Genesis 3
1 The snake was more cunning than all the other wild animals that Yahweh God had made. [One day Satan gave to] the snake [the ability to talk to the woman]. The snake said to her, “Did God really say to you, ‘Do not eat the fruit from any of the trees in the park/garden’?”
Und die Schlange war listiger denn alle Tiere auf dem Felde, die Gott der HERR gemacht hatte, und sprach zu dem Weibe: Ja, sollte Gott gesagt haben: Ihr sollt nicht essen von allerlei Bäumen im Garten.
2 The woman replied, “[What God said was], ‘Do not eat the fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the park/garden or touch it. If you do that, you will die. But you can eat fruit from any of the other trees.’”
Da sprach das Weib zu der Schlange: Wir essen von den Früchten der Bäume im Garten;
aber von den Früchten des Baumes mitten im Garten hat Gott gesagt: Esset nicht davon, rühret es auch nicht an, daß ihr nicht sterbet!
4 The snake said to the woman, “No, you will certainly not die. God said that
Da sprach die Schlange zum Weibe: Ihr werdet mitnichten des Todes sterben;
5 [only] because he knows that when you eat fruit from that tree, [you will understand new things. It will be as though] your eyes are opened [MET], and you will know what is good [to do] and what is evil [to do], just as God does.”
sondern Gott weiß, daß, welches Tages ihr davon esset, so werden eure Augen aufgetan, und werdet sein wie Gott und wissen, was gut und böse ist.
6 The woman saw that the fruit on that tree was good to eat, and it was very beautiful, and she desired it because [she thought] it would make her wise. So she picked some of the fruit and ate it. Then she gave some to her husband, and he ate it.
Und das Weib schauete an, daß von dem Baum gut zu essen wäre und lieblich anzusehen, daß es ein lustiger Baum wäre, weil er klug machte, und nahm von der Frucht und aß und gab ihrem Mann auch davon, und er aß.
7 Immediately [it was as though] their eyes were opened, and they realized that they were naked, so they were ashamed. So they [picked] some fig leaves and fastened them together to make clothes for themselves.
Da wurden ihrer beiden Augen aufgetan und wurden gewahr, daß sie nackend waren, und flochten Feigenblätter zusammen und machten ihnen Schürze.
8 [Late that afternoon], when a cool breeze was blowing, they heard the sound/footsteps of Yahweh as he was walking in the park/garden. So the man and his wife hid themselves among the bushes in the park/garden, [so that Yahweh God would not see them].
Und sie höreten die Stimme Gottes des HERRN, der im Garten ging, da der Tag kühl worden war. Und Adam versteckte sich mit seinem Weibe vor dem Angesicht Gottes des HERRN unter die Bäume im Garten.
9 But Yahweh God called to the man, saying to him, “Why are you [trying to hide from me]?”
Und Gott der HERR rief Adam und sprach zu ihm: Wo bist du?
10 The man replied, “I heard the sound of your [footsteps/walking] in the garden, and I was naked, so I was afraid and I hid myself.”
Und er sprach: Ich hörete deine Stimme im Garten und fürchtete mich, denn ich bin nackend; darum versteckte ich mich.
11 God said, “How did you find out you were naked [RHQ]? It must be because you ate some of the fruit [from the tree] that I told you, ‘Do not eat its fruit.’” [RHQ]
Und er sprach: Wer hat dir's gesagt, daß du nackend bist? Hast du nicht gegessen von dem Baum, davon ich dir gebot, du solltest nicht davon essen?
12 The man said, “You gave me this woman to be with me. She is the one who gave me some of the fruit from that tree, and so I ate it.”
Da sprach Adam: Das Weib, das du mir zugesellet hast, gab mir von dem Baum, und ich aß.
13 Then Yahweh God said to the woman, “Why did you do such a thing?” The woman replied, “I ate some of the fruit because the snake deceived me.”
Da sprach Gott der HERR zum Weibe: Warum hast du das getan? Das Weib sprach: Die Schlange betrog mich also, daß ich aß.
