< UGenesisi 3 >
1 Inyoka yayilobuqili-ke kulayo yonke inyamazana yeganga, eyayiyenzile iNkosi uNkulunkulu. Yasisithi kowesifazana: Yebo uNkulunkulu watsho yini ukuthi: Kumele lingadli kuso sonke isihlahla sesivande?
Na ɔwɔ yɛ ɔdaadaafo wɔ wuram mmoadoma a Awurade Nyankopɔn abɔ wɔn no nyinaa mu. Ɔwɔ no kɔɔ ɔbea no nkyɛn kobisaa no se, “Enti ɛyɛ ampa ara sɛ, Onyankopɔn se, ‘Munnni turo yi mu aduaba biara?’”
2 Owesifazana wasesithi enyokeni: Singadla okwesithelo sezihlahla zesivande;
Ɔbea no buaa ɔwɔ se, “Yetumi di nnua a ɛwɔ turo yi mu no so aduaba biara,
3 kodwa okwesithelo sesihlahla esiphakathi kwesivande, uNkulunkulu wathi: Lingadli kuso, njalo lingasithinti, hlezi life.
nanso Onyankopɔn kae se, ‘Ɛnsɛ sɛ yedi dua a esi turo no mfimfini no so aduaba, na ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛde yɛn nsa mpo ka, anyɛ saa a yebewu.’”
4 Inyoka yasisithi kowesifazana: Kaliyikufa sibili.
Na ɔwɔ no ka kyerɛɛ ɔbea no se, “Morenwuwu.
5 Ngoba uNkulunkulu uyazi ukuthi mhla lisidla kuso, amehlo enu azavuleka, njalo libe njengoNkulunkulu, lisazi okuhle lokubi.
Mmom, Onyankopɔn nim sɛ, da a mubedi no ara pɛ, mo ani bɛba mo ho so, ama moayɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn, na moahu papa ne bɔne.”
6 Owesifazana ebona-ke ukuthi isihlahla silungile ukuba yikudla, lokuthi sona siyabukeka emehlweni, lesihlahla sikhwabitheka ukwenza uhlakaniphe, wakha okwesithelo saso, wadla; wasenika lendoda yakhe kanye laye, yasisidla.
Bere a ɔbea no huu sɛ dua a esi mfimfini no so aba no wodi a, ɛbɛyɛ yie, na ɛyɛ akɔnnɔ, na afei ɛtew ani no, ɔtew bi dii, de bi maa ne kunu a na ɔne no wɔ hɔ no, maa ɔno nso dii.
7 Asevuleka amehlo abo bobabili, basebesazi ukuthi babenqunu; basebethungela ndawonye amahlamvu omkhiwa, bazenzela amafasikoti.
Wodi wiee no, wɔn baanu ani baa wɔn ho so, na wohuu sɛ wɔn nyinaa da adagyaw. Enti wɔkekaa nhaban sisii anim, de kataa wɔn adagyaw so.
8 Basebesizwa ilizwi leNkosi uNkulunkulu ihamba esivandeni ekupholeni kosuku; uAdamu lomkakhe basebecatsha ebusweni beNkosi uNkulunkulu phakathi kwezihlahla zesivande.
Da no anwummere, wɔtee Awurade Nyankopɔn nka sɛ ɔnam turo no mu; enti Adam ne ne yere Hawa de wɔn ho kosiee nnua a ɛwɔ turo mu hɔ no mu sɛnea Awurade Nyankopɔn renhu wɔn.
9 INkosi uNkulunkulu yasibiza uAdamu, yathi kuye: Ungaphi?
Na Awurade Nyankopɔn frɛɛ Adam bisaa no se, “Mowɔ he?”
10 Wasesithi: Ilizwi lakho ngilizwe esivandeni, ngesaba, ngoba nginqunu; ngasengicatsha.
Adam buae se, “Metee wo nka wɔ turo no mu hɔ, nanso na misuro, efisɛ na meda adagyaw nti mekɔtɛwee.”
11 Yasisithi: Ngubani okutshele ukuthi unqunu? Udlile yini okwesihlahla, engakulaya ngaso ukuthi ungadli okwaso?
Na Onyankopɔn bisaa no se, “Hena na ɔka kyerɛɛ wo se na woda adagyaw? Woadi dua a meka kyerɛɛ wo se nni so aba no bi ana?”
12 UAdamu wasesithi: Owesifazana owangipha yena ukuthi abe lami, yena unginike okwesihlahla, ngasengisidla.
Adam kae se, “Yiw, nanso ɔbea no a wode no maa me sɛ me ne no ntena no na ɔde aduaba a ɔtew fii dua no so no brɛɛ me maa midii.”
13 INkosi uNkulunkulu yasisithi kowesifazana: Kuyini lokhu okwenzileyo? Owesifazana wasesithi: Inyoka ingikhohlisile, ngasengisidla.
