Jenèz 3
1 Alò, sèpan an te pi koken pase nenpòt bèt chan ke Bondye te fè. Li te di fanm nan: “Vrèman èske Bondye te di: ‘Pinga nou manje nan okenn ab nan jaden an?’”
Now the snake was wiser than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, Has God truly said that you may not take of the fruit of any tree in the garden?
2 Fanm nan te di a sèpan an: “Fwi ki sòti nan ab nan jaden yo, nou kapab manje yo;
And the woman said, We may take of the fruit of the trees in the garden:
3 men nan fwi ki sòti nan ab ki nan mitan jaden an, Bondye te di: Nou pa pou manje nan li, ni touche li, sinon, nou va mouri.”
But of the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God has said, If you take of it or put your hands on it, death will come to you.
4 Sèpan an te di fanm nan: “Vrèman, nou p ap mouri!”
And the snake said, Death will not certainly come to you:
5 Paske Bondye konnen ke nan jou nou manje nan li, zye nou va vin louvri, e nou va vin tankou Bondye, avèk konesans de sa ki bon ak sa ki mal.
For God sees that on the day when you take of its fruit, your eyes will be open, and you will be as gods, having knowledge of good and evil.
6 Lè fanm nan te wè ke pyebwa a te bon pou manje, ke li te yon plezi devan zye li, ke li te byen itil pou vin saj, alò li te pran nan fwi a pou li te manje; epi li te bay osi a mari li ansanm avèk li, pou li te manje.
And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and a delight to the eyes, and to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit, and gave it to her husband.
7 Zye a toude te vin louvri, e yo te vin konnen ke yo te toutouni. Pou sa, yo te koud fèy pyebwa ansanm e yo te fè pou yo menm yon tabliye.
And their eyes were open and they were conscious that they had no clothing and they made themselves coats of leaves stitched together.
8 Yo te tande son a SENYÈ Bondye a ki t ap mache nan jaden an nan frechè jounen an, e lòm nan avèk fanm nan te kache tèt yo de prezans SENYÈ Bondye a pami bwa yo nan jaden an.
And there came to them the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the evening wind: and the man and his wife went to a secret place among the trees of the garden, away from the eyes of the Lord God.
9 Alò, Senyè Bondye a te rele lòm nan, e te di l: “Kote ou ye?”
And the voice of the Lord God came to the man, saying, Where are you?
10 Adam te reponn: “Mwen te tande son Ou menm nan jaden an, e mwen te pè paske mwen te toutouni; alò mwen te kache tèt mwen.”
And he said, Hearing your voice in the garden I was full of fear, because I was without clothing: and I kept myself from your eyes.
11 Epi Li te di li, kilès ki te di ou ke ou te toutouni? Èske ou te manje nan pyebwa e M te di ou pa manje a?
And he said, Who gave you the knowledge that you were without clothing? Have you taken of the fruit of the tree which I said you were not to take?
12 Lòm nan te di: “Fanm ke Ou te ban mwen an, li te ban m ladann, e mwen te manje.”
And the man said, The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me the fruit of the tree and I took it.
13 Alò, Bondye te di a fanm nan: “Kisa ou te fè la a?” Epi fanm nan te di: “Sèpan an te twonpe mwen, e mwen te manje l.”
And the Lord God said to the woman, What have you done? And the woman said, I was tricked by the deceit of the snake and I took it.
14 SENYÈ Bondye a te di a sèpan an: “Akoz ke ou te fè sa, ou modi pase tout bèt domestik yo, e plis ke tout bèt sovaj nan chan an. Sou vant ou ou va mache, e se pousyè ke ou va manje tout jou nan vi ou.
And the Lord God said to the snake, Because you have done this you are cursed more than all cattle and every beast of the field; you will go flat on the earth, and dust will be your food all the days of your life:
15 Mwen va mete rayisman antre ou menm avèk fanm nan, e antre pitit ou ak pitit li. Li va kraze tèt ou, e ou va kraze talon li.”
And there will be war between you and the woman and between your seed and her seed: by him will your head be crushed and by you his foot will be wounded.
16 A fanm nan Li te di: “Mwen va miltipliye anpil doulè ke ou va gen nan fè pitit; ak doulè ou va gen nan pouse pitit; malgre sa, dezi ou va pou mari ou, e li va domine sou ou.”
To the woman he said, Great will be your pain in childbirth; in sorrow will your children come to birth; still your desire will be for your husband, but he will be your master.
17 Alò a Adam Li te di: “Akoz ou te koute vwa a fanm ou an, ou te manje nan ab ke Mwen te kòmande e te di Ou pa manje ladann nan, tè a ap modi akoz ou menm. Nan redi ou va manje ladann pou tout jou lavi ou.
And to Adam he said, Because you gave ear to the voice of your wife and took of the fruit of the tree which I said you were not to take, the earth is cursed on your account; in pain you will get your food from it all your life.
18 Se pikan, se zepeng li va fè grandi pou ou; epi ou va manje plant chan an.
Thorns and waste plants will come up, and the plants of the field will be your food;
19 Avèk swè figi ou, ou va manje pen, jiskaske ou retounen nan tè a, paske ladann ou te sòti. Paske se pousyè ou ye, e se nan pousyè ou va retounen.”
With the hard work of your hands you will get your bread till you go back to the earth from which you were taken: for dust you are and to the dust you will go back.
20 Alò, lòm nan te rele fanm li an Eve, paske se li ki te manman a tout vivan yo.
And the man gave his wife the name of Eve because she was the mother of all who have life.
21 SENYÈ Bondye a te fè rad avèk po bèt pou Adam avèk madanm li, e Li te abiye yo.
And the Lord God made for Adam and for his wife coats of skins for their clothing.
22 Alò, SENYÈ Bondye a te di: “Gade byen, lòm nan gen tan vini tankou youn nan Nou, avèk konesans sa ki bon avèk sa ki mal. Koulye a, pou li pa lonje men l, pou pran osi nan ab lavi a, manje l e viv jis pou tout tan—”
And the Lord God said, Now the man has become like one of us, having knowledge of good and evil; and now if he puts out his hand and takes of the fruit of the tree of life, he will go on living for ever.
23 Pou sa, SENYÈ Bondye a te voye l deyò jaden Eden nan, pou kiltive tè a, nan sila li te sòti a.
So the Lord God sent him out of the garden of Eden to be a worker on the earth from which he was taken.
24 Alò, Li te pouse lòm nan deyò; epi nan lès jaden Eden nan, Li te estasyone cheriben nan avèk nepe ak flanm ki te vire nan tout direksyon pou veye chemen vè ab lavi a.
So he sent the man out; and at the east of the garden of Eden he put winged ones and a flaming sword turning every way to keep the way to the tree of life.
