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?
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 And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden;
Cui respondit mulier: De fructu lignorum, quæ sunt in paradiso, vescimur:
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.
de fructu vero ligni, quod est in medio paradisi, præcepit nobis Deus ne comederemus: et ne tangeremus illud, ne forte moriamur.
4 And the serpent said to the woman, Ye will not certainly die;
Dixit autem serpens ad mulierem: Nequaquam morte moriemini.
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.
Scit enim Deus quod in quocumque die comederitis ex eo, aperientur oculi vestri: et eritis sicut dii, scientes bonum et malum.
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.
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 them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig-leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
Et aperti sunt oculi amborum: cumque cognovissent se esse nudos, consuerunt folia ficus, et fecerunt sibi perizomata.
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.
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 And Jehovah Elohim called to Man, and said to him, Where art thou?
Vocavitque Dominus Deus Adam, et dixit ei: Ubi es?
10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I feared, because I am naked; and I hid myself.
Qui ait: Vocem tuam audivi in paradiso: et timui, eo quod nudus essem, et abscondi me.
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?
Cui dixit: Quis enim indicavit tibi quod nudus esses, nisi quod ex ligno de quo præceperam tibi ne comederes, comedisti?
12 And Man said, The woman, whom thou hast given [to be] with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.
Dixitque Adam: Mulier, quam dedisti mihi sociam, dedit mihi de ligno, et comedi.
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.
Et dixit Dominus Deus ad mulierem: Quare hoc fecisti? Quæ respondit: Serpens decepit me, et comedi.
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.
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 thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; he shall crush thy head, and thou shalt crush 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 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.
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 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;
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 and thorns and thistles shall it yield thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field.
Spinas et tribulos germinabit tibi, et comedes herbam terræ.
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.
In sudore vultus tui vesceris pane, donec revertaris in terram de qua sumptus es: quia pulvis es, et in pulverem reverteris.
20 And Man called his wife's name Eve; because she is the mother of all living.
Et vocavit Adam nomen uxoris suæ, Heva: eo quod mater esset cunctorum viventium.
21 And Jehovah Elohim made Adam and his wife coats of skin, and clothed them.
Fecit quoque Dominus Deus Adæ et uxori eius tunicas pelliceas, et induit eos:
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...!
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 Jehovah Elohim sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.
Et emisit eum Dominus Deus de paradiso voluptatis, ut operaretur terram de qua sumptus est.
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.
Eiecitque Adam: et collocavit ante paradisum voluptatis Cherubim, et flammeum gladium, atque versatilem, ad custodiendam viam ligni vitæ.
