< 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?
Nahay fañahy mandikoatse ze kila karaza-biby namboare’ Iehovà Andria­nañahare an-kivok’ ao ty mereñe. Hoe re amy rakembay: Toe nanao ty hoe hao t’i Andrianañahare: Tsy ikama’ areo ze hatae amy goloboñey ao?
2 And the woman answered him, saying: Of the fruit of the trees that are in paradise we do eat:
Hoe ty natoi’ i rakembay amy mereñey: Azo’ay haneñe o voan-katae amy goloboñeio.
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.
Fe hoe ty nitsaraen’ Añahare i hatae raik’ anteñateña’ i goloboñey: Tsy ihihinana’ areo vaho tsy ho tsapae’ areo, tsy mone hivetrake.
4 And the serpent said to the woman: No, you shall not die the death.
Le hoe ty asa’ i mereñey amy rakembay, Toe tsy hihomake nahareo,
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.
fa arofoanan’ Añahare te hibolanake ty fiha­ino’ areo amy andro ikama’ areo aze le ho hambañ’ aman’ Añahare mahafohiñe ty soa naho ty raty.
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.
Aa naho nioni’ i rakembay te soa kama­eñe i hatae zay, naho naha­sinda am-pihaino naho hatae ­sala­laeñe kanao mampahilala, le ­nampi­pototse ty voa’e naho ­nikama le nanjo­tsoa’e ka t’i vali’e nindre ama’e, vaho nikama re.
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.
Nibeak’ amy zao ty fihaino’ iareo roroe naho naharen­dreke te sambe niboridañe le navitra’ iareo an-­jaitse ty raven-tsakoa vaho nanoa’ iareo kitambe.
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.
Jinanji’ iareo ty fiara­ñanaña’ Iehovà Andria­nañahare, ie nidraidraitse an-goloboñ’ ao naho nitio­tio-drikoñe i àndroy, le nipalitse amo hatae an-goloboñeo indatiy naho i tañanjomba’ey tsy hiatreke am’Iehovà Andrianañahare.
9 And the Lord God called Adam, and said to him: Where art thou?
Le kinanji’ Iehovà Andrianañahare indatiy amy ty hoe: Aia v’iheo?
10 And he said: I heard thy voice in paradise; and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.
Tinoi’e ty hoe: Tsinanoko amy goloboñey irehe, le nihemban-draho fa nibongy vaho nietake.
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?
Le hoe Re: Nivolaña’ ia te ihe ni­halo? Nihinana’o hao i hatae nandra­rako azo tsy ihinanañey?
12 And Adam said: The woman, whom thou gavest me to be my companion, gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
I rakemba natolo’o ho mpiamakoy, hoe indatiy, ie ty nanjotso amako boak’amy hataey vaho nihaneko.
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.
Aa le hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare amy rakembay: Inoñ’ o nanoe’oo? Kinalita’ i mereñey, hoe i rakembay, le nihinan-draho.
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.
Hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare amy mereñey: Amy te ihe nanao zao, le fàtse irehe amy ze kila hare naho ze hene bibin-kivoke. Hilalilaly an-tro’o irehe, le deboke ty ho filintse’o amy ze fonga andro hiveloma’o.
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.
Le hampirafelahieko amy rakembay, naho o tarira’oo amy tarira’ey. Ho demohe’e ty loha’o vaho ho vonotrobohe’o i tomi’ey.
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.
Hoe Re amy rakembay: Ho silofeko ty fioremeña’o, le hanivontivoñe ty fitsongoa’o, t’ie misamak’ anake. Ho fañiriña’o ty vali’o, vaho ie ty hifehe azo.
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.
Le hoe ka Re tamy Dame: Amy te nihaoñe’o i vali’oy vaho nikama’o i hatae nandraràko azoy ami’ty hoe: Ko ikama’o; le ho hotohotoeko ty ama’o o taneo. Le an-kamokorañe ty hikama’o ama’e ze hene andro hiveloma’o.
18 Thorns and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herbs of the earth.
Hitiria’e fatike naho hisatse, le hikamae’o ze tirin-traka am-patrañe ao.
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.
Ami’ty liñe’ o lahara’oo ro hikama’o mahakama ampara’ t’ie himpoly an-debok’ ao; fa tama’e ty nandrambesañ’ azo, lemboke irehe; le mb’an-deboke ty himpolia’o.
20 And Adam called the name of his wife Eve: because she was the mother of all the living.
Natao’ indatiy Haova ty añara’ i vali’ey, amy t’ie ro rene’ ze hene veloñe.
21 And the Lord God made for Adam and his wife, garments of skins, and clothed them.
Namboara’ Iehovà Andria­nañahare saron-kolitse indatiy naho i vali’ey le naombe’e am’iareo.
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.
Le hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare, Ingo te ninjare hoe raik’ aman-tika indatiy, maharendreke ty soa naho ty raty. Aa tsy mone hahiti’e ty taña’e hampipototse amy hataen-kaveloñey ka, hikama’e ho veloñe nainai’e;
23 And the Lord God sent him out of the paradise of pleasure, to till the earth from which he was taken.
le nampiavote’ Iehovà Andriañahare amy goloboñe Edeney re handrokake i tane nandrambesañ’ azey.
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.
Aa le sinoi’e añe indatiy vaho nampijadoñe’e ke­robe reke-pibara nibela niviombioñe ami’ty atiñana’ i goloboñe Edeney higari­tse ty lala’ i hataen-kaveloñey.
