Genesis 3
1 The serpent was more cunning than any of the other wild animals that the Lord God had made. He asked Eve, “Did God really say that you can't eat fruit from every tree in the garden?”
Ora a serpente era mais astuta que todas as alimárias do campo que o Senhor Deus tinha feito. E esta disse à mulher: É assim que Deus disse: Não comereis de toda a árvore do jardim?
2 Eve replied to the serpent, “We can eat from the trees in the garden, but not the fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden.
E disse a mulher à serpente: Do fruto das árvores do jardim comeremos,
3 God told us, ‘You mustn't eat from that tree, or even touch it, otherwise you'll die.’”
Mas do fruto da árvore que está no meio do jardim, disse Deus: Não comereis dele, nem nele tocareis para que não morrais.
4 “You certainly won't die,” the serpent told Eve.
Então a serpente disse à mulher: Certamente não morrereis.
5 “It's because God knows that as soon as you eat it, you'll see things differently, and you'll be like God, knowing both what is good and what is evil.”
Porque Deus sabe que no dia em que dele comerdes se abrirão os vossos olhos, e sereis como Deus, sabendo o bem e o mal.
6 Eve saw that the fruit of the tree appeared good to eat. It looked very attractive. She really wanted it so she could become wise. So she took some of its fruit and ate it, and she gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it too.
E viu a mulher que aquela árvore era boa para se comer, e agradável aos olhos, e árvore desejável para dar entendimento; tomou do seu fruto, e comeu, e deu também a seu marido consigo, e ele comeu.
7 Immediately they saw everything differently and realized they were naked. So they sewed fig leaves together to cover themselves up.
Então foram abertos os olhos de ambos, e conheceram que estavam nus; e coseram folhas de figueira, e fizeram para si aventais.
8 Later they heard the Lord walking in the garden in the evening when the breeze was blowing. Adam and Eve went and hid out of sight of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
E ouviram a voz do Senhor Deus, que passeava no jardim pela viração do dia: e escondeu-se Adão e sua mulher da presença do Senhor Deus, entre as árvores do jardim.
9 The Lord God called out to Adam, “Where are you?”
E chamou o Senhor Deus a Adão, e disse-lhe: Onde estás?
10 “I heard you walking in the garden and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid,” he replied.
E ele disse: Ouvi a tua voz soar no jardim, e temi, porque estava nú, e escondi-me.
11 “Who told you that you were naked?” asked the Lord God. “Did you eat fruit from the tree I ordered you not to?”
E Deus disse: Quem te mostrou que estavas nu? Comeste tu da árvore de que te ordenei que não comesses?
12 “It was the woman you gave me who gave me the fruit from the tree, and I ate it,” Adam replied.
Então disse Adão; A mulher que me deste por companheira, ela me deu da árvore, e comi.
13 The Lord God asked Eve, “Why have you done this?” “The serpent tricked me, and so I ate it,” she replied.
E disse o Senhor Deus à mulher: Porque fizeste isto? E disse a mulher A serpente me enganou, e eu comi.
14 Then the Lord God told the serpent, “Because of what you've done, you are cursed more than any of the other animals. You will slide along on your belly and eat dust as long as you live.
Então o Senhor Deus disse à serpente: Porquanto fizeste isto, maldita serás mais que toda a besta, e mais que todos os animais do campo: sobre o teu ventre andarás, e pó comerás todos os dias da tua vida.
15 I will make sure you and your children, and the woman and her children, are enemies. One of her children will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.”
E porei inimizade entre ti e a mulher, e entre a tua semente e a sua semente: esta te ferirá a cabeça, e tu lhe ferirás o calcanhar.
16 He told Eve, “I will make pregnancy much more difficult, and giving birth will be very painful. However, you will still desire your husband, but he will have control over you.”
E à mulher disse: Multiplicarei grandemente a tua dor, e a tua conceição; com dor parirás filhos; e o teu desejo será para o teu marido, e ele te dominará.
17 He told Adam, “Because you did what your wife told you, and ate fruit from the tree after I ordered you, ‘Don't eat fruit from this tree,’ the ground is now cursed because of you. You will have to work painfully hard to grow food from it throughout your whole life.
E a Adão disse: Porquanto deste ouvidos à voz de tua mulher, e comeste da árvore de que te ordenei, dizendo: Não comerás dela: maldita é a terra por causa de ti; com dor comerás dela todos os dias da tua vida.
18 It will grow thorns and thistles for you, and you will have to eat wild plants.
Espinhos, e cardos também, te produzirá; e comerás a erva do campo.
19 You will have to sweat to grow enough food to eat until you die and return to the ground. For you were made from dust and you will return to dust.”
No suor do teu rosto comerás o teu pão, até que te tornes à terra; porque dela foste tomado: porquanto és pó, e em pó te tornarás.
20 Adam named his wife Eve, because she was to be the mother of all human beings.
E chamou Adão o nome de sua mulher, Eva; porquanto ela era a mãe de todos os viventes.
21 The Lord God made Adam and Eve clothes from animal skins and dressed them.
E fez o Senhor Deus a Adão e a sua mulher túnicas de peles, e os vestiu.
22 Then the Lord God observed, “Look, the human beings have become like one of us, knowing both what is good and what is evil. Now if they take the fruit from the tree of life and eat it, then they'll live forever!”
Então disse o Senhor Deus: Eis que o homem é como um de Nós, sabendo o bem e o mal; ora, pois, para que não estenda a sua mão, e tome também da árvore da vida, e coma e viva eternamente:
23 So the Lord God expelled them from the Garden of Eden. He sent Adam to cultivate the ground from which he'd been made.
O Senhor Deus, pois, o enviou fora do jardim do Éden, para lavrar a terra de que fôra tomado.
24 After he drove them out, the Lord God placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden angels and a sword that flashed in every direction. They were to prevent access to the tree of life.
E havendo lançado fora o homem, pôs cherubins ao oriente do jardim do Éden, e uma espada inflamada que andava ao redor, para guardar o caminho da árvore da vida.
