¹ Ο δε οφις ητο το φρονιμωτερον παντων των ζωων του αγρου, τα οποια εκαμε Κυριος ο Θεος· και ειπεν ο οφις προς την γυναικα, Τω οντι ειπεν ο Θεος, Μη φαγητε απο παντος δενδρου του παραδεισου;

² Και ειπεν η γυνη προς τον οφιν, Απο του καρπου των δενδρων του παραδεισου δυναμεθα να φαγωμεν·

³ απο δε του καρπου του δενδρου, το οποιον ειναι εν μεσω του παραδεισου, ειπεν ο Θεος, Μη φαγητε απ' αυτου, μηδε εγγισητε αυτον, δια να μη αποθανητε.

⁴ Και ειπεν ο οφις προς την γυναικα, Δεν θελετε βεβαιως αποθανει

⁵ αλλ' εξευρει ο Θεος, οτι καθ' ην ημεραν φαγητε απ' αυτου, θελουσιν ανοιχθη οι οφθαλμοι σας, και θελετε εισθαι ως θεοι, γνωριζοντες το καλον και το κακον.

⁶ Και ειδεν η γυνη, οτι το δενδρον ητο καλον εις βρωσιν, και οτι ητο αρεστον εις τους οφθαλμους, και επιθυμητον το δενδρον ως διδον γνωσιν· και λαβουσα εκ του καρπου αυτου, εφαγε· και εδωκε και εις τον ανδρα αυτης μεθ' εαυτης, και αυτος εφαγε.

⁷ Και ηνοιχθησαν οι οφθαλμοι αμφοτερων, και εγνωρισαν οτι ησαν γυμνοι· και ραψαντες φυλλα συκης, εκαμον εις εαυτους περιζωματα.

⁸ Και ηκουσαν την φωνην Κυριου του Θεου, περιπατουντος εν τω παραδεισω προς το δειλινον· και εκρυφθησαν ο Αδαμ και η γυνη αυτου απο προσωπου Κυριου του Θεου, μεταξυ των δενδρων του παραδεισου.

⁹ Εκαλεσε δε Κυριος ο Θεος τον Αδαμ, και ειπε προς αυτον, Που εισαι;

¹⁰ Ο δε ειπε, Την φωνην σου ηκουσα εν τω παραδεισω, και εφοβηθην, διοτι ειμαι γυμνος· και εκρυφθην.

¹¹ Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Θεος, Τις εφανερωσεν εις σε οτι εισαι γυμνος; Μηπως εφαγες απο του δενδρου, απο του οποιου προσεταξα εις σε να μη φαγης;

¹² Και ειπεν ο Αδαμ, Η γυνη την οποιαν εδωκας να ηναι μετ' εμου, αυτη μοι εδωκεν απο του δενδρου, και εφαγον.

¹³ Και ειπε Κυριος ο Θεος προς την γυναικα, Τι ειναι τουτο το οποιον εκαμες; Και η γυνη ειπεν, Ο οφις με ηπατησε, και εφαγον.

¹⁴ Και ειπε Κυριος ο Θεος προς τον οφιν, Επειδη εκαμες τουτο, επικαταρατος να ησαι μεταξυ παντων των κτηνων, και παντων των ζωων του αγρου· επι της κοιλιας σου θελεις περιπατει, και χωμα θελεις τρωγει, πασας τας ημερας της ζωης σου·

¹⁵ και εχθραν θελω στησει αναμεσον σου και της γυναικος, και αναμεσον του σπερματος σου και του σπερματος αυτης· αυτο θελει σου συντριψει την κεφαλην, και συ θελεις κεντησει την πτερναν αυτου.

¹⁶ Προς δε την γυναικα ειπε, Θελω υπερπληθυνει τας λυπας σου και τους πονους της κυοφοριας σου· με λυπας θελεις γεννα τεκνα· και προς τον ανδρα σου θελει εισθαι η επιθυμια σου, και αυτος θελει σε εξουσιαζει.

¹⁷ Προς δε τον Αδαμ ειπεν, Επειδη υπηκουσας εις τον λογον της γυναικος σου, και εφαγες απο του δενδρου, απο του οποιου προσεταξα εις σε λεγων, Μη φαγης απ' αυτου, κατηραμενη να ηναι η γη εξ αιτιας σου· με λυπας θελεις τρωγει τους καρπους αυτης πασας τας ημερας της ζωης σου·

¹⁸ και ακανθας και τριβολους θελει βλαστανει εις σε· και θελεις τρωγει τον χορτον του αγρου·

¹⁹ εν τω ιδρωτι του προσωπου σου θελεις τρωγει τον αρτον σου, εωσου επιστρεψης εις την γην, εκ της οποιας εληφθης· επειδη γη εισαι, και εις γην θελεις επιστρεψει.

