< Uumama 3 >
1 Bineensa Waaqayyo Waaqni uume hunda keessaa bofti haxxee ture. Dubartittiidhaanis, “Dhuguma Waaqni, ‘Muka iddoo biqiltuu keessa jiru kam irraa iyyuu hin nyaatinaa’ isiniin jedheeraa?” jedhe.
The snake was more cunning than all the other wild animals that Yahweh God had made. [One day Satan gave to] the snake [the ability to talk to the woman]. The snake said to her, “Did God really say to you, ‘Do not eat the fruit from any of the trees in the park/garden’?”
2 Dubartittiinis deebiftee bofa sanaan akkana jette; “Ija mukkeen iddoo biqiltuu keessa jiranii nyaachuu ni dandeenya;
The woman replied, “[What God said was], ‘Do not eat the fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the park/garden or touch it. If you do that, you will die. But you can eat fruit from any of the other trees.’”
3 garuu Waaqni, ‘Muka walakkaa iddoo biqiltuu sanaa keessa jiru irraa ija hin nyaatinaa; ittis hin buʼinaa; yoo kanaa achii ni duutuu’ jedheera.”
4 Bofichis deebisee dubartittiidhaan akkana jedhe; “Isin dhugumaan hin duutan.
The snake said to the woman, “No, you will certainly not die. God said that
5 Waaqni akka yommuu isin ija mukichaa nyaattan iji keessan banamu, akka isin waan gaarii fi waan hamaa beekuudhaan akka Waaqaa taatan ni beekaatii.”
[only] because he knows that when you eat fruit from that tree, [you will understand new things. It will be as though] your eyes are opened [MET], and you will know what is good [to do] and what is evil [to do], just as God does.”
6 Dubartittiinis yommuu akka iji mukichaa nyaataaf gaarii, kan ija namaatti tolu, ogummaa argachuufis akka nama gojomaasisu argitetti fudhattee nyaatte. Dhirsi ishees ishee wajjin ture; isaafis ni laatte; innis ni nyaate.
The woman saw that the fruit on that tree was good to eat, and it was very beautiful, and she desired it because [she thought] it would make her wise. So she picked some of the fruit and ate it. Then she gave some to her husband, and he ate it.
7 Iji lachan isaaniis ni baname; qullaa hafuu isaaniis beekan; kanaafis baala harbuu hodhanii marxoo tolfatan.
Immediately [it was as though] their eyes were opened, and they realized that they were naked, so they were ashamed. So they [picked] some fig leaves and fastened them together to make clothes for themselves.
8 Akkuma aduun qabbanoofteenis namichii fi niitiin isaa utuu Waaqayyo Waaqni iddoo biqiltuu sana keessa deemuu sagalee isaa dhagaʼan; isaanis mukkeen iddoo biqiltuu keessa Waaqayyo Waaqa duraa dhokatan.
[Late that afternoon], when a cool breeze was blowing, they heard the sound/footsteps of Yahweh as he was walking in the park/garden. So the man and his wife hid themselves among the bushes in the park/garden, [so that Yahweh God would not see them].
9 Waaqayyo Waaqni garuu namicha waamee, “Ati eessa jirta?” jedheen.
But Yahweh God called to the man, saying to him, “Why are you [trying to hide from me]?”
10 Namichis deebisee, “Ani utuu ati iddoo biqiltuu keessa deemtuu nan dhagaʼe; waan qullaa koo tureefis nan sodaadhe; nan dhokadhes” jedheen.
The man replied, “I heard the sound of your [footsteps/walking] in the garden, and I was naked, so I was afraid and I hid myself.”
11 Innis, “Eenyutu akka ati qullaa taate sitti hime? Muka ani ija isaa hin nyaatin jedhee si ajaje sana irraa nyaatte moo?” jedheen.
God said, “How did you find out you were naked [RHQ]? It must be because you ate some of the fruit [from the tree] that I told you, ‘Do not eat its fruit.’” [RHQ]
12 Namichis, “Dubartittii ati akka isheen na wajjin jiraattuuf naa kennite sanatu ija mukichaa irraa naa kenne; anis nan nyaadhe” jedhe.
The man said, “You gave me this woman to be with me. She is the one who gave me some of the fruit from that tree, and so I ate it.”
13 Waaqayyo Waaqnis dubartittiidhaan, “Wanni ati hojjette kun maali?” jedhe. Dubartittiin immoo, “Bofti na gowwoomsinaanan nyaadhe” jette.
Then Yahweh God said to the woman, “Why did you do such a thing?” The woman replied, “I ate some of the fruit because the snake deceived me.”
