1 B ilowgii Ilaah samada iyo dhulkuu abuuray.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

2 D hulkuna qaab ma lahayn, wuuna madhnaa; gudcurna moolkuu dul joogay; oo Ruuxa Ilaahna wuxuu ka dul dhaqdhaqaaqayay biyaha.

The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

3 I laahna wuxuu yidhi, Iftiin ha ahaado: iftiin baana ahaaday.

Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light.

4 I laahna wuxuu arkay iftiinkii inuu wanaagsan yahay: Ilaahna iftiinkii ayuu ka soocay gudcurkii.

And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness.

5 I laahna iftiinkii wuxuu u bixiyey Maalin, gudcurkiina wuxuu u bixiyey Habeen. Waxaana jiray fiid iyo subax, isla maalin ah.

God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day.

6 I laahna wuxuu yidhi, Meel bannaani ha noqoto biyaha dhexdooda, oo iyadu biyaha ha ka soocdo biyaha.

Then God said, “Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.”

7 M arkaasuu Ilaah sameeyey meeshii bannaanka ahayd, oo wuxuu biyihii bannaanka ka hooseeyey ka soocay kuwii bannaanka ka sarreeyey; sidaasayna ahaatay.

Thus God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so.

8 I laahna bannaankii wuxuu u bixiyey Samo. Waxaana jiray fiid iyo subax, maalintii labaad.

And God called the firmament Heaven. So the evening and the morning were the second day.

9 I laahna wuxuu yidhi, Biyaha samada ka hooseeya meel ha isugu soo urureen, oo ciidda engegani ha muuqato; sidaasayna ahaatay.

Then God said, “Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear”; and it was so.

10 M arkaasuu Ilaah ciiddii engegnayd u bixiyey Dhul; ururkii biyahana wuxuu u bixiyey Bado: oo Ilaah wuxuu arkay in taasu wanaagsan tahay.

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

11 I laahna wuxuu yidhi, Dhulku ha soo bixiyo doog, iyo geedo yaryar oo iniino dhala, iyo geedo waaweyn oo midho caynkooda ah dhala, oo iniinahoodu ku dhex jiraan, oo dhulka ku kor yaal; sidaasayna ahaatay.

Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth”; and it was so.

12 D hulkiina wuxuu soo bixiyey doog, iyo geedo yaryar oo leh iniino caynkooda ah, iyo geedo waaweyn oo midho dhala, oo iniinahoodu ku dhex jiraan, iyagoo caynkooda ah, Ilaahna wuxuu arkay in taasu wanaagsan tahay.

And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

13 W axaana jiray fiid iyo subax, maalintii saddexaad.

So the evening and the morning were the third day.

14 I laahna wuxuu yidhi, Iftiimmo ha ahaadeen meesha bannaan oo samada dhex ah si ay u kala soocaan maalinta iyo habeenka; oo ha u ahaadeen calaamooyin, iyo xilliyo, iyo maalmo iyo sannado;

Then God said, “Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years;

15 o o iftiimmo ha u noqdeen meeshii bannaanayd oo samada dhex ahayd si ay u iftiimiyaan dhulka dushiisa; sidaasayna ahaatay.

and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth”; and it was so.

16 O o Ilaah wuxuu sameeyey labada iftiin ee waaweyn; si uu iftiinka weynu u xukumo maalinta, iftiinka yaruna u xukumo habeenka; oo xiddigahana wuu sameeyey.

Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also.

17 I laahna wuxuu iyaga dhigay meeshii bannaanayd oo samada dhex ahayd si ay dhulka u iftiimiyaan,

God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth,

18 o o ay u xukumaan maalinta iyo habeenka, oo ay iftiinka uga soocaan gudcurka, Ilaahna wuxuu arkay in taasu wanaagsan tahay.

and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.

19 O o waxaana jiray fiid iyo subax, maalintii afraad.

So the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

20 O o Ilaah wuxuu yidhi, Biyuhu aad ha u soo bixiyeen uun dhaqdhaqaaqa oo badan, oo naf nool leh, haadduna ha duusho dhulka dushiisa xagga meeshii bannaanayd oo samada dhex ahayd.

Then God said, “Let the waters abound with an abundance of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the face of the firmament of the heavens.”

21 O o Ilaah wuxuu abuuray nibiriyada badda oo waaweyn, iyo uun kasta oo nool oo dhaqdhaqaaqa, ee biyuhu aad u soo bixiyeen iyagoo badan, oo caynkooda oo kale dhala, iyo haad kasta oo caynkiisa dhala; Ilaahna wuxuu arkay in taasu wanaagsan tahay.

So God created great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded, according to their kind, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

22 O o Ilaah baa barakeeyey iyaga, isagoo leh, Wax badan dhala, oo tarma, oo biyaha badaha ka buuxsama, haadduna ha ku tarmeen dhulka.

And God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth.”

23 O o waxaana jiray fiid iyo subax, maalintii shanaad.

So the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

24 O o Ilaah wuxuu yidhi, Dhulku ha soo bixiyo uun nool oo caynkiisa dhala, kuwaasoo ah xoolo, iyo waxa gurguurta, iyo dugaagga dhulka oo caynkooda dhala; sidaasayna ahaatay.

Then God said, “Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind”; and it was so.

25 I laahna wuxuu sameeyey dugaagga dhulka oo caynkiisa dhala, iyo xoolo caynkooda dhala, iyo wax kasta oo dhulka gurguurta oo caynkiisa dhala; Ilaahna wuxuu arkay in taasu wanaagsan tahay.

And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

26 I laahna wuxuu yidhi, Aan nin inoo eg ka samayno araggeenna, oo iyagu ha xukumeen kalluunka badda, iyo haadda hawada, iyo xoolaha, iyo dhulka oo dhan, iyo waxa dhulka gurguurta oo dhan.

Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.”

27 O o Ilaah nin buu ka abuuray araggiisa, Ilaah araggiisa ayuu ka abuuray isaga; lab iyo dhaddig ayuu abuuray.

So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

28 O o Ilaah waa barakeeyey iyaga; oo Ilaah wuxuu iyaga ku yidhi, Wax badan dhala oo tarma, oo dhulka ka buuxsama, oo ka sara mara dhulka, oo xukuma kalluunka badda, iyo haadda hawada, iyo wax kasta oo nool oo dhulka kor dhaqdhaqaaqa.

Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”

29 O o Ilaah wuxuu yidhi, Bal eeg, waxaan idin siiyey geed kasta oo yar oo iniino dhala, oo ku yaal dhulka dushiisa oo dhan, iyo geed kasta oo weyn, kaasoo midho leh, iniinona dhala; oo waxay idiin noqon doonaan cunto;

And God said, “See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food.

30 o o dugaag kasta oo dhulka jooga, iyo haad kasta oo hawada duula, iyo wax kasta oo dhulka gurguurta, oo naf nool leh ayaan geed kasta oo cagaar ah cunto u siiyey; sidaasayna ahaatay.

Also, to every beast of the earth, to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food”; and it was so.

31 O o Ilaah wuxuu arkay wax kasta oo uu sameeyey, oo bal eeg, aad bay u wanaagsanaayeen. Waxaana jiray fiid iyo subax, maalintii lixaad.

Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
