, and all the ornament of those. (And so the heavens and the earth, and all their ornaments, were finished.) |
33 | GEN 2:2 | And God [ful] filled in the seventh day his work which he made; and he rested in the seventh day from all his work which he had made; (Yea, God finished his work by the seventh day; and so he rested on the seventh day from all the work which he had done;) |
34 | GEN 2:3 | and he blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it; for in that day God ceased of all his work which he made of nought, that he should make. (and he blessed the seventh day, and made it holy; for on that day God ceased from all his work which he had made out of nothing, that he had intended to make.) |
35 | GEN 2:4 | These be the generations of heaven and of earth, in the day wherein the Lord God made heaven and earth, (These be the generations, or the creation, of the heavens and the earth, in the days when the Lord God made the heavens and the earth,) |
36 | GEN 2:5 | and each little tree of [the] earth before that it sprang out in [the] earth; and he made each herb of the field before that it burgeoned. For the Lord God had not (yet) rained on the earth, and no man there was that wrought the earth (or and there was no man yet to work the earth); |
37 | GEN 2:6 | but a well went out of [the] earth, and moisted all the higher part of the earth. (but a well, or a mist, went up out of the ground, and watered all the earth’s surface.) |
38 | GEN 2:7 | Therefore the Lord God formed man of the slime of [the] earth, and breathed into his face the breathing of life; and man was made into a living soul. (And so the Lord God formed man out of the slime of the earth, and breathed into his face the breathe of life; and then the man was made into a living soul.) |
39 | GEN 2:8 | Forsooth the Lord God planted at the beginning (the) paradise of liking, wherein he set man whom he had formed. (And the Lord God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and he put the man there whom he had formed.) |
40 | GEN 2:9 | And the Lord God brought forth (out) of the earth each tree fair in sight, and sweet to eat; also he brought forth the tree of life in the midst of paradise, and the tree of knowing of good and of evil, (or and he brought forth the tree of life in the middle of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil). |
41 | GEN 2:10 | And a river went out from the place of liking to moist paradise, which river is parted from thence into four heads. (And a river went out from Eden to water the garden, and this river was parted from there into four rivers.) |
42 | GEN 2:11 | The name of the one river is Pishon, that it is that compasseth all the land of Havilah, where gold cometh forth, (The name of the first river is Pishon, and it encircleth all the land of Havilah, where gold cometh from,) |
43 | GEN 2:12 | and the gold of that land is the best, and there is found bdellium, that is, a tree of spicery, and the stone onyx; (and the gold of that land is the best, and bdellium, that is, a spice tree, is also found there, and the onyx stone as well;) |
44 | GEN 2:13 | and the name of the second river is Gihon, that it is that compasseth all the land of Ethiopia (or and it encircleth all the land of Ethiopia); |
45 | GEN 2:14 | forsooth the name of the third river is Tigris, that goeth against Assyrians (or which floweth east of Assyria); soothly the fourth river is that Euphrates. |
46 | GEN 2:15 | Therefore the Lord God took man, and set him in (the) paradise of liking, that he should work and keep it. (And so the Lord God took the man, and put him in the Garden of Eden, so that he would work it, and care for it.) |
47 | GEN 2:16 | And God commanded to him and said, Eat thou of each tree of paradise; (And God commanded to him and said, Thou can eat of every tree in the garden;) |
48 | GEN 2:17 | forsooth eat thou not of the tree of knowing of good and of evil; for in whatever day thou shalt eat thereof, thou shalt die by death. (but thou shalt not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for on the day that thou shalt eat of it, thou shalt die.) |
49 | GEN 2:18 | And the Lord God said, It is not good that a man be alone; make we to him an helper like to himself (or let us make for him a helper like himself). |
50 | GEN 2:19 | And therefore when all living beasts of [the] earth, and all the volatiles of (the) heaven(s), were formed of [the] earth, the Lord God brought those to Adam, that he should see what he should call those; for all thing that Adam called of living soul, that is the name thereof. (And so when all the living beasts of the earth, and all the birds of the air, were formed from the earth, the Lord God brought them to Adam, to see what he would call them; for whatever name that Adam called each thing with a living soul, that is its name.) |
