创世记 1-3
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
上帝创造天地
1 太初,上帝创造了天地。 2 那时,大地空虚混沌,还没有成形,黑暗笼罩着深渊,上帝的灵运行在水面上。 3 上帝说:“要有光!”就有了光。 4 上帝看光是好的,就把光和暗分开, 5 称光为昼,称暗为夜。晚上过去,早晨到来,这是第一天[a]。 6 上帝说:“水与水之间要有穹苍,把水分开。” 7 果然如此。上帝开辟了穹苍,用穹苍将水上下分开。 8 上帝称穹苍为天空。晚上过去,早晨到来,这是第二天。
9 上帝说:“天空下面的水要聚在一处,使干地露出来。”果然如此。 10 上帝称干地为陆地,称水汇聚的地方为海洋。上帝看了,感到满意。 11 上帝说:“陆地要长出植物——各类结种子的菜蔬和结果子的树木,果子内都有籽。”果然如此, 12 陆地长出了植物——各类结种子的菜蔬和结果子的树木,果子内都有籽。上帝看了,感到满意。 13 晚上过去,早晨到来,这是第三天。
14 上帝说:“天空要有光体,以区分昼夜,作记号,定节令,计算年日, 15 发光普照大地。”果然如此。 16 上帝造了两个大光体,较大的管白昼,较小的管黑夜,又造了星辰。 17 上帝把这些光体摆列在天空,让它们发光普照大地, 18 管理昼夜,分开明暗。上帝看了,感到满意。 19 晚上过去,早晨到来,这是第四天。
20 上帝说:“水中要充满各种动物,空中要有禽鸟飞翔。” 21 上帝就造了海中的大鱼等各类水族和各类禽鸟。上帝看了,感到满意。 22 上帝赐福给这一切生物,说:“水族要生养繁殖,充满海洋,禽鸟也要在地上多多地繁殖。” 23 晚上过去,早晨到来,这是第五天。 24 上帝说:“大地要繁衍各类动物——各类的牲畜、爬虫和野兽。”果然如此。 25 上帝造了各类的野兽、牲畜和爬虫。上帝看了,感到满意。
上帝照自己的形象造人
26 上帝说:“我们要照着我们的形象,按着我们的样子造人,让他们管理海里的鱼、空中的鸟和地上的牲畜及一切爬虫。” 27 上帝就照着自己的形象造了人,祂照着自己的形象造了男人和女人。 28 上帝赐福给他们,对他们说:“你们要生养众多,遍布地面,治理大地,管理海里的鱼、空中的鸟以及地上的各种动物。” 29 上帝对人说:“看啊,我把地上所有结种子的菜蔬和所有树上有籽的果子都赐给你们作食物。 30 我把植物赐给所有地上的走兽、空中的飞鸟及地上的爬虫作食物。”果然如此。 31 上帝看了,感到非常满意。晚上过去,早晨到来,这是第六天。
2 天地万物都造好了。 2 第七天,上帝完成了祂的创造之工,就在第七天歇了一切的工。 3 上帝赐福给第七天,将其定为圣日,因为祂在这一天歇了祂一切的创造之工。 4 这是有关创造天地的记载。
上帝造亚当和夏娃
耶和华上帝创造天地的时候, 5 地上还没有草木菜蔬,因为耶和华上帝还没有降雨在地上,土地也没有人耕作, 6 但有水从地里涌出,浇灌大地。 7 耶和华上帝用地上的尘土造了人,把生命的气息吹进他的鼻孔里,他就成了有生命的人。 8 耶和华上帝在东方的伊甸开辟了一个园子,把祂所造的人安置在里面。 9 耶和华上帝使地面长出各种树木,它们既好看又能结出可吃的果子。在园子的中间有生命树和分别善恶的树。
10 有一条河从伊甸流出来灌溉那园子,又从那里分出四条支流。 11 第一条支流叫比逊河,它环绕着哈腓拉全境。那里有金子, 12 且是上好的金子,还有珍珠和红玛瑙。 13 第二条支流是基训河,它环绕着古实全境。 14 第三条支流名叫底格里斯河,它流经亚述的东边。第四条支流是幼发拉底河。
15 耶和华上帝把那人安置在伊甸的园子里,让他在那里耕种、看管园子。 16 耶和华上帝吩咐那人说:“你可以随意吃园中所有树上的果子, 17 只是不可吃那棵分别善恶树的果子,因为你若吃了,当天必死。”
18 耶和华上帝说:“那人独自一人不好,我要为他造一个相配的帮手。” 19 耶和华上帝用尘土造了各种田野的走兽和空中的飞鸟,把它们带到那人跟前,看他怎么称呼这些动物。他叫这些动物什么,它们的名字就是什么。 20 那人给所有的牲畜及田野的走兽和空中的飞鸟都起了名字。可是他找不到一个跟自己相配的帮手。 21 耶和华上帝使那人沉睡,然后从他身上取出一根肋骨,再把肉合起来。 22 耶和华上帝用那根肋骨造成一个女人,带到那人跟前。 23 那人说:
“这才是我的同类,
我骨中的骨,肉中的肉,
要称她为女人,
因为她是从男人身上取出来的。”
24 因此,人要离开父母,与妻子结合,二人成为一体。 25 当时,他们夫妇二人都赤身露体,并不觉得羞耻。
始祖犯罪
3 在耶和华上帝所造的田野的各种动物中,蛇最狡猾。蛇对女人说:“上帝真的说过不许你们吃园中所有树上的果子吗?” 2 女人回答说:“我们可以吃园中树上的果子, 3 只是不可以吃园子中间那棵树的果子。上帝曾经吩咐说,‘你们不可吃那果子,也不可摸,否则你们就会死。’” 4 蛇对女人说:“你们一定不会死! 5 上帝那样说是因为祂知道你们吃了那树的果子以后,眼睛就会明亮,像上帝一样懂得分辨善恶。” 6 女人见那棵树上的果子可口,赏心悦目,可以使人有智慧,就摘下来吃了。她也把果子给跟她在一起的丈夫,他也吃了。 7 二人的眼睛果然明亮起来,这才发觉自己原来赤身露体,便把无花果树的叶子编起来遮体。
8 傍晚天凉时,夫妇二人听见耶和华上帝在园中行走的声音,就藏在园子的树丛中,想躲开耶和华上帝。 9 耶和华上帝呼唤那人说:“你在哪里?” 10 那人说:“我听见你在园中行走的声音,就害怕得躲了起来,因为我赤身露体!” 11 耶和华上帝问:“谁说你赤身露体?难道你吃了我吩咐你不可吃的果子吗?” 12 那人说:“你赐给我作伴的女人摘了那树上的果子给我,我就吃了。” 13 耶和华上帝对女人说:“你这做的是什么事?”女人说:“是蛇诱骗我,我才吃的。”
上帝的审判
14 耶和华上帝对蛇说:
“你既然做了这事,
你要比一切的牲畜和野兽受更重的咒诅,
你要用肚子爬行,
一生都要吃尘土。
15 我要使你和女人结仇,
你的后代和女人的后代也要彼此为仇,
女人的后代必伤你的头,
你必伤他的脚跟。”
16 耶和华上帝对女人说:
“我必大大加重你怀孕的痛苦,
你分娩时必受痛苦。
你必恋慕[b]自己的丈夫,
你的丈夫必管辖你。”
17 耶和华上帝又对亚当说:
“因为你听从妻子的话,
吃了我吩咐你不可吃的果子,
