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'?”
Men Slangen var træskere end alle Markens andre Dyr, som Gud HERREN havde gjort og den sagde til Kvinden: "Mon Gud virkelig ham sagt: I må ikke spise af noget Træ i Haven?"
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit from the trees of the garden,
Kvinden svarede: "Vi har Lov at spise af Frugten på Havens Træer;
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.'”
kun af Frugten fra Træet midt i Haven, sagde Gud, må I ikke spise, ja, I må ikke røre derved, thi så skal I dø!"
4 The serpent said to the woman, “You will surely not die.
Da sagde Slangen til Kvinden: "I skal ingenlunde dø;
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 når I spiser deraf, åbnes eders Øjne, så I blive som Gud til at 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.
Kvinden blev nu var, at Træet var godt at spise af, en Lyst for Øjnene og godt at få Forstand af; og hun tog af dets Frugt og spiste og gav også sin Mand, der stod hos hende, og han spiste.
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 åbnedes begges Øjne, og de kendte, at de var nøgne. Derfor syede de Figenblade sammen og bandt dem om sig.
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.
Da Dagen blev sval, hørte de Gud HERREN vandre i Haven, og Adam og hans Hustru skjulte sig for ham inde mellem Havens Træer.
9 Yahweh God called to the man and said to him, “Where are you?”
Da kaldte Gud HERREN på Adam og råbte: "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.”
Han svarede: "Jeg hørte dig i Haven og blev angst, fordi jeg var nøgen, og så skjulte jeg 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?”
Da sagde han: "Hvem fortalte dig, at du var nøgen. Mon du har spist af det Træ, jeg sagde, du ikke måtte spise af?"
12 The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
Adam svarede: "Kvinden, som du satte ved min Side, gav mig af Træet, og så spiste jeg."
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 Kvinde: "Hvad har du gjort!" Kvinden svarede: "Slangen forførte mig, og så spiste jeg."
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: "Fordi du har gjort dette, være du forbandet blandt al Kvæget og blandt alle Markens Dyr! På din Bug skal du krybe, og Støv skal du æde 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.”
Jeg sætter Fjendskab mellem dig og Kvinden, mellem din Sæd og hendes Sæd; den skal knuse dit Hoved, og du skal hugge den i Hælen!"
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 dit Svangerskabs Møje; med Smerte skal du føde Børn; men til din Mand skal din Attrå være, og 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: "Fordi du lyttede til din Hustrus Tale og spiste af Træet, som jeg sagde, du ikke måtte spise af, skal Jorden være forbandet for din Skyld; med Møje skal du skaffe dig Føde af den alle dit Livs Dage;
18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field.
Torn og Tidsel skal den bære dig, og Markens Urter skal være din Føde;
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 spise dit Brød, indtil du vender tilbage til Jorden; thi af den er du taget; ja, Støv er du, og til Støv skal du vende tilbage!"
20 The man called his wife's name Eve because she was the mother of all the living.
Men Adam kaldte sin Hustru Eva, thi hun blev Moder til alt levende.
21 Yahweh God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins and clothed them.
Derpå gjorde Gud HERREN Skindkjortlet til Adam og hans Hustru og klædte dem dermed.
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.”
Men Gud HERREN sagde: "Se, Mennesket er blevet som en af os til at kende godt og ondt. Nu skal han ikke række Hånden ud og tage også af Livets Træ og spise og leve evindelig!"
23 Therefore Yahweh God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate the ground from which he had been taken.
Så forviste Gud HERREN ham fra Edens Have, for at han skulde dyrke Jorden, som han var taget 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 østen for Edens Have satte han Keruberne med det glimtende Flammesværd til at vogte Vejen til Livets Træ.
