< Genesis 3 >

1 Now the serpent was more subtill then any beast of the fielde, which the Lord God had made: and he said to the woman, Yea, hath God in deede said, Ye shall not eate of euery tree of the garden?
Zmija bijaše lukavija od sve zvjeradi što je stvori Jahve, Bog. Ona reče ženi: “Zar vam je Bog rekao da ne smijete jesti ni s jednog drveta u vrtu?”
2 And the woman said vnto the serpent, We eate of the fruite of the trees of the garden,
Žena odgovori zmiji: “Plodove sa stabala u vrtu smijemo jesti.
3 But of the fruite of the tree which is in the middes of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eate of it, neither shall ye touche it, lest ye die.
Samo za plod stabla što je nasred vrta rekao je Bog: 'Da ga niste jeli! I ne dirajte u nj, da ne umrete!'”
4 Then the serpent said to the woman, Ye shall not die at all,
Nato će zmija ženi: “Ne, nećete umrijeti!
5 But God doeth knowe, that when ye shall eate thereof, your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and euill.
Nego, zna Bog: onog dana kad budete s njega jeli, otvorit će vam se oči, i vi ćete biti kao bogovi koji razlučuju dobro i zlo.”
6 So the woman (seeing that the tree was good for meate, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to get knowledge) tooke of the fruite thereof, and did eate, and gaue also to her husband with her, and he did eate.
Vidje žena da je stablo dobro za jelo, za oči zamamljivo, a za mudrost poželjno: ubere ploda njegova i pojede. Dade i svom mužu, koji bijaše s njom, pa je i on jeo.
7 Then the eyes of them both were opened, and they knewe that they were naked, and they sewed figge tree leaues together, and made them selues breeches.
Tada se obadvoma otvore oči i upoznaju da su goli. Spletu smokova lišća i naprave sebi pregače.
8 Afterward they heard the voyce of the Lord God walking in the garden in the coole of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselues from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
Uto čuju korak Jahve, Boga, koji je šetao vrtom za dnevnog povjetarca. I sakriju se - čovjek i njegova žena - pred Jahvom, Bogom, među stabla u vrtu.
9 But the Lord God called to the man, and said vnto him, Where art thou?
Jahve, Bog, zovne čovjeka: “Gdje si?” - reče mu.
10 Who saide, I heard thy voyce in the garden, and was afraide: because I was naked, therefore I hid my selfe.
On odgovori: “Čuo sam tvoj korak po vrtu; pobojah se jer sam go, pa se sakrih.”
11 And he saide, Who tolde thee, that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eate?
Nato mu reče: “Tko ti kaza da si go? Ti si, dakle, jeo sa stabla s kojega sam ti zabranio jesti?”
12 Then the man saide, The woman which thou gauest to be with me, she gaue me of the tree, and I did eate.
Čovjek odgovori: “Žena koju si stavio uza me - ona mi je dala sa stabla pa sam jeo.”
13 And the Lord God saide to the woman, Why hast thou done this? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eate.
Jahve, Bog, reče ženi: “Što si to učinila?” “Zmija me prevarila pa sam jela”, odgovori žena.
14 Then the Lord God said to the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed aboue all cattell, and aboue euery beast of the fielde: vpon thy belly shalt thou goe, and dust shalt thou eate all the dayes of thy life.
Nato Jahve, Bog, reče zmiji: “Kad si to učinila, prokleta bila među svim životinjama i svom zvjeradi divljom! Po trbuhu svome puzat ćeš i zemlju jesti sveg života svog!
15 I will also put enimitie betweene thee and the woman, and betweene thy seede and her seede. He shall breake thine head, and thou shalt bruise his heele.
Neprijateljstvo ja zamećem između tebe i žene, između roda tvojeg i roda njezina: on će ti glavu satirati, a ti ćeš mu vrebati petu.”
16 Vnto the woman he said, I will greatly increase thy sorowes, and thy conceptions. In sorowe shalt thou bring foorth children, and thy desire shalbe subiect to thine husband, and he shall rule ouer thee.
A ženi reče: “Trudnoći tvojoj muke ću umnožit, u mukama djecu ćeš rađati. Žudnja će te mužu tjerati, a on će gospodariti nad tobom.”
17 Also to Adam he said, Because thou hast obeyed the voyce of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, (whereof I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eate of it) cursed is the earth for thy sake: in sorowe shalt thou eate of it all the dayes of thy life.
A čovjeku reče: “Jer si poslušao glas svoje žene te jeo sa stabla s kojega sam ti zabranio jesti rekavši: S njega da nisi jeo! - evo: Zemlja neka je zbog tebe prokleta: s trudom ćeš se od nje hraniti svega vijeka svog!
18 Thornes also, and thistles shall it bring foorth to thee, and thou shalt eate the herbe of the fielde.
Rađat će ti trnjem i korovom, a hranit ćeš se poljskim raslinjem.
19 In the sweate of thy face shalt thou eate bread, till thou returne to the earth: for out of it wast thou taken, because thou art dust, and to dust shalt thou returne.
U znoju lica svoga kruh svoj ćeš jesti dokle se u zemlju ne vratiš: tÓa iz zemlje uzet si bio - prah si, u prah ćeš se i vratiti.”
20 (And the man called his wiues name Heuah, because she was the mother of all liuing)
Svojoj ženi čovjek nadjene ime Eva, jer je majka svima živima.
21 Vnto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coates of skinnes, and clothed them.
I načini Jahve, Bog, čovjeku i njegovoj ženi odjeću od krzna pa ih odjenu.
22 And the Lord God said, Beholde, the man is become as one of vs, to knowe good and euill. And nowe lest he put foorth his hand, and take also of ye tree of life and eate and liue for euer,
Zatim reče Bog: “Evo, čovjek postade kao jedan od nas - znajući dobro i zlo! Da ne bi sada pružio ruku, ubrao sa stabla života pa pojeo i živio navijeke!”
23 Therefore the Lord God sent him foorth from the garden of Eden, to till ye earth, whence he was taken.
Zato ga Jahve, Bog, istjera iz vrta edenskoga da obrađuje zemlju iz koje je i uzet.
24 Thus he cast out man, and at the East side of the garden of Eden he set the Cherubims, and the blade of a sworde shaken, to keepe the way of the tree of life.
Istjera, dakle, čovjeka i nastani ga istočno od vrta edenskog, pa postavi kerubine i plameni mač koji se svjetlucao - da straže nad stazom koja vodi k stablu života.