51 | GEN 2:20 | And Adam called by their names all living things, and all volatiles [of (the) heaven(s)], and all unreasonable beasts of [the] earth. Forsooth to Adam was not found an helper like him. (And so Adam named all the living things, yea, all the birds of the air, and all the unreasoning beasts of the earth. But there was not found for Adam a helper like himself.) |
52 | GEN 2:21 | Therefore the Lord God sent sleep into Adam, and when he slept, God took one of his ribs, and filled flesh for it. (And so the Lord God sent sleep into Adam, and while he slept, God took one of his ribs, and then closed up the flesh over that place.) |
54 | GEN 2:23 | And Adam said, This is now a bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh; this shall be called virago, for she is taken (out) of man, (or she shall be called Woman, for she was taken from Man). |
56 | GEN 2:25 | Forsooth ever either was naked, that is, Adam and his wife, and they were not ashamed. (And both of them were naked, that is, the man and his wife, but they were not ashamed.) |
57 | GEN 3:1 | But the serpent was feller than all living beasts of [the] earth, which the Lord God had made. The which serpent said to the woman, Why commanded God to you, that ye should not eat of each tree of paradise? (And the serpent was more cunning than all the living beasts of the earth. And the serpent said to the woman, Why hath God commanded you to not eat from any tree in the garden?) |
58 | GEN 3:2 | To whom the woman answered, We eat of the fruit of trees that be in paradise; (To whom the woman answered, We can eat of the fruit of the trees that be in the garden;) |
59 | GEN 3:3 | soothly God commanded to us, that we should not eat of the fruit of the tree, which is in the midst of paradise (or which is in the middle of the garden), and that we should not touch it, lest peradventure we die. |
60 | GEN 3:4 | Forsooth the serpent said to the woman, Ye shall not die by death (or Ye shall not die); |
61 | GEN 3:5 | for why God knoweth that in whatever day ye shall eat thereof, your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as Gods, knowing good and evil. (for God knoweth that on whatever day ye shall eat of it, your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be like gods, knowing good and evil.) |
63 | GEN 3:7 | And the eyes of both (of them) were opened; and when they knew that they were naked, they sewed [together] the leaves of a fig tree, and made breeches to themselves (or and made breeches, or trousers, for themselves). |
64 | GEN 3:8 | And when they heard the voice of the Lord God going in paradise at the wind after midday, Adam and his wife hid them(selves) from the face of the Lord God in [the] midst of the trees of paradise. (And when they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the evening breeze, the man and his wife hid themselves from the face of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.) |
66 | GEN 3:10 | And Adam said, I heard thy voice in paradise, and I dreaded, for I was naked, and I hid me. (And the man said, I heard the sound of you walking in the garden, and I was afraid, for I was naked, and so I hid myself.) |
67 | GEN 3:11 | To whom the Lord said, Who showed to thee that thou were naked, no but for thou hast eaten of the tree of which I commanded to thee that thou shouldest not eat? (To whom the Lord said, Who told thee that thou were naked? hast thou eaten of the tree which I commanded to thee that thou shouldest not eat?) |
68 | GEN 3:12 | And Adam said, The woman which thou gavest (for) fellow(ship) to me, gave me of the tree, and I ate. (And Adam said, The woman whom thou gavest to me for fellowship, gave to me of the tree, and so I ate.) |
69 | GEN 3:13 | And the Lord said to the woman, Why didest thou this thing? The which answered, The serpent deceived me, and (so) I ate. |
70 | GEN 3:14 | And the Lord God said to the serpent, For thou didest this, thou shalt be cursed among all [the] living things, and unreasonable beasts of [the] earth; thou shalt go on thy breast, and thou shalt eat earth in all the days of thy life. (And the Lord God said to the serpent, For thou didest this, thou shalt be cursed among all the living things, and unreasoning beasts of the earth; thou shalt go upon thy breast, and thou shalt eat dust all the days of thy life.) |
71 | GEN 3:15 | I shall set [or put] enmities betwixt thee and the woman, and betwixt thy seed and her seed; she shall break thine head, and thou shalt set ambushes to her heel. (I shall put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; her seed shall break thy head, and thou shalt set ambush to her seed’s heel.) |
