< Genesis 3 >

1 And the serpent was more crafty than any animal of the field which Jehovah Elohim had made. And it said to the woman, Is it even so, that God has said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
Te vaengah BOEIPA Pathenloh a saii kohong mulhing boeih lakah rhul te tah thaai tih, huta taengah, “Pathen loh, ‘Dum kah thingkung te khat khaw na ca rhoi mahpawh,’ a ti tatak ngawn a?” a ti nah.
2 And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden;
Te dongah huta loh rhul taengah, “Dum thing thaih te ka caak rhoi thai.
3 but of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, God has said, Ye shall not eat of it, and ye shall not touch it, lest ye die.
Tedae Pathen loh, 'Dum laklung kah thing thaih te ca rhoi boeh, taek rhoi boeh, te dongahna duek rhoi ve,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
4 And the serpent said to the woman, Ye will not certainly die;
Tedae rhul loh huta taengah, “Na duek rhoena duek rhoi mahpawh.
5 but God knows that in the day ye eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and ye will be as God, knowing good and evil.
Te te na caak rhoi khohnin ah na mik khaw tueng vetih a thae a then mingnah khaw Pathen bangla na om rhoi ni tila Pathen loh a ming dongah ni,” a ti nah.
6 And the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a pleasure for the eyes, and the tree was to be desired to give intelligence; and she took of its fruit, and ate, and gave also to her husband with her, and he ate.
Huta long khaw caak ham koi thing then la, mik ham khaw hoehhamnah koi laa hmuh. Te vaengaha lungming la om ham thing tea nai. Te dongah a thaih tea loh tiha caak. Te phoeiah a taengkah a va te khawa paek tiha caak.
7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig-leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
Te phoeiah amih rhoi kah mikte bok tueng tih pumtling la a om rhoi tea ming rhoi. Te dongah thaibu hawn te a hui rhoi tih amamih rhoi ham hnilaa saii rhoi.
8 And they heard the voice of Jehovah Elohim, walking in the garden in the cool of the day. And Man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Jehovah Elohim, in the midst of the trees of the garden.
BOEIPA Pathen kah ol tah te khohnin kah khohli neh dum khuiaha caeh te a yaak rhoi. Te dongah Adam neh a yuu tah BOEIPA Pathen mikhmuh kah, dum lamloh thingkung lakli ah thuh uh rhoi.
9 And Jehovah Elohim called to Man, and said to him, Where art thou?
Tedae BOEIPA Pathen loh hlang tongpa tea khue tih a taengah, “Melam na om,” a ti nah.
10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I feared, because I am naked; and I hid myself.
Tongpa loh, “Dum ah na ol ka yaak dae kai pumtling dongah ni ka rhih tih ka thuh,” a ti nah.
11 And he said, Who told thee that thou art naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee not to eat?
Te dongah Boeipa loh, “Nang pumtling ni tila nang taengah ulae aka puen? Caak ham moenih tila nang kan uen thingkung te na caak nama?” a ti nah.
12 And Man said, The woman, whom thou hast given [to be] with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.
Te vaengah tongpa loh, “Huta te kai taengah nan paek coeng ta, anih loh thing te kai taengah m'paek dongah ni ka caak,” a ti nah.
13 And Jehovah Elohim said to the woman, What is this thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent deceived me, and I ate.
Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh huta te, “Hekah he metlamna saii,” a tinah hatah huta loh, “Rhul loh kai n'rhaithi tih ka caak,” a ti nah.
14 And Jehovah Elohim said to the serpent, Because thou hast done this, be thou cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field. On thy belly shalt thou go, and eat dust all the days of thy life.
Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh rhul taengah, “Hetlana saii dongah nang tah rhamsa boeih lakah khaw, kohong kah mulhing boeih lakah khaw, thaephoei thil la na om coeng. Na bung nehna colh vetih na hing tue khuiah laipina caak ni.
15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; he shall crush thy head, and thou shalt crush his heel.
Nang laklo neh huta lakloah khaw, nang kah tiingan laklo neh anih kah tiingan laklo ah khaw, thunkha thunhling ka khueh vetih anih loh na lu ham phop ni. Nang long khaw anih kah khomik te na tuk pah ni,” a ti nah.
16 To the woman he said, I will greatly increase thy travail and thy pregnancy; with pain thou shalt bear children; and to thy husband shall be thy desire, and he shall rule over thee.
Pathen loh huta taengah, “Na thatlohnah neh na rhumpum te ka pungtai rhoela ka pungtai sak ni. Patangnah neh camoena cun ni. Na lungdueknahte na va ham vetih anih loh nang soah n'taemrhai ni,” a ti nah.
17 And to Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed be the ground on thy account; with toil shalt thou eat [of] it all the days of thy life;
Adam te khaw, “Na yuu ol tena hnatang nah. Te dongah, 'Ca boeh ka ti, ' tih nang kan uen lalah, thingkung lamkah tena caak. Te dongah diklai he nang kong ah thae ka phoei thil coeng. Na hing tue khuiah thatlohnah nen ni buh na caak eh.
18 and thorns and thistles shall it yield thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field.
Hling neh lota khaw nang ham daih vetih kohong kah baelhing te na caak ni.
19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, until thou return to the ground: for out of it wast thou taken. For dust thou art; and unto dust shalt thou return.
Na talung kah hlantui loh diklai la na bo sak daengah ni buhna caak eh. Laipi lamkah nang n'loh dongah laipi lana bal van ni,” a ti nah.
20 And Man called his wife's name Eve; because she is the mother of all living.
Te phoeiah Adam yuu te aka hing boeih kah a manu la a om ham dongaha mingte Eve tila a sui.
21 And Jehovah Elohim made Adam and his wife coats of skin, and clothed them.
Te daengah BOEIPA Pathen loh Adam ham neh a yuu ham maehpho angkidung te a saii pah tih amih rhoi te a bai sak.
22 And Jehovah Elohim said, Behold, Man is become as one of us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he stretch out his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever...!
Te phoeiah BOEIPA Pathen loh, “Hlang he a then khawa thae khaw ming ham mamih khuikah pakhat phek la ha om coeng he. Tahaeah a kuta yueng tih hingnah thing khawa loh dongah kumhal hing ham ca lah ve,” a ti.
23 Therefore Jehovah Elohim sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.
Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh anihte Eden dum lamkaha tueih. Te lamkah ni khohmuen aka tawn hama loh.
24 And he drove out Man; and he set the Cherubim, and the flame of the flashing sword, toward the east of the garden of Eden, to guard the way to the tree of life.
Hlang te khawa haek coeng tih hingnah thingkung longpuei aka hung ham cherubim neh hmaitak cunghang aka tinghil te Eden dum kah khothoeng aha khueh.
