Genesis 3
1 Now the serpent was more shrewd than any other beast of the field which Yahweh God had made. He said to the woman, “Has God really said, 'You must not eat from any tree of the garden'?”
Og Slangen var træskere end alle vilde Dyr paa Marken, hvilke Gud Herren havde gjort; og den sagde til Kvinden: Mon Gud skulde have sagt: I maa ikke æde af hvert Træ i Haven?
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit from the trees of the garden,
Da sagde Kvinden til Slangen: Vi maa æde af Havens Træers Frugt;
3 but concerning the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God said, 'You may not eat it, nor may you touch it, or you will die.'”
men om det Træs Frugt, som er midt i Haven, sagde Gud: Æder ikke deraf og rører ikke derved, at I ikke skulle dø.
4 The serpent said to the woman, “You will surely not die.
Da sagde Slangen til Kvinden: I skulle ikke dø Døden;
5 For God knows that the day you eat it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
men Gud ved, at hvilken Dag I æde deraf, da skulle eders Øjne oplades, og I skulle blive ligesom Gud og kende godt og ondt.
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 desirable to make one wise, she took some of its fruit and ate it. Then she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate it.
Og Kvinden saa, at Træet var godt at æde af, og at det var lysteligt at se til og et ønskeligt Træ til at faa Forstand af, og hun tog af dets Frugt og aad; og hun gav ogsaa sin Mand med sig, og han aad.
7 The eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked. They sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
Da oplodes begges Øjne, og de kendte, at de vare nøgne, og de hæftede Figenblade sammen og gjorde sig Bælter.
8 They heard the sound of Yahweh God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, so the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Yahweh God among the trees of the garden.
Og de hørte Gud Herrens Røst, som gik i Haven, der Dagen blev sval; da skjulte Adam og hans Hustru sig for Gud Herrens Ansigt iblandt Træerne i Haven.
9 Yahweh God called to the man and said to him, “Where are you?”
Og Gud Herren kaldte ad Adam og sagde til ham: Hvor er du?
10 The man said, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked. So I hid myself.”
Og han sagde: Jeg hørte din Røst i Haven og frygtede; thi jeg var nøgen, og jeg skjulte mig.
11 God said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
Og han sagde: Hvo gav dig til Kende, at du var nøgen? har du ædet af det Træ, om hvilket jeg bød dig, at du skulde ikke æde deraf?
12 The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
Og Adam sagde: Kvinden, som du gav til at være hos mig, hun gav mig af Træet, og jeg aad.
13 Yahweh God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent lied to me, and I ate.”
Da sagde Gud Herren til Kvinden: Hvi har du gjort dette? Og Kvinden sagde: Slangen forførte mig, og jeg aad.
14 Yahweh God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, cursed are you alone among all the livestock and all the beasts of the field. It is on your stomach that you will go, and it is dust that you will eat all the days of your life.
Da sagde Gud Herren til Slangen: Efterdi du gjorde dette, da vær forbandet fremfor alt Kvæget og fremfor alle vilde Dyr paa Marken; du skal gaa paa din Bug og æde Støv alle dit Livs Dage.
15 I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel.”
Og jeg vil sætte Fjendskab imellem dig og imellem Kvinden og imellem din Sæd og imellem hendes Sæd; den skal sønderknuse dit Hoved, men du skal sønderknuse hans Hæl.
16 To the woman he said, “I will greatly multiply your pain in having children; it is in pain that you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, but he will rule over you.”
Til Kvinden sagde han: Jeg vil meget mangfoldiggøre din Kummer og din Undfangelse, med Smerte skal du føde Børn; og din Attraa skal være til din Mand, men han skal herske over dig.
17 To Adam he said, “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree, concerning which I commanded you, saying, 'You may not eat from it,' cursed is the ground because of you; through painful work you will eat from it all the days of your life.
Og til Adam sagde han: Efterdi du lød din Hustrus Røst og aad af det Træ, om hvilket jeg bød dig og sagde: Du skal ikke æde deraf, da være Jorden forbandet for din Skyld, med Kummer skal du æde deraf alle dit Livs Dage.
18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field.
Og den skal bære dig Torn og Tidsel, og du skal æde Urter paa Marken.
19 By the sweat of your face you will eat bread, until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. For dust you are, and to dust you will return.”
I dit Ansigts Sved skal du æde dit Brød, indtil du bliver til Jord igen, thi deraf er du tagen; thi du er Støv, og du skal blive til Støv igen.
20 The man called his wife's name Eve because she was the mother of all the living.
Og Adam kaldte sin Hustrus Navn Eva, thi hun er bleven alle levendes Moder.
21 Yahweh God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins and clothed them.
Og Gud Herren gjorde Adam og hans Hustru Kjortler af Skind og iførte dem.
22 Yahweh God said, “Now the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil. So now he must not be allowed to reach out with his hand, take from the tree of life, eat it, and live forever.”
Og Gud Herren sagde: Se, Adam er bleven som en af os til at kende godt og ondt; men nu, paa det han ikke skal udrække sin Haand og tage ogsaa af Livsens Træ og æde og leve evindeligen:
23 Therefore Yahweh God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate the ground from which he had been taken.
da forviste Gud Herren ham af Edens Have til at dyrke Jorden, som han var tagen af.
24 So God drove the man out of the garden, and he placed cherubim at the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword that turned every way, in order to guard the way to the tree of life.
Og han drev Mennesket ud og satte Keruber Østen for Edens Have med et blinkende Sværd, som vendte sig hid og did, til at vogte Vejen til Livsens Træ.
