1 Sasa nyoka alikuwa mwerevu kuliko myama mwingine yeyote wa kondeni ambaye Yahwe Mungu alikuwa amemuumba. Akamwambia mwanamke, “Je ni kweli Mungu amesema, 'Msile matunda kutoka kwenye mti wowote bustanini'?”
But the serpent was sotyller than all the beastes of the felde which ye LORde God had made and sayd vnto the woman. Ah syr that God hath sayd ye shall not eate of all maner trees in the garden.
2 Mwanamke akamwambia nyoka, “Twaweza kula tunda kutoka kwenye miti ya bustani,
And the woman sayd vnto the serpent of the frute of the trees in the garden we may eate
3 lakini kuhusu tunda la mti ambao uko katikati ya bustani, Mungu alisema, 'msile, wala msiuguse, vinginevyo mtakufa.'”
but of the frute of the tree yt is in the myddes of the garden (sayd God) se that ye eate not and se that ye touch it not: lest ye dye.
4 Nyoka akamwambia mwanamke, “hakika hamtakufa.
Then sayd the serpent vnto the woman: tush ye shall not dye:
5 Kwasababu Mungu anajua kwamba siku mkila macho yenu yatafumbuliwa, na mtakuwa kama Mungu, mkijua mema na mabaya.”
But God doth knowe that whensoever ye shulde eate of it youre eyes shuld be opened and ye shulde be as God and knowe both good and evell.
6 Na mwanamke alipoona kuwa mti ni mzuri kwa chakula, na kuwa unapendeza macho, na kwamba mti ulitamanika kwa kumfanya mtu awe mwerevu, alichukua sehemu ya tunda na akala. Na sehemu yake pia akampatia mumewe aliyekuwa naye, naye akala.
And the woman sawe that it was a good tree to eate of and lustie vnto the eyes and a pleasant tre for to make wyse. And toke of the frute of it and ate and gaue vnto hir husband also with her and he ate.
7 Macho ya wote wawili yalifumbuliwa, na wakajua kuwa wako uchi. Wakashona majani ya miti pamoja na wakatengeneza vya kujifunika wao wenyewe.
And the eyes of both them were opened that they vnderstode how that they were naked. Than they sowed fygge leves togedder and made them apurns.
8 Wakasikia sauti ya Yahwe Mungu akitembea bustanini majira ya kupoa kwa jua, kwa hiyo mwanaume na mke wake wakajificha wao wenyewe kwenye miti ya bustani kuepuka uwepo wa Yahwe Mungu.
And they herd the voyce of the LORde God as he walked in the garde in the coole of the daye. And Adam hyd hymselfe and his wyfe also from the face of the LORde God amonge the trees of the garden.
9 Yahwe Mungu akamuita mwanaume na kumwambia, “uko wapi?”
And the LORde God called Adam and sayd vnto him where art thou?
10 Mwanaume akasema, “nilikusikia bustanini, na nkaogopa, kwa sababu nilikuwa uchi. kwa hiyo nikajificha.”
And he answered. Thy voyce I harde in the garden but I was afrayd because I was naked and therfore hyd myselfe.
11 Mungu akasema, “Ni nani alikwambia kuwa ulikuwa uchi? Je umekula kutoka mti ambao nilikuagiza usile matunda yake?”
And he sayd: who told the that thou wast naked? hast thou eaten of the tree of which I bade the that thou shuldest not eate?
12 Mwanaume akasema, “Mwanamke uliyenipa kuwa na mimi, alinipatia tunda kutoka kwenye mti, na nikala.”
And Adam answered. The woman which thou gavest to bere me company she toke me of the tree ad I ate.
13 Yahwe Mungu akamwambia mwanamke, “Nini hiki ulichofanya?” mwanamke akasema, “nyoka alinidanganya, na nikala.”
And the LORde God sayd vnto the woman: wherfore didest thou so? And the woman answered the serpent deceaved me and I ate.
