Genesis 3
1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made: and he said to the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
Na ɔwɔ yɛ ɔdaadaafoɔ wɔ wiram mmoadoma a Awurade Onyankopɔn abɔ wɔn no nyinaa mu. Ɔwɔ no kɔɔ ɔbaa no nkyɛn kɔbisaa no sɛ, “Enti, ɛyɛ ampa ara sɛ, Onyankopɔn se, ‘Monnni turo yi mu aduaba biara?’”
2 And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
Ɔbaa no buaa ɔwɔ sɛ, “Yɛtumi di nnua a ɛwɔ turo yi mu no so aduaba biara,
3 But of the fruit of the tree which [is] in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
nanso Onyankopɔn kaa sɛ, ‘Ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛdi dua a ɛsi turo no mfimfini no so aduaba, na ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛde yɛn nsa mpo ka, anyɛ saa a, yɛbɛwuwu.’”
4 And the serpent said to the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
Na ɔwɔ no ka kyerɛɛ ɔbaa no sɛ, “Morenwuwu.
5 For God doth know, that in the day ye eat of it, then your eyes shall be opened: and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
Onyankopɔn nim sɛ, ɛda a mobɛdi no ara pɛ, mo ani bɛba mo ho so, ama moayɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn, na moahunu papa ne bɔne.”
6 And when the woman saw that the tree [was] good for food, and that it [was] pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make [one] wise; she took of its fruit, and ate, and gave also to her husband with her, and he ate.
Ɛberɛ a ɔbaa no hunuu sɛ dua a ɛsi mfimfini no so aba no wɔdi a, ɛbɛyɛ yie, na ɛyɛ akɔnnɔ, na afei ɛte ani no, ɔtee bi diiɛ, de bi ma ne kunu a na ɔne no wɔ hɔ maa ɔno nso diiɛ.
7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they [were] naked: and they sewed fig-leaves together, and made for themselves aprons.
Wɔdi wieeɛ no, wɔn baanu ani baa wɔn ho so, na wɔhunuu sɛ wɔn nyinaa da adagya. Enti, wɔkekaa nhahan sisii animu de kataa wɔn adagya so.
8 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.
Ɛda no anwummerɛ, wɔtee Awurade Onyankopɔn nka sɛ ɔnam turo no mu. Enti, Adam ne ne yere Hawa de wɔn ho kɔsiee nnua a ɛwɔ turo mu hɔ no mu sɛdeɛ Awurade Onyankopɔn renhunu wɔn.
9 And the LORD God called to Adam, and said to him, Where [art] thou?
Enti, Awurade Onyankopɔn frɛɛ Adam bisaa no sɛ, “Mowɔ he?”
10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden: and I was afraid, because I [was] naked; and I hid myself.
Adam buaa sɛ, “Metee wo nka wɔ turo no mu hɔ, nanso na mesuro, ɛfiri sɛ, na meda adagya enti mekɔtɛeɛ.”
11 And he said, Who told thee that thou [wast] naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee, that thou shouldest not eat?
Na Onyankopɔn bisaa no sɛ, “Hwan na ɔka kyerɛɛ wo sɛ na woda adagya? Gyama dua a meka kyerɛɛ wo sɛ, nni so aba no, woadi nʼaba no bi?”
12 And the man said, The woman, whom thou gavest [to be] with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.
Adam kaa sɛ, “Aane. Ɔbaa no a wode no maa me sɛ me ne no ntena no na ɔde aduaba a ɔte firii dua no so no brɛɛ me ma mediiɛ.”
13 And the LORD God said to the woman, What [is] this [that] thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I ate.
Enti, Awurade Onyankopɔn bisaa ɔbaa no sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na woayɛ yi?” Ɔbaa no buaa sɛ, “Ɔwɔ no na ɔdaadaa me ma mediiɛ.”
14 And the LORD God said to the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou [art] cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field: upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
Enti, Awurade Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ ɔwɔ no sɛ, “Esiane saa adeɛ a woayɛ yi enti, “Wɔadome wo wɔ mmoa nyinaa ne nkekaboa mu. Wobɛwea wʼafuru so, na wo nkwa nna nyinaa woadi mfuturo.
15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed: it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Mede ɔtan bɛto wo ne ɔbaa no ne wʼasefoɔ ne nʼasefoɔ ntam. Ɔno na ɔbɛbɔ wo tire, na wo nso woaka ne nantin.”
16 To the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children: and thy desire [shall be] to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
Afei, Awurade Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ ɔbaa no nso sɛ, “Wobɛte ɔyea pa ara wɔ wʼawoɔ mu; ɔyea mu na wobɛwo mma. Yei nyinaa akyiri no, wʼani bɛgyina wo kunu na ɔbɛdi wo so.”
17 And to Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed [is] the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat [of] it all the days of thy life;
Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Adam nso sɛ, “Esiane sɛ wotiee wo yere asɛm, na wodii dua a mehyɛɛ wo sɛ, ‘Nni so aba no’ enti, “Madome asase, na ɔbrɛ ne ɔhaw mu na wobɛdidi so wo nkwa nna nyinaa.
18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
Ɛbɛfifiri nkasɛɛ ne nkyɛkyerɛ ama wo na woadi wiram nhahan.
19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou shalt return to the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou [art], and to dust shalt thou return.
Wobɛsiam wʼanim fifire ansa na woanya aduane adi, kɔsi sɛ wobɛwu akɔ dɔteɛ mu, ɛfiri sɛ, dɔteɛ no mu na menwonoo wo firiiɛ; woyɛ dɔteɛ, na dɔteɛ mu na wobɛsane akɔ.”
20 And Adam called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.
Adam too ne yere no edin Hawa, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔno na ɔbɛyɛ ateasefoɔ nyinaa na.
21 For Adam also and for his wife the LORD God made coats of skins, and clothed them.
Awurade Onyankopɔn de aboa nwoma yɛɛ ntadeɛ maa Adam ne ne yere Hawa de kataa wɔn ho.
22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man hath become as one of us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he should put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
Awurade Onyankopɔn kaa sɛ, “Afei, onipa no abɛyɛ sɛ yɛn ara a, wahunu papa ne bɔne. Ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛma no ɛkwan na ɔtene ne nsa kɔte nkwa dua no so aba no bi die, na ɔtena ase afebɔɔ.”
23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.
Enti, Awurade Onyankopɔn pamoo no firii Eden turo no mu sɛ ɔnkɔyɛ adwuma wɔ asase a, wɔnwonoo no firii mu no so.
24 So he drove out the man: and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
Ɔpamoo onipa no. Na Eden turo no apueeɛ fam hɔ no, ɔde Kerubim ne afena a ɛredɛre twa ne ho fa baabiara no sii hɔ sɛ, ɛnwɛn ɛkwan a ɛkɔ nkwa dua no ho.
