Genesis 3
1 The serpent was more cunning than any of the other wild animals that the Lord God had made. He asked Eve, “Did God really say that you can't eat fruit from every tree in the garden?”
La serpiente era más astuta que cualquier otro animal del campo que había hecho Yahvé Dios. Le dijo a la mujer: “¿De verdad ha dicho Dios: “No comerás de ningún árbol del jardín”?”
2 Eve replied to the serpent, “We can eat from the trees in the garden, but not the fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden.
La mujer dijo a la serpiente: “Podemos comer del fruto de los árboles del jardín,
3 God told us, ‘You mustn't eat from that tree, or even touch it, otherwise you'll die.’”
pero no del fruto del árbol que está en medio del jardín. Dios ha dicho: ‘No comerás de él. No lo tocarás, para que no mueras”.
4 “You certainly won't die,” the serpent told Eve.
La serpiente dijo a la mujer: “No morirás realmente,
5 “It's because God knows that as soon as you eat it, you'll see things differently, and you'll be like God, knowing both what is good and what is evil.”
porque Dios sabe que el día que lo comas se te abrirán los ojos y serás como Dios, conociendo el bien y el mal.”
6 Eve saw that the fruit of the tree appeared good to eat. It looked very attractive. She really wanted it so she could become wise. So she took some of its fruit and ate it, and she gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it too.
Cuando la mujer vio que el árbol era bueno para comer y que era un deleite para los ojos, y que el árbol era deseable para hacerse sabio, tomó parte de su fruto y comió. Luego le dio un poco a su marido, que también comió.
7 Immediately they saw everything differently and realized they were naked. So they sewed fig leaves together to cover themselves up.
Se les abrieron los ojos y ambos se dieron cuenta de que estaban desnudos. Cosieron hojas de higuera y se cubrieron.
8 Later they heard the Lord walking in the garden in the evening when the breeze was blowing. Adam and Eve went and hid out of sight of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
Oyeron la voz de Yahvé Dios que se paseaba por el jardín en el fresco del día, y el hombre y su mujer se escondieron de la presencia de Yahvé Dios entre los árboles del jardín.
9 The Lord God called out to Adam, “Where are you?”
Yahvé Dios llamó al hombre y le dijo: “¿Dónde estás?”.
10 “I heard you walking in the garden and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid,” he replied.
El hombre dijo: “Oí tu voz en el jardín, y tuve miedo, porque estaba desnudo; así que me escondí”.
11 “Who told you that you were naked?” asked the Lord God. “Did you eat fruit from the tree I ordered you not to?”
Dios dijo: “¿Quién te dijo que estabas desnudo? ¿Has comido del árbol del que te ordené no comer?”
12 “It was the woman you gave me who gave me the fruit from the tree, and I ate it,” Adam replied.
El hombre dijo: “La mujer que me diste para estar conmigo, me dio fruto del árbol y lo comí”.
13 The Lord God asked Eve, “Why have you done this?” “The serpent tricked me, and so I ate it,” she replied.
Yahvé Dios dijo a la mujer: “¿Qué has hecho?” La mujer dijo: “La serpiente me engañó y comí”.
14 Then the Lord God told the serpent, “Because of what you've done, you are cursed more than any of the other animals. You will slide along on your belly and eat dust as long as you live.
Yahvé Dios dijo a la serpiente, “Porque has hecho esto, estás maldito por encima de todo el ganado, y por encima de todo animal del campo. Irás sobre tu vientre y comerás polvo todos los días de tu vida.
15 I will make sure you and your children, and the woman and her children, are enemies. One of her children will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.”
Pondré hostilidad entre tú y la mujer, y entre tu descendencia y la de ella. Te va a magullar la cabeza, y le magullarás el talón”.
16 He told Eve, “I will make pregnancy much more difficult, and giving birth will be very painful. However, you will still desire your husband, but he will have control over you.”
A la mujer le dijo, “Multiplicaré en gran medida tus dolores de parto. Tendrás hijos con dolor. Tu deseo será para tu marido, y te gobernará”.
17 He told Adam, “Because you did what your wife told you, and ate fruit from the tree after I ordered you, ‘Don't eat fruit from this tree,’ the ground is now cursed because of you. You will have to work painfully hard to grow food from it throughout your whole life.
A Adán le dijo, “Porque has escuchado la voz de tu mujer, y han comido del árbol, sobre lo que te ordené, diciendo: ‘No comerás de él’. la tierra está maldita por tu causa. Comerás de él con mucho trabajo todos los días de tu vida.
18 It will grow thorns and thistles for you, and you will have to eat wild plants.
Te dará espinas y cardos; y comerás la hierba del campo.
19 You will have to sweat to grow enough food to eat until you die and return to the ground. For you were made from dust and you will return to dust.”
Comerás el pan con el sudor de tu rostro hasta que vuelvas a la tierra, ya que fuiste sacado de ella. Porque tú eres polvo, y volverás al polvo”.
20 Adam named his wife Eve, because she was to be the mother of all human beings.
El hombre llamó a su mujer Eva, porque ella sería la madre de todos los vivientes.
21 The Lord God made Adam and Eve clothes from animal skins and dressed them.
Yahvé Dios hizo vestidos de pieles de animales para Adán y para su mujer, y los vistió.
22 Then the Lord God observed, “Look, the human beings have become like one of us, knowing both what is good and what is evil. Now if they take the fruit from the tree of life and eat it, then they'll live forever!”
Yahvé Dios dijo: “He aquí que el hombre ha llegado a ser como uno de nosotros, conociendo el bien y el mal. Ahora bien, para que no extienda su mano y tome también del árbol de la vida, y coma, y viva para siempre —”
23 So the Lord God expelled them from the Garden of Eden. He sent Adam to cultivate the ground from which he'd been made.
Por eso Yahvé Dios lo envió fuera del jardín de Edén, para que labrara la tierra de la que fue tomado.
24 After he drove them out, the Lord God placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden angels and a sword that flashed in every direction. They were to prevent access to the tree of life.
Y expulsó al hombre; y puso querubines al oriente del jardín del Edén, y una espada flamígera que se volvía hacia todos lados, para guardar el camino del árbol de la vida.
