¹ At nayari ang langit at ang lupa, at ang lahat na natatanaw sa mga iyon.

² At nang ikapitong araw ay nayari ng Dios ang kaniyang gawang ginawa; at nagpahinga ng ikapitong araw sa madlang gawa niyang ginawa.

³ At binasbasan ng Dios ang ikapitong araw at kaniyang ipinangilin, sapagka't siyang ipinagpahinga ng Dios sa madlang gawang kaniyang nilikha at ginawa.

⁴ Ito ang pinangyarihan ng langit at ng lupa, nang likhain noong araw, na gawin ng Panginoong Dios ang lupa't langit.

⁵ At wala pa sa lupang kahoy sa parang, at wala pang anomang pananim na tumutubo sa parang: (sapagka't hindi pa pinauulanan ng Panginoong Dios ang lupa) at wala pang taong magbukid ng lupa,

⁶ Nguni't may isang ulap na napaitaas buhat sa lupa at dinilig ang buong ibabaw ng lupa.

⁷ At nilalang ng Panginoong Dios ang tao sa alabok ng lupa, at hiningahan ang kaniyang mga butas ng ilong ng hininga ng buhay; at ang tao ay naging kaluluwang may buhay.

⁸ At naglagay ang Panginoong Dios ng isang halamanan sa Eden, sa dakong silanganan: at inilagay niya roon ang taong kaniyang nilalang.

⁹ At pinatubo ng Panginoong Dios sa lupa ang lahat na punong kahoy na nakalulugod sa paningin, at mabubuting kanin; gayon din ang punong kahoy ng buhay sa gitna ng halamanan, at ang punong kahoy ng pagkakilala ng mabuti at masama.

¹⁰ At may isang ilog na lumabas sa Eden na dumilig sa halamanan; at mula roo'y nabahagi at nagapat na sanga.

¹¹ Ang pangalan ng una ay Pison: na siyang lumiligid sa buong lupain ng Havilah, na doo'y may ginto;

¹² At ang ginto sa lupang yao'y mabuti; mayroon din naman doong bedelio at batong onix.

¹³ At ang pangalan ng ikalawang ilog ay Gihon; na siyang lumiligid sa buong lupain ng Cush.

¹⁴ At ang pangalan ng ikatlong ilog ay Hiddecel, na siyang umaagos sa tapat ng Asiria. At ang ikaapat na ilog ay ang Eufrates.

¹⁵ At kinuha ng Panginoong Dios ang lalake at inilagay sa halamanan ng Eden, upang kaniyang alagaan at ingatan.

¹⁶ At iniutos ng Panginoong Dios sa lalake, na sinabi, Sa lahat ng punong kahoy sa halamanan ay makakakain ka na may kalayaan:

¹⁷ Datapuwa't sa kahoy ng pagkakilala ng mabuti at masama ay huwag kang kakain; sapagka't sa araw na ikaw ay kumain niyaon ay walang pagsalang mamamatay ka.

¹⁸ At sinabi ng Panginoong Dios, Hindi mabuti na ang lalake ay magisa; siya'y ilalalang ko ng isang katulong niya.

¹⁹ At nilalang ng Panginoong Dios sa lupa ang lahat ng hayop sa parang at ang lahat ng ibon sa himpapawid; at pinagdadala sa lalake upang maalaman kung anong itatawag niya sa mga iyon: at ang bawa't itinawag ng lalake sa bawa't kinapal na may buhay ay yaon ang naging pangalan niyaon.

²⁰ At pinanganlan ng lalake ang lahat ng mga hayop, at ang mga ibon sa himpapawid, at ang bawa't ganid sa parang; datapuwa't sa lalake ay walang nasumpungang maging katulong niya.

²¹ At hinulugan ng Panginoong Dios ng di kawasang himbing ang lalake, at siya'y natulog: at kinuha ang isa sa kaniyang mga tadyang at pinapaghilom ang laman sa dakong yaon:

²² At ang tadyang na kinuha ng Panginoong Dios sa lalake ay ginawang isang babae, at ito'y dinala niya sa lalake.

²³ At sinabi ng lalake, Ito nga'y buto ng aking mga buto at laman ng aking laman: siya'y tatawaging Babae, sapagka't sa Lalake siya kinuha.

