< उत्पत्ति 3 >

1 परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले बनाउनुभएका सबै जङ्गली पशुहरूमध्ये सर्पचाहिँ बढी धूर्त थियो । त्यसले स्‍त्रीलाई भन्यो, “के परमेश्‍वरले साँच्‍चै नै तिमीहरूलाई बगैँचाको कुनै रुखको फल नखानू भनी भन्‍नुभएको छ?”
Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which Jehovah God had made. And he said to the woman, Yea, has God said, Ye shall not eat of any tree of the garden?
2 स्‍त्रीले सर्पलाई भनिन्, “हामीले बगैँचाका रुखहरूका सबै फल खान सक्छौँ,
And the woman said to the serpent, Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat,
3 तर बगैँचाको बिचमा भएको रुखको फलको विषयमा भने, परमेश्‍वरले भन्‍नुभएको छ, ‘तिमीहरूले त्यो नखानू, न त तिमीहरूले त्यो छुनू, नत्रता तिमीहरू मर्नेछौ ।’”
but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, Ye shall not eat of it, nor shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
4 सर्पले स्‍त्रीलाई भन्यो, “निश्‍चय नै तिमीहरू मर्नेछैनौ ।
And the serpent said to the woman, Ye shall not surely die.
5 किनभने परमेश्‍वर जान्‍नुहुन्छ, कि जुन दिन तिमीहरू त्यो खान्छौ तिमीहरूका आँखा खुल्नेछन्, र असल र खराबको ज्ञान पाएर तिमीहरू परमेश्‍वरजस्तै हुनेछौ ।”
For God knows that in the day ye eat of it, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
6 जब स्‍त्रीले त्यो रुखको फल खानमा असल, र हेर्नमा रहरलाग्दो, अनि बुद्धि प्राप्‍त गर्नलाई त्यसको चाह गर्नुपर्ने रहेछ भनेर देखिन्, तिनले त्यसका केही फलहरू टिपिन् र खाइन् । त्यसपछि तिनले केही आफूसँगै भएका आफ्ना पतिलाई पनि दिइन्, र उनले पनि त्यो खाए ।
And 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 wise, she took of the fruit of it, and ate. And she also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.
7 तब तिनीहरू दुवैका आँखा खुले, र तिनीहरू नाङ्‍गै रहेछन् भनेर थाहा पाए । तिनीहरूले अञ्‍जीरका पातहरू गाँसेर आफ्ना निम्ति वस्‍त्र बनाए ।
And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.
8 अनि साँझपख जब तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर बगैँचामा हिँडिरहनुभएको आवाज सुने, तब मानिस र उनकी पत्‍नी बगैँचाका रुखहरूबिच परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरको नजरबाट लुके।
And they heard the voice of Jehovah God walking in the garden in the cool of the day. And the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Jehovah God amongst the trees of the garden.
9 परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले मानिसलाई बोलाउनुभयो, “तँ कहाँ छस्?”
And Jehovah God called to the man, and said to him, Where are thou?
10 मानिसले भन्यो, “मैले बगैँचामा तपाईंको आवाज सुनेँ, र म डराएँ किनकि म नाङ्‍गै थिएँ । यसैकारण म लुकेँ ।”
And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked. And I hid myself.
11 परमेश्‍वरले भन्‍नुभयो, “तँ नाङ्‍गै थिइस् भनेर तँलाई कसले भन्यो? के मैले तँलाई नखानू भनेर आज्ञा गरेको रुखको फल तैँले खाइस्?”
And he said, Who told thee that thou was naked? Have thou eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee that thou should not eat?
12 मानिसले भन्यो, “तपाईंले मसँगै रहनलाई दिनुभएको स्‍त्रीले मलाई त्यस रुखको फल दिई, र मैले त्यो खाएँ ।”
And the man said, The woman whom thou gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.
13 परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले स्‍त्रीलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तैँले यो के गरिस्?” स्‍त्रीले भनिन्, “सर्पले मलाई छल गर्‍यो, र मैले खाएँ ।”
And Jehovah God said to the woman, What is this thou have done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I ate.
