Pomwe Mbuya Mulungu adalenga dziko la pantsi na bzentse bza kudzulu, 5 pakhalibe cakumera ciri-cense padziko la pantsi, ndipo mbeu zikhanati kumera, thangwe Mbuya Mulungu akhanati kubvumbisa mbvula padziko la pantsi. Ndipombo pakhalibe munthu wakulima pantsi. 6 Tsono pfulere likhacoka pantsi licikwira licimbatotesa matakayo. 7 Tsono Mbuya Mulungu adatenga pfumbi pamataka aciumba munthu, ndipo adamufulizira mphuwe wa moyo mumphuno mwace, ndipo munthuyo adakhala na moyo. 8 Ndipo Mbuya Mulungu adafungula munda wa bzisapo muEdeni kucipande ca kumabvadzuwa, ndipo munthu omwe adaumba ule adamuikha momwemo. 9 Pamwepo Mulungu, pamataka adameresa miti ya mitundu iri yentse yamawonekedwe yabwino ndipo wabwino kudya. Tsono pakati pa mundayo pakhana muti wamoyo, na muti wakudziwisa bzabwino na bzakuipa.
10 Mu Edeni mukhacoka mkulo omwe ukhathiriza mundayo, kucokera mumwemo ukhagawika panai. 11 Mkulo wakuyamba ukhacemeredwa Pisoni. Umweyo umbagonyola-gonyola mudziko la Havila, komwe kuna oro. 12 Oro ya dziko lire njabwino, komweko kumbaoneka pomwe bedeliyo na mwala wa Onix. 13 Mkulo waciwiri umbacemeredwa Giom, ndiwo umbazungulira dziko la Cuxe. 14 Mkulo wacitatu umbacemerewa Tigre, omwe umbayenda kumabvadzuwa kwa Assiria, wacinai ni Eufarate.
15 Tsono Mbuya Mulungu adatenga muthu ule acimuikha m'munda mwa Edeni kuti ambaulime na kuukonkhobza. 16 Ndipo Mbuya Mulungu adamupasa mphambvu munthuyo adati: “Pa miti yentse ya m'munda dyaya mwa ufulu. 17 Tsono leka kudya muti wa kudziwisa bzabwino na bzakuipa, thangwe ntsiku yomwe undzadya, cadidi iwe un'dzafa”.
18 Patsogolo pace Mbuya adati: “Ni bzabwino lini kuti munthu akhale ekha. Ninin'konzera mwanzace kuti ambamuthandize”. 19 Ndipo Mbuya Mulungu atamara kuumba kucokera kumataka bzinyama bzense bzamtengo na mbalame zamudzulu zentse, adabzibweresa kuna Munthu, kuti awone angadabzicemera tani. Dzina lomwe munthu angadapereka kuna bzamoyo bzentse limwelo ndilo lingadakhala dzina laceene. 20 Adamu adapasa madzina bzifuwo bzense, mbalame za mudzulu na bzinyama bzense bzamuthengo. Pa bzensebzi alibe kuwona comwe cingadathandiza muthu napo kubverana naye. 21 Pamwepo Mbuya Mulungu adacitisa munthu tulo ninga adafa, ndipo pomwe iye akhali mutulo, adamucosa mbabvu ibodzi, ndipo mbutoyo adaifunga na nyama. 22 Na mbabvu yomwe Mbuya Mulungu adacosa kwa mamuna, adaikondza mkazi ndipo adambweresa kuna iye. 23 Mwamuna adati:
“Uyu ni cadidi pfupa la mapfupa yangu, ndipo
nyama ya nyama yangu.
An'dzacemeredwa mkazi thangwe acokera kwa mamuna”.
24 Ndipopo mamuna an'dzasiya baba na mai wace aciphatana na mkazi wace, iwo acikhala thupi libodzi.
25 Mwamuna na mkazi wace akhakhala pezi, tsono akhabva lini manyazi.