²⁴ Kaya't iiwan ng lalake ang kaniyang ama at ang kaniyang ina, at makikipisan sa kaniyang asawa: at sila'y magiging isang laman.

²⁵ At sila'y kapuwa hubad, ang lalake at ang kaniyang asawa, at sila'y hindi nagkakahiyaan.

¹ Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,

² "Speak to the children of Israel, saying, 'These are the living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth.

³ Whatever parts the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and chews the cud among the animals, that you may eat.

⁴ "'Nevertheless these you shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those who part the hoof: the camel, because he chews the cud but doesn't have a parted hoof, he is unclean to you.

⁵ The coney, because he chews the cud but doesn't have a parted hoof, he is unclean to you.

⁶ The hare, because she chews the cud but doesn't part the hoof, she is unclean to you.

⁷ The pig, because he has a split hoof, and is cloven-footed, but doesn't chew the cud, he is unclean to you.

⁸ Of their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch; they are unclean to you.

⁹ "'These you may eat of all that are in the waters: whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, that you may eat.

¹⁰ All that don't have fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are an abomination to you,

¹¹ and you detest them. You shall not eat of their flesh, and you shall detest their carcasses.

¹² Whatever has no fins nor scales in the waters, that is an abomination to you.

¹³ "'These you shall detest among the birds; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the vulture, and the black vulture,

¹⁴ and the red kite, any kind of black kite,

¹⁵ any kind of raven,

¹⁶ the horned owl, the screech owl, and the gull, any kind of hawk,

¹⁷ the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl,

¹⁸ the white owl, the desert owl, the osprey,

¹⁹ the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, and the bat.

²⁰ "'All flying insects that walk on all fours are an abomination to you.

²¹ Yet you may eat these: of all winged creeping things that go on all fours, which have legs above their feet, with which to hop on the earth.

²² Even of these you may eat: any kind of locust, any kind of katydid, any kind of cricket, and any kind of grasshopper.

²³ But all winged creeping things which have four feet, are an abomination to you.

²⁴ "'By these you will become unclean: whoever touches the carcass of them shall be unclean until the evening.

²⁵ Whoever carries any part of their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.

²⁶ "'Every animal which parts the hoof, and is not cloven-footed, nor chews the cud, is unclean to you. Everyone who touches them shall be unclean.

²⁷ Whatever goes on its paws, among all animals that go on all fours, they are unclean to you. Whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.

²⁸ He who carries their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. They are unclean to you.

²⁹ "'These are they which are unclean to you among the creeping things that creep on the earth: the weasel, the rat, any kind of great lizard,

³⁰ the gecko, and the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink, and the chameleon.

³¹ These are they which are unclean to you among all that creep. Whoever touches them when they are dead, shall be unclean until the evening.

³² On whatever any of them falls when they are dead, it shall be unclean; whether it is any vessel of wood, or clothing, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel it is, with which any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening; then it will be clean.

³³ Every earthen vessel, into which any of them falls, all that is in it shall be unclean, and you shall break it.

³⁴ All food which may be eaten, that on which water comes, shall be unclean; and all drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be unclean.

³⁵ Everything whereupon part of their carcass falls shall be unclean; whether oven, or range for pots, it shall be broken in pieces: they are unclean, and shall be unclean to you.

³⁶ Nevertheless a spring or a cistern in which water is a gathered shall be clean: but that which touches their carcass shall be unclean.

³⁷ If part of their carcass falls on any sowing seed which is to be sown, it is clean.

³⁸ But if water is put on the seed, and part of their carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you.

³⁹ "'If any animal, of which you may eat, dies; he who touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening.

⁴⁰ He who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. He also who carries its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.

⁴¹ "'Every creeping thing that creeps on the earth is an abomination. It shall not be eaten.

⁴² Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet, even all creeping things that creep on the earth, them you shall not eat; for they are an abomination.

⁴³ You shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creeps, neither shall you make yourselves unclean with them, that you should be defiled thereby.

⁴⁴ For I am Yahweh your God. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy: neither shall you defile yourselves with any kind of creeping thing that moves on the earth.

⁴⁵ For I am Yahweh who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. You shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.

⁴⁶ "'This is the law of the animal, and of the bird, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps on the earth,

⁴⁷ to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and between the living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.'"
