< Kĩambĩrĩria 3 >
1 Na rĩrĩ, nyoka yarĩ na wara mũingĩ gũkĩra nyamũ ciothe cia gĩthaka iria Jehova Ngai oombĩte. Nyoka ĩyo ĩkĩũria mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ Ngai nĩ oigire mũtikanarĩe maciaro kuuma mũtĩ o wothe wa mũgũnda ũyũ?”
Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which YHWH Elohim had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath Elohim said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
2 Mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio agĩcookeria nyoka ĩyo atĩrĩ, “No tũrĩe matunda ma mĩtĩ ĩrĩa ĩrĩ mũgũnda ũyũ,
And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
3 no Ngai aatwĩrire atĩrĩ, ‘Mũtikanarĩe matunda ma mũtĩ ũrĩa ũrĩ gatagatĩ ka mũgũnda ũyũ, na mũtikanaũhutie, nĩguo mũtigakue.’”
But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, Elohim hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
4 No nyoka ĩkĩĩra mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ mũtingĩkua.
And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
5 No Ngai nĩoĩ atĩ rĩrĩa mũkaarĩa matunda macio, maitho manyu nĩmakahingũka, mũtuĩke o ta Ngai, mũmenyage wega na ũũru.”
For Elohim doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be like Elohim, knowing good and evil.
6 Rĩrĩa mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio onire atĩ matunda ma mũtĩ ũcio maarĩ mega ma kũrĩa, na ma kwendeka makĩonwo na maitho, o na ma kwĩrirĩrio nĩ ũndũ wa kũũhĩgia mũndũ, agĩtua mamwe, akĩrĩa. Agĩcooka akĩhe mũthuuri wake, ũrĩa maarĩ nake, nake akĩrĩa.
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 the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
7 Hĩndĩ ĩyo maitho mao eerĩ makĩhingũka, nao makĩmenya atĩ maarĩ njaga; nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩtumania mathangũ ma mũkũyũ, magĩĩthondekera kĩndũ gĩa kũhumbĩra njaga yao.
And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
8 Hwaĩ-inĩ rĩrĩa riũa rĩarurĩte-rĩ, mũndũ ũcio na mũtumia wake makĩigua makinya ma Jehova Ngai agĩceera kũu mũgũnda-inĩ, nao makĩĩhitha mĩtĩ-inĩ ya mũgũnda nĩguo Jehova Ngai ndakamone.
And they heard the voice of YHWH Elohim walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of YHWH Elohim amongst the trees of the garden.
9 No Jehova Ngai agĩĩta mũndũ ũcio, akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ũrĩ ha?”
And YHWH Elohim called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?
10 Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ngũiguire ũgĩceera mũgũnda-inĩ ndeetigĩra tondũ nyuma njaga; nĩ ũndũ ũcio ndeehitha.”
And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
11 Nake Jehova akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Nũũ ũkwĩrire atĩ ũrĩ njaga? Kaĩ ũrĩĩte matunda ma mũtĩ ũrĩa ndagwaathire ngĩkwĩra ndũkanaũrĩe?”
And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
12 Mũndũ ũcio akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ-wa-nja ũrĩa waheire ndũũranie nake nĩwe ũũheire matunda mamwe ma mũtĩ ũcio, na niĩ ndarĩa.”
And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
13 Nake Jehova Ngai akĩũria mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio atĩrĩ, “Atĩ nĩ atĩa wĩkĩte?” Mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ nyoka ĩheenirie na niĩ ndarĩa matunda macio.”
And YHWH Elohim said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.
14 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova Ngai akĩĩra nyoka atĩrĩ, “Tondũ nĩwĩkĩte ũguo-rĩ, “Wee ũrogwatwo nĩ kĩrumi gũkĩra mahiũ mothe na gũkĩra nyamũ ciothe cia gĩthaka! Ũrĩthiiaga na nda, na ũrĩrĩĩaga rũkũngũ matukũ mothe ma muoyo waku.
And YHWH Elohim said unto 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:
15 Na nĩngũtũma kũgĩe ũthũ gatagatĩ gaku na mũndũ-wa-nja ũyũ, na gatagatĩ ka rũciaro rwaku na rwake; nake nĩagakũhehenja mũtwe, nawe nĩũkamũgũtha ndiira ya kũgũrũ gwake.”
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.
16 Ningĩ akĩĩra mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũkũingĩhĩria ruo mũno hĩndĩ ya gũciara; ũrĩciaraga ciana na ruo. Merirĩria maku marĩkoragwo marĩ harĩ mũthuuriguo, nake nĩarĩgwathaga.”
Unto 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.
17 Ningĩ Ngai akĩĩra Adamu atĩrĩ, “Tondũ nĩwathĩkĩire mũtumia waku, na warĩa matunda ma mũtĩ ũrĩa ndagwaathire, ngĩkwĩra atĩ, ‘Ndũkanarĩe,’ “Thĩ nĩyarumwo nĩ ũndũ waku; ũrĩrĩĩaga irio ciayo na ruo rwa mĩnoga matukũ mothe ma muoyo waku.
And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto 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 day of thy life;
18 Ĩrĩgũciaragĩra mĩigua na mahiũ ma nyeki-inĩ, nawe ũrĩrĩĩaga mĩmera ya mũgũnda.
Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
19 Ũrĩrĩĩaga irio cia thithino ya mĩnoga yaku, o nginya rĩrĩa ũgaacooka tĩĩri-inĩ, tondũ nokuo warutĩtwo; tondũ wee ũrĩ rũkũngũ na ũgaacooka o rũkũngũ-inĩ.”
In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
20 Adamu agĩĩta mũtumia wake Hawa, tondũ nĩwe watuĩkire nyina wa arĩa othe matũũraga muoyo.
And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
21 Jehova Ngai agĩthondekera Adamu na mũtumia wake nguo cia njũũa, akĩmahumba.
Unto Adam also and to his wife did YHWH Elohim make coats of skins, and clothed them.
22 Nake Jehova Ngai akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ ũyũ nĩatuĩkĩte o ta ũmwe witũ, akamenya wega na ũũru. Ndagĩrĩire gwĩtĩkĩrio atue matunda ma mũtĩ wa muoyo o namo, amarĩe nake atũũre nginya tene.”
And YHWH Elohim said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
23 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova Ngai akĩmũingata kuuma Mũgũnda wa Edeni athiĩ akarĩmage tĩĩri-inĩ kũrĩa aarutĩtwo.
Therefore YHWH Elohim sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
24 Ngai aarĩkia kũrutũrũra mũndũ ũcio-rĩ, akĩiga akerubi mwena wa irathĩro wa Mũgũnda wa Edeni, o na rũhiũ rwa njora rwarĩrĩmbũkaga mwaki na rwahenagia mbarĩ ciothe, nĩ ũndũ wa kũgitĩra njĩra ya gũthiĩ mũtĩ-inĩ ũcio wa muoyo.
So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
