1 Mosebog 3
1 Men Slangen var træskere end alle Markens andre Dyr, som Gud HERREN havde gjort og den sagde til Kvinden: »Mon Gud virkelig ham sagt: I maa ikke spise af noget Træ i Haven?«
Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made: and he said to the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
2 Kvinden svarede: »Vi har Lov at spise af Frugten paa Havens Træer;
And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
3 kun af Frugten fra Træet midt i Haven, sagde Gud, maa I ikke spise, ja, I maa ikke røre derved, thi saa skal I dø!«
But of the fruit of the tree which [is] in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
4 Da sagde Slangen til Kvinden: »I skal ingenlunde dø;
And the serpent said to the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
5 men Gud ved, at naar I spiser deraf, aabnes eders Øjne, saa I blive som Gud til at kende godt og ondt!«
For God doth know, that in the day ye eat of it, then your eyes shall be opened: and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
6 Kvinden blev nu var, at Træet var godt at spise af, en Lyst for Øjnene og godt at faa Forstand af; og hun tog af dets Frugt og spiste og gav ogsaa sin Mand, der stod hos hende, og han spiste.
And when the woman saw that the tree [was] good for food, and that it [was] pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make [one] wise; she took of its fruit, and ate, and gave also to her husband with her, and he ate.
7 Da aabnedes begges Øjne, og de kendte, at de var nøgne. Derfor syede de Figenblade sammen og bandt dem om sig.
And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they [were] naked: and they sewed fig-leaves together, and made for themselves aprons.
8 Da Dagen blev sval, hørte de Gud HERREN vandre i Haven, og Adam og hans Hustru skjulte sig for ham inde mellem Havens Træer.
And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.
9 Da kaldte Gud HERREN paa Adam og raabte: »Hvor er du?«
And the LORD God called to Adam, and said to him, Where [art] thou?
10 Han svarede: »Jeg hørte dig i Haven og blev angst, fordi jeg var nøgen, og saa skjulte jeg mig!«
And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden: and I was afraid, because I [was] naked; and I hid myself.
11 Da sagde han: »Hvem fortalte dig, at du var nøgen. Mon du har spist af det Træ, jeg sagde, du ikke maatte spise af?«
And he said, Who told thee that thou [wast] naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee, that thou shouldest not eat?
12 Adam svarede: »Kvinden, som du satte ved min Side, gav mig af Træet, og saa spiste jeg.«
And the man said, The woman, whom thou gavest [to be] with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.
13 Da sagde Gud HERREN til Kvinde: »Hvad har du gjort!« Kvinden svarede: »Slangen forførte mig, og saa spiste jeg.«
And the LORD God said to the woman, What [is] this [that] thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I ate.
14 Da sagde Gud HERREN til Slangen: »Fordi du har gjort dette, være du forbandet blandt al Kvæget og blandt alle Markens Dyr! Paa din Bug skal du krybe, og Støv skal du æde alle dit Livs Dage!
And the LORD God said to the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou [art] cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field: upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
15 Jeg sætter Fjendskab mellem dig og Kvinden, mellem din Sæd og hendes Sæd; den skal knuse dit Hoved, og du skal hugge den i Hælen!«
And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed: it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
16 Til Kvinden sagde han: »Jeg vil meget mangfoldiggøre dit Svangerskabs Møje; med Smerte skal du føde Børn; men til din Mand skal din Attraa være, og han skal herske over dig!«
To the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children: and thy desire [shall be] to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
17 Og til Adam sagde han: »Fordi du lyttede til din Hustrus Tale og spiste af Træet, som jeg sagde, du ikke maatte spise af, skal Jorden være forbandet for din Skyld; med Møje skal du skaffe dig Føde af den alle dit Livs Dage;
And to Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed [is] the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat [of] it all the days of thy life;
18 Torn og Tidsel skal den bære dig, og Markens Urter skal være din Føde;
Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
19 i dit Ansigts Sved skal du spise dit Brød, indtil du vender tilbage til Jorden; thi af den er du taget; ja, Støv er du, og til Støv skal du vende tilbage!«
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou shalt return to the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou [art], and to dust shalt thou return.
20 Men Adam kaldte sin Hustru Eva, thi hun blev Moder til alt levende.
And Adam called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.
21 Derpaa gjorde Gud HERREN Skindkjortler til Adam og hans Hustru og klædte dem dermed.
For Adam also and for his wife the LORD God made coats of skins, and clothed them.
22 Men Gud HERREN sagde: »Se, Mennesket er blevet som en af os til at kende godt og ondt. Nu skal han ikke række Haanden ud og tage ogsaa af Livets Træ og spise og leve evindelig!«
And the LORD God said, Behold, the man hath become as one of us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he should put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
23 Saa forviste Gud HERREN ham fra Edens Have, for at han skulde dyrke Jorden, som han var taget af;
Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.
24 og han drev Mennesket ud, og østen for Edens Have satte han Keruberne med det glimtende Flammesværd til at vogte Vejen til Livets Træ.
So he drove out the man: and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
