¹A had bol najchytrejší zo všetkých zvierat poľných, ktoré učinil Hospodin Bôh. A povedal žene: Či naozaj riekol Bôh: Nebudete jesť z niktorého stromu rajského?

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?`

²Na to povedala žena hadovi: Z ovocia rajských stromov jeme.

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

³Ale o ovocí stromu, ktorý je prostred raja, riekol Bôh: Nebudete jesť z neho ani sa ho nedotknete, aby ste nezomreli!

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.`

⁴A had povedal žene: Istotne nezomriete.

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

⁵Ale Bôh vie, že toho dňa, ktorého by ste jedli z neho, otvoria sa vaše oči, a budete jako bohovia, ktorí vedia, čo je dobré i zlé.

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.`

⁶A žena videla, že je strom dobrý na jedenie z neho, že je žiadosťou očiam a že je to prežiadúcny strom, aby urobil človeka rozumným, tak tedy vzala z jeho ovocia a jedla a dala spolu i svojmu mužovi, a jedol.

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;

⁷Vtedy sa otvorily oči obidvoch, a poznali, že sú nahí. A naviažuc fíkového lístia spravili si zástery.

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.

⁸Potom počuli hlas Hospodina Boha, chodiaceho po raji, k dennému vetru večernému. Ale Adam i jeho žena sa skryli pred tvárou Hospodina Boha v prostredku medzi stromami raja.

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.

⁹A Hospodin Bôh volal na Adama a riekol mu: Kde si?

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

¹⁰A povedal: Počul som tvoj hlas v raji, ale som sa bál, lebo som nahý a preto som sa skryl.

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

¹¹A Bôh mu riekol: Kto ti oznámil, že si nahý?! Či si azda jedol zo stromu, o ktorom som ti prikázal, aby si nejedol z neho?

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?`

¹²A Adam povedal: Žena, ktorú si dal, aby bola so mnou, tá mi dala zo stromu, a jedol som.

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

¹³A Hospodin Bôh riekol žene: Čo si to urobila?! A žena povedala: Had ma zviedol a jedla som.

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.`

¹⁴A Hospodin Bôh riekol hadovi: Že si to urobil, zlorečený budeš nad každé hovädo a nad každé zviera poľné; na svojom bruchu sa budeš plaziť a budeš žrať prach po všetky dni svojho života.

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;

¹⁵A položím nepriateľstvo medzi tebou a medzi ženou, medzi tvojím semenom a medzi jej semenom; ono ti rozdrtí hlavu a ty mu rozdrtíš pätu.

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.`

¹⁶Potom ešte povedal žene: Veľmi rozmnožím tvoju bolesť a tvoje tehotenstvo; v bolesti budeš rodiť deti, a tvoja túžba sa ponesie k tvojmu mužovi, a on bude panovať nad tebou.

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.`

¹⁷A Adamovi povedal: Preto, že si poslúchol hlas svojej ženy a jedol si zo stromu, o ktorom som ti prikázal a riekol: Nebudeš jesť z neho, zlorečená bude zem pre teba; s bolesťou budeš z nej jesť po všetky dni svojho života.

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,

¹⁸Tŕnie a bodľač ti bude rodiť a budeš jesť poľnú bylinu.

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

¹⁹V pote svojej tvári budeš jesť chlieb, až dokiaľ sa nenavrátiš do zeme, lebo z nej si vzatý, pretože si prach a do prachu sa navrátiš.

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.`

²⁰A Adam nazval meno svojej ženy Eva, pretože ona bola matkou všetkých živých.

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

²¹A Hospodin Bôh učinil Adamovi a jeho žene odev z kože a odial ich.

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

²²Vtedy povedal Hospodin Bôh: Hľa, človek sa stal ako jeden z nás, aby vedel dobré i zlé. A tak teraz, aby nevystrel svojej ruky a nevzal ešte aj zo stromu života a nejedol, a žil by potom na veky, vyžeňme ho!

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,` —

²³A Hospodin Bôh ho poslal preč z raja, zo zahrady Édena, aby obrábal zem, z ktorej bol vzatý.

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

²⁴A vyhnal človeka a osadil cherubínov od východnej strany zahrady Édena, a to s plamenným mečom plápolajúcim strážiť cestu ku stromu života.

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.
