始祖被誘惑

耶和華神所造的,唯有蛇比田野一切的活物更狡猾。蛇對女人說:「神豈是真說,不許你們吃園中所有樹上的果子嗎?」 女人對蛇說:「園中樹上的果子我們可以吃, 唯有園當中那棵樹上的果子,神曾說:『你們不可吃,也不可摸,免得你們死。』」 蛇對女人說:「你們不一定死! 因為神知道你們吃的日子眼睛就明亮了,你們便如神能知道善惡。」

違背主命

於是女人見那棵樹的果子好做食物,也悅人的眼目,且是可喜愛的,能使人有智慧,就摘下果子來吃了;又給她丈夫,她丈夫也吃了。 他們二人的眼睛就明亮了,才知道自己是赤身露體,便拿無花果樹的葉子,為自己編做裙子。 天起了涼風,耶和華神在園中行走,那人和他妻子聽見神的聲音,就藏在園裡的樹木中,躲避耶和華神的面。 耶和華神呼喚那人,對他說:「你在哪裡?」 10 他說:「我在園中聽見你的聲音,我就害怕,因為我赤身露體。我便藏了。」 11 耶和華說:「誰告訴你赤身露體呢?莫非你吃了我吩咐你不可吃的那樹上的果子嗎?」 12 那人說:「你所賜給我與我同居的女人,她把那樹上的果子給我,我就吃了。」 13 耶和華神對女人說:「你做的是什麼事呢?」女人說:「那蛇引誘我,我就吃了。」 14 耶和華神對蛇說:「你既做了這事,就必受咒詛,比一切的牲畜野獸更甚!你必用肚子行走,終身吃土。 15 我又要叫你和女人彼此為仇,你的後裔和女人的後裔也彼此為仇,女人的後裔要傷你的頭,你要傷他的腳跟。」 16 又對女人說:「我必多多加增你懷胎的苦楚,你生產兒女必多受苦楚。你必戀慕你丈夫,你丈夫必管轄你。」 17 又對亞當說:「你既聽從妻子的話,吃了我所吩咐你不可吃的那樹上的果子,地必為你的緣故受咒詛,你必終身勞苦,才能從地裡得吃的。 18 地必給你長出荊棘和蒺藜來,你也要吃田間的菜蔬。 19 你必汗流滿面才得糊口,直到你歸了土,因為你是從土而出的。你本是塵土,仍要歸於塵土。」 20 亞當給他妻子起名叫夏娃,因為她是眾生之母。 21 耶和華神為亞當和他妻子用皮子做衣服給他們穿。

逐出伊甸

22 耶和華神說:「那人已經與我們相似,能知道善惡。現在恐怕他伸手又摘生命樹的果子吃,就永遠活著。」 23 耶和華神便打發他出伊甸園去,耕種他所自出之土。 24 於是把他趕出去了,又在伊甸園的東邊安設基路伯和四面轉動發火焰的劍,要把守生命樹的道路。

Knowledge, not eternal life

The snake was the most intelligent[a] of all the wild animals that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say that you shouldn’t eat from any tree in the garden?”

The woman said to the snake, “We may eat the fruit of the garden’s trees but not the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden. God said, ‘Don’t eat from it, and don’t touch it, or you will die.’”

The snake said to the woman, “You won’t die! God knows that on the day you eat from it, you will see clearly and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” The woman saw that the tree was beautiful with delicious food and that the tree would provide wisdom, so she took some of its fruit and ate it, and also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. Then they both saw clearly and knew that they were naked. So they sewed fig leaves together and made garments for themselves.

During that day’s cool evening breeze, they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden; and the man and his wife hid themselves from the Lord God in the middle of the garden’s trees. The Lord God called to the man and said to him, “Where are you?”

10 The man[b] replied, “I heard your sound in the garden; I was afraid because I was naked, and I hid myself.”

11 He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Did you eat from the tree, which I commanded you not to eat?”

12 The man said, “The woman you gave me, she gave me some fruit[c] from the tree, and I ate.”

13 The Lord God said to the woman, “What have you done?!”

And the woman said, “The snake tricked me, and I ate.”

14 The Lord God said to the snake,

“Because you did this,
    you are the one cursed
        out of all the farm animals,
        out of all the wild animals.
    On your belly you will crawl,
        and dust you will eat
        every day of your life.

15 I will put contempt

    between you and the woman,
    between your offspring and hers.
They will strike your head,
        but you will strike at their heels.”

16 To the woman he said,

“I will make your pregnancy very painful;
            in pain you will bear children.
You will desire your husband,
        but he will rule over you.”

17 To the man he said, “Because you listened to your wife’s voice and you ate from the tree that I commanded, ‘Don’t eat from it,’

cursed is the fertile land because of you;
        in pain you will eat from it
        every day of your life.
18 Weeds and thistles will grow for you,
        even as you eat the field’s plants;
19     by the sweat of your face you will eat bread—
        until you return to the fertile land,
            since from it you were taken;
            you are soil,
                to the soil you will return.”

20 The man named his wife Eve[d] because she is the mother of everyone who lives. 21 The Lord God made the man and his wife leather clothes and dressed them. 22 The Lord God said, “The human being[e] has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil.” Now, so he doesn’t stretch out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat and live forever, 23 the Lord God sent him out of the garden of Eden to farm the fertile land from which he was taken. 24 He drove out the human. To the east of the garden of Eden, he stationed winged creatures wielding flaming swords to guard the way to the tree of life.

