Génesis 3
1 Pero la serpiente era astuta, más que toda bestia del campo que Yavé ʼElohim hizo. Y preguntó a la mujer: ¿Así que ʼElohim dijo: No coman de ningún árbol del huerto?
And the two were naked, both Adam and his wife, and were not ashamed. Now the serpent was the most crafty of all the brutes on the earth, which the Lord God made, and the serpent said to the woman, Therefore has God said, Eat not of every tree of the garden?
2 La mujer respondió a la serpiente: Podemos comer del fruto de los árboles del huerto,
And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden,
3 pero del fruto del árbol que está en medio del huerto, dijo ʼElohim: No coman de él ni lo toquen para que no mueran.
but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God said, You shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.
4 Entonces la serpiente dijo a la mujer: No morirán,
And the serpent said to the woman, You shall not surely die.
5 porque ʼElohim sabe que el día cuando coman de él, se les abrirán los ojos y serán semejantes a ʼElohim, conocedores del bien y del mal.
For God knew that in whatever day you should eat of it your eyes would be opened, and you would be as gods, knowing good and evil.
6 La mujer vio que el árbol era bueno para comer y agradable a los ojos, y que era el árbol deseado para alcanzar conocimiento. Tomó de su fruto y comió. Le dio también a su esposo que estaba con ella, y él comió.
And the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes to look upon and beautiful to contemplate, and having taken of its fruit she ate, and she gave to her husband also with her, and they ate.
7 Entonces se les abrieron los ojos a ambos y se dieron cuenta que estaban desnudos. Cosieron follaje de higuera y se hicieron delantales para ellos mismos.
And the eyes of both were opened, and they perceived that they were naked, and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons to go round them.
8 Oyeron el sonido de Yavé ʼElohim, Quien se paseaba por el huerto a la brisa del día, y el hombre y su esposa se escondieron de la Presencia de Yavé ʼElohim entre los árboles del huerto.
And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the afternoon; and both Adam and his wife hid themselves from the face of the Lord God in the midst of the trees of the garden.
9 Pero Yavé ʼElohim llamó al hombre y le preguntó: ¿Dónde estás?
And the Lord God called Adam and said to him, Adam, where are you?
10 Contestó: Oí tu sonido en el huerto y tuve miedo porque estoy desnudo y me escondí.
And he said to him, I heard your voice as you walked in the garden, and I feared because I was naked and I hid myself.
11 Le preguntó: ¿Quién te enseñó que estás desnudo? ¿Comiste del árbol del cual te ordené que no comieras?
And God said to him, Who told you that you were naked, unless you have eaten of the tree concerning which I charged you of it alone not to eat?
12 El hombre respondió: La mujer que pusiste conmigo me dio del árbol y yo comí.
And Adam said, The woman whom you gave to be with me—she gave me of the tree and I ate.
13 Y Yavé ʼElohim preguntó a la mujer: ¿Qué hiciste? La mujer respondió: La serpiente me engañó, y comí.
And the Lord God said to the woman, Why have you done this? And the woman said, The serpent deceived me and I ate.
14 Entonces Yavé ʼElohim dijo a la serpiente: Por cuanto hiciste esto ¡Maldita seas entre todos los animales Y entre todas las bestias del campo! Andarás sobre tu vientre. Polvo comerás todos los días de tu vida.
And the Lord God said to the serpent, Because you have done this you are cursed above all cattle and all the brutes of the earth, on your breast and belly you shall go, and you shall eat earth all the days of your life.
15 Pondré enemistad entre ti y la mujer, Y entre tu descendiente y su descendiente. Éste te aplastará la cabeza Cuando tú hieras su talón.
And I will put enmity between you and the woman and between your seed and her seed, he shall watch against your head, and you shall watch against his heel.
16 Y dijo a la mujer: Multiplicaré inmensamente los dolores de tus preñeces. Con dolor darás a luz los hijos, Y tendrás deseo de tu marido, Pero él te dominará.
And to the woman he said, I will greatly multiply your pains and your groanings; in pain you shall bring forth children, and your submission shall be to your husband, and he shall rule over you.
17 Y dijo al hombre: Por cuanto atendiste la voz de tu esposa, Y comiste del árbol del cual te ordené: No comas de él, ¡Maldita sea la tierra por causa tuya! Con fatiga comerás de ella todos los días de tu vida.
And to Adam he said, Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and eaten of the tree concerning which I charged you of it only not to eat—of that you have eaten, cursed [is] the ground in your labors, in pain shall you eat of it all the days of your life.
18 Espinos y abrojos te brotará Y comerás hierba del campo.
Thorns and thistles shall it bring forth to you, and you shall eat the herb of the field.
19 Con el sudor de tu rostro comerás pan Hasta que regreses a la tierra. Porque de ella fuiste tomado, Pues polvo eres y al polvo volverás.
In the sweat of your face shall you eat your bread until you return to the earth out of which you were taken, for earth you are and to earth you shall return.
20 El hombre llamó a su esposa Eva, por cuanto ella sería madre de todo viviente.
And Adam called the name of his wife Life, because she was the mother of all living.
21 Entonces Yavé ʼElohim hizo túnicas de pieles para Adán y su esposa, y los vistió.
And the Lord God made for Adam and his wife garments of skin, and clothed them.
22 Yavé ʼElohim dijo: Ciertamente el hombre es ahora como uno de Nosotros, conocedor del bien y del mal. Ahora, que no extienda su mano, tome también del árbol de la vida, coma y viva para siempre.
And God said, Behold, Adam is become as one of us, to know good and evil, and now lest at any time he stretch forth his hand, and take of the tree of life and eat, and [so] he shall live forever—
23 Yavé ʼElohim lo expulsó del huerto de Edén para que trabajara la tierra de la que fue tomado.
So the Lord God sent him forth out of the garden of Delight to cultivate the ground out of which he was taken.
24 Así pues, expulsó al hombre y situó querubines al oriente del huerto de Edén, con la espada incandescente que se revolvía a todos los lados para guardar el camino hacia el árbol de la vida.
And he cast out Adam and caused him to dwell over against the garden of Delight, and stationed the cherubs and the fiery sword that turns about to keep the way of the tree of life.
