< 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 subtle than any animal of the field which Yahweh God had made. He said to the woman, “Has God really said, ‘You shall not eat of any tree of the garden’?”
2 स्त्रीले सर्पलाई भनिन्, “हामीले बगैँचाका रुखहरूका सबै फल खान सक्छौँ,
The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from 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 not the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden. God has said, ‘You shall not eat of it. You shall not touch it, lest you die.’”
4 सर्पले स्त्रीलाई भन्यो, “निश्चय नै तिमीहरू मर्नेछैनौ ।
The serpent said to the woman, “You won’t really 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 you eat 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 that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took some of its fruit, and ate. Then she gave some to her husband with her, and he ate it, too.
7 तब तिनीहरू दुवैका आँखा खुले, र तिनीहरू नाङ्गै रहेछन् भनेर थाहा पाए । तिनीहरूले अञ्जीरका पातहरू गाँसेर आफ्ना निम्ति वस्त्र बनाए ।
Their eyes were opened, and they both knew that they were naked. They sewed fig leaves together, 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।
They heard Yahweh God’s voice walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Yahweh God among the trees of the garden.
9 परमप्रभु परमेश्वरले मानिसलाई बोलाउनुभयो, “तँ कहाँ छस्?”
Yahweh God called to the man, and said to him, “Where are you?”
10 मानिसले भन्यो, “मैले बगैँचामा तपाईंको आवाज सुनेँ, र म डराएँ किनकि म नाङ्गै थिएँ । यसैकारण म लुकेँ ।”
The man said, “I heard your voice in the garden, 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?”
God said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
12 मानिसले भन्यो, “तपाईंले मसँगै रहनलाई दिनुभएको स्त्रीले मलाई त्यस रुखको फल दिई, र मैले त्यो खाएँ ।”
The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with 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 ।”
Yahweh God said to the woman, “What have you done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived 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 ।
Yahweh God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, you are cursed above all livestock, and above every animal of the field. You shall go on your belly and you shall eat dust 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 ।”
I will put hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will 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 your pain in childbirth. You will bear children in pain. 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 ।
To Adam he said, “Because you have listened to your wife’s voice, and have eaten from the tree, about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it,’ the ground is cursed for your sake. You will eat from it with much labor all the days of your life.
18 त्यसले तेरो निम्ति काँढा र सिउँडीहरू उमार्नेछ, र तैँले खेतका बिरुवाहरू खानेछस् ।
It will yield thorns and thistles to you; and you will 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 ।”
You will eat bread by the sweat of your face until you return to the ground, for you were taken out of it. For you are dust, and you shall return to dust.”
20 मानिसले आफ्नी पत्नीको नाम हव्वा राख्यो किनकि तिनी सबै जीवित प्राणीकी आमा हुन् ।
The man called 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 ।
Yahweh God made garments of animal skins for Adam and for his wife, 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 ।”
Yahweh God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil. Now, lest he reach out his hand, and also take 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 Yahweh God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which 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 cherubim at the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life.