地必因你而受咒诅。
你必终生艰辛劳苦,
才能吃到地里出产的食物。
18 地必给你长出荆棘和蒺藜,
你要吃田间长出来的菜蔬。
19 你必汗流满面,才有饭吃,
一直到你归回尘土。
因为你是尘土造的,
也必归回尘土。”
20 亚当给他的妻子取名叫夏娃,因为她是众生之母。 21 耶和华上帝做了皮衣给他们夫妇穿。 22 耶和华上帝说:“看啊,那人已经与我们相似,能分辨善恶。现在,恐怕他会伸手去摘生命树的果子吃,那样他就会永远活着。” 23 因此,耶和华上帝就把亚当赶出伊甸园,让他去开垦土地——他的本源。 24 上帝赶走了亚当以后,就派遣基路伯天使驻守在伊甸园东边,又用一把旋转的火剑守护在通往生命树的路上。

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
上帝創造天地
1 太初,上帝創造了天地。 2 那時,大地空虛混沌,還沒有成形,黑暗籠罩著深淵,上帝的靈運行在水面上。 3 上帝說:「要有光!」就有了光。 4 上帝看光是好的,就把光和暗分開, 5 稱光為晝,稱暗為夜。晚上過去,早晨到來,這是第一天[a]。 6 上帝說:「水與水之間要有穹蒼,把水分開。」 7 果然如此。上帝開闢了穹蒼,用穹蒼將水上下分開。 8 上帝稱穹蒼為天空。晚上過去,早晨到來,這是第二天。
9 上帝說:「天空下面的水要聚在一處,使乾地露出來。」果然如此。 10 上帝稱乾地為陸地,稱水匯聚的地方為海洋。上帝看了,感到滿意。 11 上帝說:「陸地要長出植物——各類結種子的菜蔬和結果子的樹木,果子內都有籽。」果然如此, 12 陸地長出了植物——各類結種子的菜蔬和結果子的樹木,果子內都有籽。上帝看了,感到滿意。 13 晚上過去,早晨到來,這是第三天。
14 上帝說:「天空要有光體,以區分晝夜,作記號,定節令,計算年日, 15 發光普照大地。」果然如此。 16 上帝造了兩個大光體,較大的管白晝,較小的管黑夜,又造了星辰。 17 上帝把這些光體擺列在天空,讓它們發光普照大地, 18 管理晝夜,分開明暗。上帝看了,感到滿意。 19 晚上過去,早晨到來,這是第四天。
20 上帝說:「水中要充滿各種動物,空中要有禽鳥飛翔。」 21 上帝就造了海中的大魚等各類水族和各類禽鳥。上帝看了,感到滿意。 22 上帝賜福給這一切生物,說:「水族要生養繁殖,充滿海洋,禽鳥也要在地上多多地繁殖。」 23 晚上過去,早晨到來,這是第五天。 24 上帝說:「大地要繁衍各類動物——各類的牲畜、爬蟲和野獸。」果然如此。 25 上帝造了各類的野獸、牲畜和爬蟲。上帝看了,感到滿意。
上帝照自己的形像造人
26 上帝說:「我們要照著我們的形像,按著我們的樣子造人,讓他們管理海裡的魚、空中的鳥和地上的牲畜及一切爬蟲。」 27 上帝就照著自己的形像造了人,祂照著自己的形像造了男人和女人。 28 上帝賜福給他們,對他們說:「你們要生養眾多,遍佈地面,治理大地,管理海裡的魚、空中的鳥以及地上的各種動物。」 29 上帝對人說:「看啊,我把地上所有結種子的菜蔬和所有樹上有籽的果子都賜給你們作食物。 30 我把植物賜給所有地上的走獸、空中的飛鳥及地上的爬蟲作食物。」果然如此。 31 上帝看了,感到非常滿意。晚上過去,早晨到來,這是第六天。
2 天地萬物都造好了。 2 第七天,上帝完成了祂的創造之工,就在第七天歇了一切的工。 3 上帝賜福給第七天,將其定為聖日,因為祂在這一天歇了祂一切的創造之工。 4 這是有關創造天地的記載。
上帝造亞當和夏娃
耶和華上帝創造天地的時候, 5 地上還沒有草木菜蔬,因為耶和華上帝還沒有降雨在地上,土地也沒有人耕作, 6 但有水從地裡湧出,澆灌大地。 7 耶和華上帝用地上的塵土造了人,把生命的氣息吹進他的鼻孔裡,他就成了有生命的人。 8 耶和華上帝在東方的伊甸開闢了一個園子,把祂所造的人安置在裡面。 9 耶和華上帝使地面長出各種樹木,它們既好看又能結出可吃的果子。在園子的中間有生命樹和分別善惡的樹。
10 有一條河從伊甸流出來灌溉那園子,又從那裡分出四條支流。 11 第一條支流叫比遜河,它環繞著哈腓拉全境。那裡有金子, 12 且是上好的金子,還有珍珠和紅瑪瑙。 13 第二條支流是基訓河,它環繞著古實全境。 14 第三條支流名叫底格里斯河,它流經亞述的東邊。第四條支流是幼發拉底河。
15 耶和華上帝把那人安置在伊甸的園子裡,讓他在那裡耕種、看管園子。 16 耶和華上帝吩咐那人說:「你可以隨意吃園中所有樹上的果子, 17 只是不可吃那棵分別善惡樹的果子,因為你若吃了,當天必死。」
18 耶和華上帝說:「那人獨自一人不好,我要為他造一個相配的幫手。」 19 耶和華上帝用塵土造了各種田野的走獸和空中的飛鳥,把牠們帶到那人跟前,看他怎麼稱呼這些動物。他叫這些動物什麼,牠們的名字就是什麼。 20 那人給所有的牲畜及田野的走獸和空中的飛鳥都起了名字。可是他找不到一個跟自己相配的幫手。 21 耶和華上帝使那人沉睡,然後從他身上取出一根肋骨,再把肉合起來。 22 耶和華上帝用那根肋骨造成一個女人,帶到那人跟前。 23 那人說:
「這才是我的同類,
我骨中的骨,肉中的肉,
要稱她為女人,
因為她是從男人身上取出來的。」
24 因此,人要離開父母,與妻子結合,二人成為一體。 25 當時,他們夫婦二人都赤身露體,並不覺得羞恥。
始祖犯罪
3 在耶和華上帝所造的田野的各種動物中,蛇最狡猾。蛇對女人說:「上帝真的說過不許你們吃園中所有樹上的果子嗎?」 2 女人回答說:「我們可以吃園中樹上的果子, 3 只是不可以吃園子中間那棵樹的果子。上帝曾經吩咐說,『你們不可吃那果子,也不可摸,否則你們就會死。』」 4 蛇對女人說:「你們一定不會死! 5 上帝那樣說是因為祂知道你們吃了那樹的果子以後,眼睛就會明亮,像上帝一樣懂得分辨善惡。」 6 女人見那棵樹上的果子可口,賞心悅目,可以使人有智慧,就摘下來吃了。她也把果子給跟她在一起的丈夫,他也吃了。 7 二人的眼睛果然明亮起來,這才發覺自己原來赤身露體,便把無花果樹的葉子編起來遮體。
8 傍晚天涼時,夫婦二人聽見耶和華上帝在園中行走的聲音,就藏在園子的樹叢中,想躲開耶和華上帝。 9 耶和華上帝呼喚那人說:「你在哪裡?」 10 那人說:「我聽見你在園中行走的聲音,就害怕得躲了起來,因為我赤身露體!」 11 耶和華上帝問:「誰說你赤身露體?難道你吃了我吩咐你不可吃的果子嗎?」 12 那人說:「你賜給我作伴的女人摘了那樹上的果子給我,我就吃了。」 13 耶和華上帝對女人說:「你這做的是什麼事?」女人說:「是蛇誘騙我,我才吃的。」
