< 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 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 स्त्रीले सर्पलाई भनिन्, “हामीले बगैँचाका रुखहरूका सबै फल खान सक्छौँ,
The woman answered the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden,
3 तर बगैँचाको बिचमा भएको रुखको फलको विषयमा भने, परमेश्वरले भन्नुभएको छ, ‘तिमीहरूले त्यो नखानू, न त तिमीहरूले त्यो छुनू, नत्रता तिमीहरू मर्नेछौ ।’”
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 सर्पले स्त्रीलाई भन्यो, “निश्चय नै तिमीहरू मर्नेछैनौ ।
“You will not surely die,” the serpent told her.
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 you eat of it, your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, 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 ।
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 तब तिनीहरू दुवैका आँखा खुले, र तिनीहरू नाङ्गै रहेछन् भनेर थाहा पाए । तिनीहरूले अञ्जीरका पातहरू गाँसेर आफ्ना निम्ति वस्त्र बनाए ।
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 अनि साँझपख जब तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु परमेश्वर बगैँचामा हिँडिरहनुभएको आवाज सुने, तब मानिस र उनकी पत्नी बगैँचाका रुखहरूबिच परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको नजरबाट लुके।
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 परमप्रभु परमेश्वरले मानिसलाई बोलाउनुभयो, “तँ कहाँ छस्?”
But the LORD God called out to the man, “Where are you?”
10 मानिसले भन्यो, “मैले बगैँचामा तपाईंको आवाज सुनेँ, र म डराएँ किनकि म नाङ्गै थिएँ । यसैकारण म लुकेँ ।”
“I heard Your voice in the garden,” he replied, “and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid myself.”
11 परमेश्वरले भन्नुभयो, “तँ नाङ्गै थिइस् भनेर तँलाई कसले भन्यो? के मैले तँलाई नखानू भनेर आज्ञा गरेको रुखको फल तैँले खाइस्?”
“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 मानिसले भन्यो, “तपाईंले मसँगै रहनलाई दिनुभएको स्त्रीले मलाई त्यस रुखको फल दिई, र मैले त्यो खाएँ ।”
And the man answered, “The woman whom You gave me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
13 परमप्रभु परमेश्वरले स्त्रीलाई भन्नुभयो, “तैँले यो के गरिस्?” स्त्रीले भनिन्, “सर्पले मलाई छल गर्यो, र मैले खाएँ ।”
Then the LORD God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” “The serpent deceived me,” she replied, “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 ।
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 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 you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He will crush your head, and you will strike 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 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 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 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 त्यसले तेरो निम्ति काँढा र सिउँडीहरू उमार्नेछ, र तैँले खेतका बिरुवाहरू खानेछस् ।
Both thorns and thistles it will yield for you, and you will eat the plants 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 ।”
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 मानिसले आफ्नी पत्नीको नाम हव्वा राख्यो किनकि तिनी सबै जीवित प्राणीकी आमा हुन् ।
And Adam named his wife Eve, because she would be the mother of all the living.
21 परमप्रभु परमेश्वरले आदम र उनकी पत्नीका निम्ति छालाका लुगा बनाई तिनीहरूलाई पहिराइदिनुभयो ।
And the LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and He 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 ।”
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 त्यसैकारण जुन भूमिबाट त्यो निकालिएको थियो त्यही भूमिमा खेतीपाती गर्न परमप्रभु परमेश्वरले त्यसलाई अदनको बगैँचाबाट निकालिदिनुभयो ।
Therefore the LORD God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been 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 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.
