< 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'?”
Pea naʻe olopoto lahi hake ʻae ngata ʻi he manu kotoa pē ʻoe fonua, ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua. Pea pehē ʻe ia ki he fefine, “ʻOku moʻoni koā kuo pehē ʻe he ʻOtua, ‘ʻE ʻikai te mo kai ʻi he ʻakau kotoa pē ʻoe ngoue?’”
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit from the trees of the garden,
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he fefine ki he ngata, “ʻOku ngofua ʻema kai ʻi he fua ʻoe ngaahi ʻakau ʻoe ngoue:
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.'”
Ka ko e fua ʻoe ʻakau ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he loto ngoue, kuo folofola mai ʻe he ʻOtua, ‘ʻE ʻikai te mo kai ai, pea ʻe ʻikai te mo ala ki ai, telia naʻa mo mate.’”
4 The serpent said to the woman, “You will surely not die.
Pea pehē ʻe he ngata ki he fefine, “ʻOku ʻikai moʻoni te mo mate.
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.”
He ʻoku ʻilo ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻi he ʻaho te mo kai ai, ʻe toki ʻā ai homo mata, pea te mo hangē ko e ʻotua, ke ʻilo ai ʻae lelei mo e kovi.”
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.
Pea ʻi he mamata ʻe he fefine ʻoku lelei ʻae ʻakau ki he kai, mo matamatalelei ki he mata, pea ko e ʻakau ke velevele ki ai ke fakapotoʻi, naʻa ne toʻo ai hono fua, ʻo kai, pea naʻa ne ʻange foki ki hono ʻhusepāniti, pea naʻa ne kai.
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.
Pea naʻe ʻā ai ʻae mata ʻokinaua ʻosi pe, pea na ʻilo kuo na telefua; pea naʻa na tui ʻae lou fiki, ʻona vala ʻaki ia.
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.
Pea naʻa na fanongo ki he leʻo ʻo Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻi he ʻalu ʻi he ngoue ʻi he mokomoko ʻoe ʻaho: pea naʻe toitoi ʻa ʻAtama mo hono uaifi, mei he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻi he ngaahi ʻakau ʻoe ngoue.
9 Yahweh God called to the man and said to him, “Where are you?”
Pea naʻe ui ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua kia ʻAtama, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ke ʻi fē?”
10 The man said, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked. So I hid myself.”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Naʻaku fanongo ki ho leʻo ʻi he ngoue, pea naʻaku manavahē, koeʻuhi kuo u telefua; pea u toitoi ai.”
11 God said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko hai kuo fakahā kiate koe ʻoku ke telefua? Kuo ke kai ʻi he ʻakau, ʻaia naʻaku fekau kiate koe, ke ʻoua naʻa ke kai ai?”
12 The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
Pea pehē ʻe he tangata, “Ko e fefine ʻaia naʻa ke foaki ke ma nonofo, naʻe ʻomi ʻe ia kiate au mei he ʻakau pea u kai ai.”
13 Yahweh God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent lied to me, and I ate.”
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ki he fefine, “Ko e hā eni kuo ke fai?” Pea pehē ʻe he fefine, “Naʻe kākaaʻi au ʻe he ngata, pea u kai.”
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.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ki he ngata, “Koeʻuhi kuo ke fai eni, kuo ke malaʻia lahi hake ʻi he fanga manu lalata kotoa pē, mo e manu kotoa pē ʻoe vao; te ke ngaolo koe ʻi ho kete, pea te ke kai ʻae efu ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo moʻui:
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.”
pea te u tuku ʻae taufehiʻa ʻiate koe mo e fefine, pea ki ho hako mo hono hako; ʻe laiki ʻe ia ho ʻulu, pea te ke fakavolu ʻe koe ʻa hono muivaʻe.”
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.”
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki he fefine, “Te u fakalahi ʻaupito ʻa hoʻo mamahi ʻi hoʻo fanafanau: te ke fāʻeleʻi ʻae fānau ʻi he mamahi; pea ʻe ʻi ho husepāniti ʻa hoʻo holi, pea te ne puleʻi koe.”
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.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia kia ʻAtama, “Koeʻuhi kuo ke tokanga ki he leʻo ʻo ho uaifi, pea kuo ke kai ʻi he ʻakau ʻaia ne u fekau kiate koe, ‘Ke ʻoua naʻa ke kai ai:’ kuo malaʻia ʻae kelekele koeʻuhi ko koe; te ke kai mei ai ʻi he mamahi ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo hoʻo moʻui;
18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field.
‌ʻe tupu mei ai kiate koe ʻae ʻakau talatala mo e talatalaʻāmoa; pea te ke kai ʻae ʻakau iiki ʻoe fonua;
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.”
te ke kai ʻae meʻakai ʻi he kakava ʻo ho mata, kaeʻoua ke ke foki ki he kelekele; he naʻe toʻo koe mei ai: he ko e efu koe, pea te ke toe foki ki he efu.”
20 The man called his wife's name Eve because she was the mother of all the living.
Pea naʻe ui ʻe ʻAtama ʻae hingoa ʻo hono uaifi ko ʻIvi; koeʻuhi ko e faʻē ia ʻoe kakai moʻui kotoa pē.
21 Yahweh God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins and clothed them.
Naʻe ngaohi foki ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua mei he kiliʻi manu, ʻae ngaahi kofu kia ʻAtama mo hono uaifi, pea naʻa ne fakakofuʻi ʻakinaua.
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.”
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua, “Vakai, kuo hoko ʻae tangata ke hangē ko ha taha ʻiate kitautolu, ke ne ʻilo ʻae lelei mo e kovi: pea ko eni, telia naʻa mafao atu ʻe ia hono nima, pea ne toli foki mei he ʻakau ʻoe moʻui, ʻo kai, pea moʻui ʻo taʻengata:”
23 Therefore Yahweh God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate the ground from which he had been taken.
Ko ia naʻe fekau atu ia ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua mei he ngoue ʻo ʻIteni, ke ne ngāue ki he kelekele ʻaia naʻe toʻo ia mei ai.
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.
Pea naʻa ne kapusi ai ʻae tangata pea ne tuku ki he [potu ]hahake ʻoe ngoue ʻo ʻIteni, ʻae selupimi, mo e heletā ulo, ʻaia naʻe foli fakatakamilo, ke leʻohi ʻae hala ʻoe ʻakau ʻoe moʻui.
