< Genesis 3 >

1 And the snake was shrewd more than every animal of the field which he had made Yahweh God and he said to the woman indeed? that did he say God not you must eat from any tree of the garden.
在上主天主所造的一切野獸中,蛇是最狡猾的。蛇對女人說:「天主真說了,你們不可吃樂園中任何樹上的果子嗎﹖」
2 And she said the woman to the snake from [the] fruit of [the] tree[s] of the garden we will eat.
女人對蛇說:「樂園中樹上的果子,我們都可吃;
3 And from [the] fruit of the tree which [is] in [the] middle of the garden he said God not you must eat from it and not you will touch it lest you should die!
只有樂園中央那棵樹上的果子,天主說過,你們不可以吃,也不可摸,免得死亡。」
4 And he said the snake to the woman not certainly you will die!
蛇對女人說:「你們決不會死!
5 For [is] knowing God that on [the] day eat you from it and they will be opened eyes your and you will be like God [those who] know good and evil.
因為天主知道,你們那天吃了這果子,你們的眼就會開了,將如同天主一樣知道善惡。」
6 And she saw the woman that [was] good the tree for food and that [was] a delight it to the eyes and [it was] desirable the tree to make wise and she took some of fruit its and she ate and she gave [it] also to husband her with her and he ate.
女人看那棵果樹實在好吃好看,令人羨慕,且能增加智慧,遂摘下一個果子吃了,又給了她的男人一個,他也吃了。
7 And they were opened [the] eyes of both of them and they knew that [were] naked they and they sewed together leafage of a fig tree and they made for themselves loin coverings.
於是二人的眼立即開了,發覺自己赤身露體,遂用無花果樹葉,編了個裙子圍身。
8 And they heard [the] sound of Yahweh God walking about in the garden to [the] wind of the day and he hid himself the man and wife his from before Yahweh God in among [the] tree[s] of the garden.
當亞當和他的妻子聽見了上主天主趁晚涼在樂園中散步的聲音,就躲藏在樂園的樹林中,怕見上主天主的面。
9 And he called Yahweh God to the man and he said to him where [are]? you.
上主天主呼喚亞當對他說:「你在那裏﹖」
10 And he said sound your I heard in the garden and I was afraid for [was] naked I and I hid myself.
他答說:「我在樂園中聽到了你的聲音,就害怕起來,因為我赤身露體,遂躲藏了。」
11 And he said who? did he tell to you that [were] naked you ¿ from the tree which I commanded you to not to eat from it have you eaten.
天主說:「誰告訴了你,赤身露體﹖莫非你吃了我禁止你吃的果子﹖」
12 And he said the man the woman whom you put with me she she gave to me from the tree and I ate.
亞當說:「是你給作伴的那個女人給了我那樹上的果子,我才吃了。」
13 And he said Yahweh God to the woman what? this have you done and she said the woman the snake deceived me and I ate.
上主天主遂對女人說:「你為什麼作了這事﹖」女人答說:「是蛇哄騙了我,我才吃了。」
14 And he said Yahweh God - to the snake for you have done this [are] cursed you more than all livestock and more than every animal of the field on belly your you will go and dust you will eat all [the] days of life your.
上主天主對蛇說:「因你做了這事,你在一切畜牲和野獸中,是可咒罵的;你要用肚子爬行,畢生日日吃土。
15 And enmity - I will put between you and between the woman and between offspring your and between offspring her he he will bruise you head and you you will bruise him heel.
我要把仇恨放在你和女人,你的後裔和她的後裔之間,她的後裔要踏碎你的頭顱,你要傷害他的腳跟。」
16 To the woman he said certainly I will increase pain your and pregnancy your with pain you will bear children and [will be] to husband your desire your and he he will rule over you.
後對女人說:「我要增加你懷孕的苦楚,在痛苦中生子;你要依戀你的丈夫,也要受他的管轄。」
17 And to Adam he said (for *LA(bh)*) you listened to [the] voice of wife your and you ate from the tree which I commanded you saying not you must eat from it [is] cursed the ground for sake of you in pain you will eat it all [the] days of life your.
後對亞當說:「因為你聽了你妻子的話,吃了我禁止你吃的果子,為了你的緣故,地成了可咒罵的;你一生日日勞苦才能得到吃食。
18 And thorn[s] and thistle[s] will cause to sprout for you and you will eat [the] vegetation of the field.
地要給你生出荊棘和蒺蔾,你要吃田間的蔬菜;
19 By [the] sweat of face your you will eat food until return you to the ground for from it you were taken for [are] dust you and to dust you will return.
你必須汗流滿面,才有飯吃,直到你歸於土中,因為你是由土來的;你既是灰土,你還要歸於灰土。」
20 And he called the man [the] name of wife his Eve for she she was [the] mother of every living [person].
亞當給自己的妻子起名叫厄娃,因為她是眾生的母親。
21 And he made Yahweh God for Adam and for wife his garments of skin and he clothed them.
上主天主為亞當和他的妻子做了件皮衣,給他們穿上;
22 And he said - Yahweh God here! the man he has become like one of us by knowing good and evil and therefore - lest he should stretch out hand his and he will take also from [the] tree of life and he will eat and he will live for ever.
然後上主天主說:「看,人已相似我們中的一個,知道了善惡;如今不要讓他伸手再摘取生命樹上的果子,吃了活到永遠。」
23 And he sent out him Yahweh God from [the] garden of Eden to till the ground where he was taken from there.
上主天主遂把他趕出伊甸樂園,叫他耕種他所由出的土地。
24 And he drove out the man and he caused to dwell from east of [the] garden of Eden the cherubim and [the] flame of the sword whirling to guard [the] way of [the] tree of life.
天主將亞當逐出了以後,就在伊甸樂園的東面,派了「革魯賓」和刀光四射的火劍,防守到生命樹去的路。
