Genesis 3
1 Sed et serpens erat callidior cunctis animantibus terrae quae fecerat Dominus Deus. Qui dixit ad mulierem: Cur praecepit vobis Deus ut non comederetis ex omni ligno paradisi?
Now the serpent was more subtill then any beast of the fielde, which the Lord God had made: and he said to the woman, Yea, hath God in deede said, Ye shall not eate of euery tree of the garden?
2 Cui respondit mulier: De fructu lignorum, quae sunt in paradiso, vescimur:
And the woman said vnto the serpent, We eate of the fruite of the trees of the garden,
3 de fructu vero ligni, quod est in medio paradisi, praecepit nobis Deus ne comederemus: et ne tangeremus illud, ne forte moriamur.
But of the fruite of the tree which is in the middes of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eate of it, neither shall ye touche it, lest ye die.
4 Dixit autem serpens ad mulierem: Nequaquam morte moriemini.
Then the serpent said to the woman, Ye shall not die at all,
5 Scit enim Deus quod in quocumque die comederitis ex eo, aperientur oculi vestri: et eritis sicut dii, scientes bonum et malum.
But God doeth knowe, that when ye shall eate thereof, your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and euill.
6 Vidit igitur mulier quod bonum esset lignum ad vescendum, et pulchrum oculis, aspectuque delectabile: et tulit de fructu illius, et comedit: deditque viro suo, qui comedit.
So the woman (seeing that the tree was good for meate, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to get knowledge) tooke of the fruite thereof, and did eate, and gaue also to her husband with her, and he did eate.
7 Et aperti sunt oculi amborum: cumque cognovissent se esse nudos, consuerunt folia ficus, et fecerunt sibi perizomata.
Then the eyes of them both were opened, and they knewe that they were naked, and they sewed figge tree leaues together, and made them selues breeches.
8 Et cum audissent vocem Domini Dei deambulantis in paradiso ad auram post meridiem, abscondit se Adam et uxor eius a facie Domini Dei in medio ligni paradisi.
Afterward they heard the voyce of the Lord God walking in the garden in the coole of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselues from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
9 Vocavitque Dominus Deus Adam, et dixit ei: Ubi es?
But the Lord God called to the man, and said vnto him, Where art thou?
10 Qui ait: Vocem tuam audivi in paradiso: et timui, eo quod nudus essem, et abscondi me.
Who saide, I heard thy voyce in the garden, and was afraide: because I was naked, therefore I hid my selfe.
11 Cui dixit Dominus: Quis enim indicavit tibi quod nudus esses, nisi quod ex ligno de quo praeceperam tibi ne comederes, comedisti?
And he saide, Who tolde thee, that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eate?
12 Dixitque Adam: Mulier, quam dedisti mihi sociam, dedit mihi de ligno, et comedi.
Then the man saide, The woman which thou gauest to be with me, she gaue me of the tree, and I did eate.
13 Et dixit Dominus Deus ad mulierem: Quare hoc fecisti? Quae respondit: Serpens decepit me, et comedi.
And the Lord God saide to the woman, Why hast thou done this? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eate.
14 Et ait Dominus Deus ad serpentem: Quia fecisti hoc, maledictus es inter omnia animantia, et bestias terrae: super pectus tuum gradieris, et terram comedes cunctis diebus vitae tuae.
Then the Lord God said to the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed aboue all cattell, and aboue euery beast of the fielde: vpon thy belly shalt thou goe, and dust shalt thou eate all the dayes of thy life.
15 Inimicitias ponam inter te et mulierem, et semen tuum et semen illius: ipsa conteret caput tuum, et tu insidiaberis calcaneo eius.
I will also put enimitie betweene thee and the woman, and betweene thy seede and her seede. He shall breake thine head, and thou shalt bruise his heele.
16 Mulieri quoque dixit: Multiplicabo aerumnas tuas, et conceptus tuos: in dolore paries filios, et sub viri potestate eris, et ipse dominabitur tui.
Vnto the woman he said, I will greatly increase thy sorowes, and thy conceptions. In sorowe shalt thou bring foorth children, and thy desire shalbe subiect to thine husband, and he shall rule ouer thee.
17 Adae vero dixit: Quia audisti vocem uxoris tuae, et comedisti de ligno, ex quo, praeceperam tibi, ne comederes, maledicta terra in opere tuo: in laboribus comedes ex ea cunctis diebus vitae tuae.
Also to Adam he said, Because thou hast obeyed the voyce of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, (whereof I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eate of it) cursed is the earth for thy sake: in sorowe shalt thou eate of it all the dayes of thy life.
18 Spinas et tribulos germinabit tibi, et comedes herbas terrae.
Thornes also, and thistles shall it bring foorth to thee, and thou shalt eate the herbe of the fielde.
19 In sudore vultus tui vesceris pane tuo, donec revertaris in terram de qua sumptus es: quia pulvis es, et in pulverem reverteris.
In the sweate of thy face shalt thou eate bread, till thou returne to the earth: for out of it wast thou taken, because thou art dust, and to dust shalt thou returne.
20 Et vocavit Adam nomen uxoris suae, Heva: eo quod mater esset cunctorum viventium.
(And the man called his wiues name Heuah, because she was the mother of all liuing)
21 Fecit quoque Dominus Deus Adae et uxori eius tunicas pelliceas, et induit eos:
Vnto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coates of skinnes, and clothed them.
22 Et ait: Ecce Adam quasi unus ex nobis factus est, sciens bonum et malum: nunc ergo ne forte mittat manum suam, et sumat etiam de ligno vitae, et comedat, et vivat in aeternum.
And the Lord God said, Beholde, the man is become as one of vs, to knowe good and euill. And nowe lest he put foorth his hand, and take also of ye tree of life and eate and liue for euer,
23 Emisit eum Dominus Deus de paradiso voluptatis, ut operaretur terram de qua sumptus est.
Therefore the Lord God sent him foorth from the garden of Eden, to till ye earth, whence he was taken.
24 Eiecitque Adam: et collocavit ante paradisum voluptatis Cherubim, et flammeum gladium, atque versatilem, ad custodiendam viam ligni vitae.
Thus he cast out man, and at the East side of the garden of Eden he set the Cherubims, and the blade of a sworde shaken, to keepe the way of the tree of life.
