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 shrewd than any of the wild animals which God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God really said, 'You shall not eat of any tree of the garden?'"
2 A ka mea te wahine ki te nakahi, E kai ano maua i nga hua o nga rakau o te kari:
And the woman said to the serpent, "Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat,
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 of the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God has said, 'You shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.'"
4 Na ko te meatanga a te nakahi ki te wahine, E kore korua e mate rawa:
The serpent said to the woman, "You won't surely die,
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 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 that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit, and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate.
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.
The eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked. So they sewed fig leaves together, 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.
They heard the voice of God walking in the garden during the breeze of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of 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?
So God called to the man, and said to him, "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.
And he said, "I heard your voice in the garden, 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?
And he said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?"
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.
The man said, "The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate."
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 God said to the woman, "What is this you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, 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 God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, cursed are you above every tame animal, and above every wild animal. On your belly you shall go, and you shall eat dust 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.
I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise 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.
And to the woman he said, "I will greatly multiply 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;
To Adam he said, "Because you have listened to your wife's voice, and have eaten of the tree, of which I commanded you, saying, 'You shall not eat of it,' cursed is the ground for your sake. In 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;
Thorns also and thistles will it bring forth to 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 face will you eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. For you are dust, 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.
The man called his wife Eve, because she was the mother of all living.
21 Na ka hanga e Ihowa, e te atua, etahi kakahu hiako mo Arama raua ko tana wahine, a whakakakahuria ana raua.
And God made clothing out of skins for Adam and for his wife, and 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 God said, "Look, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil. So now, let us send him out, lest he reach out his hand and also take of 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 Jehovah sent him out of the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was 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 he stationed the cherubim at the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword which turned every direction, to guard the way to the tree of life.