Desobediencia y caída del hombre

La serpiente era más astuta(A) que cualquiera de los animales del campo que el Señor Dios había hecho. Y dijo a la mujer: «¿Conque Dios les ha dicho: “No comerán de ningún árbol del huerto”?». La mujer respondió a la serpiente: «Del fruto de los árboles del huerto podemos comer; pero del fruto del árbol que está en medio del huerto, Dios ha dicho: “No comerán de él, ni lo tocarán, para que no mueran(B)”». Y la serpiente dijo a la mujer: «Ciertamente no morirán(C). Pues Dios sabe que el día que de él coman, se les abrirán los ojos y ustedes serán como Dios, conociendo el bien y el mal(D)». Cuando la mujer vio que el árbol era bueno para comer, y que era agradable[a] a los ojos, y que el árbol era deseable para alcanzar sabiduría[b], tomó de su fruto y comió. También dio a su marido que estaba con ella, y él comió(E). Entonces fueron abiertos los ojos de ambos, y conocieron que estaban desnudos(F); y cosieron hojas de higuera y se hicieron delantales[c].

Sentencia por el pecado y promesa de redención

Y oyeron al[d] Señor Dios que se paseaba(G) en el huerto al fresco[e] del día. Entonces el hombre y su mujer se escondieron(H) de la presencia del Señor Dios entre los árboles del huerto. Pero el Señor Dios llamó al hombre y le dijo: «¿Dónde estás(I)?». 10 Y él respondió: «Te oí[f] en el huerto, tuve miedo(J) porque estaba desnudo, y me escondí». 11 «¿Quién te ha hecho saber que estabas desnudo?», le preguntó Dios. «¿Has comido del árbol del cual Yo te mandé que no comieras?». 12 El hombre respondió: «La mujer que Tú me diste por compañera[g] me dio del árbol, y yo comí(K)». 13 Entonces el Señor Dios dijo a la mujer: «¿Qué es esto que has hecho?». «La serpiente me engañó(L), y yo comí», respondió la mujer.

14 Y el Señor Dios dijo a la serpiente:

«Por cuanto has hecho esto,
Maldita(M) serás[h] más que todos los animales,
Y más que todas las bestias del campo.
Sobre tu vientre andarás,
Y polvo comerás(N)
Todos los días de tu vida.
15 -»Pondré enemistad
Entre tú y la mujer(O),
Y entre tu simiente y su simiente;
Él te herirá en[i] la cabeza,
Y tú lo herirás en el talón(P)».

16 A la mujer dijo:

«En gran manera multiplicaré
Tu dolor en el parto[j],
Con dolor darás a luz los hijos(Q).
Con todo, tu deseo será para tu marido,
Y él tendrá dominio sobre ti(R)».

17 Entonces el Señor dijo a Adán: «Por cuanto has escuchado la voz de tu mujer y has comido del árbol del cual te ordené, diciendo: “No comerás de él”,

Maldita(S) será[k] la tierra por tu causa;
Con trabajo[l](T) comerás de ella
Todos los días de tu vida.
18 -»Espinos y cardos te producirá,
Y comerás de las plantas[m] del campo.
19 -»Con el sudor de tu rostro
Comerás el pan
Hasta que vuelvas a la tierra(U),
Porque de ella fuiste tomado;
Pues polvo eres(V),
Y al polvo volverás».

20 El hombre le puso por nombre Eva[n](W) a su mujer, porque ella era la madre de todos los vivientes. 21 El Señor Dios hizo vestiduras de piel para Adán y su mujer, y los vistió.

Castigo por el pecado

22 Entonces el Señor Dios dijo: «Ahora el hombre ha venido a ser como uno de Nosotros(X), conociendo ellos el bien y el mal. Cuidado ahora, no vaya a extender su mano y tome también del árbol de la vida(Y), y coma y viva para siempre». 23 Y el Señor Dios lo echó del huerto del Edén, para que labrara la tierra de la cual fue tomado. 24 Expulsó, pues, al hombre(Z); y al oriente del huerto del Edén(AA) puso querubines(AB), y una espada encendida que giraba en todas direcciones para guardar el camino del árbol de la vida(AC).

The Fall

Now the serpent(A) 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’?(B)

The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden,(C) 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.’”(D)

“You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman.(E) “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God,(F) knowing good and evil.”

When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable(G) for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband,(H) who was with her, and he ate it.(I) Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked;(J) so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.(K)

Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking(L) in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid(M) from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?”(N)

10 He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid(O) because I was naked;(P) so I hid.”

11 And he said, “Who told you that you were naked?(Q) Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?(R)

12 The man said, “The woman you put here with me(S)—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,(T) and I ate.”

14 So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,

“Cursed(U) are you above all livestock
    and all wild animals!
You will crawl on your belly
    and you will eat dust(V)
    all the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity
    between you and the woman,
    and between your offspring[a](W) and hers;(X)
he will crush[b] your head,(Y)
    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.(Z)
Your desire will be for your husband,
    and he will rule over you.(AA)

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,’(AB)

“Cursed(AC) is the ground(AD) because of you;
    through painful toil(AE) you will eat food from it
    all the days of your life.(AF)
18 It will produce thorns and thistles(AG) for you,
    and you will eat the plants of the field.(AH)
19 By the sweat of your brow(AI)
    you will eat your food(AJ)
until you return to the ground,
    since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
    and to dust you will return.”(AK)

20 Adam[c] named his wife Eve,[d](AL) 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.(AM) 22 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us,(AN) knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life(AO) and eat, and live forever.” 23 So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden(AP) to work the ground(AQ) from which he had been taken. 24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side[e] of the Garden of Eden(AR) cherubim(AS) and a flaming sword(AT) flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.(AU)
