< Genesis 3 >

1 Ejò sá à ṣe alárékérekè ju àwọn ẹranko igbó yòókù tí Olúwa Ọlọ́run dá lọ. Ó sọ fún obìnrin náà pé, “Ǹjẹ́ òtítọ́ ha ni Ọlọ́run wí pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ èso èyíkéyìí lára àwọn igi tí ó wà nínú ọgbà’?”
Now, the serpent, was more crafty than any living thing of the field which Yahweh God had made, so he said unto the woman, Can it really be that God hath said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
2 Obìnrin náà dá ejò lóhùn pé, “Àwa lè jẹ lára àwọn èso igi tí ó wà nínú ọgbà,
And the woman said unto the serpent, —Of the fruit of the trees of the garden, we may eat;
3 ṣùgbọ́n Ọlọ́run sọ pé, ‘Ẹ̀yin kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ lára èso igi tí ó wà láàrín ọgbà, ẹ kò sì gbọdọ̀ fi ọwọ́ kàn án, bí ẹ̀yin bá ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, ẹ̀yin yóò kùú.’”
but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said Ye shall not eat of it neither shall ye touch it, —lest ye die.
4 Ejò wí fún obìnrin náà pé, “Ẹ̀yin kì yóò kú ikúkíkú kan.”
And the serpent said unto the woman, —Ye shall not die,
5 “Nítorí Ọlọ́run mọ̀ wí pé, bí ẹ̀yin bá jẹ nínú rẹ̀, ojú yín yóò là, ẹ̀yin yóò sì dàbí Ọlọ́run, ẹ̀yin yóò sì mọ rere yàtọ̀ sí búburú.”
For God doth know, that in the day ye eat thereof, then shall your eyes be opened, —and ye shall become like God, knowing good and evil.
6 Nígbà tí obìnrin náà rí i wí pé èso igi náà dára fún oúnjẹ àti pé, ó sì dùn ún wò, àti pé ó ń mú ni ní ọgbọ́n, ó mú díẹ̀ níbẹ̀, ó sì jẹ ẹ́. Ó sì mú díẹ̀ fún ọkọ rẹ̀, ẹni tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, òun náà sì jẹ ẹ́.
And, when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was desirable to the eyes and the tree was pleasant to make one knowing, then took she of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and she gave to her husband also, along with her, and he did eat.
7 Nígbà náà ni ojú àwọn méjèèjì sì là, wọ́n sì mọ̀ pé àwọn wà ní ìhòhò; wọ́n sì rán ewé ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ pọ̀, wọ́n sì fi bo ara wọn.
Then were opened the eyes of them both, and they knew that, naked, they were, —so they tacked together fig-leaves, and made for themselves girdles,
8 Nígbà náà ni ọkùnrin náà àti aya rẹ̀ gbọ́ ìró Olúwa Ọlọ́run bí ó ti ń rìn nínú ọgbà, nígbà tí ojú ọjọ́ tura, wọ́n sì fi ara pamọ́ kúrò níwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run sí àárín àwọn igi inú ọgbà.
Then heard they the sound of Yahweh God, walking to and fro in the garden at the breeze of the day, —so he hid himself—the man with his wife, from the face of Yahweh God, amid the trees of the garden.
9 Ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa Ọlọ́run ké pe ọkùnrin náà pé, “Níbo ni ìwọ wà?”
And Yahweh God called unto the man, —and said to him, Where art thou?
10 Ó dáhùn pé, “Mo gbúròó rẹ̀ nínú ọgbà, ẹ̀rù sì bà mí, nítorí pé, mo wà ní ìhòhò, mo sì fi ara pamọ́.”
And he said, The sound of thee, heard I in the garden, and I was afraid, for, naked, was I, so I hid myself.
11 Ọlọ́run wí pé, “Ta ni ó wí fún ọ pé ìhòhò ni ìwọ wà? Ṣé ìwọ ti jẹ nínú èso igi tí mo pàṣẹ fún ọ pé ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ nínú rẹ̀ ni?”
And he said, Who told thee that, naked, thou wast? Of the tree whereof I commanded thee not to eat, hast thou eaten?
12 Ọkùnrin náà wí pé, “Obìnrin tí ìwọ fi fún mi, ni ó fún mi nínú èso igi náà, mo sì jẹ ẹ́.”
And the man said, —The woman whom thou didst put with me, she, gave me of the tree, so I did eat.
13 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run wí pé, “Èwo ni èyí tí ìwọ ṣe yìí?” Obìnrin náà dáhùn pé, “Ejò ni ó tàn mí jẹ, mo sì jẹ ẹ́.”
Then said Yahweh God to the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, the serpent, deceived me, so I did eat.