上帝的審判
14 耶和華上帝對蛇說:
「你既然做了這事,
你要比一切的牲畜和野獸受更重的咒詛,
你要用肚子爬行,
一生都要吃塵土。
15 我要使你和女人結仇,
你的後代和女人的後代也要彼此為仇,
女人的後代必傷你的頭,
你必傷他的腳跟。」
16 耶和華上帝對女人說:
「我必大大加重你懷孕的痛苦,
你分娩時必受痛苦。
你必戀慕[b]自己的丈夫,
你的丈夫必管轄你。」
17 耶和華上帝又對亞當說:
「因為你聽從妻子的話,
吃了我吩咐你不可吃的果子,
地必因你而受咒詛。
你必終生艱辛勞苦,
才能吃到地裡出產的食物。
18 地必給你長出荊棘和蒺藜,
你要吃田間長出來的菜蔬。
19 你必汗流滿面,才有飯吃,
一直到你歸回塵土。
因為你是塵土造的,
也必歸回塵土。」
20 亞當給他的妻子取名叫夏娃,因為她是眾生之母。 21 耶和華上帝做了皮衣給他們夫婦穿。 22 耶和華上帝說:「看啊,那人已經與我們相似,能分辨善惡。現在,恐怕他會伸手去摘生命樹的果子吃,那樣他就會永遠活著。」 23 因此,耶和華上帝就把亞當趕出伊甸園,讓他去開墾土地——他的本源。 24 上帝趕走了亞當以後,就派遣基路伯天使駐守在伊甸園東邊,又用一把旋轉的火劍守護在通往生命樹的路上。
Genesis 1-3
New International Version
The Beginning
1 In the beginning(A) God created(B) the heavens(C) and the earth.(D) 2 Now the earth was formless(E) and empty,(F) darkness was over the surface of the deep,(G) and the Spirit of God(H) was hovering(I) over the waters.
3 And God said,(J) “Let there be light,” and there was light.(K) 4 God saw that the light was good,(L) and he separated the light from the darkness.(M) 5 God called(N) the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.”(O) And there was evening, and there was morning(P)—the first day.
6 And God said,(Q) “Let there be a vault(R) between the waters(S) to separate water from water.” 7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it.(T) And it was so.(U) 8 God called(V) the vault “sky.”(W) And there was evening, and there was morning(X)—the second day.
9 And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place,(Y) and let dry ground(Z) appear.” And it was so.(AA) 10 God called(AB) the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters(AC) he called “seas.”(AD) And God saw that it was good.(AE)
11 Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation:(AF) seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.(AG)” And it was so.(AH) 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds(AI) and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.(AJ) 13 And there was evening, and there was morning(AK)—the third day.
14 And God said, “Let there be lights(AL) in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night,(AM) and let them serve as signs(AN) to mark sacred times,(AO) and days and years,(AP) 15 and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so.(AQ) 16 God made two great lights—the greater light(AR) to govern(AS) the day and the lesser light to govern(AT) the night.(AU) He also made the stars.(AV) 17 God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, 18 to govern the day and the night,(AW) and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good.(AX) 19 And there was evening, and there was morning(AY)—the fourth day.
