Genesis 3
1 However, the serpent was more crafty than any of the creatures of the earth that the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Why has God instructed you, that you should not eat from every tree of Paradise?”
Porém a serpente era astuta, mais que todos os animais do campo que o SENHOR Deus havia feito. E ela disse à mulher: Deus vos disse: Não comais de toda árvore do jardim?
2 The woman responded to him: “From the fruit of the trees which are in Paradise, we eat.
E a mulher respondeu à serpente: Do fruto das árvores do jardim podemos comer;
3 Yet truly, from the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of Paradise, God has instructed us that we should not eat, and that we should not touch it, lest perhaps we may die.”
mas do fruto da árvore que está no meio do jardim, Deus disse: Não comereis dele, nem o tocareis, para que não morrais.
4 Then the serpent said to the woman: “By no means will you die a death.
Então a serpente disse à mulher: Não morrereis;
5 For God knows that, on whatever day you will eat from it, your eyes will be opened; and you will be like gods, knowing good and evil.”
Mas Deus sabe que no dia que comerdes dele, vossos olhos serão abertos, e sereis como deuses, sabendo o bem e o mal.
6 And so the woman saw that the tree was good to eat, and beautiful to the eyes, and delightful to consider. And she took from its fruit, and she ate. And she gave to her husband, who ate.
E a mulher viu que a árvore era boa para se comer, agradável aos olhos, e árvore desejável para se obter conhecimento. E ela tomou de seu fruto, e comeu; e deu também ao seu marido com ela, e ele comeu.
7 And the eyes of them both were opened. And when they realized themselves to be naked, they joined together fig leaves and made coverings for themselves.
E foram abertos os olhos de ambos, e conheceram que estavam nus. Então coseram folhas de figueira, e fizeram para si aventais.
8 And when they had heard the voice of the Lord God taking a walk in Paradise in the afternoon breeze, Adam and his wife hid themselves from the face of the Lord God in the midst of the trees of Paradise.
E ouviram a voz do SENHOR Deus, que passeava no jardim à brisa do dia; e o homem e sua mulher esconderam-se da presença do SENHOR Deus entre as árvores do jardim.
9 And the Lord God called Adam and said to him: “Where are you?”
E o SENHOR Deus chamou ao homem, e lhe disse: “Onde estás?
10 And he said, “I heard your voice in Paradise, and I was afraid, because I was naked, and so I hid myself.”
E ele respondeu: “Ouvi tua voz no jardim, e tive medo, porque estava nu; e me escondi”.
11 He said to him, “Then who told you that you were naked, if you have not eaten of the tree from which I instructed you that you should not eat?”
E disse-lhe: “Quem te ensinou que estavas nu? Comeste da árvore de que te mandei que não comesses?”
12 And Adam said, “The woman, whom you gave to me as a companion, gave to me from the tree, and I ate.”
E o homem respondeu: “A mulher que me deste por companheira me deu da árvore, e eu comi”.
13 And the Lord God said to the woman, “Why have you done this?” And she responded, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
Então o SENHOR Deus disse à mulher: “Por que fizeste isto?” E a mulher disse: “A serpente me enganou, e comi”.
14 And the Lord God said to the serpent: “Because you have done this, you are cursed among all living things, even the wild beasts of the earth. Upon your breast shall you travel, and the ground shall you eat, all the days of your life.
E o SENHOR Deus disse à serpente: “Porque fizeste isto, maldita serás entre todos os animais selvagens e entre todos os animais do campo; sobre teu ventre andarás, e pó comerás todos os dias da tua vida.
15 I will put enmities between you and the woman, between your offspring and her offspring. She will crush your head, and you will lie in wait for her heel.”
E porei inimizade entre ti e a mulher, e entre tua descendência e a descendência dela; esta te ferirá a cabeça, e tu lhe ferirás o calcanhar”.
16 To the woman, he also said: “I will multiply your labors and your conceptions. In pain shall you give birth to sons, and you shall be under your husband’s power, and he shall have dominion over you.”
E para a mulher disse: “Multiplicarei grandemente as tuas dores e teus sofrimentos de parto; com dor darás à luz filhos; e o teu desejo será para o teu marido, e ele te dominará”.
17 Yet truly, to Adam, he said: “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten of the tree, from which I instructed you that you should not eat, cursed is the land that you work. In hardship shall you eat from it, all the days of your life.
E ao homem disse: “Porque deste ouvidos à voz de tua mulher, e comeste da árvore de que te mandei dizendo, ‘Não comerás dela’, maldita será a terra por causa de ti; com dor comerás dela todos os dias da tua vida;
18 Thorns and thistles shall it produce for you, and you shall eat the plants of the earth.
Espinhos e cardos te produzirá, e comerás erva do campo.
19 By the sweat of your face shall you eat bread, until you return to the earth from which you were taken. For dust you are, and unto dust you shall return.”
No suor do teu rosto comerás o pão até que voltes à terra, porque dela foste tomado; porque pó és, e ao pó voltarás”.
20 And Adam called the name of his wife, ‘Eve,’ because she was the mother of all the living.
E chamou o homem o nome de sua mulher, Eva; porquanto ela era mãe de todos o viventes.
21 The Lord God also made for Adam and his wife garments from skins, and he clothed them.
E o SENHOR Deus fez ao homem e à sua mulher túnicas de peles, e os vestiu.
22 And he said: “Behold, Adam has become like one of us, knowing good and evil. Therefore, now perhaps he may put forth his hand and also take from the tree of life, and eat, and live in eternity.”
E disse o SENHOR Deus: Eis que o homem é como um de Nos sabendo o bem e o mal; agora, pois, para que não estenda sua mão, e tome também da árvore da vida, e coma, e viva para sempre:
23 And so the Lord God sent him away from the Paradise of enjoyment, in order to work the earth from which he was taken.
E tirou-o o SENHOR do jardim de Éden, para que lavrasse a terra de que foi tomado.
24 And he cast out Adam. And in front of the Paradise of enjoyment, he placed the Cherubim with a flaming sword, turning together, to guard the way to the tree of life.
Lançou, pois, fora ao homem, e pôs ao oriente do jardim de Éden querubins, e uma espada acesa que se revolvia a todos os lados, para guardar o caminho da árvore da vida.
