< Genesis 3 >

1 Now the snake was wiser than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, Has God truly said that you may not take of the fruit of any tree in the garden?
Ora a serpente era mais astuta que todas as alimarias do campo que o Senhor Deus tinha feito. E esta disse á mulher: É assim que Deus disse: Não comereis de toda a arvore do jardim?
2 And the woman said, We may take of the fruit of the trees in the garden:
E disse a mulher á serpente: Do fructo das arvores do jardim comeremos,
3 But of the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God has said, If you take of it or put your hands on it, death will come to you.
Mas do fructo da arvore que está no meio do jardim, disse Deus: Não comereis d'elle, nem n'elle tocareis para que não morraes.
4 And the snake said, Death will not certainly come to you:
Então a serpente disse á mulher: Certamente não morrereis.
5 For God sees that on the day when you take of its fruit, your eyes will be open, and you will be as gods, having knowledge of good and evil.
Porque Deus sabe que no dia em que d'elle comerdes se abrirão os vossos olhos, e sereis como Deus, sabendo o bem e o mal.
6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and a delight to the eyes, and to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit, and gave it to her husband.
E viu a mulher que aquella arvore era boa para se comer, e agradavel aos olhos, e arvore desejavel para dar intendimento; tomou do seu fructo, e comeu, e deu tambem a seu marido comsigo, e elle comeu.
7 And their eyes were open and they were conscious that they had no clothing and they made themselves coats of leaves stitched together.
Então foram abertos os olhos de ambos, e conheceram que estavam nús; e coseram folhas de figueira, e fizeram para si aventaes.
8 And there came to them the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the evening wind: and the man and his wife went to a secret place among the trees of the garden, away from the eyes of the Lord God.
E ouviram a voz do Senhor Deus, que passeava no jardim pela viração do dia: e escondeu-se Adão e sua mulher da presença do Senhor Deus, entre as arvores do jardim.
9 And the voice of the Lord God came to the man, saying, Where are you?
E chamou o Senhor Deus a Adão, e disse-lhe: Onde estás?
10 And he said, Hearing your voice in the garden I was full of fear, because I was without clothing: and I kept myself from your eyes.
E elle disse: Ouvi a tua voz soar no jardim, e temi, porque estava nú, e escondi-me.
11 And he said, Who gave you the knowledge that you were without clothing? Have you taken of the fruit of the tree which I said you were not to take?
E Deus disse: Quem te mostrou que estavas nú? Comeste tu da arvore de que te ordenei que não comesses?
12 And the man said, The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me the fruit of the tree and I took it.
Então disse Adão; A mulher que me déste por companheira, ella me deu da arvore, e comi.
13 And the Lord God said to the woman, What have you done? And the woman said, I was tricked by the deceit of the snake and I took it.
E disse o Senhor Deus á mulher: Porque fizeste isto? E disse a mulher A serpente me enganou, e eu comi.
14 And the Lord God said to the snake, Because you have done this you are cursed more than all cattle and every beast of the field; you will go flat on the earth, and dust will be your food all the days of your life:
Então o Senhor Deus disse á serpente: Porquanto fizeste isto, maldita serás mais que toda a besta, e mais que todos os animaes do campo: sobre o teu ventre andarás, e pó comerás todos os dias da tua vida.
15 And there will be war between you and the woman and between your seed and her seed: by him will your head be crushed and by you his foot will be wounded.
E porei inimizade entre ti e a mulher, e entre a tua semente e a sua semente: esta te ferirá a cabeça, e tu lhe ferirás o calcanhar.
16 To the woman he said, Great will be your pain in childbirth; in sorrow will your children come to birth; still your desire will be for your husband, but he will be your master.
E á mulher disse: Multiplicarei grandemente a tua dôr, e a tua conceição; com dôr parirás filhos; e o teu desejo será para o teu marido, e elle te dominará.
17 And to Adam he said, Because you gave ear to the voice of your wife and took of the fruit of the tree which I said you were not to take, the earth is cursed on your account; in pain you will get your food from it all your life.
E a Adão disse: Porquanto deste ouvidos á voz de tua mulher, e comeste da arvore de que te ordenei, dizendo: Não comerás d'ella: maldita é a terra por causa de ti; com dôr comerás d'ella todos os dias da tua vida.
18 Thorns and waste plants will come up, and the plants of the field will be your food;
Espinhos, e cardos tambem, te produzirá; e comerás a herva do campo.
19 With the hard work of your hands you will get your bread till you go back to the earth from which you were taken: for dust you are and to the dust you will go back.
No suor do teu rosto comerás o teu pão, até que te tornes á terra; porque d'ella foste tomado: porquanto és pó, e em pó te tornarás.
20 And the man gave his wife the name of Eve because she was the mother of all who have life.
E chamou Adão o nome de sua mulher, Eva; porquanto ella era a mãe de todos os viventes.
21 And the Lord God made for Adam and for his wife coats of skins for their clothing.
E fez o Senhor Deus a Adão e a sua mulher tunicas de pelles, e os vestiu.
22 And the Lord God said, Now the man has become like one of us, having knowledge of good and evil; and now if he puts out his hand and takes of the fruit of the tree of life, he will go on living for ever.
Então disse o Senhor Deus: Eis que o homem é como um de Nós, sabendo o bem e o mal; ora, pois, para que não estenda a sua mão, e tome tambem da arvore da vida, e coma e viva eternamente:
23 So the Lord God sent him out of the garden of Eden to be a worker on the earth from which he was taken.
O Senhor Deus, pois, o enviou fóra do jardim do Eden, para lavrar a terra de que fôra tomado.
24 So he sent the man out; and at the east of the garden of Eden he put winged ones and a flaming sword turning every way to keep the way to the tree of life.
E havendo lançado fóra o homem, poz cherubins ao oriente do jardim do Eden, e uma espada inflammada que andava ao redor, para guardar o caminho da arvore da vida.
