¹Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

¹Kača je pa bila prekanjena, bolj nego katerabodi poljskih živali, ki jih je naredil GOSPOD Bog. Ona reče ženi: Ali vama je res rekel Bog, da ne jejta od vsakega drevesa s tega vrta?

²And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:

²In žena odgovori kači: Od sadu drevja s tega vrta uživava;

³But 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.

³ali za sad tistega drevesa, ki je sredi vrta, je rekel Bog: Ne jejta od njega, tudi se ga ne doteknita, da ne umreta.

⁴And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:

⁴Kača pa reče ženi: Nikakor ne umrjeta.

⁵For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

⁵Bog namreč ve, da tisti dan, ko bosta jedla od njega, se vama odpro oči, in bodeta kakor Bog ter bosta spoznala dobro in hudo.

⁶And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.

⁶In žena je videla, da je dobro tisto drevo za jed in da je veselje očem in da je zaželeti to drevo, ker dodeli spoznanje; vzela je torej od sadu njegovega ter jedla; in dala je tudi možu svojemu, ki je bil ž njo, in jedel je.

⁷And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

⁷Tedaj se odpro oči obema in spoznata, da sta naga; in sešijeta listje figovo in si naredita krila.

⁸And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.

⁸In začujeta glas GOSPODA Boga, da hodi po vrtu ob hladilnem vetriču dneva. In skrije se Adam in žena njegova pred obličjem GOSPODA Boga med vrtnim drevjem.

⁹And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?

⁹Pokliče pa GOSPOD Bog Adama in mu reče: Kje si?

¹⁰And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.

¹⁰In odgovori: Glas tvoj sem slišal na vrtu, zbal sem se pa, zato ker sem nag, in skril sem se.

¹¹And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?

¹¹Reče pa Bog: Kdo pa ti je povedal, da si nag? Ali si mar jedel od drevesa, za katero sem ti zapovedal, da ne jej od njega?

¹²And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.

¹²Adam pa odgovori: Žena, ki si mi jo dal, da bodi z menoj, ona mi je dala od drevesa, in jedel sem.

¹³And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.

¹³In reče GOSPOD Bog ženi: Kaj si to storila? Reče pa žena: Kača me je zapeljala, in jedla sem.

¹⁴And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

¹⁴In GOSPOD Bog reče kači: Ker si storila to, prokleta bodi pred vsemi živalmi in pred vsemi zvermi poljskimi; po trebuhu svojem hodi in prah jej vse dni svojega življenja.

¹⁵And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

¹⁵In sovraštvo stavim med tebe in ženo, in med seme tvoje in njeno seme: to ti stare glavo, ti pa mu stareš peto.

¹⁶Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.

¹⁶Ženi reče: Jako pomnožim bolečino tvojo in nosečnosti tvoje težave, v bolečini bodeš rodila otroke, in po možu tvojem bodi poželenje tvoje, in on ti gospoduj.

¹⁷And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;

¹⁷Adamu pa reče: Ker si poslušal žene svoje glas in si jedel od drevesa, za katero sem ti zapovedal, rekoč: Ne jej od njega – prokleta bodi zemlja zaradi tebe: s trudom se živi od nje vse dni svojega življenja;

¹⁸Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;

¹⁸trnje in osat naj ti poganja, ti pa jej zelenjavo poljsko.

¹⁹In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

¹⁹V potu obraza svojega uživaj kruh, dokler se ne povrneš v zemljo, ker si bil vzet iz nje; kajti prah si in v prah se povrneš.

²⁰And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.

²⁰In Adam je dal ime ženi svoji Eva [Hebrejski: hava, t. j. življenje.], zato ker je ona mati vseh živečih.

²¹Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them.

²¹In GOSPOD Bog naredi Adamu in ženi njegovi suknji iz kož, in ju je oblekel.

²²And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:

²²In veli GOSPOD Bog: Glej, človek je postal kako eden izmed nas, v kolikor ve, kaj je dobro in hudo. Sedaj pa, da ne iztegne roke svoje ter ne vzame tudi od drevesa življenja, in bi jedel in živel vekomaj –

²³Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.

²³ga odpravi torej GOSPOD Bog z vrta Edena, da naj obdeluje zemljo, iz katere je bil vzet.In je izgnal Adama in postavil ob vzhodni strani Edenskega vrta kerube in plamen meča švigajočega, da stražijo pot do drevesa življenja.

²⁴So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.

²⁴In je izgnal Adama in postavil ob vzhodni strani Edenskega vrta kerube in plamen meča švigajočega, da stražijo pot do drevesa življenja.