²⁰ Και εκαλεσεν ο Αδαμ το ονομα της γυναικος αυτου, Ευαν· διοτι αυτη ητο μητηρ παντων των ζωντων.

²¹ Και εκαμε Κυριος ο Θεος εις τον Αδαμ και εις την γυναικα αυτου χιτωνας δερματινους, και ενεδυσεν αυτους.

²² Και ειπε Κυριος ο Θεος, Ιδου, εγεινεν ο Αδαμ ως εις εξ ημων, εις το γινωσκειν το καλον και το κακον· και τωρα μηπως εκτεινη την χειρα αυτου, και λαβη και απο του ξυλου της ζωης, και φαγη, και ζηση αιωνιως·

²³ Οθεν Κυριος ο Θεος εξαπεστειλεν αυτον εκ του παραδεισου της Εδεμ, δια να εργαζηται την γην εκ της οποιας εληφθη.

²⁴ Και εξεδιωξε τον Αδαμ· και κατα ανατολας του παραδεισου της Εδεμ εθεσε τα Χερουβειμ, και την ρομφαιαν την φλογινην, την περιστρεφομενην, δια να φυλαττωσι την οδον του ξυλου της ζωης.

¹ It happened, when Jabin king of Hazor heard of it, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, to the king of Shimron, to the king of Achshaph,

² and to the kings who were on the north, in the hill country, in the Arabah south of Chinneroth, in the lowland, and in the heights of Dor on the west,

³ to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, and the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite in the hill country, and the Hivite under Hermon in the land of Mizpah.

⁴ They went out, they and all their armies with them, many people, even as the sand that is on the seashore in multitude, with very many horses and chariots.

⁵ All these kings met together; and they came and encamped together at the waters of Merom, to fight with Israel.

⁶ Yahweh said to Joshua, "Don't be afraid because of them; for tomorrow at this time, I will deliver them up all slain before Israel. You shall hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire."

⁷ So Joshua came, and all the people of war with him, against them by the waters of Merom suddenly, and fell on them.

⁸ Yahweh delivered them into the hand of Israel, and they struck them, and chased them to great Sidon, and to Misrephoth Maim, and to the valley of Mizpeh eastward. They struck them until they left them none remaining.

⁹ Joshua did to them as Yahweh told him. He hamstrung their horses and burnt their chariots with fire.

¹⁰ Joshua turned back at that time, and took Hazor, and struck its king with the sword: for Hazor used to be the head of all those kingdoms.

¹¹ They struck all the souls who were in it with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them. There was no one left who breathed. He burnt Hazor with fire.

¹² Joshua captured all the cities of those kings, with their kings, and he struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed them; as Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded.

¹³ But as for the cities that stood on their mounds, Israel burned none of them, except Hazor only. Joshua burned that.

¹⁴ The children of Israel took all the spoil of these cities, with the livestock, as spoils for themselves; but every man they struck with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them. They didn't leave any who breathed.

¹⁵ As Yahweh commanded Moses his servant, so Moses commanded Joshua. Joshua did so. He left nothing undone of all that Yahweh commanded Moses.

¹⁶ So Joshua captured all that land, the hill country, all the South, all the land of Goshen, the lowland, the Arabah, the hill country of Israel, and the lowland of the same;

¹⁷ from Mount Halak, that goes up to Seir, even to Baal Gad in the valley of Lebanon under Mount Hermon. He took all their kings, struck them, and put them to death.

¹⁸ Joshua made war a long time with all those kings.

¹⁹ There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, except the Hivites, the inhabitants of Gibeon. They took all in battle.

²⁰ For it was of Yahweh to harden their hearts, to come against Israel in battle, that he might utterly destroy them, that they might have no favor, but that he might destroy them, as Yahweh commanded Moses.

²¹ Joshua came at that time, and cut off the Anakim from the hill country, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the hill country of Judah, and from all the hill country of Israel: Joshua utterly destroyed them with their cities.

²² There were none of the Anakim left in the land of the children of Israel. Only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, did some remain.

²³ So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that Yahweh spoke to Moses; and Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. The land had rest from war.
