¹¶ Na ko te nakahi he mohio rawa i nga kirehe katoa o te parae i hanga nei e Ihowa, e te Atua. Na ko tana meatanga ki te wahine, Koia, i mea ano te Atua, Kaua e kainga e korua nga hua o tetahi rakau o te kari?

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?`

²A ka mea te wahine ki te nakahi, E kai ano maua i nga hua o nga rakau o te kari:

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

³Ko nga hua ia o te rakau i waenganui o te kari, kua mea mai te Atua, Kaua korua e kai i tetahi o ona hua, kaua ano hoki e pa ki reira, kei mate korua.

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.`

⁴Na ko te meatanga a te nakahi ki te wahine, E kore korua e mate rawa:

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

⁵Erangi e mohio ana te Atua ko te ra e kai ai korua i tetahi o ona hua, katahi ka marama o korua kanohi, a ka rite korua ki te Atua, ka mohio ki te pai, ki te kino.

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¶ A, i te kitenga o te wahine he pai te rakau ra hei kai, he ahuareka ki te titiro atu, he rakau hoki e minaminatia hei whakamohio, na ka tango ia i etahi o ona hua, ka kai, ka hoatu hoki ki tana tahu i tona taha; a kai ana ia.

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;

⁷Na ka marama o raua kanohi tahi, ka mohio raua kei te tu tahanga raua; na ka tuia e raua etahi rau piki, meatia ana hei rapaki mo raua.

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.

⁸A ka rongo raua i te reo o Ihowa, o te Atua, e haereere ana i te kari i te hauhautanga o te ra: a ka piri a Arama raua ko tana wahine i te aroaro o Ihowa, o te Atua, ki roto ki nga rakau o te kari.

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¶ Na ka karanga a Ihowa, te Atua, ki a Arama, ka mea ki a ia, Kei hea koe?

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

¹⁰A ka mea ia, I rongo ahau ki tou reo i te kari, a wehi ana ahau, noku i tu tahanga; na piri ana ahau.

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

¹¹¶ Na ka mea ia, Na wai i mea ki a koe e tu tahanga ana koe? Kua kainga ranei e koe etahi o nga hua o te rakau i kiia atu ra e ahau ki a koe, Kaua ona hua e kainga?

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?`

¹²Na ka mea te tangata ra, Na te wahine i homai nei e koe hei hoa moku, nana i homai etahi o nga hua o te rakau ki ahau, a kainga ana e ahau.

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

¹³Na ka mea a Ihowa, te Atua, ki te wahine, He aha tenei kua meatia nei e koe? Ka mea te wahine, Na te nakahi ahau i maminga, a kai ana ahau.

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¶ Na ka mea a Ihowa, te Atua, ki te nakahi, Mo tenei mahi au nui atu te kanga mou i o nga kararehe katoa, i o nga kirehe katoa o te parae; ko tou kopu hei haere mou, ko te puehu hei kai mau i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe:

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;

¹⁵Ka whakatupuria hoki e ahau he pakanga ma korua ko te wahine, ma tou uri ratou ko tona uri; ka maru tou matenga i a ia, ka maru i a koe tona rekereke.

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¶ Ka mea ia ki te wahine, Ka whakanuia rawatia e ahau tou mamae, me tou haputanga; ka mamae koe ina whanau tamariki; ka hiahia koe ki to tahu, ko ia ano hoki hei rangatira mou.

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¶ A ka mea ia ki a Arama, Mo tou rongonga ki te reo o tau wahine, mo tau kainga hoki i te hua o te rakau i kiia atu e ahau ki a koe, i meatia atu ra, Kaua e kainga etahi o ona hua: ka oti te oneone te kanga mo tau mahi; ka kainga e koe ona hua i r unga i te mamae i nga ra katoa e ora ai koe;

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,

¹⁸He tataramoa ano hoki, he tumatakuru ana e whakatupu ake ai mau; a ka kai koe i te otaota o te parae;

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

¹⁹Ma te werawera o tou mata e kai ai koe i te taro, a hoki noa koe ki te oneone; i tangohia mai nei hoki koe i reira: he puehu hoki koe, a ka hoki ano ki te puehu.

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¶ A i huaina e Arama te ingoa o tana wahine ko Iwi; no te mea ko te whaea ia o nga mea ora katoa.

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

²¹¶ Na ka hanga e Ihowa, e te atua, etahi kakahu hiako mo Arama raua ko tana wahine, a whakakakahuria ana raua.

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

²²¶ Na ka mea a Ihowa, te Atua, Nana, kua rite nei te tangata ki tetahi o tatou, te mohio ki te pai, ki te kino: na kei totoro atu tona ringa aianei, kei tango i tetahi o nga hua o te rakau o te ora, kei kai, a ka ora tonu:

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,` —

²³Koia i tonoa atu ai ia e Ihowa, e te Atua, i te kari o Erene hei ngaki i te oneone i tangohia mai nei ia i reira.

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

²⁴Heoi peia ana e ia te tangata; a whakanohoia ana ki te taha ki te rawhiti o te kari o Erene tetahi Kerupima, me tetahi hoari mura, he mea piupiu tonu ki tetahi taha, ki tetahi taha, hei tiaki i te huarahi ki te rakau o te ora.

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.