72 | GEN 3:16 | Also God said to the woman, I shall multiply thy wretchednesses and thy conceivings; in sorrow thou shalt bear thy children; and thou shalt be under (the) power of thine husband, and he shall be lord of thee. |
73 | GEN 3:17 | Soothly God said to Adam, For thou heardest the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded to thee that thou shouldest not eat, the earth shall be cursed in thy work, that is, for thy sin; in travails thou shalt eat thereof in all the days of thy life; (And God said to Adam, For thou heardest thy wife’s voice, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded to thee that thou shouldest not eat, the ground shall be cursed on account of thee, that is, because of thy sin; only after much travail, or much labour, shalt thou get food from it all the days of thy life;) |
74 | GEN 3:18 | it shall bring forth thorns and briars to thee, and thou shalt eat (the) herbs of the earth; |
75 | GEN 3:19 | in [the] sweat of thy cheer, [or (thy) face], thou shalt eat thy bread, till thou turn again into the earth of which thou art taken; for thou art dust, and thou shalt turn again into dust. (by the sweat of thy brow, thou shalt earn thy bread, until thou return to the earth of which thou art taken; for thou art dust, and thou shalt return to dust.) |
76 | GEN 3:20 | And Adam called the name of his wife Eve, for she was the mother of all men living (or for she was the mother of all living people). |
77 | GEN 3:21 | And the Lord God made coats of skins to Adam and Eve his wife, and clothed them; (And the Lord God made coats out of skins for Adam and Eve his wife, and clothed them;) |
79 | GEN 3:23 | And the Lord God sent him out of (the) paradise of liking, that he should work the earth, of which he was taken. (And so the Lord God sent him out of the Garden of Eden, to work the earth, from which he was taken.) |
80 | GEN 3:24 | And God casted out Adam, and setted before (the) paradise of liking cherubim, that is, (he gave it unto the) keeping of angels, and a sword of flame turning about to keep (charge of) the way of the tree of life. (And so God cast out Adam, and to the east of the Garden of Eden he placed cherubim, and a sword of flame which turned about, to guard the way to the tree of life.) |
81 | GEN 4:1 | Forsooth Adam knew Eve his wife, which conceived, and childed Cain, and said, I have gotten a man by God. (And Adam knew his wife Eve, who conceived, and bare Cain, and she said, Now, with the Lord’s help, I have begotten a man.) |
82 | GEN 4:2 | And again she childed his brother Abel. Forsooth Abel was a keeper of sheep, and Cain was an earth-tiller. (And then she bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a shepherd, and Cain was a farmer, who worked the soil.) |
85 | GEN 4:5 | soothly he beheld not to Cain and to his gifts. And Cain was wroth greatly, and his cheer felled down, (or And Cain was greatly angered, and his face fell). |
87 | GEN 4:7 | Whether not if thou shalt do well, thou shalt receive well; but if thou doest evil, thy sin shall be present anon in the gates? but the desire thereof, that is, of sin, shall be under thee, and thou shalt be lord thereof. (If thou shalt do well, then thou shalt be accepted; but if thou doest evil, then at once thy sin shall be present at the gates, and the desire of sin shall take thee under, and so thou must be lord of it, or rule over it.) |
88 | GEN 4:8 | And Cain said to Abel, his brother, Go we out, (or But then Cain said to his brother Abel, Walk with me). And when they were in the field, Cain rose (up) against his brother Abel, and killed him. |
89 | GEN 4:9 | And the Lord said to Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? Which answered, I know not; whether I am the keeper of my brother? (And the Lord said to Cain, Where is thy brother Abel? And he answered, How do I know; am I my brother’s keeper?) |
90 | GEN 4:10 | And God said to Cain, What hast thou done? the voice of the blood of thy brother crieth to me from [the] earth (or the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth out to me from the earth). |
91 | GEN 4:11 | Now therefore thou shalt be cursed on [the] earth, that opened his mouth, and received of thine hand the blood of thy brother. (And so now thou shalt be cursed on the earth, that hath opened its mouth, and received thy brother’s blood from thy hand.) |
92 | GEN 4:12 | When thou shalt work the earth, it shall not give his fruits to thee; thou shalt be unstable of dwelling, and fleeing about on [the] earth, in all the days of thy life. (When thou shalt work the earth, it shall not give its fruits to thee; thou shalt be of unstable dwelling, and fleeing about on the earth, all the days of thy life.) |
93 | GEN 4:13 | And Cain said to the Lord, My wickedness is more than that I deserve forgiveness (for); (And Cain said to the Lord, My punishment is more than that I can bear;) |
