< Genesis 3 >

1 Now the serpent was more subtle than any animal of the field which the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, “Has God really said, ‘You shall not eat of any tree of the garden’?”
Torej kača [pa] je bila bolj premetena kakor katerakoli izmed poljskih živali, ki jih je Gospod Bog naredil. In rekla je ženski: »Da, ali je Bog res rekel: ›Ne bosta jedla od vsakega vrtnega drevesa?‹«
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees of the garden,
In ženska je rekla kači: »Midva lahko jeva od sadja vrtnih dreves,
3 but not the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden. God has said, ‘You shall not eat of it. You shall not touch it, lest you die.’”
toda o sadu drevesa, ki je v sredi vrta, je Bog rekel: ›Ne bosta jedla od njega niti se ga ne bosta dotikala, da ne bi umrla.‹«
4 The serpent said to the woman, “You won’t really die,
Kača je ženski rekla: »Zagotovo ne bosta umrla,
5 for God knows that in the day you eat it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
kajti Bog ve, da se bodo na dan, ko bosta od njega jedla, vajine oči potem odprle in bosta kakor bogovi, poznavajoč dobro in zlo.«
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 to be desired to make one wise, she took some of its fruit, and ate. Then she gave some to her husband with her, and he ate it, too.
In ko je ženska videla, da je bilo drevo dobro za jed in da je bilo prijetno očem in da si je drevesa želeti, da naredi nekoga modrega, je vzela od njegovega sadu in jedla ter dala tudi svojemu soprogu, [ki je bil] z njo, in on je jedel.
7 Their eyes were opened, and they both knew that they were naked. They sewed fig leaves together, and made coverings for themselves.
Oči so se obema odprle in spoznala sta, da sta bila naga. Skupaj sta sešila figove liste ter si naredila predpasnika.
8 They heard the LORD God’s voice walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.
In zaslišala sta šum Gospoda Boga, ki je v svežini dneva hodil po vrtu, in Adam ter njegova žena sta se pred prisotnostjo Gospoda Boga skrila med vrtna drevesa.
9 The LORD God called to the man, and said to him, “Where are you?”
Gospod Bog je zaklical Adamu in mu rekel: »Kje si?«
10 The man said, “I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; so I hid myself.”
Ta je rekel: »Zaslišal sem tvoj šum na vrtu in sem se zbal, ker sem bil nag, in sem se skril.«
11 God said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
Rekel je: »Kdo ti je povedal, da si bil nag? Mar si jedel od drevesa, od katerega sem ti zapovedal, da ne bi smel jesti?«
12 The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
Mož je rekel: »Ženska, ki si mi jo dal, da je z menoj, ona mi je dala od drevesa in sem jedel.«
13 The LORD God said to the woman, “What have you done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
Gospod Bog je rekel ženski: »Kaj je to, kar si storila?« Ženska je rekla: »Kača me je preslepila in sem jedla.«
14 The LORD God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, you are cursed above all livestock, and above every animal of the field. You shall go on your belly and you shall eat dust all the days of your life.
Gospod Bog je rekel kači: »Ker si to storila, si prekleta nad vso živino in nad vsako poljsko živaljo. Po svojem trebuhu boš šla in prah boš jedla vse dni svojega življenja.
15 I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel.”
Postavil bom sovraštvo med teboj in žensko in med tvoje seme in njeno seme; to ti zdrobi glavo, ti pa boš ranila njegovo peto.«
16 To the woman he said, “I will greatly multiply your pain in childbirth. You will bear children in pain. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.”
Ženski je rekel: »Silno bom pomnožil tvojo bridkost in tvoje spočetje. V bridkosti boš rojevala otroke, in tvoje hrepenenje bo k tvojemu soprogu in on bo vladal nad teboj.«
17 To Adam he said, “Because you have listened to your wife’s voice, and have eaten from the tree, about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it,’ the ground is cursed for your sake. You will eat from it with much labour all the days of your life.
Adamu pa je rekel: »Ker si prisluhnil glasu svoje žene in si jedel od drevesa, o katerem sem ti zapovedal, rekoč: ›Ne boš jedel od njega; ‹ prekleta so tla zaradi tebe, v bridkosti boš jedel od le-teh vse dni svojega življenja.
18 It will yield thorns and thistles to you; and you will eat the herb of the field.
Tudi trnje in osat ti bodo obrodila; in poljsko zelišče boš jedel;
19 You will eat bread by the sweat of your face until you return to the ground, for you were taken out of it. For you are dust, and you shall return to dust.”
v potu svojega obraza boš jedel kruh, dokler se ne vrneš v tla, kajti od tam si bil vzet, kajti prah si in v prah se boš vrnil.«
20 The man called his wife Havah because she would be the mother of all the living.
Adam je svojo ženo imenoval Eva; ker je bila mati vseh živih.
21 The LORD God made garments of animal skins for Adam and for his wife, and clothed them.
Adamu in njegovi ženi je Gospod Bog naredil plašča iz kož ter ju oblekel.
22 The LORD God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil. Now, lest he reach out his hand, and also take of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever—”
Gospod Bog je rekel: »Glej, človek je postal kakor eden izmed nas, da pozna dobro in zlo. In sedaj, da ne iztegne svoje roke in vzame tudi od drevesa življenja ter jé in živi na veke, «
23 Therefore the LORD God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.
ga je Gospod Bog zato odposlal iz edenskega vrta, da orje tla, iz katerih je bil vzet.
24 So he drove out the man; and he placed cherubim at the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life.
Tako je izgnal človeka in na vzhodu edenskega vrta namestil kerube in ognjen meč, ki obrača vsako pot, da varuje pot drevesa življenja.
