< 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?'"
Pea naʻe olopoto lahi hake ʻae ngata ʻi he manu kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua. Pea pehē ʻe ia ki he fefine, “ʻOku moʻoni koā kuo pehē ʻe he ʻOtua, ‘ʻE ʻikai te mo kai ʻi he ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoe ngoue?’”
2 And the woman said to the serpent, "Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat,
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he fefine ki he ngata, “ʻOku ngofua ʻema kai ʻi he fua ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau ʻoe ngoue:
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.'"
Ka ko e fua ʻoe ʻakau ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he loto ngoue, kuo folofola mai ʻe he ʻOtua, ‘ʻE ʻikai te mo kai ai, pea ʻe ʻikai te mo ala ki ai, telia naʻa mo mate.’”
4 The serpent said to the woman, "You won't surely die,
Pea pehē ʻe he ngata ki he fefine, “ʻOku ʻikai moʻoni te mo mate.
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."
He ʻoku ʻilo ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻi he ʻaho te mo kai ai, ʻe toki ʻā ai homo mata, pea te mo hangē ko e ʻotua, ke ʻilo ai ʻae lelei mo e kovi.”
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.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻe he fefine ʻoku lelei ʻae ʻakau ki he kai, mo matamatalelei ki he mata, pea ko e ʻakau ke velevele ki ai ke fakapotoʻi, naʻa ne toʻo ai hono fua, ʻo kai, pea naʻa ne ʻange foki ki hono ʻhusepāniti, pea naʻa ne kai.
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.
Pea naʻe ʻā ai ʻae mata ʻokinaua ʻosi pe, pea na ʻilo kuo na telefua; pea naʻa na tui ʻae lou fiki, ʻona vala ʻaki ia.
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.
Pea naʻa na fanongo ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻi he ʻalu ʻi he ngoue ʻi he mokomoko ʻoe ʻaho: pea naʻe toitoi ʻa ʻAtama mo hono uaifi, mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻi he ngaahi ʻakau ʻoe ngoue.
9 So God called to the man, and said to him, "Where are you?"
Pea naʻe ui ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua kia ʻAtama, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ke ʻi fē?”
10 And he said, "I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; so I hid myself."
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Naʻaku fanongo ki ho leʻo ʻi he ngoue, pea naʻaku manavahē, koeʻuhi kuo u telefua; pea u toitoi ai.”
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?"
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko hai kuo fakahā kiate koe ʻoku ke telefua? Kuo ke kai ʻi he ʻakau, ʻaia naʻaku fekau kiate koe, ke ʻoua naʻa ke kai ai?”
12 The man said, "The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate."
Pea pehē ʻe he tangata, “Ko e fefine ʻaia naʻa ke foaki ke ma nonofo, naʻe ʻomi ʻe ia kiate au mei he ʻakau pea u kai ai.”
13 Then God said to the woman, "What is this you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate."
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ki he fefine, “Ko e hā eni kuo ke fai?” Pea pehē ʻe he fefine, “Naʻe kākaaʻi au ʻe he ngata, pea u kai.”
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.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ki he ngata, “Koeʻuhi kuo ke fai eni, kuo ke malaʻia lahi hake ʻi he fanga manu lalata kotoa pē, mo e manu kotoa pē ʻoe vao; te ke ngaolo koe ʻi ho kete, pea te ke kai ʻae efu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo moʻui:
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."
pea te u tuku ʻae taufehiʻa ʻiate koe mo e fefine, pea ki ho hako mo hono hako; ʻe laiki ʻe ia ho ʻulu, pea te ke fakavolu ʻe koe ʻa hono muivaʻe.”
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."
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki he fefine, “Te u fakalahi ʻaupito ʻa hoʻo mamahi ʻi hoʻo fanafanau: te ke fāʻeleʻi ʻae fānau ʻi he mamahi; pea ʻe ʻi ho husepāniti ʻa hoʻo holi, pea te ne puleʻi koe.”
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.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kia ʻAtama, “Koeʻuhi kuo ke tokanga ki he leʻo ʻo ho uaifi, pea kuo ke kai ʻi he ʻakau ʻaia ne u fekau kiate koe, ‘Ke ʻoua naʻa ke kai ai:’ kuo malaʻia ʻae kelekele koeʻuhi ko koe; te ke kai mei ai ʻi he mamahi ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo moʻui;
18 Thorns also and thistles will it bring forth to you; and you will eat the plants of the field.
‌ʻe tupu mei ai kiate koe ʻae ʻakau talatala mo e talatalaʻāmoa; pea te ke kai ʻae ʻakau iiki ʻoe fonua;
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."
te ke kai ʻae meʻakai ʻi he kakava ʻo ho mata, kaeʻoua ke ke foki ki he kelekele; he naʻe toʻo koe mei ai: he ko e efu koe, pea te ke toe foki ki he efu.”
20 The man called his wife Eve, because she was the mother of all living.
Pea naʻe ui ʻe ʻAtama ʻae hingoa ʻo hono uaifi ko ʻIvi; koeʻuhi ko e faʻē ia ʻoe kakai moʻui kotoa pē.
21 And God made clothing out of skins for Adam and for his wife, and clothed them.
Naʻe ngaohi foki ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua mei he kiliʻi manu, ʻae ngaahi kofu kia ʻAtama mo hono uaifi, pea naʻa ne fakakofuʻi ʻakinaua.
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."
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua, “Vakai, kuo hoko ʻae tangata ke hangē ko ha taha ʻiate kitautolu, ke ne ʻilo ʻae lelei mo e kovi: pea ko eni, telia naʻa mafao atu ʻe ia hono nima, pea ne toli foki mei he ʻakau ʻoe moʻui, ʻo kai, pea moʻui ʻo taʻengata:”
23 Therefore YHWH sent him out of the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.
Ko ia naʻe fekau atu ia ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua mei he ngoue ʻo ʻIteni, ke ne ngāue ki he kelekele ʻaia naʻe toʻo ia mei ai.
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.
Pea naʻa ne kapusi ai ʻae tangata pea ne tuku ki he [potu ]hahake ʻoe ngoue ʻo ʻIteni, ʻae selupimi, mo e heletā ulo, ʻaia naʻe foli fakatakamilo, ke leʻohi ʻae hala ʻoe ʻakau ʻoe moʻui.