14 Yahwe Mungu akamwambia nyoka, “kwa sababu umefanya jambo hili, umelaaniwa wewe mwenyewe miongoni mwa wanyama wote wa kufugwa na wanyama wote wa mwituni. Itakuwa kwa tumbo lako utakwenda, na mavumbi utakula kwa siku zote za maisha yako.
And the LORde God sayd vnto the serpet because thou haste so done moste cursed be thou of all catell and of all beastes of the feld: vppo thy bely shalt thou goo: and erth shalt thou eate all dayes of thy lyfe.
15 Nitaweka uadui kati yako na mwanamke, na kati ya uzao wako na uzao wake. Atakujeruhi kichwa chako na utamjeruhi kisigino chake.”
Morover I will put hatred betwene the and the woman and betwene thy seed and hyr seed. And that seed shall tread the on the heed ad thou shalt tread hit on the hele.
16 Kwa mwanamke akasema, nitaongeza uchungu wakati wa kuzaa watoto; itakuwa katika maumivu utazaa watoto. Tamaa yako itakua kwa mume wako, lakini atakutawala.”
And vnto the woman he sayd: I will suerly encrease thy sorow ad make the oft with child and with payne shalt thou be deleverd: And thy lustes shall pertayne vnto thy husbond and he shall rule the.
17 Kwa Adam akasema, “kwa sababu umesikiliza sauti ya mke wako, na umekula kutoka katika mti, ambao nilikuagiza, nikisema, “usile matunda yake', ardhi imelaaniwa kwa sababu yako; kupitia kazi yenye maumivu utakula matunda ya ardhi kwa siku zote za maisha yako.
And vnto Ada he sayd: for as moch as thou hast obeyed the voyce of thy wyfe and hast eaten of the tree of which I commaunded the saynge: se thou eate not therof: cursed be the erth for thy sake. In sorow shalt thou eate therof all dayes of thy lyfe
18 Ardhi itazaa miiba na mbigili kwa ajili yako, na utakula mimea ya shambani.
And it shall beare thornes ad thystels vnto the. And thou shalt eate the herbes of ye feld:
19 Kwa jasho la uso wako utakula mkate, mpaka utakapo irudia ardhi, ambayo kwayo ulitwaliwa. kwa kuwa wewe ni mavumbi na kwenye mavumbi utarudi.”
In the swete of thy face shalt thou eate brede vntill thou returne vnto the erth whece thou wast take: for erth thou art ad vnto erth shalt thou returne.
20 Mwanaume akaita mke wake jina Hawa kwa sababu alikuwa mama wa wote wenye uhai.
And Ada called his wyfe Heua because she was the mother of all that lyveth
21 Yahwe Mungu akatengeneza mavazi ya ngozi kwa ajili ya Adam na mke wake na akawavalisha.
And the LORde God made Adam and hys wyfe garmentes of skynnes and put them on them.
22 Yahwe Mungu akasema, “sasa mtu huyu amekuwa kama mmoja wetu, ajuaye mema na mabaya. Kwa hiyo sasa hataruhusiwa kugusa kwa mkono wake, na kuchukua tunda la mti wa uzima, na kula akaishi tena milele.”
And the LORde God sayd: loo Adam is become as it were one of vs in knowlege of good and evell. But now lest he strech forth his hand and take also of the tree of lyfe and eate and lyve ever.
23 Kwa hiyo Yahwe Mungu akamuondoa kutoka kwenye bustani ya Edeni, kwenda kulima ardhi ambayo kwahiyo alikuwa ametwaliwa.
And the LORde God cast him out of the garden of Eden to tylle the erth whece he was taken.
24 Kwa hiyo Mungu akamfukuza mtu huyu nje ya bustani, na akaweka kerubi mashariki mwa bustani ya Edeni, na upanga wa moto ulio geuka geuka kila upande, ili kulinda njia ya kwenda kwenye mti wa uzima.
And he cast Ada out and sette at ye enteringe of the garden Eden Cherubin with a naked swerde movinge in and out to kepe the way to the tree of lyfe.
