I tempi antichi, dalla creazione ad Abramo(A)

La creazione

(B)Nel principio Dio creò i cieli e la terra.

(C)La terra era informe e vuota, le tenebre coprivano la faccia dell’abisso e lo Spirito di Dio aleggiava sulla superficie delle acque.

Dio disse: «Sia luce!» E luce fu. Dio vide che la luce era buona; e Dio separò la luce dalle tenebre. Dio chiamò la luce «giorno» e le tenebre «notte». Fu sera, poi fu mattina: primo giorno.

(D)Poi Dio disse: «Vi sia una distesa[a] tra le acque, che separi le acque dalle acque». Dio fece la distesa e separò le acque che erano sotto la distesa dalle acque che erano sopra la distesa. E così fu. Dio chiamò la distesa «cielo». Fu sera, poi fu mattina: secondo giorno.

(E)Poi Dio disse: «Le acque che sono sotto il cielo siano raccolte in un unico luogo e appaia l’asciutto». E così fu. 10 Dio chiamò l’asciutto «terra», e chiamò la raccolta delle acque «mari». Dio vide che questo era buono. 11 Poi Dio disse: «Produca la terra della vegetazione, delle erbe che facciano seme e degli alberi fruttiferi che, secondo la loro specie, portino del frutto avente in sé la propria semenza, sulla terra». E così fu. 12 La terra produsse della vegetazione, delle erbe che facevano seme secondo la loro specie e degli alberi che portavano del frutto avente in sé la propria semenza, secondo la loro specie. Dio vide che questo era buono. 13 Fu sera, poi fu mattina: terzo giorno.

14 (F)Poi Dio disse: «Vi siano delle luci nella distesa dei cieli per separare il giorno dalla notte; siano dei segni per le stagioni, per i giorni e per gli anni; 15 facciano luce nella distesa dei cieli per illuminare la terra». E così fu. 16 Dio fece le due grandi luci: la luce maggiore per presiedere al giorno e la luce minore per presiedere alla notte; e fece pure le stelle. 17 Dio le mise nella distesa dei cieli per illuminare la terra, 18 per presiedere al giorno e alla notte e separare la luce dalle tenebre. Dio vide che questo era buono. 19 Fu sera, poi fu mattina: quarto giorno.

20 (G)Poi Dio disse: «Producano le acque in abbondanza esseri viventi, e volino degli uccelli sopra la terra per l’ampia distesa del cielo». 21 Dio creò i grandi animali acquatici e tutti gli esseri viventi che si muovono, e che le acque produssero in abbondanza secondo la loro specie, e ogni volatile secondo la sua specie. Dio vide che questo era buono. 22 Dio li benedisse dicendo: «Crescete, moltiplicatevi e riempite le acque dei mari, e si moltiplichino gli uccelli sulla terra». 23 Fu sera, poi fu mattina: quinto giorno.

24 (H)Poi Dio disse: «Produca la terra animali viventi secondo la loro specie: bestiame, rettili e animali selvatici della terra, secondo la loro specie». E così fu. 25 Dio fece gli animali selvatici della terra secondo le loro specie, il bestiame secondo le sue specie e tutti i rettili della terra secondo le loro specie. Dio vide che questo era buono.

Creazione dell’uomo e della donna

26 (I)Poi Dio disse: «Facciamo l’uomo a nostra immagine, conforme alla nostra somiglianza, e abbiano dominio sui pesci del mare, sugli uccelli del cielo, sul bestiame, su tutta la terra e su tutti i rettili che strisciano sulla terra». 27 Dio creò l’uomo a sua immagine; lo creò a immagine di Dio; li creò maschio e femmina. 28 Dio li benedisse; e Dio disse loro: «Siate fecondi e moltiplicatevi; riempite la terra, rendetevela soggetta, dominate sui pesci del mare e sugli uccelli del cielo e sopra ogni animale che si muove sulla terra». 29 Dio disse: «Ecco, io vi do ogni erba che fa seme sulla superficie di tutta la terra, e ogni albero fruttifero che fa seme; questo vi servirà di nutrimento. 30 A ogni animale della terra, a ogni uccello del cielo e a tutto ciò che si muove sulla terra e ha in sé un soffio di vita, io do ogni erba verde per nutrimento». E così fu. 31 Dio vide tutto quello che aveva fatto, ed ecco, era molto buono. Fu sera, poi fu mattina: sesto giorno.

  1. Genesi 1:6 Una distesa, altri traducono: un’atmosfera o firmamento.

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

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

And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

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

And 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.

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

And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.

14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

16 And 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 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

18 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 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.

25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.

31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

The Beginning

In the beginning(A) God created(B) the heavens(C) and the earth.(D) Now the earth was formless(E) and empty,(F) darkness was over the surface of the deep,(G) and the Spirit of God(H) was hovering(I) over the waters.

And God said,(J) “Let there be light,” and there was light.(K) God saw that the light was good,(L) and he separated the light from the darkness.(M) God called(N) the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.”(O) And there was evening, and there was morning(P)—the first day.

And God said,(Q) “Let there be a vault(R) between the waters(S) to separate water from water.” So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it.(T) And it was so.(U) God called(V) the vault “sky.”(W) And there was evening, and there was morning(X)—the second day.

And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place,(Y) and let dry ground(Z) appear.” And it was so.(AA) 10 God called(AB) the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters(AC) he called “seas.”(AD) And God saw that it was good.(AE)

11 Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation:(AF) seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.(AG)” And it was so.(AH) 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds(AI) and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.(AJ) 13 And there was evening, and there was morning(AK)—the third day.

14 And God said, “Let there be lights(AL) in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night,(AM) and let them serve as signs(AN) to mark sacred times,(AO) and days and years,(AP) 15 and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so.(AQ) 16 God made two great lights—the greater light(AR) to govern(AS) the day and the lesser light to govern(AT) the night.(AU) He also made the stars.(AV) 17 God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, 18 to govern the day and the night,(AW) and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good.(AX) 19 And there was evening, and there was morning(AY)—the fourth day.

20 And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures,(AZ) and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.”(BA) 21 So God created(BB) the great creatures of the sea(BC) and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it,(BD) according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind.(BE) And God saw that it was good.(BF) 22 God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.”(BG) 23 And there was evening, and there was morning(BH)—the fifth day.

24 And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures(BI) according to their kinds:(BJ) the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so.(BK) 25 God made the wild animals(BL) according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds.(BM) And God saw that it was good.(BN)

26 Then God said, “Let us(BO) make mankind(BP) in our image,(BQ) in our likeness,(BR) so that they may rule(BS) over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky,(BT) over the livestock and all the wild animals,[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”

27 So God created(BU) mankind(BV) in his own image,(BW)
    in the image of God(BX) he created them;
    male and female(BY) he created them.(BZ)

28 God blessed them and said to them,(CA) “Be fruitful and increase in number;(CB) fill the earth(CC) and subdue it. Rule over(CD) the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.(CE)

29 Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.(CF) 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life(CG) in it—I give every green plant for food.(CH)” And it was so.

31 God saw all that he had made,(CI) and it was very good.(CJ) And there was evening, and there was morning(CK)—the sixth day.
