Genesis 3
1 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?’”
Sed et serpens erat callidior cunctis animantibus terræ quæ fecerat Dominus Deus. Qui dixit ad mulierem: Cur præcepit vobis Deus ut non comederetis de omni ligno Paradisi?
2 The woman answered the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden,
Cui respondit mulier: De fructu lignorum, quæ sunt in Paradiso, vescimur:
3 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.’”
de fructu vero ligni, quod est in medio Paradisi, præcepit nobis Deus ne comederemus: et ne tangeremus illud, ne forte moriamur.
4 “You will not surely die,” the serpent told her.
Dixit autem serpens ad mulierem: Nequaquam morte moriemini.
5 “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.”
Scit enim Deus quod in quocumque die comederitis ex eo, aperientur oculi vestri: et eritis sicut dii, scientes bonum et malum.
6 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.
Vidit igitur mulier quod bonum esset lignum ad vescendum, et pulchrum oculis, aspectuque delectabile: et tulit de fructu illius, et comedit: deditque viro suo, qui comedit.
7 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.
Et aperti sunt oculi amborum: cumque cognovissent se esse nudos, consuerunt folia ficus, et fecerunt sibi perizomata.
8 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.
Et cum audissent vocem Domini Dei deambulantis in Paradiso ad auram post meridiem, abscondit se Adam et uxor eius a facie Domini Dei in medio ligni Paradisi.
9 But the LORD God called out to the man, “Where are you?”
Vocavitque Dominus Deus Adam, et dixit ei: Ubi es?
10 “I heard Your voice in the garden,” he replied, “and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid myself.”
Qui ait: Vocem tuam audivi in Paradiso: et timui, eo quod nudus essem, et abscondi me.
11 “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?”
Cui dixit: Quis enim indicavit tibi quod nudus esses, nisi quod ex ligno de quo præceperam tibi ne comederes, comedisti?
12 And the man answered, “The woman whom You gave me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
Dixitque Adam: Mulier, quam dedisti mihi sociam, dedit mihi de ligno, et comedi.
13 Then the LORD God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” “The serpent deceived me,” she replied, “and I ate.”
Et dixit Dominus Deus ad mulierem: Quare hoc fecisti? Quæ respondit: Serpens decepit me, et comedi.
14 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.
Et ait Dominus Deus ad serpentem: Quia fecisti hoc, maledictus es inter omnia animantia, et bestias terræ: super pectus tuum gradieris, et terram comedes cunctis diebus vitæ tuæ.
15 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.”
Inimicitias ponam inter te et mulierem, et semen tuum et semen illius: ipsa conteret caput tuum, et tu insidiaberis calcaneo eius.
16 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.”
Mulieri quoque dixit: Multiplicabo ærumnas tuas, et conceptus tuos: in dolore paries filios, et sub viri potestate eris, et ipse dominabitur tui.
17 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.
Adæ vero dixit: Quia audisti vocem uxoris tuæ, et comedisti de ligno, ex quo, præceperam tibi, ne comederes, maledicta terra in opere tuo: in laboribus comedes ex ea cunctis diebus vitæ tuæ.
18 Both thorns and thistles it will yield for you, and you will eat the plants of the field.
Spinas et tribulos germinabit tibi, et comedes herbam terræ.
19 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.”
In sudore vultus tui vesceris pane, donec revertaris in terram de qua sumptus es: quia pulvis es, et in pulverem reverteris.
20 And Adam named his wife Eve, because she would be the mother of all the living.
Et vocavit Adam nomen uxoris suæ, Heva: eo quod mater esset cunctorum viventium.
21 And the LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and He clothed them.
Fecit quoque Dominus Deus Adæ et uxori eius tunicas pelliceas, et induit eos:
22 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...”
Et ait: Ecce Adam quasi unus ex nobis factus est, sciens bonum et malum: nunc ergo ne forte mittat manum suam, et sumat etiam de ligno vitæ, et comedat, et vivat in æternum.
23 Therefore the LORD God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken.
Et emisit eum Dominus Deus de paradiso voluptatis, ut operaretur terram de qua sumptus est.
24 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.
Eiecitque Adam: et collocavit ante paradisum voluptatis Cherubim, et flammeum gladium, atque versatilem, ad custodiendam viam ligni vitæ.
