< 1 Mojzes 3 >

1 Torej kača [pa] je bila bolj premetena kakor katerakoli izmed poljskih živali, ki jih je Gospod Bog naredil. In rekla je ženski: »Da, ali je Bog res rekel: ›Ne bosta jedla od vsakega vrtnega drevesa?‹«
However, the serpent was more crafty than any of the creatures of the earth that the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Why has God instructed you, that you should not eat from every tree of Paradise?”
2 In ženska je rekla kači: »Midva lahko jeva od sadja vrtnih dreves,
The woman responded to him: “From the fruit of the trees which are in Paradise, we eat.
3 toda o sadu drevesa, ki je v sredi vrta, je Bog rekel: ›Ne bosta jedla od njega niti se ga ne bosta dotikala, da ne bi umrla.‹«
Yet truly, from the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of Paradise, God has instructed us that we should not eat, and that we should not touch it, lest perhaps we may die.”
4 Kača je ženski rekla: »Zagotovo ne bosta umrla,
Then the serpent said to the woman: “By no means will you die a death.
5 kajti Bog ve, da se bodo na dan, ko bosta od njega jedla, vajine oči potem odprle in bosta kakor bogovi, poznavajoč dobro in zlo.«
For God knows that, on whatever day you will eat from it, your eyes will be opened; and you will be like gods, knowing good and evil.”
6 In ko je ženska videla, da je bilo drevo dobro za jed in da je bilo prijetno očem in da si je drevesa želeti, da naredi nekoga modrega, je vzela od njegovega sadu in jedla ter dala tudi svojemu soprogu, [ki je bil] z njo, in on je jedel.
And so the woman saw that the tree was good to eat, and beautiful to the eyes, and delightful to consider. And she took from its fruit, and she ate. And she gave to her husband, who ate.
7 Oči so se obema odprle in spoznala sta, da sta bila naga. Skupaj sta sešila figove liste ter si naredila predpasnika.
And the eyes of them both were opened. And when they realized themselves to be naked, they joined together fig leaves and made coverings for themselves.
8 In zaslišala sta šum Gospoda Boga, ki je v svežini dneva hodil po vrtu, in Adam ter njegova žena sta se pred prisotnostjo Gospoda Boga skrila med vrtna drevesa.
And when they had heard the voice of the Lord God taking a walk in Paradise in the afternoon breeze, Adam and his wife hid themselves from the face of the Lord God in the midst of the trees of Paradise.
9 Gospod Bog je zaklical Adamu in mu rekel: »Kje si?«
And the Lord God called Adam and said to him: “Where are you?”
10 Ta je rekel: »Zaslišal sem tvoj šum na vrtu in sem se zbal, ker sem bil nag, in sem se skril.«
And he said, “I heard your voice in Paradise, and I was afraid, because I was naked, and so I hid myself.”
11 Rekel je: »Kdo ti je povedal, da si bil nag? Mar si jedel od drevesa, od katerega sem ti zapovedal, da ne bi smel jesti?«
He said to him, “Then who told you that you were naked, if you have not eaten of the tree from which I instructed you that you should not eat?”
12 Mož je rekel: »Ženska, ki si mi jo dal, da je z menoj, ona mi je dala od drevesa in sem jedel.«
And Adam said, “The woman, whom you gave to me as a companion, gave to me from the tree, and I ate.”
13 Gospod Bog je rekel ženski: »Kaj je to, kar si storila?« Ženska je rekla: »Kača me je preslepila in sem jedla.«
And the Lord God said to the woman, “Why have you done this?” And she responded, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
14 Gospod Bog je rekel kači: »Ker si to storila, si prekleta nad vso živino in nad vsako poljsko živaljo. Po svojem trebuhu boš šla in prah boš jedla vse dni svojega življenja.
And the Lord God said to the serpent: “Because you have done this, you are cursed among all living things, even the wild beasts of the earth. Upon your breast shall you travel, and the ground shall you eat, all the days of your life.
15 Postavil bom sovraštvo med teboj in žensko in med tvoje seme in njeno seme; to ti zdrobi glavo, ti pa boš ranila njegovo peto.«
I will put enmities between you and the woman, between your offspring and her offspring. She will crush your head, and you will lie in wait for her heel.”
16 Ženski je rekel: »Silno bom pomnožil tvojo bridkost in tvoje spočetje. V bridkosti boš rojevala otroke, in tvoje hrepenenje bo k tvojemu soprogu in on bo vladal nad teboj.«
To the woman, he also said: “I will multiply your labors and your conceptions. In pain shall you give birth to sons, and you shall be under your husband’s power, and he shall have dominion over you.”
17 Adamu pa je rekel: »Ker si prisluhnil glasu svoje žene in si jedel od drevesa, o katerem sem ti zapovedal, rekoč: ›Ne boš jedel od njega; ‹ prekleta so tla zaradi tebe, v bridkosti boš jedel od le-teh vse dni svojega življenja.
Yet truly, to Adam, he said: “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten of the tree, from which I instructed you that you should not eat, cursed is the land that you work. In hardship shall you eat from it, all the days of your life.
18 Tudi trnje in osat ti bodo obrodila; in poljsko zelišče boš jedel;
Thorns and thistles shall it produce for you, and you shall eat the plants of the earth.
19 v potu svojega obraza boš jedel kruh, dokler se ne vrneš v tla, kajti od tam si bil vzet, kajti prah si in v prah se boš vrnil.«
By the sweat of your face shall you eat bread, until you return to the earth from which you were taken. For dust you are, and unto dust you shall return.”
20 Adam je svojo ženo imenoval Eva; ker je bila mati vseh živih.
And Adam called the name of his wife, ‘Eve,’ because she was the mother of all the living.
21 Adamu in njegovi ženi je Gospod Bog naredil plašča iz kož ter ju oblekel.
The Lord God also made for Adam and his wife garments from skins, and he clothed them.
22 Gospod Bog je rekel: »Glej, človek je postal kakor eden izmed nas, da pozna dobro in zlo. In sedaj, da ne iztegne svoje roke in vzame tudi od drevesa življenja ter jé in živi na veke, «
And he said: “Behold, Adam has become like one of us, knowing good and evil. Therefore, now perhaps he may put forth his hand and also take from the tree of life, and eat, and live in eternity.”
23 ga je Gospod Bog zato odposlal iz edenskega vrta, da orje tla, iz katerih je bil vzet.
And so the Lord God sent him away from the Paradise of enjoyment, in order to work the earth from which he was taken.
24 Tako je izgnal človeka in na vzhodu edenskega vrta namestil kerube in ognjen meč, ki obrača vsako pot, da varuje pot drevesa življenja.
And he cast out Adam. And in front of the Paradise of enjoyment, he placed the Cherubim with a flaming sword, turning together, to guard the way to the tree of life.
