< Genesis 3 >

1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
Te vaengah BOEIPA Pathen loh a saii kohong mulhing boeih lakah rhul te tah thaai tih, huta taengah, “Pathen loh, ‘Dum kah thingkung te khat khaw na ca rhoi mahpawh,’ a ti tatak ngawn a?” a ti nah.
2 And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
Te dongah huta loh rhul taengah, “Dum thing thaih te ka caak rhoi thai.
3 But 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.
Tedae Pathen loh, 'Dum laklung kah thing thaih te ca rhoi boeh, taek rhoi boeh, te dongah na duek rhoi ve,’ a ti,” a ti nah.
4 And the serpent said to the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
Tedae rhul loh huta taengah, “Na duek rhoe na duek rhoi mahpawh.
5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat of it, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as God, knowing good and evil.
Te te na caak rhoi khohnin ah na mik khaw tueng vetih a thae a then ming nah khaw Pathen bangla na om rhoi ni tila Pathen loh a ming dongah ni,” a ti nah.
6 And 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 its fruit, and ate, and gave also to her husband with her; and he ate.
Huta long khaw caak ham koi thing then la, mik ham khaw hoehhamnah koi la a hmuh. Te vaengah a lungming la om ham thing te a nai. Te dongah a thaih te a loh tih a caak. Te phoeiah a taengkah a va te khaw a paek tih a caak.
7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made for themselves aprons.
Te phoeiah amih rhoi kah mik te bok tueng tih pumtling la a om rhoi te a ming rhoi. Te dongah thaibu hawn te a hui rhoi tih amamih rhoi ham hni la a saii rhoi.
8 And 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 among the trees of the garden.
BOEIPA Pathen kah ol tah te khohnin kah khohli neh dum khuiah a caeh te a yaak rhoi. Te dongah Adam neh a yuu tah BOEIPA Pathen mikhmuh kah, dum lamloh thingkung lakli ah thuh uh rhoi.
9 And the LORD God called to Adam, and said to him, Where art thou?
Tedae BOEIPA Pathen loh hlang tongpa te a khue tih a taengah, “Melam na om,” a ti nah.
10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
Tongpa loh, “Dum ah na ol ka yaak dae kai pumtling dongah ni ka rhih tih ka thuh,” a ti nah.
11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
Te dongah Boeipa loh, “Nang pumtling ni tila nang taengah ulae aka puen? Caak ham moenih tila nang kan uen thingkung te na caak nama?” a ti nah.
12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.
Te vaengah tongpa loh, “Huta te kai taengah nan paek coeng ta, anih loh thing te kai taengah m'paek dongah ni ka caak,” a ti nah.
13 And the LORD God said to the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I ate.
Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh huta te, “Hekah he metlam na saii,” a ti nah hatah huta loh, “Rhul loh kai n'rhaithi tih ka caak,” a ti nah.
14 And the LORD God said to 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:
Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh rhul taengah, “Hetla na saii dongah nang tah rhamsa boeih lakah khaw, kohong kah mulhing boeih lakah khaw, thaephoei thil la na om coeng. Na bung neh na colh vetih na hing tue khuiah laipi na caak ni.
15 And 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.
Nang laklo neh huta laklo ah khaw, nang kah tiingan laklo neh anih kah tiingan laklo ah khaw, thunkha thunhling ka khueh vetih anih loh na lu ham phop ni. Nang long khaw anih kah khomik te na tuk pah ni,” a ti nah.
16 To 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.
Pathen loh huta taengah, “Na thatlohnah neh na rhumpum te ka pungtai rhoela ka pungtai sak ni. Patangnah neh camoe na cun ni. Na lungdueknah te na va ham vetih anih loh nang soah n'taemrhai ni,” a ti nah.
17 And to Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened to 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;
Adam te khaw, “Na yuu ol te na hnatang nah. Te dongah, 'Ca boeh ka ti, ' tih nang kan uen lalah, thingkung lamkah te na caak. Te dongah diklai he nang kong ah thae ka phoei thil coeng. Na hing tue khuiah thatlohnah nen ni buh na caak eh.
18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
Hling neh lota khaw nang ham daih vetih kohong kah baelhing te na caak ni.
19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou shalt return to the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and to dust shalt thou return.
Na talung kah hlantui loh diklai la na bo sak daengah ni buh na caak eh. Laipi lamkah nang n'loh dongah laipi la na bal van ni,” a ti nah.
20 And Adam called his wife’s name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
Te phoeiah Adam yuu te aka hing boeih kah a manu la a om ham dongah a ming te Eve tila a sui.
21 For Adam also and for his wife the LORD God made coats of skins, and clothed them.
Te daengah BOEIPA Pathen loh Adam ham neh a yuu ham maehpho angkidung te a saii pah tih amih rhoi te a bai sak.
22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man hath become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he should put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
Te phoeiah BOEIPA Pathen loh, “Hlang he a then khaw a thae khaw ming ham mamih khuikah pakhat phek la ha om coeng he. Tahae ah a kut a yueng tih hingnah thing khaw a loh dongah kumhal hing ham ca lah ve,” a ti.
23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.
Te dongah BOEIPA Pathen loh anih te Eden dum lamkah a tueih. Te lamkah ni khohmuen aka tawn ham a loh.
24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubim, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way of the tree of life.
Hlang te khaw a haek coeng tih hingnah thingkung longpuei aka hung ham cherubim neh hmaitak cunghang aka tinghil te Eden dum kah khothoeng ah a khueh.
