< Genesis 3 >

1 Now the serpent was more shrewd than any of the wild animals which God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God really said, 'You shall not eat of any tree of the garden?'"
وَكَانَتِ الْحَيَّةُ أَمْكَرَ وُحُوشِ الْبَرِّيَّةِ الَّتِي صَنَعَهَا الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ، فَسَأَلَتِ الْمَرْأَةَ: «أَحَقّاً أَمَرَكُمَا اللهُ أَلَّا تَأْكُلَا مِنْ جَمِيعِ شَجَرِ الْجَنَّةِ؟»١
2 And the woman said to the serpent, "Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat,
فَأَجَابَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ: «يُمْكِنُنَا أَنْ نَأْكُلَ مِنْ ثَمَرِ الْجَنَّةِ كُلِّهَا،٢
3 but of the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God has said, 'You shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.'"
مَاعَدَا ثَمَرَ الشَّجَرَةِ الَّتِي فِي وَسَطِهَا، فَقَدْ قَالَ اللهُ: لَا تَأْكُلَا مِنْهُ وَلَا تَلْمَسَاهُ وَإلَّا تَمُوتَا».٣
4 The serpent said to the woman, "You won't surely die,
فَقَالَتِ الْحَيَّةُ لِلْمَرْأَةِ: «لَنْ تَمُوتَا،٤
5 for God knows that in the day you eat it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
بَلْ إِنَّ اللهَ يَعْرِفُ أَنَّهُ يَوْمَ تَأْكُلانِ مِنْ ثَمَرِ هَذِهِ الشَّجَرَةِ تَنْفَتِحُ أَعْيُنُكُمَا فَتَصِيرَانِ مِثْلَهُ، قَادِرَيْنِ عَلَى التَّمْيِيزِ بَيْنَ الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ».٥
6 When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit, and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate.
وَعِنْدَمَا شَاهَدَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ أَنَّ الشَّجَرَةَ لَذِيذَةٌ لِلْمَأْكَلِ وَشَهِيَّةٌ لِلْعُيُونِ، وَمُثِيرَةٌ لِلنَّظَرِ قَطَفَتْ مِنْ ثَمَرِهَا وَأَكَلَتْ، ثُمَّ أَعْطَتْ زَوْجَهَا أَيْضاً فَأَكَلَ مَعَهَا،٦
7 The eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked. So they sewed fig leaves together, and made coverings for themselves.
فَانْفَتَحَتْ لِلْحَالِ أَعْيُنُهُمَا، وَأَدْرَكَا أَنَّهُمَا عُرْيَانَانِ، فَخَاطَا لأَنْفُسِهِمَا مَآزِرَ مِنْ أَوْرَاقِ التِّينِ.٧
8 They heard the voice of God walking in the garden during the breeze of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of God among the trees of the garden.
ثُمَّ سَمِعَ الزَّوْجَانِ صَوْتَ الرَّبِّ الإِلَهِ وَهُوَ يَمْشِي فِي الْجَنَّةِ عِنْدَ هُبُوبِ رِيحِ النَّهَارِ، فَاخْتَبَآ مِنْ حَضْرَةِ الرَّبِّ الإِلَهِ بَيْنَ شَجَرِ الْجَنَّةِ.٨
9 So God called to the man, and said to him, "Where are you?"
فَنَادَى الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ آدَمَ: «أَيْنَ أَنْتَ؟»٩
10 And he said, "I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; so I hid myself."
فَأَجَابَ: «سَمِعْتُ صَوْتَكَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ فَاخْتَبَأْتُ خِشْيَةً مِنْكَ لأَنِّي عُرْيَانٌ».١٠
11 And he said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?"
فَسَأَلَهُ: «مَنْ قَالَ لَكَ إِنَّكَ عُرْيَانٌ؟ هَلْ أَكَلْتَ مِنْ ثَمَرِ الشَّجَرَةِ الَّتِي نَهَيْتُكَ عَنْهَا؟»١١
12 The man said, "The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate."
فَأَجَابَ آدَمُ: «إِنَّهَا الْمَرْأَةُ الَّتِي جَعَلْتَهَا رَفِيقَةً لِي. هِيَ الَّتِي أَطْعَمَتْنِي مِنْ ثَمَرِ الشَّجَرَةِ، فَأَكَلْتُ».١٢
13 Then God said to the woman, "What is this you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate."
فَسَأَلَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ الْمَرْأَةَ: «مَاذَا فَعَلْتِ؟» فَأَجَابَتْ: «أَغْوَتْنِي الْحَيَّةُ فَأَكَلْتُ».١٣
14 So God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, cursed are you above every tame animal, and above every wild animal. On your belly you shall go, and you shall eat dust all the days of your life.
فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ لِلْحَيَّةِ: «لأَنَّكِ فَعَلْتِ هَذَا، مَلْعُونَةٌ أَنْتِ مِنْ بَيْنَ جَمِيعِ الْبَهَائِمِ وَمِنْ جَمِيعِ وُحُوشِ الْبَرِّيَّةِ، عَلَى بَطْنِكِ تَسْعَيْنَ، وَمِنَ التُّرَابِ تَأْكُلِينَ طَوَالَ حَيَاتِكِ،١٤
15 I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel."
وَأُثِيرُ عَدَاوَةً دَائِمَةً بَيْنَكِ وَبَيْنَ الْمَرْأَةِ، وَكَذَلِكَ بَيْنَ نَسْلَيْكُمَا. هُوَ يَسْحَقُ رَأْسَكِ وَأَنْتِ تَلْدَغِينَ عَقِبَهُ».١٥
16 And to the woman he said, "I will greatly multiply your pain in childbirth. In pain you will bring forth children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you."
ثُمَّ قَالَ لِلْمَرْأَةِ: «أُكَثِّرُ تَكْثِيراً أَوْجَاعَ مَخَاضِكِ فَتُنْجِبِينَ بِالآلَامِ أَوْلَاداً، وَإِلَى زَوْجِكِ يَكُونُ اشْتِيَاقُكِ وَهُوَ يَتَسَلَّطُ عَلَيْكِ».١٦
17 To Adam he said, "Because you have listened to your wife's voice, and have eaten of the tree, of which I commanded you, saying, 'You shall not eat of it,' cursed is the ground for your sake. In toil you will eat of it all the days of your life.
وَقَالَ لِآدَمَ: «لأَنَّكَ أَذْعَنْتَ لِقَوْلِ امْرَأَتِكَ، وَأَكَلْتَ مِنَ الشَّجَرَةِ الَّتِي نَهَيْتُكَ عَنْهَا، فَالأَرْضُ مَلْعُونَةٌ بِسَبَبِكَ وَبِالْمَشَقَّةِ تَقْتَاتُ مِنْهَا طَوَالَ عُمْرِكَ.١٧
18 Thorns also and thistles will it bring forth to you; and you will eat the plants of the field.
شَوْكاً وَحَسَكاً تُنْبِتُ لَكَ، وَأَنْتَ تَأْكُلُ عُشْبَ الْحَقْلِ.١٨
19 By the sweat of your face will you eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. For you are dust, and to dust you shall return."
بِعَرَقِ جَبِينِكَ تَكْسَبُ عَيْشَكَ حَتَّى تَعُودَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ، فَمِنْ تُرَابٍ أُخِذْتَ، وَإِلَى تُرَابٍ تَعُودُ».١٩
20 The man called his wife Eve, because she was the mother of all living.
وَسَمَّى آدَمُ زَوْجَتَهُ «حَوَّاءَ» لأَنَّهَا أُمُّ كُلِّ حَيٍّ.٢٠
21 And God made clothing out of skins for Adam and for his wife, and clothed them.
وَكَسَا الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ آدَمَ وَزَوْجَتَهُ رِدَاءَيْنِ مِنْ جِلْدٍ صَنَعَهُمَا لَهُمَا.٢١
22 Then God said, "Look, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil. So now, let us send him out, lest he reach out his hand and also take of the tree of life and eat, and live forever."
ثُمَّ قَالَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ: «هَا الإِنْسَانُ قَدْ صَارَ كَوَاحِدٍ مِنَّا، يُمَيِّزُ بَيْنَ الْخَيْرِ وَالشَّرِّ. وَقَدْ يَمُدُّ يَدَهُ وَيَتَنَاوَلُ مِنْ شَجَرَةِ الْحَيَاةِ وَيَأْكُلُ، فَيَحْيَا إِلَى الأَبَدِ».٢٢
23 Therefore the LORD sent him out of the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.
فَأَخْرَجَهُ مِنْ جَنَّةِ عَدْنٍ لِيَفْلَحَ الأَرْضَ الَّتِي أُخِذَ مِنْ تُرَابِهَا.٢٣
24 So he drove out the man; and he stationed the cherubim at the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword which turned every direction, to guard the way to the tree of life.
وَهَكَذَا طَرَدَ اللهُ الإِنْسَانَ مِنْ جَنَّةِ عَدْنٍ، وَأَقَامَ مَلائِكَةَ الْكَرُوبِيمِ وَسَيْفاً نَارِيًّا مُتَقَلِّباً شَرْقِيَّ الْجَنَّةِ لِحِرَاسَةِ الطَّرِيقِ الْمُفْضِيَةِ إِلَى «شَجَرَةِ الْحَيَاةِ».٢٤
