2 Kyenyiki, azubha kubhanga o dyulu, o ixi ni ima yoso* yala-mu. 2 Mu kizuwa kya kasambwadi, Nzambi wazubha o kubhanga o ikalakalu yê, anga unyoha mu kizuwa kya kasambwadi, mu ikalakalu yê yoso yabhangele. 3 Nzambi wabesowala o kizuwa kya kasambwadi, wa kikôlesa. Mukonda mu kizuwa kyenyiki, Nzambi wene munyoha mu ima yoso yasolo o kubhanga.
4 Yú wene o musoso wa dyulu ni ixi mu kithangana kya ibhange, mu kizuwa kyabhange Jihova* Nzambi o ixi ni dyulu.
5 Kikwexile luwa isasa ya mukáwu mu ixi, kikumatekene luwa kusabhuka yangu ya mukáwu, mukonda Jihova Nzambi kabhangesele luwa kunoka mu ixi. Kikwexile we muthu phala kudima o mavu. 6 Maji kukala mbundu yexile mutunda mu ngongo, anga ibanda phala kutekela o mikáwu yoso.
7 Jihova Nzambi anga ubhanga o muthu ni mavu, hé u mubhusa mu mazulu o muha wa mwenyu, o muthu anga ukala ni mwenyu. 8 Jihova Nzambi wabhange we jaludim mu Edene, kutundila o dikumbi, kwene kwatula o diyala dya bhange. 9 Jihova Nzambi anga usabhukisa mixi ya idifwa yoso mu ixi, yawabha ku mesu, yawabha ku idya. Mukaxi ka jaludim wasabhukisa-mu we o muxi wa mwenyu ni muxi wa kwijiya kyawabha ni kyayibha.
10 Kwakexile ngiji yamatekene mu Edene, phala kutekela o jaludim. Ku pholo ku yayi, yadiwanuna mu jingiji* jiwana. 11 O dijina dya ngiji ya dyanga Pixone. Yéne ikondoloka o ixi yoso ya Havila, mwala o ulu. 12 O ulu ya ixi yenyoyo, yambote. Mwala we bidelyu* ni matadi a onixe. 13 O ngiji ya kayadi dijina dyê Ngibone, yéne yakondoloka o ixi yoso ya Kuxi. 14 O ngiji ya katatu Hidekele.* Yéne yiya ku mbandu kutundila o dikumbi ku ixi ya Asidya. O ngiji ya kawana Ewufalate.
15 Jihova Nzambi wakwata o diyala, wa mutula mu jaludim ya Edene phala ku idima ni ku ilanga. 16 Jihova Nzambi watendelesa we o diyala, wixi: “Ku mixi yoso yala mu jaludim udyé kala ki wamesena. 17 Maji, ku muxi wa kwijiya kyawabha ni kyayibha kana kudya-ku, mukonda mu kizuwa ki udya-ku, sé phata, wanda fwa mwene.”
18 Jihova Nzambi anga uzwela wixi: “Kikyawabha o diyala kukala ubheka wê. Nganda mubhangela mukwâ wadifu-nê, uya ni ku mukwatekesa.” 19 Jihova Nzambi wabhangele ni mavu o yama ya yangu ni yama ni ibamba yala ni mabhabha ibhita bhulu, yu wa ibhekela o diyala n’a iluku o majina. Kala kyama, o dijina dya muluku o diyala, dyene kyá mwene dyaxala-nadyu. 20 Kyenyiki, o diyala waluku o majina ku ibhaku yoso ni yama yala ni mabhabha ibhita bhulu ni yama yoso ya muxitu, maji o diyala ka kexile ni mukwâ wadifu-nê, uya ni ku mukwatekesa. 21 Jihova Nzambi ubhangesa o diyala kuya ku kilu kyazongo, kyoso kyexile ku kilu wa mukatula lumbanji lumoxi, yu wajika dingi o xitu kwatundu o lumbanji. 22 O ku lumbanji lwa katwile ku diyala, Jihova Nzambi ubhanga o muhatu, anga u mubheka ku diyala.
23 O diyala anga uzwela wixi:
“Kindala, yú mwéne kifuba kya ifuba yami,
Xitu ya xitu yami.
A kà mwixana Muhatu,
Mukonda watundu ku diyala.”
24 Mukonda dya kiki, o diyala wa kà xisa tat’ê ni mam’ê n’a dikwatenena* kwa muhat’wê, kiyadi kyâ a kà kituka xitu imoxi ngo. 25 Kiyadi kyâ, o diyala ni muhat’wê, exile ni thuxi, maji kakexile ni jisonyi.
