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?”
Mia basa banda fo LAMATUALAIN tao sia raefafoꞌ ia, mengge a nahine pepeko-lelekoꞌ lenaꞌ basa e. Lao esa, hambu mengge sa natane inaꞌ a nae, “Tebꞌe, do? Lamatualain ai hei nae, ‘Afiꞌ mia hau boaꞌ mana sia osi ia, to?’”
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.
Inaꞌ a nataa nae, “Hokoꞌ! Hai bole mia! Te akaꞌ a hau esa sia osi a taladꞌa na, Lamatualain ai hai fo afiꞌ mia. Ana nae hai afiꞌ mia, ma afiꞌ nggama boa na, te hokoꞌ naa, hai mate.”
3 God told us, ‘You mustn't eat from that tree, or even touch it, otherwise you'll die.’”
4 “You certainly won't die,” the serpent told Eve.
Te mengge a nataa nae, “Weh! Naa, nda tebꞌe sa! Hei nda mate sa.
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.”
Lamatualain memaꞌ ai taꞌo naa, huu Ana bubꞌuluꞌ mete ma hei mia hau a boa na, naa, hei mihine bee maloleꞌ ma bee deꞌulakaꞌ, onaꞌ Eni boe.”
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.
Boe ma, inaꞌ a nita hau a malole na seli, no boa na onaꞌ maladꞌaꞌ. Ana dꞌua nae, “Mete ma au ua boaꞌ ia, neꞌo au uhine.” Basa ma, ana etu boaꞌ naa, de naa. Ma nendi fee sao na, de ana o naa boe.
7 Immediately they saw everything differently and realized they were naked. So they sewed fig leaves together to cover themselves up.
Ara raa basa ma, aiboiꞌ ma rahine rae sira maꞌaholaꞌ. Naa de, ara nato hau roo fo babꞌata ao nara.
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.
Bꞌobꞌo na ma, ara rena LAMATUALAIN lao-laoꞌ sia osi a. De ara keke mia hau sa deaꞌ, naa fo, LAMATUALAIN nda nita se sa.
9 The Lord God called out to Adam, “Where are you?”
Te LAMATUALAIN noꞌe touꞌ a nae, “Adam! Ho sia bee?”
10 “I heard you walking in the garden and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid,” he replied.
Touꞌ a nataa nae, “Au rena hara Ma sia ia. Te au mae, huu au maꞌaholaꞌ. Naa de, au keke.”
11 “Who told you that you were naked?” asked the Lord God. “Did you eat fruit from the tree I ordered you not to?”
Boe ma Lamatualain nae, “Seka nafadꞌe oi ho maꞌaholaꞌ? Taꞌo bee? Ho mua hau boaꞌ fo Au aiꞌ a, to?”
12 “It was the woman you gave me who gave me the fruit from the tree, and I ate it,” Adam replied.
Nataa nae, “Inaꞌ ia, fo Lamatualain fee dadꞌi nonoo ngga, ana mana fee au hau boaꞌ a, fo ua!”
13 The Lord God asked Eve, “Why have you done this?” “The serpent tricked me, and so I ate it,” she replied.
Boe ma LAMATUALAIN olaꞌ no inaꞌ a nae, “Ho tao saa, ia?” Nataa nae, “Mengge a mana eꞌedik nala au! Naa de, au ua ma.”
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.
Basa ma, LAMATUALAIN huku-doki mengge a nae, “Huu tatao ma, Au hukun nggo. Mia basa banda ra, akaꞌ a mesaꞌ nggo dai huku-dokiꞌ ia. Mia oras ia losa mate, nodꞌo mendiꞌ a tenda ma, ma mua siaꞌ a rae a.
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.”
Au tao nggo mo inaꞌ ia bamusuꞌ mikindooꞌ a. Hei ruꞌa nggi tititi-nonosi mara o, taꞌo naa boe. Dei fo, tititi-nonosi mara ero atahori ra ei tingga nara. Te inaꞌ a tititi-nonosi na esa, tutu nalutu langga ma.”
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.”
Basa ma, Lamatualain nafadꞌe inaꞌ a nae, “Au fee nggo sususaꞌ naeꞌ leleꞌ muiru, ma bꞌonggi no doidꞌosoꞌ seli. Te taꞌo naa o, ho feꞌe hii-nau mo sao ma. Ma ana mana nauli nggo.”
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.
Boe ma Lamatuaꞌ nafadꞌe touꞌ a nae, “Ho nda tungga Au parenda ngga sa, te tunggaꞌ a sao ma hihii na, de mua hau boaꞌ fo Au aiꞌ a. Naa de Au huku-dokiꞌ nggo boe. Ma Au o huku-doki rae a boe. Mia oras ia losa mate, ho musi tao ues naeꞌ aꞌali rae, fo feꞌe hambu mua na. Naa fo, musodꞌa.
18 It will grow thorns and thistles for you, and you will have to eat wild plants.
Onaꞌ mae ho sela mataꞌ-mataꞌ o, akaꞌ a duri-nggaut a mori.
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.”
De ho musi tao ues naeꞌ, fo rae a fee nggo mua. Ma mbusa ma musi nandali losa ho mate. Au tao nggo mia rae, de mete ma mate nggo, naa, dadꞌi baliꞌ rae.”
20 Adam named his wife Eve, because she was to be the mother of all human beings.
Basa naa ma, Adam babꞌae sao na ‘Hawa’ (sosoa na ‘mana masodꞌa’), huu basa atahori masodꞌaꞌ ra ina na, eni.
21 The Lord God made Adam and Eve clothes from animal skins and dressed them.
Boe ma LAMATUALAIN tao buas mia banda rouꞌ, de seluao neu se.
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!”
Basa ma LAMATUALAIN olaꞌ nae, “Ia naa, atahori rahine bee maloleꞌ ma bee deꞌulakaꞌ, onaꞌ Hita boe. Afiꞌ losa ara o raa boaꞌ mia hau mana fee se rasodꞌa rakandoo.”
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.
Naa de, Ana oi hendiꞌ se mia osi Eden. Ara risiꞌ mamana feaꞌ, de aꞌali rae, fo rasodꞌa mia rae a.
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.
Lamatualain oi basa se ma, Ana denu ate malida Nara mia sorga, fo reu ranea osi seriꞌ rulu. Ara toꞌu tafaꞌ mana mbila onaꞌ ai, de lalaes neu-nema. Lamatualain denu se ena dalaꞌ rala neu, huu Ana nda nau atahori ra reu etu hau boaꞌ mana fee se rasodꞌa rakandoo.
