< 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?‹«
The serpent was more cunning than any of the other wild animals that the Lord God had made. He asked Eve, “Did God really say that you can't eat fruit from every tree in the garden?”
2 In ženska je rekla kači: »Midva lahko jeva od sadja vrtnih dreves,
Eve replied to the serpent, “We can eat from the trees in the garden, but not the fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden.
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.‹«
God told us, ‘You mustn't eat from that tree, or even touch it, otherwise you'll die.’”
4 Kača je ženski rekla: »Zagotovo ne bosta umrla,
“You certainly won't die,” the serpent told Eve.
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.«
“It's because God knows that as soon as you eat it, you'll see things differently, and you'll be like God, knowing both what is good and what is 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.
Eve saw that the fruit of the tree appeared good to eat. It looked very attractive. She really wanted it so she could become wise. So she took some of its fruit and ate it, and she gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it too.
7 Oči so se obema odprle in spoznala sta, da sta bila naga. Skupaj sta sešila figove liste ter si naredila predpasnika.
Immediately they saw everything differently and realized they were naked. So they sewed fig leaves together to cover themselves up.
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.
Later they heard the Lord walking in the garden in the evening when the breeze was blowing. Adam and Eve went and hid out of sight of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
9 Gospod Bog je zaklical Adamu in mu rekel: »Kje si?«
The Lord God called out to Adam, “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.«
“I heard you walking in the garden and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid,” he replied.
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?«
“Who told you that you were naked?” asked the Lord God. “Did you eat fruit from the tree I ordered you not to?”
12 Mož je rekel: »Ženska, ki si mi jo dal, da je z menoj, ona mi je dala od drevesa in sem jedel.«
“It was the woman you gave me who gave me the fruit from the tree, and I ate it,” Adam replied.
13 Gospod Bog je rekel ženski: »Kaj je to, kar si storila?« Ženska je rekla: »Kača me je preslepila in sem jedla.«
The Lord God asked Eve, “Why have you done this?” “The serpent tricked me, and so I ate it,” she replied.
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.
Then the Lord God told the serpent, “Because of what you've done, you are cursed more than any of the other animals. You will slide along on your belly and eat dust as long as you live.
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 make sure you and your children, and the woman and her children, are enemies. One of her children will crush your head, and you will strike his 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.«
He told Eve, “I will make pregnancy much more difficult, and giving birth will be very painful. However, you will still desire your husband, but he will have control 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.
He told Adam, “Because you did what your wife told you, and ate fruit from the tree after I ordered you, ‘Don't eat fruit from this tree,’ the ground is now cursed because of you. You will have to work painfully hard to grow food from it throughout your whole life.
18 Tudi trnje in osat ti bodo obrodila; in poljsko zelišče boš jedel;
It will grow thorns and thistles for you, and you will have to eat wild plants.
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.«
You will have to sweat to grow enough food to eat until you die and return to the ground. For you were made from dust and you will return to dust.”
20 Adam je svojo ženo imenoval Eva; ker je bila mati vseh živih.
Adam named his wife Eve, because she was to be the mother of all human beings.
21 Adamu in njegovi ženi je Gospod Bog naredil plašča iz kož ter ju oblekel.
The Lord God made Adam and Eve clothes from animal skins and dressed 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, «
Then the Lord God observed, “Look, the human beings have become like one of us, knowing both what is good and what is evil. Now if they take the fruit from the tree of life and eat it, then they'll live forever!”
23 ga je Gospod Bog zato odposlal iz edenskega vrta, da orje tla, iz katerih je bil vzet.
So the Lord God expelled them from the Garden of Eden. He sent Adam to cultivate the ground from which he'd been made.
24 Tako je izgnal človeka in na vzhodu edenskega vrta namestil kerube in ognjen meč, ki obrača vsako pot, da varuje pot drevesa življenja.
After he drove them out, the Lord God placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden angels and a sword that flashed in every direction. They were to prevent access to the tree of life.