14 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run wí fún ejò náà pé, “Nítorí tí ìwọ ti ṣe èyí, “Ègún ni fún ọ ju gbogbo ohun ọ̀sìn àti gbogbo ẹranko igbó tókù lọ! Àyà rẹ ni ìwọ yóò fi máa wọ́, ìwọ yóò sì máa jẹ erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀ ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé rẹ.
Then said Yahweh God unto the serpent—Because thou hast done this, Accursed, art thou above every tame-beast, and above every wild-beast of the field, —on thy belly, shalt thou go, and dust, shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.
15 Èmi yóò sì fi ọ̀tá sí àárín ìwọ àti obìnrin náà, àti sí àárín irú-ọmọ rẹ àti irú-ọmọ obìnrin náà; òun yóò fọ́ orí rẹ, ìwọ yóò sì bù ú jẹ ní gìgísẹ̀.”
And enmity, will I put between thee, and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed, —He shall crush thy head, but, thou, shalt crush his heel.
16 Ọlọ́run wí fún obìnrin náà pé, “Èmi yóò fi kún ìrora rẹ ní àkókò ìbímọ; ni ìrora ni ìwọ yóò máa bí ọmọ. Ọ̀dọ̀ ọkọ rẹ ni ìfẹ́ rẹ yóò máa fà sí, òun ni yóò sì máa ṣe àkóso rẹ.”
Unto the woman, he said, I will, increase, thy pain of pregnancy, In pain, shalt thou bear children, —Yet, unto thy husband, shall be thy longing, Though, he, rule over thee.
17 Ọlọ́run sì wí fún Adamu pé, “Nítorí pé ìwọ fetí sí aya rẹ, ìwọ sì jẹ nínú èso igi tí mo pàṣẹ fún ọ pé, ‘Ìwọ kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ nínú rẹ̀,’ “Ègún ni fún ilẹ̀ nítorí rẹ; nínú ọ̀pọ̀ làálàá ni ìwọ yóò jẹ nínú rẹ̀, ní gbogbo ọjọ́ ayé rẹ.
And, to the man, he said, Because thou didst hearken to the voice of thy wife, and so didst eat of the tree as to which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it, Accursed be the ground for thy sake, In pain, shalt thou eat of it, all the days of thy life;
18 Ilẹ̀ yóò sì hu ẹ̀gún àti èṣùṣú fún ọ, ewéko igbó ni ìwọ yóò sì máa jẹ.
Thorn also and thistle, shall it shoot forth to thee, —when thou hast come to eat of the herb of the field:
19 Nínú òógùn ojú rẹ ni ìwọ yóò máa jẹun títí tí ìwọ yóò fi padà sí ilẹ̀, nítorí inú ilẹ̀ ni a ti mú ọ jáde wá; erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀ sá à ni ìwọ, ìwọ yóò sì padà di erùpẹ̀.”
In the sweat of thy face, shalt thou eat bread, until thou return to the ground, because therefrom, wast thou taken, —For, dust, thou art, And, unto dust, shalt thou return.
20 Adamu sì sọ aya rẹ̀ ní Efa nítorí òun ni yóò di ìyá gbogbo alààyè.
So the man called the name of his wife, Eve, —in that, she, was made mother of every one living.
21 Olúwa Ọlọ́run, sì dá ẹ̀wù awọ fún Adamu àti aya rẹ̀, ó sì fi wọ̀ wọ́n.
And Yahweh God made for the man—and for his wife—tunics of skin and clothed them.
22 Olúwa Ọlọ́run sì wí pé, “Ọkùnrin náà ti dàbí ọ̀kan lára wa, ó mọ rere àti búburú. A kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ́ kí ó na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ kí ó mú lára èso igi ìyè kí ó sì jẹ, kí ó sì wà láààyè títí láéláé.”
Then said Yahweh God—Lo! man, hath become like one of us, in respect of knowing good and evil, —Now, therefore, lest he thrust forth his hand, and take even of the tree of life, and eat, and live to times age-abiding, —
23 Nítorí náà, Olúwa Ọlọ́run lé e kúrò nínú ọgbà Edeni láti lọ máa ro ilẹ̀ nínú èyí tí a ti mú un jáde wá.
So Yahweh God put him forth from the garden of Eden, —to till the ground wherefrom he had been taken.
24 Lẹ́yìn tí ó ti lé ènìyàn jáde tán, ó fi àwọn kérúbù àti idà iná tí ó ń kọ mọ̀nàmọ́ná síwájú àti sẹ́yìn láti ṣọ́ ọ̀nà tí ó lọ sí ibi igi ìyè, ní ìhà ìlà-oòrùn ọgbà Edeni.
So he expelled the man, —and caused to dwell—in front of the garden of Eden—cherubim and a brandishing sword—flame, to keep the way to the tree of life.