20 And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures,(AZ) and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.”(BA) 21 So God created(BB) the great creatures of the sea(BC) and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it,(BD) according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind.(BE) And God saw that it was good.(BF) 22 God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.”(BG) 23 And there was evening, and there was morning(BH)—the fifth day.
24 And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures(BI) according to their kinds:(BJ) the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so.(BK) 25 God made the wild animals(BL) according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds.(BM) And God saw that it was good.(BN)
26 Then God said, “Let us(BO) make mankind(BP) in our image,(BQ) in our likeness,(BR) so that they may rule(BS) over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky,(BT) over the livestock and all the wild animals,[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
27 So God created(BU) mankind(BV) in his own image,(BW)
in the image of God(BX) he created them;
male and female(BY) he created them.(BZ)
28 God blessed them and said to them,(CA) “Be fruitful and increase in number;(CB) fill the earth(CC) and subdue it. Rule over(CD) the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.(CE)”
29 Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.(CF) 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life(CG) in it—I give every green plant for food.(CH)” And it was so.
31 God saw all that he had made,(CI) and it was very good.(CJ) And there was evening, and there was morning(CK)—the sixth day.
2 Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.(CL)
2 By the seventh day(CM) God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work.(CN) 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy,(CO) because on it he rested(CP) from all the work of creating(CQ) that he had done.
Adam and Eve
4 This is the account(CR) of the heavens and the earth when they were created,(CS) when the Lord God made the earth and the heavens.
5 Now no shrub had yet appeared on the earth[b] and no plant had yet sprung up,(CT) for the Lord God had not sent rain on the earth(CU) and there was no one to work the ground, 6 but streams[c] came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground. 7 Then the Lord God formed(CV) a man[d](CW) from the dust(CX) of the ground(CY) and breathed into his nostrils the breath(CZ) of life,(DA) and the man became a living being.(DB)
8 Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden;(DC) and there he put the man he had formed. 9 The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees(DD) that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life(DE) and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.(DF)
10 A river(DG) watering the garden flowed from Eden;(DH) from there it was separated into four headwaters. 11 The name of the first is the Pishon; it winds through the entire land of Havilah,(DI) where there is gold. 12 (The gold of that land is good; aromatic resin[e](DJ) and onyx are also there.) 13 The name of the second river is the Gihon; it winds through the entire land of Cush.[f] 14 The name of the third river is the Tigris;(DK) it runs along the east side of Ashur. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.(DL)
15 The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden(DM) to work it and take care of it. 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden;(DN) 17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,(DO) for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”(DP)
18 The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”(DQ)
19 Now the Lord God had formed out of the ground all the wild animals(DR) and all the birds in the sky.(DS) He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called(DT) each living creature,(DU) that was its name. 20 So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds in the sky and all the wild animals.
But for Adam[g] no suitable helper(DV) was found. 21 So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep;(DW) and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs[h] and then closed up the place with flesh. 22 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib[i](DX) he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.
23 The man said,
“This is now bone of my bones
and flesh of my flesh;(DY)
she shall be called(DZ) ‘woman,’
for she was taken out of man.(EA)”
24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united(EB) to his wife, and they become one flesh.(EC)
25 Adam and his wife were both naked,(ED) and they felt no shame.
The Fall
3 Now the serpent(EE) was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?(EF)”
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden,(EG) 3 but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”(EH)
4 “You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman.(EI) 5 “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God,(EJ) knowing good and evil.”
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable(EK) for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband,(EL) who was with her, and he ate it.(EM) 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked;(EN) so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.(EO)
8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking(EP) in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid(EQ) from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?”(ER)
10 He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid(ES) because I was naked;(ET) so I hid.”
11 And he said, “Who told you that you were naked?(EU) Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?(EV)”
12 The man said, “The woman you put here with me(EW)—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”
The woman said, “The serpent deceived me,(EX) and I ate.”
14 So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,
“Cursed(EY) are you above all livestock
and all wild animals!
You will crawl on your belly
and you will eat dust(EZ)
all the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring[j](FA) and hers;(FB)
he will crush[k] your head,(FC)
and you will strike his heel.”
16 To the woman he said,
“I will make your pains in childbearing very severe;
with painful labor you will give birth to children.(FD)
Your desire will be for your husband,
and he will rule over you.(FE)”
17 To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’(FF)
“Cursed(FG) is the ground(FH) because of you;
through painful toil(FI) you will eat food from it
all the days of your life.(FJ)
18 It will produce thorns and thistles(FK) for you,
and you will eat the plants of the field.(FL)
19 By the sweat of your brow(FM)
you will eat your food(FN)
until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
and to dust you will return.”(FO)
