¹ Ali zmija beše lukava mimo sve zveri poljske, koje stvori Gospod Bog; pa reče ženi: Je li istina da je Bog kazao da ne jedete sa svakog drveta u vrtu?

² A žena reče zmiji: Mi jedemo rod sa svakog drveta u vrtu;

³ Samo rod s onog drveta usred vrta, kazao je Bog, ne jedite i ne dirajte u nj, da ne umrete.

⁴ A zmija reče ženi: Nećete vi umreti;

⁵ Nego zna Bog da će vam se u onaj dan kad okusite s njega otvoriti oči, pa ćete postati kao bogovi i znati šta je dobro šta li zlo.

⁶ I žena videći da je rod na drvetu dobar za jelo i da ga je milina gledati i da je drvo vrlo drago radi znanja, uzabra rod s njega i okusi, pa dade i mužu svom, te i on okusi.

⁷ Tada im se otvoriše oči, i videše da su goli; pa spletoše lišća smokovog i načiniše sebi pregače.

⁸ I začuše glas Gospoda Boga, koji iđaše po vrtu kad zahladi; i sakri se Adam i žena mu ispred Gospoda Boga među drveta u vrtu.

⁹ A Gospod Bog viknu Adama i reče mu: Gde si?

¹⁰ A on reče: Čuh glas Tvoj u vrtu, pa se poplaših, jer sam go, te se sakrih.

¹¹ A Bog reče: Ko ti kaza da si go? Da nisi jeo s onog drveta što sam ti zabranio da ne jedeš s njega?

¹² A Adam reče: Žena koju si udružio sa mnom, ona mi dade s drveta, te jedoh.

¹³ A Gospod Bog reče ženi: Zašto si to učinila? A žena odgovori: Zmija me prevari, te jedoh.

¹⁴ Tada reče Gospod Bog zmiji: Kad si to učinila, da si prokleta mimo svako živinče i mimo sve zveri poljske; na trbuhu da se vučeš i prah da jedeš do svog veka.

¹⁵ I još mećem neprijateljstvo između tebe i žene i između semena tvog i semena njenog; ono će ti na glavu stajati a ti ćeš ga u petu ujedati.

¹⁶ A ženi reče: Tebi ću mnoge muke zadati kad zatrudniš, s mukama ćeš decu rađati, i volja će tvoja stajati pod vlašću muža tvog, i on će ti biti gospodar.

¹⁷ Pa onda reče Adamu: Što si poslušao ženu i okusio s drveta s kog sam ti zabranio rekavši da ne jedeš s njega, zemlja da je prokleta s tebe, s mukom ćeš se od nje hraniti do svog veka;

¹⁸ Trnje i korov će ti rađati, a ti ćeš jesti zelje poljsko;

¹⁹ Sa znojem lica svog ješćeš hleb, dokle se ne vratiš u zemlju od koje si uzet; jer si prah, i u prah ćeš se vratiti.

²⁰ I Adam nadede ženi svojoj ime Jeva, zato što je ona mati svima živima.

²¹ I načini Gospod Bog Adamu i ženi njegovoj haljine od kože, i obuče ih u njih.

²² I reče Gospod Bog: Eto, čovek posta kao jedan od nas znajući šta je dobro šta li zlo; ali sada da ne pruži ruku svoju i uzbere i s drveta od života, i okusi, te do veka živi.

²³ I Gospod Bog izagna ga iz vrta edemskog da radi zemlju, od koje bi uzet;

²⁴ I izagnav čoveka postavi pred vrtom edemskim heruvima s plamenim mačem, koji se vijaše i tamo i amo, da čuva put ka drvetu od života.

¹ Now the serpent was more subtle than any animal of the field which Yahweh God had made. He said to the woman, "Has God really said, 'You shall not eat of any tree of the garden?'"

² The woman said to the serpent, "Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat,

³ but of the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of the garden, God has said, 'You shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.'"

⁴ The serpent said to the woman, "You won't surely die,

⁵ for God knows that in the day you eat it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."

⁶ When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit, and ate; and she gave some to her husband with her, and he ate.

⁷ The eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked. They sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

⁸ They heard the voice of Yahweh God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Yahweh God among the trees of the garden.

⁹ Yahweh God called to the man, and said to him, "Where are you?"

¹⁰ The man said, "I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself."

¹¹ God said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?"

¹² The man said, "The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate."

¹³ Yahweh God said to the woman, "What is this you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate."

¹⁴ Yahweh God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, you are cursed above all livestock, and above every animal of the field. On your belly you shall go, and you shall eat dust all the days of your life.

¹⁵ I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will bruise your head, and you will bruise his heel."

¹⁶ To the woman he said, "I will greatly multiply your pain in childbirth. In pain you will bring forth children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you."

¹⁷ To Adam he said, "Because you have listened to your wife's voice, and have eaten of the tree, of which I commanded you, saying, 'You shall not eat of it,' cursed is the ground for your sake. In toil you will eat of it all the days of your life.

¹⁸ Thorns also and thistles will it bring forth to you; and you will eat the herb of the field.

¹⁹ By the sweat of your face will you eat bread until you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken. For you are dust, and to dust you shall return."

²⁰ The man called his wife Eve, because she was the mother of all living.

²¹ Yahweh God made coats of skins for Adam and for his wife, and clothed them.

²² Yahweh God said, "Behold, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil. Now, lest he put forth his hand, and also take of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever..."

²³ Therefore Yahweh God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.

²⁴ So he drove out the man; and he placed Cherubs at the east of the garden of Eden, and the flame of a sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life.
