Sēnesi 1:1-31
1 ʻI he kamataʻangá naʻe fakatupu ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa e langí mo e māmaní.+
2 Pea naʻe maomaonganoa mo lala* ʻa e māmaní, pea naʻe fakapoʻuli ʻa e fukahi vai lahí,+ pea naʻe ngaue holo ʻa e ivi ngāue*+ ʻo e ʻOtuá ʻi he fukahi vaí.+
3 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá: “Ke ʻi ai ha maama.” Pea naʻe maama+ leva.
4 Hili iá, naʻe ʻafio ʻa e ʻOtuá ki he māmá kuo lelei, pea naʻe kamata ke vaheʻi ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa e māmá mei he poʻulí.
5 Naʻe ui ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa e māmá ko e ʻAho, ka ko e poʻulí naʻá ne ui ia ko e Pō.+ Pea naʻe efiafi pea naʻe pongipongi, ko e ʻuluaki ʻahó ia.
6 Naʻe folofola leva ʻa e ʻOtuá: “Ke ʻi ai ha ʻatā+ ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo e ngaahi vaí, pea ke fakamavahevaheʻi ʻa e ngaahi vai mei he ngaahi vai.”+
7 Naʻe hoko atu leva ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻo ne ngaohi ʻa e ʻataá pea fakamavaheʻi ʻa e ngaahi vai ʻi lalo ʻi he ʻataá mei he ngaahi vai ʻi ʻolunga ʻi he ʻataá.+ Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē.
8 Naʻe ui ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa e ʻataá ko e Langi. Pea naʻe efiafi pea naʻe pongipongi, ko e ʻaho hono uá ia.
9 Naʻe folofola leva ʻa e ʻOtuá: “Ke fakatahataha ʻa e ngaahi vai ʻi he lalo langí ki he feituʻu pē ʻe taha, pea ke hā mai ʻa e fonua mōmoá.”+ Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē.
10 Naʻe ui ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa e fonua mōmoá ko e Māmani,+ ka ko e fakatahataha ʻo e ngaahi vaí, naʻá ne ui ia ko e Tahi.+ Pea naʻe ʻafio ki ai ʻa e ʻOtuá kuo lelei.+
11 Naʻe folofola leva ʻa e ʻOtuá: “Ke tupu mai ʻa e mohuku ʻi he māmaní, ngaahi ʻakau ʻoku ʻi ai hono tenga mo e ʻuluʻakau fua ʻo fakatatau ki honau faʻahinga, ʻa ia ʻoku ʻi ai honau fua fakataha mo e tenga.” Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē.
12 Pea naʻe kamata ke tupu mai ʻi he māmaní ʻa e mohuku, ngaahi ʻakau ʻoku ʻi ai hono tenga,+ mo e ʻuluʻakau fua fakataha mo hono tenga, ʻo fakatatau ki honau faʻahinga. Naʻe ʻafio leva ki ai ʻa e ʻOtuá kuo lelei.
13 Pea naʻe efiafi pea naʻe pongipongi, ko e ʻaho hono tolú ia.
14 Naʻe folofola leva ʻa e ʻOtuá: “Ke ʻi ai ha ngaahi maamaʻanga*+ ʻi he ʻatā ʻo e langí ke ne vaheʻi ʻa e ʻahó mei he poó,+ pea te nau hoko ko ha ngaahi fakaʻilonga ki he ngaahi faʻahitaʻú, mo e ngaahi ʻahó, pea mo e ngaahi taʻú.+
15 Te nau hoko ko e ngaahi maamaʻanga ʻi he ʻatā ʻo e langí ke ulo mai ki he māmaní.” Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē.
16 Pea naʻe hoko atu ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻo ne ngaohi* ʻa e ongo maamaʻanga lalahi ʻe ua, ko e maamaʻanga naʻe ulo lahi angé ke ne puleʻi ʻa e ʻahó+ pea ko e maamaʻanga naʻe ulo siʻi angé ke ne puleʻi ʻa e poó, peá ne ngaohi mo e ngaahi fetuʻú+ foki.
17 Ko ia naʻe fokotuʻu kinautolu ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻi he ʻatā ʻo e langí ke ulo mai ki he funga ʻo māmaní
18 pea ke nau pule ki he ʻahó pea mo e poó pea ke fakamavaheʻi ʻa e māmá mei he poʻulí.+ Naʻe ʻafio leva ki ai ʻa e ʻOtuá kuo lelei.
