1 Mose 3
1 Na ɔwɔ yɛ ɔdaadaafoɔ wɔ wiram mmoadoma a Awurade Onyankopɔn abɔ wɔn no nyinaa mu. Ɔwɔ no kɔɔ ɔbaa no nkyɛn kɔbisaa no sɛ, “Enti, ɛyɛ ampa ara sɛ, Onyankopɔn se, ‘Monnni turo yi mu aduaba biara?’”
Now the serpent was more subtill then any beast of the fielde, which the Lord God had made: and he said to the woman, Yea, hath God in deede said, Ye shall not eate of euery tree of the garden?
2 Ɔbaa no buaa ɔwɔ sɛ, “Yɛtumi di nnua a ɛwɔ turo yi mu no so aduaba biara,
And the woman said vnto the serpent, We eate of the fruite of the trees of the garden,
3 nanso Onyankopɔn kaa sɛ, ‘Ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛdi dua a ɛsi turo no mfimfini no so aduaba, na ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛde yɛn nsa mpo ka, anyɛ saa a, yɛbɛwuwu.’”
But of the fruite of the tree which is in the middes of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eate of it, neither shall ye touche it, lest ye die.
4 Na ɔwɔ no ka kyerɛɛ ɔbaa no sɛ, “Morenwuwu.
Then the serpent said to the woman, Ye shall not die at all,
5 Onyankopɔn nim sɛ, ɛda a mobɛdi no ara pɛ, mo ani bɛba mo ho so, ama moayɛ sɛ Onyankopɔn, na moahunu papa ne bɔne.”
But God doeth knowe, that when ye shall eate thereof, your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and euill.
6 Ɛberɛ a ɔbaa no hunuu sɛ dua a ɛsi mfimfini no so aba no wɔdi a, ɛbɛyɛ yie, na ɛyɛ akɔnnɔ, na afei ɛte ani no, ɔtee bi diiɛ, de bi ma ne kunu a na ɔne no wɔ hɔ maa ɔno nso diiɛ.
So the woman (seeing that the tree was good for meate, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to get knowledge) tooke of the fruite thereof, and did eate, and gaue also to her husband with her, and he did eate.
7 Wɔdi wieeɛ no, wɔn baanu ani baa wɔn ho so, na wɔhunuu sɛ wɔn nyinaa da adagya. Enti, wɔkekaa nhahan sisii animu de kataa wɔn adagya so.
Then the eyes of them both were opened, and they knewe that they were naked, and they sewed figge tree leaues together, and made them selues breeches.
8 Ɛda no anwummerɛ, wɔtee Awurade Onyankopɔn nka sɛ ɔnam turo no mu. Enti, Adam ne ne yere Hawa de wɔn ho kɔsiee nnua a ɛwɔ turo mu hɔ no mu sɛdeɛ Awurade Onyankopɔn renhunu wɔn.
Afterward they heard the voyce of the Lord God walking in the garden in the coole of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselues from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
9 Enti, Awurade Onyankopɔn frɛɛ Adam bisaa no sɛ, “Mowɔ he?”
But the Lord God called to the man, and said vnto him, Where art thou?
10 Adam buaa sɛ, “Metee wo nka wɔ turo no mu hɔ, nanso na mesuro, ɛfiri sɛ, na meda adagya enti mekɔtɛeɛ.”
Who saide, I heard thy voyce in the garden, and was afraide: because I was naked, therefore I hid my selfe.
11 Na Onyankopɔn bisaa no sɛ, “Hwan na ɔka kyerɛɛ wo sɛ na woda adagya? Gyama dua a meka kyerɛɛ wo sɛ, nni so aba no, woadi nʼaba no bi?”
And he saide, Who tolde thee, that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eate?
12 Adam kaa sɛ, “Aane. Ɔbaa no a wode no maa me sɛ me ne no ntena no na ɔde aduaba a ɔte firii dua no so no brɛɛ me ma mediiɛ.”
Then the man saide, The woman which thou gauest to be with me, she gaue me of the tree, and I did eate.
13 Enti, Awurade Onyankopɔn bisaa ɔbaa no sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na woayɛ yi?” Ɔbaa no buaa sɛ, “Ɔwɔ no na ɔdaadaa me ma mediiɛ.”
