< Genesis 3 >

1 Now the serpent was more subtle than any of the beasts of the earth which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman: Why hath God commanded you, that you should not eat of every tree of paradise?
ヱホバ神の造りたまひし野の生物の中に蛇最も狡猾し蛇婦に言ひけるは神眞に汝等園の諸の樹の果は食ふべからずと言たまひしや
2 And the woman answered him, saying: Of the fruit of the trees that are in paradise we do eat:
婦蛇に言けるは我等園の樹の果を食ふことを得
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of paradise, God hath commanded us that we should not eat; and that we should not touch it, lest perhaps we die.
然ど園の中央に在樹の果實をば神汝等之を食ふべからず又之に捫るべからず恐は汝等死んと言給へり
4 And the serpent said to the woman: No, you shall not die the death.
蛇婦に言けるは汝等必らず死る事あらじ
5 For God doth know that in what day soever you shall eat thereof, your eyes shall be opened: and you shall be as Gods, knowing good and evil.
神汝等が之を食ふ日には汝等の目開け汝等神の如くなりて善惡を知に至るを知りたまふなりと
6 And the woman saw that the tree was good to eat, and fair to the eyes, and delightful to behold: and she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave to her husband who did eat.
婦樹を見ば食に善く目に美麗しく且智慧からんが爲に慕はしき樹なるによりて遂に其果實を取て食ひ亦之を己と偕なる夫に與へければ彼食へり
7 And the eyes of them both were opened: and when they perceived themselves to be naked, they sewed together fig leaves, and made themselves aprons.
是において彼等の目倶に開て彼等其裸體なるを知り乃ち無花果樹の葉を綴て裳を作れり
8 And when they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in paradise at the afternoon air, Adam and his wife hid themselves from the face of the Lord God, amidst the trees of paradise.
彼等園の中に日の清涼き時分歩みたまふヱホバ神の聲を聞しかばアダムと其妻即ちヱホバ神の面を避て園の樹の間に身を匿せり
9 And the Lord God called Adam, and said to him: Where art thou?
ヱホバ神アダムを召て之に言たまひけるは汝は何處にをるや
10 And he said: I heard thy voice in paradise; and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.
彼いひけるは我園の中に汝の聲を聞き裸體なるにより懼れて身を匿せりと
11 And he said to him: And who hath told thee that thou wast naked, but that thou hast eaten of the tree whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat?
ヱホバ言たまひけるは誰が汝の裸なるを汝に告しや汝は我が汝に食ふなかれと命じたる樹の果を食ひたりしや
12 And Adam said: The woman, whom thou gavest me to be my companion, gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
アダム言けるは汝が與て我と偕ならしめたまひし婦彼其樹の果實を我にあたへたれば我食へりと
13 And the Lord God said to the woman: Why hast thou done this? And she answered: The serpent deceived me, and I did eat.
ヱホバ神婦に言たまひけるは汝がなしたる此事は何ぞや婦言けるは蛇我を誘惑して我食へりと
14 And the Lord God said to the serpent: Because thou hast done this thing, thou art cursed among all cattle, and beasts of the earth: upon thy breast shalt thou go, and earth shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.
ヱホバ神蛇に言たまひけるは汝是を爲たるに因て汝は諸の家畜と野の諸の獸よりも勝りて詛はる汝は腹行て一生の間塵を食ふべし
15 I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.
又我汝と婦の間および汝の苗裔と婦の苗裔の間に怨恨を置ん彼は汝の頭を碎き汝は彼の踵を碎かん
16 To the woman also he said: I will multiply thy sorrows, and thy conceptions: in sorrow shalt thou bring forth children, and thou shalt be under thy husband’s power, and he shall have dominion over thee.
又婦に言たまひけるは我大に汝の懷姙の劬勞を増すべし汝は苦みて子を產ん又汝は夫をしたひ彼は汝を治めん
17 And to Adam he said: Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat, cursed is the earth in thy work; with labour and toil shalt thou eat thereof all the days of thy life.
又アダムに言たまひけるは汝その妻の言を聽て我が汝に命じて食ふべからずと言たる樹の果を食ひしに縁て土は汝のために詛はる汝は一生のあひだ勞苦て其より食を得ん
18 Thorns and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herbs of the earth.
土は荊棘と薊とを汝のために生ずべしまた汝は野の草蔬を食ふべし
19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread till thou return to the earth, out of which thou wast taken: for dust thou art, and into dust thou shalt return.
汝は面に汗して食物を食ひ終に土に歸らん其は其中より汝は取れたればなり汝は塵なれば塵に皈るべきなりと
20 And Adam called the name of his wife Eve: because she was the mother of all the living.
アダム其妻の名をヱバと名けたり其は彼は群の生物の母なればなり
21 And the Lord God made for Adam and his wife, garments of skins, and clothed them.
ヱホバ神アダムと其妻のために皮衣を作りて彼等に衣せたまへり
22 And he said: Behold Adam is become as one of us, knowing good and evil: now, therefore, lest perhaps he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever.
ヱホバ神曰たまひけるは視よ夫人我等の一の如くなりて善惡を知る然ば恐くは彼其手を舒べ生命の樹の果實をも取りて食ひ限無生んと
23 And the Lord God sent him out of the paradise of pleasure, to till the earth from which he was taken.
ヱホバ神彼をエデンの園よりいだし其取て造られたるところの土を耕さしめたまへり
24 And he cast out Adam; and placed before the paradise of pleasure Cherubims, and a flaming sword, turning every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
斯神其人を逐出しエデンの園の東にケルビムと自から旋轉る焔の劍を置て生命の樹の途を保守りたまふ