19 Pea naʻe efiafi pea naʻe pongipongi, ko e ʻaho hono faá ia.
20 Naʻe folofola leva ʻa e ʻOtuá: “Ke ngaeve ʻa e ngaahi meʻamoʻui* ʻi he ngaahi vaí, pea ko e ngaahi meʻamoʻui ʻoku puná ke nau puna ʻi ʻolunga he māmaní ʻi he ʻatā ʻo e langí.”+
21 Pea naʻe fakatupu ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻa e ngaahi meʻamoʻui lalahi ʻo e tahí mo e meʻamoʻui kotoa pē ʻoku ngaue mo ngaeve ʻi he ngaahi vaí ʻo fakatatau ki honau faʻahinga, pea mo e meʻamoʻui kapakau kotoa pē ʻoku puna ʻo fakatatau ki honau faʻahinga. Pea naʻe ʻafio ʻa e ʻOtuá ki ai kuo lelei.
22 ʻI he meʻa ko iá naʻe tāpuakiʻi kinautolu ʻe he ʻOtuá, ʻo ne pehē: “Fanafanau pea fakatokolahi pea fakafonu ʻa e ngaahi vai ʻo e tahí,+ pea ke hoko ʻo lahi ʻi he māmaní ʻa e ngaahi meʻamoʻui ʻoku puná.”
23 Pea naʻe efiafi pea naʻe pongipongi, ko e ʻaho hono nimá ia.
24 Naʻe folofola leva ʻa e ʻOtuá: “Ke tupu mai ʻi he māmaní ʻa e ngaahi meʻamoʻui ʻo fakatatau ki honau faʻahinga, ko e fanga manu lalata mo e fanga manu totolo mo ngaolo mo e fanga manu kaivao ʻo e māmaní ʻo fakatatau ki honau faʻahinga.”+ Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē.
25 Pea naʻe hoko atu ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻo ne ngaohi ʻa e fanga manu kaivao ʻo e māmaní ʻo fakatatau ki honau faʻahinga pea mo e fanga manu lalatá ʻo fakatatau ki honau faʻahinga pea mo e fanga manu kotoa pē ʻo e kelekelé ʻoku totolo mo ngaolo, ʻo fakatatau ki honau faʻahinga. Pea naʻe ʻafio ʻa e ʻOtuá ki ai kuo lelei.
26 Naʻe folofola leva ʻa e ʻOtuá: “Ta+ ngaohi* tangata ʻi hota ʻīmisí,+ ʻo hangē ko hota tataú,+ pea ke nau pule ki he ika ʻo e tahí mo e ngaahi meʻamoʻui ʻoku puna ʻo e langí mo e fanga manu lalatá pea ki he māmaní kotoa pea mo e manu totolo mo ngaolo kotoa pē ʻoku ngaue ʻi he funga ʻo māmaní.”+
27 Pea naʻe hoko atu ʻa e ʻOtuá ʻo ne fakatupu ʻa e tangatá ʻi hono ʻīmisí, ʻi he ʻīmisi ʻo e ʻOtuá naʻá ne fakatupu ai ia; naʻá ne fakatupu kinaua ko e tangata mo e fefine.+
28 ʻIkai ko ia pē, naʻe tāpuakiʻi ʻe he ʻOtuá kinaua, pea naʻe folofola ʻa e ʻOtuá kiate kinaua: “Mo fanafanau mo fakatokolahi pea fakafonu ʻa e māmaní+ pea mo pule ki ai,+ pea pule+ ki he ika ʻo e tahí mo e ngaahi meʻamoʻui ʻoku puna ʻo e langí mo e meʻamoʻui kotoa pē ʻoku ngaue ʻi he funga ʻo māmaní.”
29 Naʻe folofola leva ʻa e ʻOtuá: “Ko eni kuó u ʻoatu kiate kimoua ʻa e ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai hono tenga ʻa ia ʻoku ʻi he funga ʻo māmaní kotoa mo e ʻuluʻakau fua kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai hono tenga. Ke hoko ia ko hoʻomo meʻakai.+
30 Pea ki he fanga manu kaivao kotoa pē ʻo e māmaní, pea ki he meʻamoʻui kotoa pē ʻoku puna ʻo e langí, pea ki he meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku ngaue ʻi he funga ʻo māmaní ʻa ia ʻoku moʻuí, kuó u ʻoatu maʻanautolu ʻa e mohuku lanu mata kotoa pē ko ʻenau meʻakai.”+ Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē.
31 ʻI he hili iá, naʻe ʻafio ʻa e ʻOtuá ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻá ne ngaohí, pea vakai, kuo lelei ʻaupito.+ Pea naʻe efiafi pea naʻe pongipongi, ko e ʻaho hono onó ia.
