1Pahui loe Angraeng mah sak ih moi kasan boih thungah aling thaih koek ah oh. Anih mah nongpata khaeah, Takha thungah kaom thingkung hoiah kathai athaih to caa hoi boih hmah, tiah Sithaw mah thuih tangtang maw? tiah a naa.
1Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman: 'Yea, hath God said: Ye shall not eat of any tree of the garden?'
2Nongpata mah pahui khaeah, Takha thungah kaom thingkungnawk hoiah kathai athaih to ka caak hoi thaih;
2And the woman said unto the serpent: 'Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat;
3toe Sithaw mah, Takha um ah kaom thingkung pong ih athaih loe caa hoi hmah, sui doeh sui hoi hmah, na dueh hoi tih, tiah thuih, tiah a naa.
3but 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.'
4Pahui mah nongpata khaeah, Na dueh hoi tangtang mak ai, tiah a naa.
4And the serpent said unto the woman: 'Ye shall not surely die;
5Na caak hoi niah na mik to amtueng ueloe, sithawnawk baktih toengah, kasae kahoih na panoek hoi toeng tih, tiah Sithaw mah panoek pongah ni, to tiah ang thuih, tiah a naa.
5for God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as God, knowing good and evil.'
6Nongpata mah thingkung loe caak han kahoih thingkung ah a hnuk, mik hoiah khit moe, palunghahaih paek thaih thingkung ah oh pongah, thingthai to pakhrik moe, a caak, a sava han doeh a paek; anih mah doeh caak toeng.
6And 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 the fruit thereof, and did eat; and she gave also unto her husband with her, and he did eat.
7To naah nihnik ih mik to amtueng, nihnik loe bangkrai ah ni ka oh hoi, tiah panoekhaih to a tawnh hoi boeh; to naah thaiduet qamnawk to a huih hoi moe, kaeng ah angzaeng hoi.
7And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig-leaves together, and made themselves girdles.
8Ni amding ruehaih atue phak naah loe, takha thungah amkae Angraeng Sithaw ih atuen to a thaih hoi: Adam hoi anih ih zu mah Angraeng to takha thung ih thingkungnawk salakah anghawk hoi taak ving.
8And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden toward the cool of the day; and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.
9Angraeng Sithaw mah Adam to kawk, anih khaeah, Naa ah maw na oh? tiah a naa.
9And the LORD God called unto the man, and said unto him: 'Where art thou?'
10Anih mah, Takha thungah na lok to ka thaih, bangkrai ah ka oh pongah, zithaih ka tawnh moe, kang hawk ving boeh, tiah a naa.
10And he said: 'I heard Thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.'
11Anih mah, bangkrai ah na oh, tiah mi mah maw ang thuih? Caa hmah tiah kang thuih ih thingthai to na caak ving boeh tani? tiah a naa.
11And He said: 'Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?'
12To naah Adam mah, Kai han nang paek ih nongpata mah thingkung pong ih athaih to ang paek moe, ka caak, tiah a naa.
12And the man said: 'The woman whom Thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.'
13Angraeng Sithaw mah nongpata khaeah, Tipongah hae tiah na sak loe? tiah a naa. Nongpata mah, Pahui mah ang ling pongah, ka caak, tiah a naa.
13And the LORD God said unto the woman: 'What is this thou hast done?' And the woman said: 'The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.'
14To pongah Angraeng Sithaw mah pahui khaeah, Hae hmuen hae na sak boeh pongah, Moinawk boih, taw ih moisannawk boih pongah tangoenghaih na zok boeh; nang loe zok hoiah avak ueloe, na hing thung maiphu to na caa tih boeh.
14And the LORD God said unto the serpent: 'Because thou hast done this, cursed art thou from among all cattle, and from among all beasts of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.
15Nang hoi nongpata salak, na tii hoi nongpata ih atii salak misa ah ka suek han; anih mah na lu to ati tih, nang mah anih ih khok tahmawh to na patuk pae tih, tiah a naa.
15And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; they shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise their heel.'
16Nongpata khaeah, Zok na pomh naah nathaih kating ai kang pungsak han, kana pauephaih hoiah caa na sah tih; na sava koehhaih palung loe boeng mak ai, anih mah na uk tih, tiah a naa.
16Unto the woman He said: 'I will greatly multiply thy pain and thy travail; in pain thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.'
17Adam khaeah, Na zu ih lok to na tahngaih moe, Caa hmah, tiah kang thuih ih thingthai to na caak boeh pongah, nang pongah long loe tangoenghaih zok boeh; na hing thung patanghaih hoi toksak naah ni buh na caa tih boeh.
17And unto Adam He said: 'Because thou hast hearkened unto 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 toil shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life.
18Nang han soekhring congca kam prawksak han; lawk ih aannawk to na caa tih;
18Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the herb of the field.
19long hoiah nang zoh baktih toengah, long ah nam laem let ai karoek to, na mikhmai ah angsatui long naah ni buh na caa vop tih; maiphu ah na oh pongah, maiphu ah nam laem let tih, tiah a naa.
19In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken; for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.'
20Kahing kaminawk boih ih amno ah oh pongah, Adam mah a zu to Evi, tiah ahmin phui.
20And the man called his wife's name Eve; because she was the mother of all living.
21Angraeng Sithaw mah Adam hoi a zu hanah, moihin kahni to sak pae moe, angkhuksak.
21And the LORD God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins, and clothed them.
22Angraeng Sithaw mah, Khenah, kami loe kasae kahoih panoekhaih bang ah, aicae thung ih kami maeto baktiah oh toeng boeh; vaihi anih mah ban payangh ueloe, dungzan ah hing hanah thingthai to pakhrik pacoengah, caa moeng tih, tiah thuih.
22And the LORD God said: 'Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil; and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever.'
23To pongah angmah tacawthaih long ah toksak hanah, Angraeng Sithaw mah kami to Eden takha thung hoiah haek ving.
23Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
24Kami to haek pacoengah, hinghaih thingkung loklam to toep hanah, Cherubimnawk hoi ahnuk ahma angmet thaih hmai sumsen to Eden takha ni angyae bang ah a suek.
24So He drove out the man; and He placed at the east of the garden of Eden the cherubim, and the flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way to the tree of life.
