創世記 3
1 ヱホバ神の造りたまひし野の生物の中に蛇最も狡猾し蛇婦に言ひけるは神眞に汝等園の諸の樹の果は食ふべからずと言たまひしや
Now, the serpent, was more crafty than any living thing of the field which Yahweh God had made, so he said unto the woman, Can it really be that God hath said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
2 婦蛇に言けるは我等園の樹の果を食ふことを得
And the woman said unto the serpent, —Of the fruit of the trees of the garden, we may eat;
3 然ど園の中央に在樹の果實をば神汝等之を食ふべからず又之に捫るべからず恐は汝等死んと言給へり
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.
4 蛇婦に言けるは汝等必らず死る事あらじ
And the serpent said unto the woman, —Ye shall not die,
5 神汝等が之を食ふ日には汝等の目開け汝等神の如くなりて善惡を知に至るを知りたまふなりと
For God doth know, that in the day ye eat thereof, then shall your eyes be opened, —and ye shall become like God, knowing good and evil.
6 婦樹を見ば食に善く目に美麗しく且智慧からんが爲に慕はしき樹なるによりて遂に其果實を取て食ひ亦之を己と偕なる夫に與へければ彼食へり
And, when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was desirable to the eyes and the tree was pleasant to make one knowing, then took she of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and she gave to her husband also, along with her, and he did eat.
7 是において彼等の目倶に開て彼等其裸體なるを知り乃ち無花果樹の葉を綴て裳を作れり
Then were opened the eyes of them both, and they knew that, naked, they were, —so they tacked together fig-leaves, and made for themselves girdles,
8 彼等園の中に日の清涼き時分歩みたまふヱホバ神の聲を聞しかばアダムと其妻即ちヱホバ神の面を避て園の樹の間に身を匿せり
Then heard they the sound of Yahweh God, walking to and fro in the garden at the breeze of the day, —so he hid himself—the man with his wife, from the face of Yahweh God, amid the trees of the garden.
9 ヱホバ神アダムを召て之に言たまひけるは汝は何處にをるや
And Yahweh God called unto the man, —and said to him, Where art thou?
10 彼いひけるは我園の中に汝の聲を聞き裸體なるにより懼れて身を匿せりと
And he said, The sound of thee, heard I in the garden, and I was afraid, for, naked, was I, so I hid myself.
11 ヱホバ言たまひけるは誰が汝の裸なるを汝に告しや汝は我が汝に食ふなかれと命じたる樹の果を食ひたりしや
And he said, Who told thee that, naked, thou wast? Of the tree whereof I commanded thee not to eat, hast thou eaten?
12 アダム言けるは汝が與て我と偕ならしめたまひし婦彼其樹の果實を我にあたへたれば我食へりと
And the man said, —The woman whom thou didst put with me, she, gave me of the tree, so I did eat.
13 ヱホバ神婦に言たまひけるは汝がなしたる此事は何ぞや婦言けるは蛇我を誘惑して我食へりと
Then said Yahweh God to the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, the serpent, deceived me, so I did eat.
14 ヱホバ神蛇に言たまひけるは汝是を爲たるに因て汝は諸の家畜と野の諸の獸よりも勝りて詛はる汝は腹行て一生の間塵を食ふべし
Then said Yahweh God unto the serpent—Because thou hast done this, Accursed, art thou above every tame-beast, and above every wild-beast of the field, —on thy belly, shalt thou go, and dust, shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.
15 又我汝と婦の間および汝の苗裔と婦の苗裔の間に怨恨を置ん彼は汝の頭を碎き汝は彼の踵を碎かん
And enmity, will I put between thee, and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed, —He shall crush thy head, but, thou, shalt crush his heel.
16 又婦に言たまひけるは我大に汝の懷姙の劬勞を増すべし汝は苦みて子を產ん又汝は夫をしたひ彼は汝を治めん
Unto the woman, he said, I will, increase, thy pain of pregnancy, In pain, shalt thou bear children, —Yet, unto thy husband, shall be thy longing, Though, he, rule over thee.
17 又アダムに言たまひけるは汝その妻の言を聽て我が汝に命じて食ふべからずと言たる樹の果を食ひしに縁て土は汝のために詛はる汝は一生のあひだ勞苦て其より食を得ん
And, to the man, he said, Because thou didst hearken to the voice of thy wife, and so didst eat of the tree as to which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it, Accursed be the ground for thy sake, In pain, shalt thou eat of it, all the days of thy life;
18 土は荊棘と薊とを汝のために生ずべしまた汝は野の草蔬を食ふべし
Thorn also and thistle, shall it shoot forth to thee, —when thou hast come to eat of the herb of the field:
19 汝は面に汗して食物を食ひ終に土に歸らん其は其中より汝は取れたればなり汝は塵なれば塵に皈るべきなりと
In the sweat of thy face, shalt thou eat bread, until thou return to the ground, because therefrom, wast thou taken, —For, dust, thou art, And, unto dust, shalt thou return.
20 アダム其妻の名をヱバと名けたり其は彼は群の生物の母なればなり
So the man called the name of his wife, Eve, —in that, she, was made mother of every one living.
21 ヱホバ神アダムと其妻のために皮衣を作りて彼等に衣せたまへり
And Yahweh God made for the man—and for his wife—tunics of skin and clothed them.
22 ヱホバ神曰たまひけるは視よ夫人我等の一の如くなりて善惡を知る然ば恐くは彼其手を舒べ生命の樹の果實をも取りて食ひ限無生んと
Then said Yahweh God—Lo! man, hath become like one of us, in respect of knowing good and evil, —Now, therefore, lest he thrust forth his hand, and take even of the tree of life, and eat, and live to times age-abiding, —
23 ヱホバ神彼をエデンの園よりいだし其取て造られたるところの土を耕さしめたまへり
So Yahweh God put him forth from the garden of Eden, —to till the ground wherefrom he had been taken.
24 斯神其人を逐出しエデンの園の東にケルビムと自から旋轉る焔の劍を置て生命の樹の途を保守りたまふ
So he expelled the man, —and caused to dwell—in front of the garden of Eden—cherubim and a brandishing sword—flame, to keep the way to the tree of life.
