1 Mosebog 3
1 Og Slangen var træskere end alle vilde Dyr paa Marken, hvilke Gud Herren havde gjort; og den sagde til Kvinden: Mon Gud skulde have sagt: I maa ikke æde af hvert Træ i Haven?
Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field that the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden?’”
2 Da sagde Kvinden til Slangen: Vi maa æde af Havens Træers Frugt;
The woman answered the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden,
3 men om det Træs Frugt, som er midt i Haven, sagde Gud: Æder ikke deraf og rører ikke derved, at I ikke skulle dø.
but about the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘You must not eat of it or touch it, or you will die.’”
4 Da sagde Slangen til Kvinden: I skulle ikke dø Døden;
“You will not surely die,” the serpent told her.
5 men Gud ved, at hvilken Dag I æde deraf, da skulle eders Øjne oplades, og I skulle blive ligesom Gud og kende godt og ondt.
“For God knows that in the day you eat of it, your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
6 Og Kvinden saa, at Træet var godt at æde af, og at det var lysteligt at se til og et ønskeligt Træ til at faa Forstand af, og hun tog af dets Frugt og aad; og hun gav ogsaa sin Mand med sig, og han aad.
When the woman saw that the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eyes, and that it was desirable for obtaining wisdom, she took the fruit and ate it. She also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate it.
7 Da oplodes begges Øjne, og de kendte, at de vare nøgne, og de hæftede Figenblade sammen og gjorde sig Bælter.
And the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; so they sewed together fig leaves and made coverings for themselves.
8 Og de hørte Gud Herrens Røst, som gik i Haven, der Dagen blev sval; da skjulte Adam og hans Hustru sig for Gud Herrens Ansigt iblandt Træerne i Haven.
Then the man and his wife heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the breeze of the day, and they hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.
9 Og Gud Herren kaldte ad Adam og sagde til ham: Hvor er du?
But the LORD God called out to the man, “Where are you?”
10 Og han sagde: Jeg hørte din Røst i Haven og frygtede; thi jeg var nøgen, og jeg skjulte mig.
“I heard Your voice in the garden,” he replied, “and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid myself.”
11 Og han sagde: Hvo gav dig til Kende, at du var nøgen? har du ædet af det Træ, om hvilket jeg bød dig, at du skulde ikke æde deraf?
“Who told you that you were naked?” asked the LORD God. “Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?”
12 Og Adam sagde: Kvinden, som du gav til at være hos mig, hun gav mig af Træet, og jeg aad.
And the man answered, “The woman whom You gave me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
13 Da sagde Gud Herren til Kvinden: Hvi har du gjort dette? Og Kvinden sagde: Slangen forførte mig, og jeg aad.
Then the LORD God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” “The serpent deceived me,” she replied, “and I ate.”
14 Da sagde Gud Herren til Slangen: Efterdi du gjorde dette, da vær forbandet fremfor alt Kvæget og fremfor alle vilde Dyr paa Marken; du skal gaa paa din Bug og æde Støv alle dit Livs Dage.
So the LORD God said to the serpent: “Because you have done this, cursed are you above all livestock and every beast of the field! On your belly will you go, and dust you will eat, all the days of your life.
15 Og jeg vil sætte Fjendskab imellem dig og imellem Kvinden og imellem din Sæd og imellem hendes Sæd; den skal sønderknuse dit Hoved, men du skal sønderknuse hans Hæl.
And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.”
16 Til Kvinden sagde han: Jeg vil meget mangfoldiggøre din Kummer og din Undfangelse, med Smerte skal du føde Børn; og din Attraa skal være til din Mand, men han skal herske over dig.
To the woman He said: “I will sharply increase your pain in childbirth; in pain you will bring forth children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.”
17 Og til Adam sagde han: Efterdi du lød din Hustrus Røst og aad af det Træ, om hvilket jeg bød dig og sagde: Du skal ikke æde deraf, da være Jorden forbandet for din Skyld, med Kummer skal du æde deraf alle dit Livs Dage.
And to Adam He said: “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you not to eat, cursed is the ground because of you; through toil you will eat of it all the days of your life.
18 Og den skal bære dig Torn og Tidsel, og du skal æde Urter paa Marken.
Both thorns and thistles it will yield for you, and you will eat the plants of the field.
19 I dit Ansigts Sved skal du æde dit Brød, indtil du bliver til Jord igen, thi deraf er du tagen; thi du er Støv, og du skal blive til Støv igen.
By the sweat of your brow you will eat your bread, until you return to the ground— because out of it were you taken. For dust you are, and to dust you shall return.”
20 Og Adam kaldte sin Hustrus Navn Eva, thi hun er bleven alle levendes Moder.
And Adam named his wife Eve, because she would be the mother of all the living.
21 Og Gud Herren gjorde Adam og hans Hustru Kjortler af Skind og iførte dem.
And the LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and He clothed them.
22 Og Gud Herren sagde: Se, Adam er bleven som en af os til at kende godt og ondt; men nu, paa det han ikke skal udrække sin Haand og tage ogsaa af Livsens Træ og æde og leve evindeligen:
Then the LORD God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil. And now, lest he reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever...”
23 da forviste Gud Herren ham af Edens Have til at dyrke Jorden, som han var tagen af.
Therefore the LORD God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken.
24 Og han drev Mennesket ud og satte Keruber Østen for Edens Have med et blinkende Sværd, som vendte sig hid og did, til at vogte Vejen til Livsens Træ.
So He drove out the man and stationed cherubim on the east side of the Garden of Eden, along with a whirling sword of flame to guard the way to the tree of life.