14 Then Yahweh God said to the snake, “Because you did this, of all the livestock and the wild animals, I will curse/punish you alone. As a result, you [and all other snakes] will scurry across the ground on your bellies, and so what you eat will have dirt [on it] as long as you live.
Da sprach Gott der HERR zu der Schlange: Weil du solches getan hast, seiest du verflucht vor allem Vieh und vor allen Tieren auf dem Felde. Auf deinem Bauch sollst du gehen und Erde essen dein Leben lang.
15 And I will cause you and the woman to act in a hostile way toward each other, and I will cause your brood and her descendants to act hostilely toward each other. You will strike at the heel [of one descendant] of hers, but he will strike your head.”
Und ich will Feindschaft setzen zwischen dir und dem Weibe und zwischen deinem Samen und ihrem Samen. Der selbe soll dir den Kopf zertreten, und du wirst ihn in die Ferse stechen.
16 Then Yahweh said to the woman, “You will have great pain when you give birth to children; you will suffer great pain as your children are being born [DOU]. You will greatly desire your husband [to show affection for you], but he will rule over you.”
Und zum Weibe sprach er: Ich will dir viel Schmerzen schaffen, wenn du schwanger wirst; du sollst mit Schmerzen Kinder gebären; und dein Wille soll deinem Mann unterworfen sein, und er soll dein HERR sein.
17 Then Yahweh said to the man, “You heeded what your wife said, and you ate some of the fruit [of the tree] concerning which I commanded you saying, ‘Do not eat it.’ So I will make it difficult [to grow things in] the ground because of what you did. You will have to work hard as long as you live to produce things from the ground to eat.
Und zu Adam sprach er: Dieweil du hast gehorchet der Stimme deines Weibes und gegessen von dem Bäume, davon ich dir gebot und sprach: Du sollst nicht davon essen; verflucht sei der Acker um deinetwillen; mit Kummer sollst du dich drauf nähren dein Leben lang.
18 Thornbushes and thistle plants and other weeds will grow [and prevent what you have planted from growing]. And for food, you will have to eat things that just grow in your fields.
Dornen und Disteln soll er dir tragen, und sollst das Kraut auf dem Felde essen.
19 [All your life] you will sweat as you work hard to produce food to eat. Then you will die [EUP], and your [body will be buried] in the ground. [I made] you from soil, so when you [die and are buried your body will decay] and become soil again.”
Im Schweiß deines Angesichts sollst du dein Brot essen, bis daß du wieder zu Erde werdest, davon du genommen bist. Denn du bist Erde und sollst zu Erde werden.
20 [The man, whose name was] Adam, named his wife Eve, [which means ‘living’], because she became the ancestor of all living people.
Und Adam hieß sein Weib Heva, darum daß sie eine Mutter ist aller Lebendigen.
21 Then Yahweh God [killed some animals and] made clothes from their skins for Adam and his wife.
Und Gott der HERR machte Adam und seinem Weibe Röcke von Fellen und zog sie ihnen an,
22 Then Yahweh said, “Look! Those two have become like us because they know what is good [to do] and what is evil [to do]. So now, it will not be good if they reach out and pick and eat [some of the fruit from] the tree [which enables people who eat it] to live [forever]!”
Und Gott der HERR sprach: Siehe, Adam ist worden als unsereiner und weiß, was gut und böse ist. Nun aber, daß er nicht ausstrecke seine Hand und breche auch von dem Baum des Lebens und esse und lebe ewiglich:
23 So Yahweh God expelled the man and his wife from the garden of Eden. Yahweh God had created Adam from the ground, but now he forced him to till that ground [so that he could grow food to eat].
da ließ ihn Gott der HERR aus dem Garten Eden, daß er das Feld bauete, davon er genommen ist,
24 After Yahweh expelled them, on the east side of the garden he placed (cherubim/creatures with wings) and [an angel holding] a flaming sword which flashed back and forth. He did that in order to block the entrance to the garden, so that people could not go back to the tree that enables people [who eat its fruit] to live [forever].
und trieb Adam aus und lagerte vor den Garten Eden den Cherub mit einem bloßen hauenden Schwert, zu bewahren den Weg zu dem Baum des Lebens.
