< 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’?”
Kale nno omusota gwali mukalabakalaba okukira ensolo zonna ez’omu nsiko, Mukama Katonda ze yatonda. Ne gugamba omukazi nti, “Kazzi Katonda yagamba nti, ‘Temulyanga ku muti gwonna ogw’omu nnimiro!’”
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.’”
Omukazi n’addamu omusota nti, “Tulya ku buli muti ogw’omu nnimiro,
kyokka Katonda yatulagira nti, ‘Temulyanga ku kibala ky’omuti oguli wakati mu nnimiro, wadde okugukwatako, muleme okufa.’”
4 The snake said to the woman, “No, you will certainly not die. God said that
Naye omusota ne gugamba omukazi nti, “Temugenda kufa.
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.”
Kubanga Katonda amanyi nga lwe muligulyako amaaso gammwe lwe galizibuka, era mulifaanana nga ye, okumanyanga ekirungi n’ekibi.”
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.
Awo omukazi bwe yalaba ng’omuti mulungi nga gusanyusa okutunulako era gwegombebwa okuleeta amagezi, n’anoga ekibala kyagwo n’alya; n’awaako ne bba naye n’alya.
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.
Awo amaaso gaabwe bombi ne gazibuka, ne bategeera nga baali bwereere; ne baluka amalagala g’emiti ne beekolera ebyokwambala.
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].
Awo ne bawulira eddoboozi lya Mukama Katonda ng’atambula mu nnimiro, mu budde obuweeweevu. Omusajja n’omukazi ne beekweka mu miti Mukama Katonda aleme okubalaba.
9 But Yahweh God called to the man, saying to him, “Why are you [trying to hide from me]?”
Naye Mukama Katonda n’ayita omusajja nti, “Oli ludda wa?”
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.”
N’addamu nti, “Mpulidde eddoboozi lyo mu nnimiro, ne ntya, kubanga mbadde bwereere; ne nneekweka.”
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]
N’amubuuza nti, “Ani akubuulidde nti oli bwereere? Olidde ku muti gwe nakulagira obutagulyangako?”
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.”
Omusajja n’addamu nti, “Omukazi gwe wampa okubeeranga nange y’ampadde ekibala ne ndya.”
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.”
Mukama Katonda kwe kubuuza omukazi nti, “Kiki kino ky’okoze?” Omukazi n’addamu nti, “Omusota gwe gunsenzesenze ne ndya.”
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.
Mukama Katonda n’agamba omusota nti, Kubanga okoze kino okolimiddwa okukira ensolo zonna ez’awaka n’ez’omu nsiko, oneekululiranga ku lubuto lwo era onoolyanga nfuufu ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwo.
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.”
Nteeka obulabe wakati wo n’omukazi, ne wakati w’ezzadde lyo n’ezzadde ly’omukazi; ezzadde lye linaakubetentanga omutwe, naawe onoolibojjanga ekisinziiro.
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.”
N’agamba omukazi nti, “Nnaayongeranga nnyo ku bulumi bwo ng’oli lubuto, onoozaaliranga mu bulumi; musajja wo anaakukoleranga bye weetaaga kyokka anaakufuganga.”
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.
N’agamba Adamu nti, “Kubanga owulidde eddoboozi lya mukazi wo, n’olya ku muti gwe nakulagira obutagulyangako, “ensi ekolimiddwa ku lulwo; mu ntuuyo zo mw’onoofuniranga ekyokulya ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwo.
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.
Ensi eneekumerezanga amaggwa n’amatovu, onoolyanga ebibala eby’omu nnimiro.
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.”
Mu ntuuyo zo mw’onoggyanga ekyokulya, okutuusa lw’olidda mu ttaka mwe wava, kubanga oli nfuufu ne mu nfuufu mw’olidda.”
20 [The man, whose name was] Adam, named his wife Eve, [which means ‘living’], because she became the ancestor of all living people.
Omusajja n’atuuma omukazi erinnya Kaawa, oyo ye nnyina w’abalamu bonna.
21 Then Yahweh God [killed some animals and] made clothes from their skins for Adam and his wife.
Mukama Katonda n’akolera Adamu ne mukazi we ebyambalo eby’amaliba n’abambaza.
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]!”
Awo Mukama Katonda n’agamba nti, “Laba omuntu afuuse ng’omu ku ffe okumanyanga ekirungi n’ekibi; kale kaakano talwa kugolola mukono gwe n’anoga ku muti ogw’obulamu n’alya, n’awangaala emirembe gyonna.”
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].
Bw’atyo Mukama Katonda n’agoba omuntu mu nnimiro Adeni agende alimenga ettaka mwe yaggyibwa.
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].
Bwe yamala okugobamu omuntu, n’ateekamu Bakerubi n’ekitala ekimyansa eky’obwogi ku buli ludda okukuuma ekkubo erigenda ku muti ogw’obulamu.