20 Adam[l] named his wife Eve,[m](FP) because she would become the mother of all the living.
21 The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.(FQ) 22 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us,(FR) knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life(FS) and eat, and live forever.” 23 So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden(FT) to work the ground(FU) from which he had been taken. 24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side[n] of the Garden of Eden(FV) cherubim(FW) and a flaming sword(FX) flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.(FY)

1 太初,上帝创造了天地。 2 那时,大地空虚混沌,还没有成形,黑暗笼罩着深渊,上帝的灵运行在水面上。 3 上帝说:“要有光!”就有了光。 4 上帝看光是好的,就把光和暗分开, 5 称光为昼,称暗为夜。晚上过去,早晨到来,这是第一天[a]。 6 上帝说:“水与水之间要有穹苍,把水分开。” 7 果然如此。上帝开辟了穹苍,用穹苍将水上下分开。 8 上帝称穹苍为天空。晚上过去,早晨到来,这是第二天。
9 上帝说:“天空下面的水要聚在一处,使干地露出来。”果然如此。 10 上帝称干地为陆地,称水汇聚的地方为海洋。上帝看了,感到满意。 11 上帝说:“陆地要长出植物——各类结种子的菜蔬和结果子的树木,果子内都有籽。”果然如此, 12 陆地长出了植物——各类结种子的菜蔬和结果子的树木,果子内都有籽。上帝看了,感到满意。 13 晚上过去,早晨到来,这是第三天。
14 上帝说:“天空要有光体,以区分昼夜,作记号,定节令,计算年日, 15 发光普照大地。”果然如此。 16 上帝造了两个大光体,较大的管白昼,较小的管黑夜,又造了星辰。 17 上帝把这些光体摆列在天空,让它们发光普照大地, 18 管理昼夜,分开明暗。上帝看了,感到满意。 19 晚上过去,早晨到来,这是第四天。
20 上帝说:“水中要充满各种动物,空中要有禽鸟飞翔。” 21 上帝就造了海中的大鱼等各类水族和各类禽鸟。上帝看了,感到满意。 22 上帝赐福给这一切生物,说:“水族要生养繁殖,充满海洋,禽鸟也要在地上多多地繁殖。” 23 晚上过去,早晨到来,这是第五天。 24 上帝说:“大地要繁衍各类动物——各类的牲畜、爬虫和野兽。”果然如此。 25 上帝造了各类的野兽、牲畜和爬虫。上帝看了,感到满意。
上帝照自己的形象造人
26 上帝说:“我们要照着我们的形象,按着我们的样子造人,让他们管理海里的鱼、空中的鸟和地上的牲畜及一切爬虫。” 27 上帝就照着自己的形象造了人,祂照着自己的形象造了男人和女人。 28 上帝赐福给他们,对他们说:“你们要生养众多,遍布地面,治理大地,管理海里的鱼、空中的鸟以及地上的各种动物。” 29 上帝对人说:“看啊,我把地上所有结种子的菜蔬和所有树上有籽的果子都赐给你们作食物。 30 我把植物赐给所有地上的走兽、空中的飞鸟及地上的爬虫作食物。”果然如此。 31 上帝看了,感到非常满意。晚上过去,早晨到来,这是第六天。
2 天地万物都造好了。 2 第七天,上帝完成了祂的创造之工,就在第七天歇了一切的工。 3 上帝赐福给第七天,将其定为圣日,因为祂在这一天歇了祂一切的创造之工。 4 这是有关创造天地的记载。
上帝造亚当和夏娃
耶和华上帝创造天地的时候, 5 地上还没有草木菜蔬,因为耶和华上帝还没有降雨在地上,土地也没有人耕作, 6 但有水从地里涌出,浇灌大地。 7 耶和华上帝用地上的尘土造了人,把生命的气息吹进他的鼻孔里,他就成了有生命的人。 8 耶和华上帝在东方的伊甸开辟了一个园子,把祂所造的人安置在里面。 9 耶和华上帝使地面长出各种树木,它们既好看又能结出可吃的果子。在园子的中间有生命树和分别善恶的树。
10 有一条河从伊甸流出来灌溉那园子,又从那里分出四条支流。 11 第一条支流叫比逊河,它环绕着哈腓拉全境。那里有金子, 12 且是上好的金子,还有珍珠和红玛瑙。 13 第二条支流是基训河,它环绕着古实全境。 14 第三条支流名叫底格里斯河,它流经亚述的东边。第四条支流是幼发拉底河。
15 耶和华上帝把那人安置在伊甸的园子里,让他在那里耕种、看管园子。 16 耶和华上帝吩咐那人说:“你可以随意吃园中所有树上的果子, 17 只是不可吃那棵分别善恶树的果子,因为你若吃了,当天必死。”
18 耶和华上帝说:“那人独自一人不好,我要为他造一个相配的帮手。” 19 耶和华上帝用尘土造了各种田野的走兽和空中的飞鸟,把它们带到那人跟前,看他怎么称呼这些动物。他叫这些动物什么,它们的名字就是什么。 20 那人给所有的牲畜及田野的走兽和空中的飞鸟都起了名字。可是他找不到一个跟自己相配的帮手。 21 耶和华上帝使那人沉睡,然后从他身上取出一根肋骨,再把肉合起来。 22 耶和华上帝用那根肋骨造成一个女人,带到那人跟前。 23 那人说:
“这才是我的同类,
我骨中的骨,肉中的肉,
要称她为女人,
因为她是从男人身上取出来的。”
24 因此,人要离开父母,与妻子结合,二人成为一体。 25 当时,他们夫妇二人都赤身露体,并不觉得羞耻。
始祖犯罪
3 在耶和华上帝所造的田野的各种动物中,蛇最狡猾。蛇对女人说:“上帝真的说过不许你们吃园中所有树上的果子吗?” 2 女人回答说:“我们可以吃园中树上的果子, 3 只是不可以吃园子中间那棵树的果子。上帝曾经吩咐说,‘你们不可吃那果子,也不可摸,否则你们就会死。’” 4 蛇对女人说:“你们一定不会死! 5 上帝那样说是因为祂知道你们吃了那树的果子以后,眼睛就会明亮,像上帝一样懂得分辨善恶。” 6 女人见那棵树上的果子可口,赏心悦目,可以使人有智慧,就摘下来吃了。她也把果子给跟她在一起的丈夫,他也吃了。 7 二人的眼睛果然明亮起来,这才发觉自己原来赤身露体,便把无花果树的叶子编起来遮体。
8 傍晚天凉时,夫妇二人听见耶和华上帝在园中行走的声音,就藏在园子的树丛中,想躲开耶和华上帝。 9 耶和华上帝呼唤那人说:“你在哪里?” 10 那人说:“我听见你在园中行走的声音,就害怕得躲了起来,因为我赤身露体!” 11 耶和华上帝问:“谁说你赤身露体?难道你吃了我吩咐你不可吃的果子吗?” 12 那人说:“你赐给我作伴的女人摘了那树上的果子给我,我就吃了。” 13 耶和华上帝对女人说:“你这做的是什么事?”女人说:“是蛇诱骗我,我才吃的。”
上帝的审判
14 耶和华上帝对蛇说:
“你既然做了这事,
你要比一切的牲畜和野兽受更重的咒诅,
你要用肚子爬行,
一生都要吃尘土。
15 我要使你和女人结仇,
你的后代和女人的后代也要彼此为仇,
女人的后代必伤你的头,
你必伤他的脚跟。”
16 耶和华上帝对女人说:
“我必大大加重你怀孕的痛苦,
你分娩时必受痛苦。
你必恋慕[b]自己的丈夫,
你的丈夫必管辖你。”
17 耶和华上帝又对亚当说:
“因为你听从妻子的话,
吃了我吩咐你不可吃的果子,
地必因你而受咒诅。
你必终生艰辛劳苦,
才能吃到地里出产的食物。
18 地必给你长出荆棘和蒺藜,
你要吃田间长出来的菜蔬。
19 你必汗流满面,才有饭吃,
一直到你归回尘土。
因为你是尘土造的,
也必归回尘土。”
20 亚当给他的妻子取名叫夏娃,因为她是众生之母。 21 耶和华上帝做了皮衣给他们夫妇穿。 22 耶和华上帝说:“看啊,那人已经与我们相似,能分辨善恶。现在,恐怕他会伸手去摘生命树的果子吃,那样他就会永远活着。” 23 因此,耶和华上帝就把亚当赶出伊甸园,让他去开垦土地——他的本源。 24 上帝赶走了亚当以后,就派遣基路伯天使驻守在伊甸园东边,又用一把旋转的火剑守护在通往生命树的路上。

Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
上帝創造天地
1 太初,上帝創造了天地。 2 那時,大地空虛混沌,還沒有成形,黑暗籠罩著深淵,上帝的靈運行在水面上。 3 上帝說:「要有光!」就有了光。 4 上帝看光是好的,就把光和暗分開, 5 稱光為晝,稱暗為夜。晚上過去,早晨到來,這是第一天[a]。 6 上帝說:「水與水之間要有穹蒼,把水分開。」 7 果然如此。上帝開闢了穹蒼,用穹蒼將水上下分開。 8 上帝稱穹蒼為天空。晚上過去,早晨到來,這是第二天。
9 上帝說:「天空下面的水要聚在一處,使乾地露出來。」果然如此。 10 上帝稱乾地為陸地,稱水匯聚的地方為海洋。上帝看了,感到滿意。 11 上帝說:「陸地要長出植物——各類結種子的菜蔬和結果子的樹木,果子內都有籽。」果然如此, 12 陸地長出了植物——各類結種子的菜蔬和結果子的樹木,果子內都有籽。上帝看了,感到滿意。 13 晚上過去,早晨到來,這是第三天。
14 上帝說:「天空要有光體,以區分晝夜,作記號,定節令,計算年日, 15 發光普照大地。」果然如此。 16 上帝造了兩個大光體,較大的管白晝,較小的管黑夜,又造了星辰。 17 上帝把這些光體擺列在天空,讓它們發光普照大地, 18 管理晝夜,分開明暗。上帝看了,感到滿意。 19 晚上過去,早晨到來,這是第四天。
20 上帝說:「水中要充滿各種動物,空中要有禽鳥飛翔。」 21 上帝就造了海中的大魚等各類水族和各類禽鳥。上帝看了,感到滿意。 22 上帝賜福給這一切生物,說:「水族要生養繁殖,充滿海洋,禽鳥也要在地上多多地繁殖。」 23 晚上過去,早晨到來,這是第五天。 24 上帝說:「大地要繁衍各類動物——各類的牲畜、爬蟲和野獸。」果然如此。 25 上帝造了各類的野獸、牲畜和爬蟲。上帝看了,感到滿意。
上帝照自己的形像造人
26 上帝說:「我們要照著我們的形像,按著我們的樣子造人,讓他們管理海裡的魚、空中的鳥和地上的牲畜及一切爬蟲。」 27 上帝就照著自己的形像造了人,祂照著自己的形像造了男人和女人。 28 上帝賜福給他們,對他們說:「你們要生養眾多,遍佈地面,治理大地,管理海裡的魚、空中的鳥以及地上的各種動物。」 29 上帝對人說:「看啊,我把地上所有結種子的菜蔬和所有樹上有籽的果子都賜給你們作食物。 30 我把植物賜給所有地上的走獸、空中的飛鳥及地上的爬蟲作食物。」果然如此。 31 上帝看了,感到非常滿意。晚上過去,早晨到來,這是第六天。
2 天地萬物都造好了。 2 第七天,上帝完成了祂的創造之工,就在第七天歇了一切的工。 3 上帝賜福給第七天,將其定為聖日,因為祂在這一天歇了祂一切的創造之工。 4 這是有關創造天地的記載。
上帝造亞當和夏娃
耶和華上帝創造天地的時候, 5 地上還沒有草木菜蔬,因為耶和華上帝還沒有降雨在地上,土地也沒有人耕作, 6 但有水從地裡湧出,澆灌大地。 7 耶和華上帝用地上的塵土造了人,把生命的氣息吹進他的鼻孔裡,他就成了有生命的人。 8 耶和華上帝在東方的伊甸開闢了一個園子,把祂所造的人安置在裡面。 9 耶和華上帝使地面長出各種樹木,它們既好看又能結出可吃的果子。在園子的中間有生命樹和分別善惡的樹。
10 有一條河從伊甸流出來灌溉那園子,又從那裡分出四條支流。 11 第一條支流叫比遜河,它環繞著哈腓拉全境。那裡有金子, 12 且是上好的金子,還有珍珠和紅瑪瑙。 13 第二條支流是基訓河,它環繞著古實全境。 14 第三條支流名叫底格里斯河,它流經亞述的東邊。第四條支流是幼發拉底河。
15 耶和華上帝把那人安置在伊甸的園子裡,讓他在那裡耕種、看管園子。 16 耶和華上帝吩咐那人說:「你可以隨意吃園中所有樹上的果子, 17 只是不可吃那棵分別善惡樹的果子,因為你若吃了,當天必死。」
18 耶和華上帝說:「那人獨自一人不好,我要為他造一個相配的幫手。」 19 耶和華上帝用塵土造了各種田野的走獸和空中的飛鳥,把牠們帶到那人跟前,看他怎麼稱呼這些動物。他叫這些動物什麼,牠們的名字就是什麼。 20 那人給所有的牲畜及田野的走獸和空中的飛鳥都起了名字。可是他找不到一個跟自己相配的幫手。 21 耶和華上帝使那人沉睡,然後從他身上取出一根肋骨,再把肉合起來。 22 耶和華上帝用那根肋骨造成一個女人,帶到那人跟前。 23 那人說:
「這才是我的同類,
我骨中的骨,肉中的肉,
要稱她為女人,
因為她是從男人身上取出來的。」
24 因此,人要離開父母,與妻子結合,二人成為一體。 25 當時,他們夫婦二人都赤身露體,並不覺得羞恥。
始祖犯罪
3 在耶和華上帝所造的田野的各種動物中,蛇最狡猾。蛇對女人說:「上帝真的說過不許你們吃園中所有樹上的果子嗎?」 2 女人回答說:「我們可以吃園中樹上的果子, 3 只是不可以吃園子中間那棵樹的果子。上帝曾經吩咐說,『你們不可吃那果子,也不可摸,否則你們就會死。』」 4 蛇對女人說:「你們一定不會死! 5 上帝那樣說是因為祂知道你們吃了那樹的果子以後,眼睛就會明亮,像上帝一樣懂得分辨善惡。」 6 女人見那棵樹上的果子可口,賞心悅目,可以使人有智慧,就摘下來吃了。她也把果子給跟她在一起的丈夫,他也吃了。 7 二人的眼睛果然明亮起來,這才發覺自己原來赤身露體,便把無花果樹的葉子編起來遮體。
8 傍晚天涼時,夫婦二人聽見耶和華上帝在園中行走的聲音,就藏在園子的樹叢中,想躲開耶和華上帝。 9 耶和華上帝呼喚那人說:「你在哪裡?」 10 那人說:「我聽見你在園中行走的聲音,就害怕得躲了起來,因為我赤身露體!」 11 耶和華上帝問:「誰說你赤身露體?難道你吃了我吩咐你不可吃的果子嗎?」 12 那人說:「你賜給我作伴的女人摘了那樹上的果子給我,我就吃了。」 13 耶和華上帝對女人說:「你這做的是什麼事?」女人說:「是蛇誘騙我,我才吃的。」
上帝的審判
14 耶和華上帝對蛇說:
「你既然做了這事,
你要比一切的牲畜和野獸受更重的咒詛,
你要用肚子爬行,
一生都要吃塵土。
15 我要使你和女人結仇,
你的後代和女人的後代也要彼此為仇,
女人的後代必傷你的頭,
你必傷他的腳跟。」
16 耶和華上帝對女人說:
「我必大大加重你懷孕的痛苦,
你分娩時必受痛苦。
你必戀慕[b]自己的丈夫,
你的丈夫必管轄你。」
17 耶和華上帝又對亞當說:
「因為你聽從妻子的話,
吃了我吩咐你不可吃的果子,
地必因你而受咒詛。
你必終生艱辛勞苦,
才能吃到地裡出產的食物。
18 地必給你長出荊棘和蒺藜,
你要吃田間長出來的菜蔬。
19 你必汗流滿面,才有飯吃,
一直到你歸回塵土。
因為你是塵土造的,
也必歸回塵土。」
20 亞當給他的妻子取名叫夏娃,因為她是眾生之母。 21 耶和華上帝做了皮衣給他們夫婦穿。 22 耶和華上帝說:「看啊,那人已經與我們相似,能分辨善惡。現在,恐怕他會伸手去摘生命樹的果子吃,那樣他就會永遠活著。」 23 因此,耶和華上帝就把亞當趕出伊甸園,讓他去開墾土地——他的本源。 24 上帝趕走了亞當以後,就派遣基路伯天使駐守在伊甸園東邊,又用一把旋轉的火劍守護在通往生命樹的路上。
Genesis 1-3
New International Version
The Beginning
1 In the beginning(A) God created(B) the heavens(C) and the earth.(D) 2 Now the earth was formless(E) and empty,(F) darkness was over the surface of the deep,(G) and the Spirit of God(H) was hovering(I) over the waters.
3 And God said,(J) “Let there be light,” and there was light.(K) 4 God saw that the light was good,(L) and he separated the light from the darkness.(M) 5 God called(N) the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.”(O) And there was evening, and there was morning(P)—the first day.