94 | GEN 4:14 | lo! today thou castest me out from the face of the earth; and I shall be hid from thy face, and I shall be unstable of dwelling, and fleeing about in (the) earth; therefore each man that shall find me shall slay me. (behold! today thou castest me out from the face of the earth; and I shall be hid from thy face, and I shall be of unstable dwelling, and fleeing about on the earth; and any man who findeth me shall slay me.) |
95 | GEN 4:15 | And the Lord said to him, It shall not be done so, but each man that shall slay Cain shall be punished sevenfold. And the Lord set a sign in Cain, that each man that should find him should not slay him. (And the Lord said to him, It shall not be done so, but any man who shall kill Cain shall be punished seven times. And the Lord put a mark on Cain, so that any man who would find him would not kill him.) |
96 | GEN 4:16 | And Cain went out from the face of the Lord, and dwelled fleeing about in [the] earth, at the east coast of Eden, that is, of (the) earthly paradise. (And so Cain went out from the face of the Lord, and lived in the land of Nod, to the east of the Garden of Eden, that is, to the east of Paradise on earth.) |
97 | GEN 4:17 | Forsooth Cain knew his wife, which conceived, and childed Enoch; and Cain builded a city, and called the name thereof of the name of his son, Enoch, (or and Cain built a city, and named it after his son Enoch). |
99 | GEN 4:19 | that took two wives, the name to the one wife was Adah, and the name to the other was Zillah. (and Lamech took two wives, and his first wife was named Adah, and the other was named Zillah.) |
100 | GEN 4:20 | And Adah begat Jabal, that was the father of (the) dwellers in tents, and of shepherds; |
101 | GEN 4:21 | and the name of his brother was Jubal; he was the father of the singers in harp and organ. (and his brother’s name was Jubal; and he was the father of the players of harps and of organs.) |
102 | GEN 4:22 | And Zillah begat Tubalcain, that was an hammer-beater, and [a] smith on all works of brass and of iron, (or who used a hammer, and was a smith of all things made out of bronze and of iron); forsooth the sister of Tubalcain was Naamah. |
103 | GEN 4:23 | And Lamech said to his wives, Adah and Zillah, Ye wives of Lamech, hear my voice, and harken (to) my word(s); for I have slain a man by my wound(ing), and a young waxing man by my violent beating, (or for I have killed a man with my wounding, and a young man with my violent beatings); |
104 | GEN 4:24 | (if) vengeance shall be given sevenfold of Cain, forsooth of Lamech seventy times seven times. (if vengeance shall be given seven times for Cain, then for Lamech it shall be seventy-seven times.) |
105 | GEN 4:25 | Also yet Adam knew his wife, and she childed a son, and called his name Seth, and said, God hath put to me another seed for Abel, whom Cain killed. (And Adam knew his wife, and she bare a son, and named him Seth, for Eve said, God hath given me another child for Abel, whom Cain killed.) |
106 | GEN 4:26 | But also a son was born to Seth, which son he called Enos; this began to call inwardly the name of the Lord. (And a son was born to Seth, whom he called Enos; and his generation began to inwardly call on the Lord’s name.) |
107 | GEN 5:1 | This is the book of the generation(s) of Adam, in the day wherein God made man of nought. God made man to the image and likeness of God; (This is the book of the descendants of Adam. On the day when God made man out of nothing, God made man in the image and likeness of God;) |
108 | GEN 5:2 | God formed them male and female, and blessed them, and called the name of them Adam, in the day in which they were formed. (God formed them male and female, and blessed them, and called their name Man, on the day when they were formed.) |
109 | GEN 5:3 | Forsooth Adam lived an hundred years and thirty, and begat a son to his image and likeness, and called his name Seth. (And Adam lived a hundred and thirty years, and then begat a son in his image and likeness, and called his name Seth.) |
111 | GEN 5:5 | And all the time in which Adam lived was made nine hundred years and thirty, and he was dead. (And all the time in which Adam lived was nine hundred and thirty years, and then he died.) |
112 | GEN 5:6 | And Seth lived an hundred and five years, and (then) begat Enos. |
114 | GEN 5:8 | And all the days of Seth were made nine hundred and twelve years, and (then) he was dead. |
115 | GEN 5:9 | Forsooth Enos lived ninety years, and (then) begat Cainan; |
117 | GEN 5:11 | And all the days of Enos were made nine hundred and five years, and (then) he was dead. |
118 | GEN 5:12 | Also Cainan lived seventy years, and begat Mahalaleel. (And Cainan lived seventy years, and then begat Mahalaleel.) |