14 परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले सर्पलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “तैँले यसो गरेको हुनाले सबै पाल्तु पशुहरू र जङ्गली जनावरहरूमा केवल तँ श्रापित हुनेछस् । तँ तेरो पेटद्वारा हिँड्नेछस्, र तेरो जीवनभरि नै तैँले माटो खानेछस् ।
And Jehovah God said to the serpent, Because thou have done this, cursed are thou above all cattle, and above every beast of the field. Upon thy belly thou shall go, and dust thou shall eat all the days of thy life.
15 तेरो र स्‍त्रीबिच, अनि तेरो सन्तान र स्‍त्रीको सन्तानबिच म दुश्मनी हालिदिनेछु । त्यसले तेरो शिर कुल्चनेछ, र तैँले त्यसको कुर्कुच्‍चा डस्‍नेछस् ।”
And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed. He shall bruise thy head, and thou shall bruise his heel.
16 उहाँले स्‍त्रीलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “म तेरो प्रसव-वेदना ज्यादै बढाइदिनेछु; तैँले पीडामा नै बालक जन्माउनेछस् । तेरो इच्छा तेरो पतिको लागि हुनेछ, तर त्यसले तँलाई आफ्नो अधीनमा राख्‍नेछ ।”
To the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy pain and thy childbearing, in pain thou shall bring forth children. And thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
17 आदमलाई उहाँले भन्‍नुभयो, “तैँले तेरी पत्‍नीको कुरा सुनेको, र मैले तँलाई नखानू भनेको रुखको फल तैँले खाएको हुनाले, तेरो कारण यो भूमि श्रापित भएको छ । तेरो जीवनभरि नै तैँले यस भूमिमाथि कडा परिश्रम गरेर खानेछस् ।
And to Adam he said, Because thou have hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and have eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shall not eat of it, cursed is the ground for thy sake. In toil thou shall eat of it all the days of thy life.
18 त्यसले तेरो निम्ति काँढा र सिउँडीहरू उमार्नेछ, र तैँले खेतका बिरुवाहरू खानेछस् ।
Also, thorns and thistles it shall bring forth to thee, and thou shall eat the herb of the field.
19 तँ माटोमा नफर्कुन्जेल, तैँले आफ्नो परिश्रमको पसिना बगाएर भोजन खानेछस्, किनकि तँ माटैबाट निकालिएको थिइस् । तँ माटै होस्, र माटोमा नै फर्किजानेछस् ।”
In the sweat of thy face thou shall eat bread, till thou return to the ground, for out of it thou were taken. For thou are dust, and to dust thou shall return.
20 मानिसले आफ्नी पत्‍नीको नाम हव्‍वा राख्‍यो किनकि तिनी सबै जीवित प्राणीकी आमा हुन् ।
And the man called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.
21 परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले आदम र उनकी पत्‍नीका निम्ति छालाका लुगा बनाई तिनीहरूलाई पहिराइदिनुभयो ।
And Jehovah God made for Adam and for his wife coats of skins, and clothed them.
22 परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले भन्‍नुभयो, “असल र खराबको ज्ञान पाएर मानिस हामीजस्तै भएको छ । यसैकारण अब त्यसलाई आफ्नो हात पसारेर जीवनको रुखको फल खान दिनुहुँदैन नत्रता त्यो सधैँभरि जीवित रहला ।”
And Jehovah God said, Behold, the man has become as one of us, to know good and evil, and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever-
23 त्यसैकारण जुन भूमिबाट त्यो निकालिएको थियो त्यही भूमिमा खेतीपाती गर्न परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले त्यसलाई अदनको बगैँचाबाट निकालिदिनुभयो ।
therefore Jehovah God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from where he was taken.
24 परमेश्‍वरले मानिसलाई बगैँचाबाट निकालिदिनुभएपछि जीवनको रुखतर्फको मार्गमा पहरा दिन उहाँले अदनको बगैँचाको पूर्वमा करूबहरू र चारैदिशातर्फ घुमिरहने ज्वालामय तरवार राखिदिनुभयो ।
So he drove out the man. And he placed at the east of the garden of Eden the cherubim, and the flame of a sword which turned every way, to guard the way of the tree of life.
