3 Nyoka, kiawu kivangu kiluta ba keba keba mu bibulu bioso binsitu Yave Nzambi kavanga. Diawu kakambila nkietu: “Mawu kuandi Nzambi katuba, ti mulendi dia ko makundi ma minti mioso midi ku paladizu?*
2 Bosi nkietu wukamba nyoka: “Befu tuidi nsua wu kudia makundi ma minti midi ku paladizu.
3 Vayi mu matedi makundi ma nti widi va khati tsika paladizu, Nzambi wutuba: “Bikanu kudia mawu ayi bikanu kusimba mawu, kibila benu kuvanga mawu lunkuiza fua.
4 Ayi nyoka yivutudila nkietu: “Benu luisinkuiza fua ko.
5 Kibila Nzambi zebi ti, kilumbu luala dia makundi beni, luala ba beni nduenga, luala ba buka Nzambi ayi luala zaba kusuasisa mamboti ayi mambi.”
6 Mu phila ayoyo, nkietu wumona ti makundi ma nti beni maba mamboti muingi kudia, ayi ti nti beni wuba kitoko muingi kutala. Diawu kabongila dikundi di nti beni ayi wudia, bosi bo nnuni’andi kaba yandi va kimueka mvandi wumvana diawu ayi nandi wudia.
7 Ayi bawu bayiza zaba ti baba pheni nkua. Diawu batungila meza ma mfigu muingi bavuata.
8 Bo vavioka mua thangu, bawu bayuwa mbembu yi Yave ku paladizu va masika ma builu ava thangu kudiama, ayi bawu basuama Yave kumbusa minti midi ku paladizu.
9 Ayi Yave wutela dibakala: “Adami kuidi widi?”
10 Bosi nandi wumvutudila: “Minu yibe kuwa mbembu’aku, vayi yibe ba mu boma diawu yibe suamina, kibila yibe ba pheni nkua.
11 Vayi Nzambi wunyuvula: “Nani bekukamba ti pheni nkua bedi? Ngie bedia dikundi di nti yikukamba muingi wubika dia?”
12 Dibakala wutuba: “Nkietu no wuphana muingi kaba yama, nandi bephana dikundi muingi yidia, diawu yibe dila.
13 Bosi Yave wuyuvula nkietu: “Kibila mbi ngie bevangila mawu?” Nkietu wumvutudila: “Yibe dila dikundi beni, kibila nyoka nandi bephuna.
14 Bosi Yave wukamba nyoka: “Mu kuvanga diambu adiodio, ngie weka wusingu mu bibulu bioso bantuilanga ayi bibulu bioso binsitu. Ngie wunkuiza kokubukanga va tsi, ayi bidia biaku binkuiza ba mbumbungu yi ntoto.
15 Ayi yinkuiza vanga ngie ayi nkietu luba kimbeni, nkun’aku ayi nkuna wu nkietu mvandi wunkuiza ba kimbeni. Nkuna wu nkietu wala kosumuna ntu’aku ayi ngiewu wala kunlueka va kikodi.”
16 Nandi wukamba kuidi nkietu: “Ngie wunkuiza viokila mu mambu mawombo maphasi bo wumba buemba, ayi mu thangu yi kubuta ngie wunkuiza monanga beni mianga. Ayi wala banga beni phuila yi kuba na nnuni’aku ayi nandi wunkuiza kuyadila.
17 Nzambi wukamba Adami: “Mu kumona ti ngie bekuwila nkazi’aku, ayi bedia dikundi di nti yikuvanina nsua awuwu: ‘Bika kudia diawu,’ ntoto weka wusingu mu kibila kiaku. Ayi ngie wunkuiza vanganga bisalu bingolo bilumbu bioso muingi wubaka ki kudia.
18 Ntoto wunkuiza mena zitsendi ayi bititi bimbi, ayi ngie wunkuiza dianga meza.
19 Vankuiza tombulu ngie kuvanga kisalu kingolo muingi wubaka ki kudia nati wala vutuka mu ntoto, kibila ngie widi mbumbungu yi ntoto ayi muawu wala vutuka.”
20 Bosi Adami wuvana nkazi’andi dizina Eva, kibila nandi wunkuiza ba ngudi yi batu boso va ntoto.
21 Ayi Yave wuvangila Adami ayi Eva bikhutu bikula, mu kusadila nkanda wu bibulu.
22 Bosi Yave wutuba: “Buabu, mutu weka buka befu mu matedi kuzaba mamboti ayi mambi. Diawu, muingi nandi kabika kudia dikundi di nti wu luzingu ayi kazinga mvu ka mvu,—”
23 Yave wuba kukisa ku Edeni muingi batona kuvata bikunusu mu ntoto wo bavangulu.
24 Mu phila ayoyo, nandi wuba kuka ayi wutula ku khonzu leste yi Edeni zikerubim ayi mbedi yidi mbazu yaba tatamana kudiengila va khotolo muingi kukieba nti wu luzingu.