14 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Waaqni bofichaan akkana jedhe; “Ati sababii waan kana gooteef, “Horii hundumaa keessaa, bineensa hundumaa keessaas kan abaaramte ni taata! Bara jireenya keetii guutuu garaa keetiin lafa irra loota; biyyoo illee ni nyaatta.
Then Yahweh God said to the snake, “Because you did this, of all the livestock and the wild animals, I will curse/punish you alone. As a result, you [and all other snakes] will scurry across the ground on your bellies, and so what you eat will have dirt [on it] as long as you live.
15 Siʼii fi dubartittii, sanyii keetii fi sanyii ishee gidduutti diinummaa nan uuma; inni mataa kee ni tuma; atis koomee isaa ni iddita.”
And I will cause you and the woman to act in a hostile way toward each other, and I will cause your brood and her descendants to act hostilely toward each other. You will strike at the heel [of one descendant] of hers, but he will strike your head.”
16 Dubartittiidhaanis akkana jedhe; “Yommuu ati mucaa deessutti ani dhiphina kee akka malee nan baayʼisa; ciniinsuudhaanis ijoollee ni deessa. Fedhiin kee garuma dhirsa keetii taʼa; innis sirratti ol aantummaa qabaata.”
Then Yahweh said to the woman, “You will have great pain when you give birth to children; you will suffer great pain as your children are being born [DOU]. You will greatly desire your husband [to show affection for you], but he will rule over you.”
17 Addaamiin immoo akkana jedhe; “Waan ati dubbii niitii keetii dhageessee muka ani ija isaa irraa, ‘hin nyaatin’ jedhe irraa nyaatteef, “Lafti sababii keetiif kan abaaramte taati; atis bara jireenya keetii guutuu dadhabbiidhaan ishee irraa nyaatta.
Then Yahweh said to the man, “You heeded what your wife said, and you ate some of the fruit [of the tree] concerning which I commanded you saying, ‘Do not eat it.’ So I will make it difficult [to grow things in] the ground because of what you did. You will have to work hard as long as you live to produce things from the ground to eat.
18 Isheen qoraattii fi sokorruu sitti biqilchiti; atis biqiltuu lafaa ni nyaatta.
Thornbushes and thistle plants and other weeds will grow [and prevent what you have planted from growing]. And for food, you will have to eat things that just grow in your fields.
19 Ati waan lafa irraa argamteef, hamma lafatti deebitutti dafqa fuula keetiitiin buddeena nyaatta; waan biyyoo taateefis, gara biyyootti deebita.”
[All your life] you will sweat as you work hard to produce food to eat. Then you will die [EUP], and your [body will be buried] in the ground. [I made] you from soil, so when you [die and are buried your body will decay] and become soil again.”
20 Addaamis sababii isheen haadha jiraatoo hundaa taateef niitii isaa “Hewaan” jedhee moggaase.
[The man, whose name was] Adam, named his wife Eve, [which means ‘living’], because she became the ancestor of all living people.
21 Waaqayyo Waaqni Addaamii fi Hewaaniif gogaa irraa uffata hojjetee isaanitti uffise.
Then Yahweh God [killed some animals and] made clothes from their skins for Adam and his wife.
22 Waaqayyo Waaqnis, “Kunoo namni waan gaarii fi waan hamaa beekuudhaan nu keessaa akka isa tokkoo taʼeera. Ammas harka isaa hiixatee, ija muka jireenyaa ciratee nyaachuun, bara baraanis jiraachuun isaaf eeyyamamuu hin qabu” jedhe.
Then Yahweh said, “Look! Those two have become like us because they know what is good [to do] and what is evil [to do]. So now, it will not be good if they reach out and pick and eat [some of the fruit from] the tree [which enables people who eat it] to live [forever]!”
23 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Waaqni lafa biqiltuu Eeden keessaa namicha baasee akka inni lafuma irraa argame sana misoomsu godhe.
So Yahweh God expelled the man and his wife from the garden of Eden. Yahweh God had created Adam from the ground, but now he forced him to till that ground [so that he could grow food to eat].
24 Erga nama achii baasee booddee karaa muka jireenyaatti geessu eegsisuuf jedhee kiirubeelotaa fi goraadee bobaʼu kan asii fi achi gaggaragalu tokko Iddoo Biqiltuu Eedeniitiin gama baʼa biiftuu kaaʼe.
After Yahweh expelled them, on the east side of the garden he placed (cherubim/creatures with wings) and [an angel holding] a flaming sword which flashed back and forth. He did that in order to block the entrance to the garden, so that people could not go back to the tree that enables people [who eat its fruit] to live [forever].
