Lilanga lesikhombisa
1Ngako-ke kwase kupheleliswe lizulu nemhlaba, nendalo yako konkhe. 2 Ngelilanga lesikhombisa Nkulunkulu abesawucedzile wonkhe umsebenti wakhe labewenta; wase uyaphumula. 3Ngako-ke Nkulunkulu walibusisa lilanga lesikhombisa, walingcwelisa; ngobe ngalo waphumula emsebentini wakhe wonkhe wekudala.
4Ladalwa kanjalo-ke lizulu nemhlaba.
Insimi yase-Edeni
Ngesikhatsi Nkulunkulu Simakadze enta umhlaba nelizulu, 5kusete nakunye lokumilako emhlabeni, netibhidvo tisengakabikho, ngobe Nkulunkulu Simakadze abesengakayinisi imvula emhlabeni, kwakute umuntfu wekuwulima lomhlaba. 6Noko kwenyuka inkhungu, iphuma emhlabatsini, yanisela wonkhe umhlaba.
7 Nkulunkulu Simakadze wase ubumba umuntfu ngelutfuli lwemhlabatsi, waphefumulela umoya wekuphila emakhaleni akhe; umuntfu wase uba ngumuntfu lophilako.
8Nkulunkulu Simakadze wahlanyela insimi yase-Edeni ngasemphumalanga; wambeka khona-ke lomuntfu labesamentile. 9Nkulunkulu Simakadze wamilisa emhlabatsini tonkhe tihlahla letibukekako letimnandzi; ekhatsi nensimi wamilisa sihlahla sekuphila kanye nesihlahla sekwati lokuhle nalokubi.
10Kwavela umfula lowageleta wanisela insimi yase-Edeni, udzabula ekhatsi nayo, bese wehlukana uba ngimifula lemine. 11Libito lemfula wekucala yiPhishoni; ngulona logeleta utungelete lonkhe live laseHavila, lapho kunegolide khona. 12Igolide yalelo live yinhle kakhulu; kunenhlaka yebhedola kanye nelitje isholamu kulelo live. 13Umfula wesibili yiGihoni; ngiwo logeleta utungelete lonkhe live laseKushe. 14Libito lemfula wesitsatfu yiThigrisi, logeletela ngasemphumalanga ye-Asiriya. Umfula wesine yiYufrathe.
15Nkulunkulu Simakadze wamtsatsa umuntfu wambeka ensimini yase-Edeni kutsi ayilime, ayilindze. 16Nkulunkulu Simakadze wamyala umuntfu watsi kuye: “Ungadla ngekutsandza kwakho tonkhe titselo letilapha ensimini; 17kodvwa ungasidli sitselo sesihlahla sekwati lokulungile nalokungakalungi, ngobe mhlazana usidla uyakufa nekufa.”
Kudalwa kwalomsikati
18 Nkulunkulu Simakadze watsi: “Akukuhle kutsi umuntfu ahlale yedvwana. Ngitamentela umsiti lolungele yena.” 19Ngako-ke Nkulunkulu Simakadze wabumba ngemhlabatsi tonkhe tilwane tesiganga, netinyoni letindiza emoyeni, watiletsa kumuntfu kutsi abone kutsi utetsa njani. Lawo mabito latetsa wona tabitwa ngawo. 20Ngako-ke umuntfu watetsa emabito tonkhe tifuyo, netinyoni letindiza emoyeni, nato tonkhe tilwane tesiganga. Kepha Adamu akamtfolanga umsiti labelungele yena. 21Ngako-ke Nkulunkulu Simakadze wamehlisela umuntfu butfongo lobukhulu; walala. Nkulunkulu wase ukhipha lolunye lwetimbambo takhe wagcwalisa sikhala ngenyama. 22 Nkulunkulu Simakadze wambumba lomsikati ngelubhambo labelukhiphe kulomdvuna, wase umyisa endvodzeni.
23Indvodza yatsi:
“Lona-ke sewulitsambo lematsambo ami,
nenyama yenyama yami.
Uyawubitwa ngekutsi: ‘yindvodzakati’,
ngobe utsetfwe endvodzeni.”
24 Ngako-ke indvodza iyawushiya uyise nenina inamatsele kumfati wayo, bese baba nyamanye.
25Babehamba ngcunu, bobabili, lendvodza nemkayo, bate emahloni.
