Kenehi 3
1 Na ko te nakahi he mohio rawa i nga kirehe katoa o te parae i hanga nei e Ihowa, e te Atua. Na ko tana meatanga ki te wahine, Koia, i mea ano te Atua, Kaua e kainga e korua nga hua o tetahi rakau o te kari?
Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field that the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden?’”
2 A ka mea te wahine ki te nakahi, E kai ano maua i nga hua o nga rakau o te kari:
The woman answered the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden,
3 Ko nga hua ia o te rakau i waenganui o te kari, kua mea mai te Atua, Kaua korua e kai i tetahi o ona hua, kaua ano hoki e pa ki reira, kei mate korua.
but about the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘You must not eat of it or touch it, or you will die.’”
4 Na ko te meatanga a te nakahi ki te wahine, E kore korua e mate rawa:
“You will not surely die,” the serpent told her.
5 Erangi e mohio ana te Atua ko te ra e kai ai korua i tetahi o ona hua, katahi ka marama o korua kanohi, a ka rite korua ki te Atua, ka mohio ki te pai, ki te kino.
“For God knows that in the day you eat of it, your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
6 A, i te kitenga o te wahine he pai te rakau ra hei kai, he ahuareka ki te titiro atu, he rakau hoki e minaminatia hei whakamohio, na ka tango ia i etahi o ona hua, ka kai, ka hoatu hoki ki tana tahu i tona taha; a kai ana ia.
When the woman saw that the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eyes, and that it was desirable for obtaining wisdom, she took the fruit and ate it. She also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate it.
7 Na ka marama o raua kanohi tahi, ka mohio raua kei te tu tahanga raua; na ka tuia e raua etahi rau piki, meatia ana hei rapaki mo raua.
And the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; so they sewed together fig leaves and made coverings for themselves.
8 A ka rongo raua i te reo o Ihowa, o te Atua, e haereere ana i te kari i te hauhautanga o te ra: a ka piri a Arama raua ko tana wahine i te aroaro o Ihowa, o te Atua, ki roto ki nga rakau o te kari.
Then the man and his wife heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the breeze of the day, and they hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.
9 Na ka karanga a Ihowa, te Atua, ki a Arama, ka mea ki a ia, Kei hea koe?
But the LORD God called out to the man, “Where are you?”
10 A ka mea ia, I rongo ahau ki tou reo i te kari, a wehi ana ahau, noku i tu tahanga; na piri ana ahau.
“I heard Your voice in the garden,” he replied, “and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid myself.”
11 Na ka mea ia, Na wai i mea ki a koe e tu tahanga ana koe? Kua kainga ranei e koe etahi o nga hua o te rakau i kiia atu ra e ahau ki a koe, Kaua ona hua e kainga?
“Who told you that you were naked?” asked the LORD God. “Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?”
12 Na ka mea te tangata ra, Na te wahine i homai nei e koe hei hoa moku, nana i homai etahi o nga hua o te rakau ki ahau, a kainga ana e ahau.
And the man answered, “The woman whom You gave me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
13 Na ka mea a Ihowa, te Atua, ki te wahine, He aha tenei kua meatia nei e koe? Ka mea te wahine, Na te nakahi ahau i maminga, a kai ana ahau.
Then the LORD God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” “The serpent deceived me,” she replied, “and I ate.”
14 Na ka mea a Ihowa, te Atua, ki te nakahi, Mo tenei mahi au nui atu te kanga mou i o nga kararehe katoa, i o nga kirehe katoa o te parae; ko tou kopu hei haere mou, ko te puehu hei kai mau i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe:
So the LORD God said to the serpent: “Because you have done this, cursed are you above all livestock and every beast of the field! On your belly will you go, and dust you will eat, all the days of your life.
15 Ka whakatupuria hoki e ahau he pakanga ma korua ko te wahine, ma tou uri ratou ko tona uri; ka maru tou matenga i a ia, ka maru i a koe tona rekereke.
And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.”
16 Ka mea ia ki te wahine, Ka whakanuia rawatia e ahau tou mamae, me tou haputanga; ka mamae koe ina whanau tamariki; ka hiahia koe ki to tahu, ko ia ano hoki hei rangatira mou.
To the woman He said: “I will sharply increase your pain in childbirth; in pain you will bring forth children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.”
17 A ka mea ia ki a Arama, Mo tou rongonga ki te reo o tau wahine, mo tau kainga hoki i te hua o te rakau i kiia atu e ahau ki a koe, i meatia atu ra, Kaua e kainga etahi o ona hua: ka oti te oneone te kanga mo tau mahi; ka kainga e koe ona hua i r unga i te mamae i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe;
And to Adam He said: “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you not to eat, cursed is the ground because of you; through toil you will eat of it all the days of your life.
18 He tataramoa ano hoki, he tumatakuru ana e whakatupu ake ai mau; a ka kai koe i te otaota o te parae;
Both thorns and thistles it will yield for you, and you will eat the plants of the field.
19 Ma te werawera o tou mata e kai ai koe i te taro, a hoki noa koe ki te oneone; i tangohia mai nei hoki koe i reira: he puehu hoki koe, a ka hoki ano ki te puehu.
By the sweat of your brow you will eat your bread, until you return to the ground— because out of it were you taken. For dust you are, and to dust you shall return.”
20 A i huaina e Arama te ingoa o tana wahine ko Iwi; no te mea ko te whaea ia o nga mea ora katoa.
And Adam named his wife Eve, because she would be the mother of all the living.
21 Na ka hanga e Ihowa, e te atua, etahi kakahu hiako mo Arama raua ko tana wahine, a whakakakahuria ana raua.
And the LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and He clothed them.
22 Na ka mea a Ihowa, te Atua, Nana, kua rite nei te tangata ki tetahi o tatou, te mohio ki te pai, ki te kino: na kei totoro atu tona ringa aianei, kei tango i tetahi o nga hua o te rakau o te ora, kei kai, a ka ora tonu:
Then the LORD God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil. And now, lest he reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever...”
23 Koia i tonoa atu ai ia e Ihowa, e te Atua, i te kari o Erene hei ngaki i te oneone i tangohia mai nei ia i reira.
Therefore the LORD God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken.
24 Heoi peia ana e ia te tangata; a whakanohoia ana ki te taha ki te rawhiti o te kari o Erene tetahi Kerupima, me tetahi hoari mura, he mea piupiu tonu ki tetahi taha, ki tetahi taha, hei tiaki i te huarahi ki te rakau o te ora.
So He drove out the man and stationed cherubim on the east side of the Garden of Eden, along with a whirling sword of flame to guard the way to the tree of life.