Enti Awurade Nyankopɔn bisaa ɔbea no se, “Dɛn na woayɛ yi?” Ɔbea no buae se, “Ɔwɔ no na ɔdaadaa me ma midii.”
14 INkosi uNkulunkulu yasisithi enyokeni: Njengoba usukwenzile lokhu, uqalekisiwe wena okwedlula sonke isifuyo lokwedlula yonke inyamazana yeganga. Uzahamba ngesisu sakho, njalo udle uthuli insuku zonke zempilo yakho.
Enti Awurade Nyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ ɔwɔ no se, “Esiane saa ade a woayɛ yi nti, “Wɔadome wo wɔ mmoa nyinaa ne nkekaboa mu. Wobɛwea wʼafuru so, na wo nkwanna nyinaa woadi mfutuma.
15 Njalo ngizafaka ubutha phakathi kwakho lowesifazana laphakathi kwenzalo yakho lenzalo yakhe. Yona izakuchoboza ikhanda, wena uzayichoboza isithende.
Mede ɔtan bɛto wo ne ɔbea no ne wʼasefo ne nʼasefo ntam. Ɔno na ɔbɛbɔ wo ti, na wo nso woaka ne nantin.”
16 Kowesifazana yathi: Ngokwandisa ngizakwandisa ubuhlungu bakho lokuzithwala kwakho; ngobuhlungu uzabeletha abantwana, lokukhanuka kwakho kuzakuba sendodeni yakho, njalo yona izakubusa.
Afei, Awurade Nyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ ɔbea no nso se, “Wobɛte ɔyaw pa ara wɔ wʼawo mu; ɔyaw mu na wobɛwo mma. Eyi nyinaa akyi no, wʼani begyina wo kunu na obedi wo so.”
17 Njalo kuAdamu yathi: Njengoba ulalele ilizwi lomkakho, wasusidla okwesihlahla engakulaya ngaso ukuthi: Ungadli okwaso, uqalekisiwe umhlaba ngenxa yakho; ngokukhathazeka uzakudla okwawo insuku zonke zempilo yakho.
Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Adam nso se, “Esiane sɛ wutiee wo yere asɛm, na wudii dua a mehyɛɛ wo se, ‘nni so aba no’ nti, “Madome asase, na ɔbrɛ ne ɔhaw mu na wubedidi so wo nkwanna nyinaa.
18 Njalo uzakumilisela ameva lokhula oluhlabayo, ubususidla imibhida yeganga.
Ebefifi nsɔe ne nkyɛkyerɛ ama wo na woadi wuram nhaban.
19 Ngesithukuthuku sobuso bakho uzakudla ukudla, uze ubuyele emhlabathini, ngoba wathathwa kuwo; ngoba wena uluthuli, njalo uzabuyela ethulini.
Wubesiam wʼanim fifiri ansa na woanya aduan adi, kosi sɛ wubewu akɔ dɔte mu, efisɛ dɔte no mu na menwen wo fii; woyɛ dɔte, na dɔte mu na wobɛsan akɔ.”
20 UAdamu wasebiza ibizo lomkakhe ngokuthi nguEva, ngoba yena ungunina wabo bonke abaphilayo.
Adam too ne yere no din Hawa, efisɛ ɔno na ɔbɛyɛ ateasefo nyinaa na.
21 INkosi uNkulunkulu yasisenzela uAdamu lomkakhe izigqoko zezigogo, yasibagqokisa.
Awurade Nyankopɔn de aboa nhoma yɛɛ ntade maa Adam ne ne yere Hawa de kataa wɔn ho.
22 INkosi uNkulunkulu yasisithi: Khangela, umuntu usenjengomunye wethu, esazi okuhle lokubi. Khathesi-ke, hlezi elule isandla sakhe athathe njalo okwesihlahla sempilo, adle aphile kuze kube sephakadeni.
Awurade Nyankopɔn kae se, “Afei, onipa no abɛyɛ sɛ yɛn ara a, wahu papa ne bɔne. Ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛma no kwan na ɔteɛ ne nsa kɔtew nkwa dua no so aba no bi di, na ɔtena ase afebɔɔ.”
23 Ngakho iNkosi uNkulunkulu yamkhupha esivandeni seEdeni ukuthi alime umhlabathi, lapho athathwa khona.
Enti Awurade Nyankopɔn pam no fii Eden turo no mu sɛ ɔnkɔyɛ adwuma wɔ asase a wɔnwenee no fii mu no so.
24 Yasimxotsha umuntu; yabeka empumalanga kwesivande seEdeni amakherubhi lenkemba evuthayo ephenduphendukayo, ukulinda indlela yesihlahla sempilo.
Ɔpam onipa no, ɔde Kerubim ne afoa a ɛdɛw twaa ne ho fa baabiara no sii Eden turo no apuei fam sɛ ɛnwɛn ɔkwan a ɛkɔ nkwa dua no ho no.