6 And God said,(Q) “Let there be a vault(R) between the waters(S) to separate water from water.” 7 So God made the vault and separated the water under the vault from the water above it.(T) And it was so.(U) 8 God called(V) the vault “sky.”(W) And there was evening, and there was morning(X)—the second day.
9 And God said, “Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place,(Y) and let dry ground(Z) appear.” And it was so.(AA) 10 God called(AB) the dry ground “land,” and the gathered waters(AC) he called “seas.”(AD) And God saw that it was good.(AE)
11 Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation:(AF) seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.(AG)” And it was so.(AH) 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds(AI) and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.(AJ) 13 And there was evening, and there was morning(AK)—the third day.
14 And God said, “Let there be lights(AL) in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night,(AM) and let them serve as signs(AN) to mark sacred times,(AO) and days and years,(AP) 15 and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth.” And it was so.(AQ) 16 God made two great lights—the greater light(AR) to govern(AS) the day and the lesser light to govern(AT) the night.(AU) He also made the stars.(AV) 17 God set them in the vault of the sky to give light on the earth, 18 to govern the day and the night,(AW) and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good.(AX) 19 And there was evening, and there was morning(AY)—the fourth day.
20 And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures,(AZ) and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.”(BA) 21 So God created(BB) the great creatures of the sea(BC) and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it,(BD) according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind.(BE) And God saw that it was good.(BF) 22 God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.”(BG) 23 And there was evening, and there was morning(BH)—the fifth day.
24 And God said, “Let the land produce living creatures(BI) according to their kinds:(BJ) the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.” And it was so.(BK) 25 God made the wild animals(BL) according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds.(BM) And God saw that it was good.(BN)
26 Then God said, “Let us(BO) make mankind(BP) in our image,(BQ) in our likeness,(BR) so that they may rule(BS) over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky,(BT) over the livestock and all the wild animals,[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
27 So God created(BU) mankind(BV) in his own image,(BW)
in the image of God(BX) he created them;
male and female(BY) he created them.(BZ)
28 God blessed them and said to them,(CA) “Be fruitful and increase in number;(CB) fill the earth(CC) and subdue it. Rule over(CD) the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.(CE)”
29 Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.(CF) 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds in the sky and all the creatures that move along the ground—everything that has the breath of life(CG) in it—I give every green plant for food.(CH)” And it was so.
31 God saw all that he had made,(CI) and it was very good.(CJ) And there was evening, and there was morning(CK)—the sixth day.