And the Lord God saide to the woman, Why hast thou done this? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eate.
14 Enti, Awurade Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ ɔwɔ no sɛ, “Esiane saa adeɛ a woayɛ yi enti, “Wɔadome wo wɔ mmoa nyinaa ne nkekaboa mu. Wobɛwea wʼafuru so, na wo nkwa nna nyinaa woadi mfuturo.
Then the Lord God said to the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed aboue all cattell, and aboue euery beast of the fielde: vpon thy belly shalt thou goe, and dust shalt thou eate all the dayes of thy life.
15 Mede ɔtan bɛto wo ne ɔbaa no ne wʼasefoɔ ne nʼasefoɔ ntam. Ɔno na ɔbɛbɔ wo tire, na wo nso woaka ne nantin.”
I will also put enimitie betweene thee and the woman, and betweene thy seede and her seede. He shall breake thine head, and thou shalt bruise his heele.
16 Afei, Awurade Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ ɔbaa no nso sɛ, “Wobɛte ɔyea pa ara wɔ wʼawoɔ mu; ɔyea mu na wobɛwo mma. Yei nyinaa akyiri no, wʼani bɛgyina wo kunu na ɔbɛdi wo so.”
Vnto the woman he said, I will greatly increase thy sorowes, and thy conceptions. In sorowe shalt thou bring foorth children, and thy desire shalbe subiect to thine husband, and he shall rule ouer thee.
17 Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Adam nso sɛ, “Esiane sɛ wotiee wo yere asɛm, na wodii dua a mehyɛɛ wo sɛ, ‘Nni so aba no’ enti, “Madome asase, na ɔbrɛ ne ɔhaw mu na wobɛdidi so wo nkwa nna nyinaa.
Also to Adam he said, Because thou hast obeyed the voyce of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, (whereof I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eate of it) cursed is the earth for thy sake: in sorowe shalt thou eate of it all the dayes of thy life.
18 Ɛbɛfifiri nkasɛɛ ne nkyɛkyerɛ ama wo na woadi wiram nhahan.
Thornes also, and thistles shall it bring foorth to thee, and thou shalt eate the herbe of the fielde.
19 Wobɛsiam wʼanim fifire ansa na woanya aduane adi, kɔsi sɛ wobɛwu akɔ dɔteɛ mu, ɛfiri sɛ, dɔteɛ no mu na menwonoo wo firiiɛ; woyɛ dɔteɛ, na dɔteɛ mu na wobɛsane akɔ.”
In the sweate of thy face shalt thou eate bread, till thou returne to the earth: for out of it wast thou taken, because thou art dust, and to dust shalt thou returne.
20 Adam too ne yere no edin Hawa, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔno na ɔbɛyɛ ateasefoɔ nyinaa na.
(And the man called his wiues name Heuah, because she was the mother of all liuing)
21 Awurade Onyankopɔn de aboa nwoma yɛɛ ntadeɛ maa Adam ne ne yere Hawa de kataa wɔn ho.
Vnto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coates of skinnes, and clothed them.
22 Awurade Onyankopɔn kaa sɛ, “Afei, onipa no abɛyɛ sɛ yɛn ara a, wahunu papa ne bɔne. Ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛma no ɛkwan na ɔtene ne nsa kɔte nkwa dua no so aba no bi die, na ɔtena ase afebɔɔ.”
And the Lord God said, Beholde, the man is become as one of vs, to knowe good and euill. And nowe lest he put foorth his hand, and take also of ye tree of life and eate and liue for euer,
23 Enti, Awurade Onyankopɔn pamoo no firii Eden turo no mu sɛ ɔnkɔyɛ adwuma wɔ asase a, wɔnwonoo no firii mu no so.
Therefore the Lord God sent him foorth from the garden of Eden, to till ye earth, whence he was taken.
24 Ɔpamoo onipa no. Na Eden turo no apueeɛ fam hɔ no, ɔde Kerubim ne afena a ɛredɛre twa ne ho fa baabiara no sii hɔ sɛ, ɛnwɛn ɛkwan a ɛkɔ nkwa dua no ho.
Thus he cast out man, and at the East side of the garden of Eden he set the Cherubims, and the blade of a sworde shaken, to keepe the way of the tree of life.
