¹始祖被引诱而违主命

¹And the serpent hath been subtile above every beast of the field which Jehovah God hath made, and he saith unto the woman, `Is it true that God hath said, Ye do not eat of every tree of the garden?`

²女人对蛇说：“园中树上的果子，我们都可以吃；

²And the woman saith unto the serpent, `Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we do eat,

³只有园中那棵树上的果子，　神曾经说过：‘你们不可吃，也不可摸，免得你们死。’”

³and of the fruit of the tree which [is] in the midst of the garden God hath said, Ye do not eat of it, nor touch it, lest ye die.`

⁴蛇对女人说：“你们决不会死；

⁴And the serpent saith unto the woman, `Dying, ye do not die,

⁵因为　神知道你们吃那果子的时候，你们的眼睛就开了；你们会像　神一样，能知道善恶。”

⁵for God doth know that in the day of your eating of it — your eyes have been opened, and ye have been as God, knowing good and evil.`

⁶于是，女人见那棵树的果子好作食物，又悦人的眼目，而且讨人喜爱，能使人有智慧，就摘下果子来吃了；又给了和她在一起的丈夫，他也吃了。

⁶And the woman seeth that the tree [is] good for food, and that it [is] pleasant to the eyes, and the tree is desirable to make [one] wise, and she taketh of its fruit and eateth, and giveth also to her husband with her, and he doth eat;

⁷二人的眼睛就开了，才知道自己是赤身露体的。于是把无花果树的叶子编缝起来，为自己做裙子。

⁷and the eyes of them both are opened, and they know that they [are] naked, and they sew fig-leaves, and make to themselves girdles.

⁸天起凉风的时候，那人和他的妻子听见耶和华　神在园中行走的声音，就藏在园子的树林中，躲避耶和华　神的面。

⁸And they hear the sound of Jehovah God walking up and down in the garden at the breeze of the day, and the man and his wife hide themselves from the face of Jehovah God in the midst of the trees of the garden.

⁹耶和华　神呼唤那人，对他说：“你在哪里？”

⁹And Jehovah God calleth unto the man, and saith to him, `Where [art] thou?`

¹⁰他回答：“我在园中听见你的声音，就害怕；因为我赤身露体，就藏了起来。”

¹⁰and he saith, `Thy sound I have heard in the garden, and I am afraid, for I am naked, and I hide myself.`

¹¹耶和华　神说：“谁告诉你，你是赤身露体呢？难道你吃了我吩咐你不可吃的那树上的果子吗？”

¹¹And He saith, `Who hath declared to thee that thou [art] naked? of the tree of which I have commanded thee not to eat, hast thou eaten?`

¹²那人说：“你所赐给我、和我在一起的那女人，她把树上的果子给我，我就吃了。”

¹²and the man saith, `The woman whom Thou didst place with me — she hath given to me of the tree — and I do eat.`

¹³耶和华　神对女人说：“你作了什么事呢？”女人说：“那蛇欺哄我，我就吃了。”

¹³And Jehovah God saith to the woman, `What [is] this thou hast done?` and the woman saith, `The serpent hath caused me to forget — and I do eat.`

¹⁴惩罚与应许耶和华　神对蛇说：“因为你作了这事，就必在所有的牲畜和田野的活物中受咒诅；你要用肚子行走，一生都吃泥土。

¹⁴And Jehovah God saith unto the serpent, `Because thou hast done this, cursed [art] thou above all the cattle, and above every beast of the field: on thy belly dost thou go, and dust thou dost eat, all days of thy life;

¹⁵我要使你和女人彼此为仇，你的后裔和女人的后裔，也彼此为仇，女人的后裔要伤你的头，你要伤他的脚跟。”

¹⁵and enmity I put between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; he doth bruise thee — the head, and thou dost bruise him — the heel.`

¹⁶耶和华　神对女人说：“我要大大增加你怀胎的痛苦，你必在痛苦中生产儿女；你要恋慕你的丈夫，他却要管辖你。”

¹⁶Unto the woman He said, `Multiplying I multiply thy sorrow and thy conception, in sorrow dost thou bear children, and toward thy husband [is] thy desire, and he doth rule over thee.`

¹⁷耶和华　神又对亚当说：“因为你听从了你妻子的话，吃了我吩咐你不可吃的那树上的果子；地就必因你的缘故受咒诅；你必终生劳苦，才能从地里得吃的。

¹⁷And to the man He said, `Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and dost eat of the tree concerning which I have charged thee, saying, Thou dost not eat of it, cursed [is] the ground on thine account; in sorrow thou dost eat of it all days of thy life,

¹⁸地要给你长出荆棘和蒺藜来；你也要吃田间的蔬菜；

¹⁸and thorn and bramble it doth bring forth to thee, and thou hast eaten the herb of the field;

¹⁹你必汗流满面，才有饭吃，直到你归回地土，因为你是从地土取出来的；你既然是尘土，就要归回尘土。”

¹⁹by the sweat of thy face thou dost eat bread till thy return unto the ground, for out of it hast thou been taken, for dust thou [art], and unto dust thou turnest back.`

²⁰被逐出伊甸园亚当给他的妻子起名叫夏娃，因为她是众生之母。

²⁰And the man calleth his wife`s name Eve: for she hath been mother of all living.

²¹耶和华　神为亚当和他的妻子做了皮衣，给他们穿上。

²¹And Jehovah God doth make to the man and to his wife coats of skin, and doth clothe them.

²²耶和华　神说：“那人和我们中间的一个相似，能知善恶；现在恐怕他伸出手来，摘取生命树上的果子吃，就永远活着。”

²²And Jehovah God saith, `Lo, the man was as one of Us, as to the knowledge of good and evil; and now, lest he send forth his hand, and have taken also of the tree of life, and eaten, and lived to the age,` —

²³耶和华　神就把他赶出伊甸园，去耕种他自己也是从那里出来的地土。

²³Jehovah God sendeth him forth from the garden of Eden to serve the ground from which he hath been taken;

²⁴于是把亚当驱逐出去，又派基路伯在伊甸园的东边，拿着旋转发火焰的剑，把守到生命树去的路。

²⁴yea, he casteth out the man, and causeth to dwell at the east of the garden of Eden the cherubs and the flame of the sword which is turning itself round to guard the way of the tree of life.