2 Thus the heavens and the earth were completed in all their vast array.(CL)
2 By the seventh day(CM) God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work.(CN) 3 Then God blessed the seventh day and made it holy,(CO) because on it he rested(CP) from all the work of creating(CQ) that he had done.
Adam and Eve
4 This is the account(CR) of the heavens and the earth when they were created,(CS) when the Lord God made the earth and the heavens.
5 Now no shrub had yet appeared on the earth[b] and no plant had yet sprung up,(CT) for the Lord God had not sent rain on the earth(CU) and there was no one to work the ground, 6 but streams[c] came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground. 7 Then the Lord God formed(CV) a man[d](CW) from the dust(CX) of the ground(CY) and breathed into his nostrils the breath(CZ) of life,(DA) and the man became a living being.(DB)
8 Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden;(DC) and there he put the man he had formed. 9 The Lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees(DD) that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life(DE) and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.(DF)
10 A river(DG) watering the garden flowed from Eden;(DH) from there it was separated into four headwaters. 11 The name of the first is the Pishon; it winds through the entire land of Havilah,(DI) where there is gold. 12 (The gold of that land is good; aromatic resin[e](DJ) and onyx are also there.) 13 The name of the second river is the Gihon; it winds through the entire land of Cush.[f] 14 The name of the third river is the Tigris;(DK) it runs along the east side of Ashur. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.(DL)
15 The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden(DM) to work it and take care of it. 16 And the Lord God commanded the man, “You are free to eat from any tree in the garden;(DN) 17 but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil,(DO) for when you eat from it you will certainly die.”(DP)
18 The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”(DQ)
19 Now the Lord God had formed out of the ground all the wild animals(DR) and all the birds in the sky.(DS) He brought them to the man to see what he would name them; and whatever the man called(DT) each living creature,(DU) that was its name. 20 So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds in the sky and all the wild animals.
But for Adam[g] no suitable helper(DV) was found. 21 So the Lord God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep;(DW) and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs[h] and then closed up the place with flesh. 22 Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib[i](DX) he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.
23 The man said,
“This is now bone of my bones
and flesh of my flesh;(DY)
she shall be called(DZ) ‘woman,’
for she was taken out of man.(EA)”
24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united(EB) to his wife, and they become one flesh.(EC)
25 Adam and his wife were both naked,(ED) and they felt no shame.
The Fall
3 Now the serpent(EE) was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?(EF)”
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden,(EG) 3 but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”(EH)
4 “You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman.(EI) 5 “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God,(EJ) knowing good and evil.”
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable(EK) for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband,(EL) who was with her, and he ate it.(EM) 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked;(EN) so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.(EO)
8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking(EP) in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid(EQ) from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?”(ER)
10 He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid(ES) because I was naked;(ET) so I hid.”
11 And he said, “Who told you that you were naked?(EU) Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?(EV)”
12 The man said, “The woman you put here with me(EW)—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”
The woman said, “The serpent deceived me,(EX) and I ate.”
14 So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,
“Cursed(EY) are you above all livestock
and all wild animals!
You will crawl on your belly
and you will eat dust(EZ)
all the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring[j](FA) and hers;(FB)
he will crush[k] your head,(FC)
and you will strike his heel.”
16 To the woman he said,
“I will make your pains in childbearing very severe;
with painful labor you will give birth to children.(FD)
Your desire will be for your husband,
and he will rule over you.(FE)”
17 To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’(FF)
“Cursed(FG) is the ground(FH) because of you;
through painful toil(FI) you will eat food from it
all the days of your life.(FJ)
18 It will produce thorns and thistles(FK) for you,
and you will eat the plants of the field.(FL)
19 By the sweat of your brow(FM)
you will eat your food(FN)
until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
and to dust you will return.”(FO)
20 Adam[l] named his wife Eve,[m](FP) because she would become the mother of all the living.
21 The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.(FQ) 22 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us,(FR) knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life(FS) and eat, and live forever.” 23 So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden(FT) to work the ground(FU) from which he had been taken. 24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side[n] of the Garden of Eden(FV) cherubim(FW) and a flaming sword(FX) flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.(FY)

Matthew 1
New International Version
The Genealogy of Jesus the Messiah(A)(B)(C)
1 This is the genealogy[a] of Jesus the Messiah[b] the son of David,(D) the son of Abraham:(E)
2 Abraham was the father of Isaac,(F)
Isaac the father of Jacob,(G)
Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers,(H)
3 Judah the father of Perez and Zerah, whose mother was Tamar,(I)
Perez the father of Hezron,
Hezron the father of Ram,
4 Ram the father of Amminadab,
Amminadab the father of Nahshon,
Nahshon the father of Salmon,
5 Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was Rahab,(J)
Boaz the father of Obed, whose mother was Ruth,
Obed the father of Jesse,
6 and Jesse the father of King David.(K)
David was the father of Solomon, whose mother had been Uriah’s wife,(L)
7 Solomon the father of Rehoboam,
Rehoboam the father of Abijah,
Abijah the father of Asa,
8 Asa the father of Jehoshaphat,
Jehoshaphat the father of Jehoram,
Jehoram the father of Uzziah,
9 Uzziah the father of Jotham,
Jotham the father of Ahaz,
Ahaz the father of Hezekiah,
10 Hezekiah the father of Manasseh,(M)
Manasseh the father of Amon,
Amon the father of Josiah,
11 and Josiah the father of Jeconiah[c] and his brothers at the time of the exile to Babylon.(N)
12 After the exile to Babylon:
Jeconiah was the father of Shealtiel,(O)
Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel,(P)
13 Zerubbabel the father of Abihud,
Abihud the father of Eliakim,

16 and Jacob the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary,(Q) and Mary was the mother of Jesus who is called the Messiah.(R)
17 Thus there were fourteen generations in all from Abraham to David, fourteen from David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Messiah.
Joseph Accepts Jesus as His Son
18 This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about[d]: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit.(S) 19 Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet[e] did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce(T) her quietly.
20 But after he had considered this, an angel(U) of the Lord appeared to him in a dream(V) and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus,[f](W) because he will save his people from their sins.”(X)
22 All this took place to fulfill(Y) what the Lord had said through the prophet: 23 “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”[g](Z) (which means “God with us”).
24 When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel(AA) of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. 25 But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.(AB)
