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'?”
Agwọ dị aghụghọ karịa ụmụ anụ ọhịa niile Onyenwe anyị Chineke kere. Ọ bịakwutere nwanyị ahụ sị ya, “Ọ bụ ezie na Chineke sị unu erila mkpụrụ si nʼosisi niile dị nʼogige a?”
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit from the trees of the garden,
Nwanyị ahụ zara sị ya, “Anyị nwere ike rie mkpụrụ si nʼosisi niile dị nʼogige a
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.'”
ma Chineke kwuru sị, ‘Unu erila mkpụrụ si nʼosisi dị nʼetiti ogige a, unu emetụkwala ya aka, ka unu ghara ịnwụ.’”
4 The serpent said to the woman, “You will surely not die.
Agwọ gwara nwanyị ahụ sị, “Unu agaghị anwụ.
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.”
Nʼihi na Chineke maara na ọ bụrụ na unu erie ya, anya unu ga-emeghe, unu ga-amata ezi ihe na ajọ ihe.”
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.
Nwanyị ahụ hụrụ na mkpụrụ si nʼosisi ahụ dị mma iri eri, na ọ dị mma nʼanya, na ọ bụ osisi mara mma e si enweta amamihe. Ọ ghọọrọ mkpụrụ ahụ rie, nyekwa di ya, onye nke na ya nọ, o rie.
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.
Mgbe ahụ, anya ha abụọ meghere, ha chọpụtara na ha gba ọtọ. Ya mere, ha dụkọtara ahịhịa fiig, jiri ya mere onwe ha akwa.
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.
Mgbe nwoke ahụ na nwunye ya nụrụ ụda njegharị Onyenwe anyị Chineke nʼogige ahụ nʼoge uhuruchi, ha zoro onwe ha site nʼebe Onyenwe anyị Chineke nọ nʼetiti osisi ndị dị nʼogige ahụ.
9 Yahweh God called to the man and said to him, “Where are you?”
Ma Onyenwe anyị Chineke kpọrọ nwoke ahụ oku sị ya, “Ebee ka ị nọ?”
10 The man said, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked. So I hid myself.”
Ọ zara si, “Anụrụ m ụda ụkwụ gị nʼogige, nʼihi ya, atụrụ m ụjọ, ebe ọ bụ na m gba ọtọ. Ezokwara m onwe m.”
11 God said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
Onyenwe anyị Chineke jụrụ ya sị, “Onye gwara gị na ị gba ọtọ? I riela mkpụrụ si nʼosisi ahụ m nyere gị iwu sị gị erila?”
12 The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
Nwoke ahụ sịrị, “Nwanyị ahụ i mere ka mụ na ya nọdụ, ọ bụ ya nyere m mkpụrụ sitere nʼosisi ahụ, m rie.”
13 Yahweh God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent lied to me, and I ate.”
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị Chineke sịrị nwanyị ahụ, “Gịnị bụ ihe a i mere?” Nwanyị ahụ zara sị, “Ọ bụ agwọ ghọgburu m, mee m ka m rie ya.”
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.
Ya mere, Onyenwe anyị Chineke gwara agwọ ahụ sị, “Nʼihi ihe a i mere, “Ihe a bụrụ ọnụ ka ị bụ nʼetiti anụ ụlọ niile na nʼetiti anụ ọhịa niile. Afọ gị ka ị ga-eji na-aga ije, aja ka ị ga na-eri ogologo ụbọchị ndụ gị niile.
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.”
Aga m eme ka iro dịrị nʼetiti gị na nwanyị ahụ, nʼetiti mkpụrụ gị na mkpụrụ ya, mkpụrụ ya ga-etipịa gị isi, gị onwe gị ga-ata ya arụ nʼikiri ụkwụ.”
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.”
Ọ gwara nwanyị ahụ sị ya, “Aga m eme ka ihe mgbu nke ịmụ nwa gị baa ụba nke ukwuu, ọ bụ site nʼihe mgbu ka ị ga-eji mụpụta ụmụ gị. Ọchịchọ nke obi gị ga-adị nʼaka di gị, ọ bụ ya ga-achịkwa gị.”
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.
Ọ gwara Adam sị, “Nʼihi na ị ṅara nwunye gị ntị, rie mkpụrụ site nʼosisi ahụ m nyere gị iwu sị, ‘Gị erila mkpụrụ sitere na ya,’ “Ala bụ ihe a bụrụ ọnụ nʼihi gị, site nʼoke ndọgbu nʼọrụ ka ị ga-eri ihe si na ya pụta ogologo ụbọchị ndụ gị niile.
18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field.
Ọ ga-erupụtara gị ogwu na uke, ị ga-erikwa ahịhịa nke ubi.
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.”
Site nʼọsụsọ nke ga-agbapụta gị nʼihu ka ị ga-eri nri gị tutu ruo mgbe ị lọghachiri nʼala ebe ọ bụ site nʼala ka e si mepụta gị nʼihi na aja ka ị bụ, nʼaja ka ị ga-alaghachikwa.”
20 The man called his wife's name Eve because she was the mother of all the living.
Adam gụrụ nwunye ya Iiv, nʼihi na ọ bụ nne mmadụ niile dị ndụ.
21 Yahweh God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins and clothed them.
Emesịa, Onyenwe anyị Chineke weere akpụkpọ anụ meere Adam na nwunye ya uwe oyiyi.
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.”
Onyenwe anyị Chineke sịrị, “Lee, mmadụ adịla ka onye ọbụla nʼime anyị site nʼịmata ihe ọma na ihe ọjọọ. Ugbu a, ka ọ gharakwa ị setịpụ aka ya ghọrọ mkpụrụ osisi ahụ na-enye ndụ rie, si otu a dịrị ndụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.”
23 Therefore Yahweh God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate the ground from which he had been taken.
Nʼihi nke a, Onyenwe anyị Chineke chụpụrụ ya site nʼogige Iden ka ọ gaa na-arụ ọrụ nʼala e si wepụta ya.
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.
Mgbe ọ chụpụrụ mmadụ, o dochiri nʼọwụwa anyanwụ nke ogige Iden ndị mmụọ ozi dị ike a na-akpọ Cherubim, na mma agha na-acha ọkụ, ka ha na-eche ọnụ ụzọ e si aba nʼebe osisi ahụ na-enye ndụ dị nche.
