创世记-Genesis第3章

乐园李老师

创3:1  耶和华神所造的，惟有蛇比田野一切的活物更狡猾。蛇对女人说：“神岂是真说，不许你们吃园中所有树上的果子吗？”
Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, "'Did God really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"

创3:3  惟有园当中那棵树上的果子，神曾说：‘你们不可吃，也不可摸，免得你们死。’”
but God did say, 'You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.'"

创3:4  蛇对女人说：“你们不一定死，
"You will not surely die," the serpent said to the woman.

创3:5  因为神知道，你们吃的日子眼睛就明亮了，你们便如神能知道善恶。”
"For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."

创3:6  于是女人见那棵树的果子好作食物，也悦人的眼目，且是可喜爱的，能使人有智慧，就摘下果子来吃了；又给她丈夫，她丈夫也吃了。
When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.

创3:9  耶和华神呼唤那人，对他说：“你在哪里？”
But the Lord God called to the man, "Where are you?"

创3:10 他说：“我在园中听见你的声音，我就害怕，因为我赤身露体，我便藏了。”
He answered, "I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid."

创3:11 耶和华说：“谁告诉你赤身露体呢？莫非你吃了我吩咐你不可吃的那树上的果子吗？”
And he said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?"

创3:12 那人说：“你所赐给我，与我同居的女人，她把那树上的果子给我，我就吃了。”
