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 serpent was more subtle than any animal of the field which Yahweh God had made. He said to the woman, “Has God really said, ‘You shall not eat of any tree of the garden’?”
2 Fanm nan te di a sèpan an: “Fwi ki sòti nan ab nan jaden yo, nou kapab manje yo;
The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees of 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 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.’”
4 Sèpan an te di fanm nan: “Vrèman, nou p ap mouri!”
The serpent said to the woman, “You won’t really die,
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 knows that in the day you eat it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing 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.
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.
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.
Their eyes were opened, and they both knew that they were naked. They sewed fig leaves together, and made coverings for themselves.
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.
They heard Yahweh 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 Yahweh God among the trees of the garden.
9 Alò, Senyè Bondye a te rele lòm nan, e te di l: “Kote ou ye?”
Yahweh God called to the man, and said to him, “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.”
The man said, “I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; so I hid myself.”
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?
God said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
12 Lòm nan te di: “Fanm ke Ou te ban mwen an, li te ban m ladann, e mwen te manje.”
The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate 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.”
Yahweh God said to the woman, “What have you done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
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.
Yahweh 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.
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.”
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.”
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, “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.”
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.
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 labor all the days of your life.
18 Se pikan, se zepeng li va fè grandi pou ou; epi ou va manje plant chan an.
It will yield thorns and thistles to you; and you will eat the herb of the field.
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.”
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.”
20 Alò, lòm nan te rele fanm li an Eve, paske se li ki te manman a tout vivan yo.
The man called his wife Eve because she would be the mother of all the living.
21 SENYÈ Bondye a te fè rad avèk po bèt pou Adam avèk madanm li, e Li te abiye yo.
Yahweh God made garments of animal skins for Adam and for his wife, and clothed them.
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—”
Yahweh 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—”
23 Pou sa, SENYÈ Bondye a te voye l deyò jaden Eden nan, pou kiltive tè a, nan sila li te sòti a.
Therefore Yahweh God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to till the ground 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 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.
