Genesesi
3 Sambano lijoka lyaliji lyakalamuka mnope kupunda yinyama yosope yamwitinji yele Yehofa Mlungu ŵayipanganyisye. Myoyo lijokalyo lyaŵechete kwa jwamkongwejo kuti, “Ana yisyene kuti Mlungu ŵamsalile jemanja kuti mkalyaga yisogosi ya mu chitela chilichose cha mumgundamu?” 2 Pelepo jwamkongwejo ŵalijanjile lijokalyo kuti, “Yisogosi yosope ya m’yitela yayili mumgundamu tukusosekwa tulyeje. 3 Nambo pakwamba ya yisogosi ya mu chitela chachili pasikati pamgundawu, Mlungu ŵatite, ‘Mkasimlya yisogosi ya mu chitela chelechi soni mkalinga kuchikwaya chitelacho. Ligongo naga mkutenda yeleyi, chimchiwa.’” 4 Pelepo lijokalyo lyamsalile jwamkongwejo kuti, “Nditu kuwa ngasim’wa. 5 Pakuŵa Mlungu akumanyilila kuti lisiku lyachimchilya chisogosi cha mu chitelacho meso genu gachiwuguka, ni chimchiŵa ŵakulandana ni Mlungu soni chimchimanyililaga chambone ni chakusakala.”
6 Ndaŵi jijojo jwamkongwejo jwayiweni kuti yisogosi ya mu chitelacho yaliji yambone kulya soni yakumbilichika ni yakusalala pakuyiwona. Myoyo jwamkongwejo jwakaŵile chisogosi cha mu chitelacho ni kutanda kulya. Kaneko jwamkongwejo ŵapelesoni ŵamkwakwe pandaŵi jaŵaliji yimpepe, mwamti nombe nawo ŵatandite kulya. 7 Pelepo meso ga jemanjajo gawugwiche, mwamti ŵamanyilile kuti ali makonope. Myoyo jemanjajo ŵatotile yakuwala ya masamba ga chitela cha mkuju, ni ŵawete kuti asise umakonope wawo.
8 Kaneko jemanjajo ŵapikene maloŵe ga Yehofa Mlungu pandaŵi ja kambepo kakusisimila,* pele jwalakwejo ŵajendaga mumgundamo. Paŵapikene maloŵego, jwamlumejo ni ŵamkwakwe ŵajuŵile payitela ya mumgundamo kuti Yehofa Mlungu akawona. 9 Yehofa Mlungu ŵapitilisye kumŵilanga mundujo kuti, “Ana mli kwapi?” 10 Pelepo mundujo ŵajanjile kuti, “Napikene maloŵe gawo mumgundamu. Nambo natendaga woga ligongo naliji makonope, ni najuŵile.” 11 Pelepo Mlungu ni ŵamwusisye jwalakwejo kuti, “Ŵani ŵamsalile kuti mli makonope? Ana mlile yisogosi ya mu chitela chinamsalile kuti mkalya chila?” 12 Mundujo ni jwajanjile kuti, “Jwamkongwe juŵambele wawojo jula ni juŵambele chisogosicho kuti ndye, mwamti nalile.” 13 Yehofa Mlungu ni ŵamwusisye jwamkongwejo kuti, “Ayi ni yapi yamtesileyi?” Ni jwamkongwejo ŵajanjile kuti, “Lijoka lyalambwisye, ni nalile.”
14 Sambano Yehofa Mlungu ŵalisalile lijokalyo kuti, “Ligongo lyakuti mtesile yeleyi, chimŵe ŵalweseche* pa yinyama yosope yakulanga soni pa yinyama yosope yamwitinji. Chimkwaŵeje ni lutumbo lwenu soni chimlyeje luwundu kwa umi wenu wosope. 15 Nambosoni chinjiŵika uŵengani pasikati pa mmwejo ni jwamkongwejo, soni pasikati pa ŵanache* ŵenu ni mwanache* jwa jwamkongwejo. Jwalakwejo chachikasanya mtwe wenu, soni mmwejo timchiluma* chindende chakwe.”
16 Kaneko Mlungu ŵamsalile jwamkongwejo kuti, “Chinjitupiya yakupweteka yenu pandaŵi jamkwete msigo. Chimchipikanaga kupweteka pakuŵeleka soni chimchisachilila kuŵa ni ŵamkwenu, mwamti ŵamkwenuwo chachimlamulila.”
17 Nombenajo Adamu ŵamsalile kuti, “Ligongo lyakuti mpikanile maloŵe ga ŵamkwenu soni mlile yisogosi ya mu chitela chinamlamwile kuti, ‘Mkasimlya yisogosi ya mu chitela chelechi,’ litaka chiliŵe lyelweseche* kwa mmwejo. Chimchilaga mnope kwa umi wenu wosope kuti mpate yakulya kutyochela mu litala lyeleli. 18 Mwitakamo muchimela miŵa soni maluŵa gakusoma, nambosoni timchilya yakumela yamwitinji. 19 Kuti mpate yakulya timchikamulaga mnope masengo mpaka koposya chitukuta, mpaka pele timchiwujila kwitaka. Pakuŵa mwatyochele ku luwundu, timchiwujila ku luwundu peko.”
20 Panyuma pakwe Adamu ŵapele ŵamkwakwe lina lyakuti Hawa,* ligongo lyakuti jwalakweju chachiŵa mama jwa ŵandu wosope. 21 Kaneko Yehofa Mlungu ŵampanganyichisye Adamu soni ŵamkwakwe, yakuwala yelewu yalipende kuti awaleje. 22 Ni kaneko Yehofa Mlungu ŵaŵechete kuti, “Sambano mundu aŵele mpela m’weji, pakuŵa akumanyilila yambone ni yakusakala. Myoyo kuti jwalakwe akatambasukula mkono wakwe ni kukaŵasoni yisogosi ya m’chitela cha umi kuti alye ni kutama ni umi wangamala,* . . .” 23 Pelepo Yehofa Mlungu ŵamtopwele mundujo mumgunda wa Edeni mula kuti akalimeje mu litaka lilyolyo liŵampanganyichisye. 24 Myoyo jwalakwe ŵamkopwesye mundujo. Ni ŵaŵisile akelubi soni upanga* wakolela moto wawasyungulilaga mwangalechesya chakungopokolyuŵa kwa mgunda wa Edeni, kuti alondeleje litala lyakwawula ku chitela cha umi.
