Genesi (تكوين) 3

SMITH VAN DYKE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 وكانت الحيّة أحيل جميع حيوانات البرية التي عملها الرب الاله. فقالت للمرأة أحقا قال الله لا تأكلا من كل شجر الجنة.	1 Now the serpent was more subtle than any of the beasts of the earth which the Lord God made. And he said to the woman: Why hath God commanded you, that you should not eat of every tree of paradise?
2 فقالت المرأة للحيّة من ثمر شجر الجنة نأكل.	2 And the woman answered him, saying: Of the fruit of the trees that are in paradise we do eat:
3 واما ثمر الشجرة التي في وسط الجنة فقال الله لا تأكلا منه ولا تمسّاه لئلا تموتا.	3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of paradise, God hath commanded us that we should not eat; and that we should not touch it, lest perhaps we die.
4 فقالت الحيّة للمرأة لن تموتا.	4 And the serpent said to the woman: No, you shall not die the death.
5 بل الله عالم انه يوم تأكلان منه تنفتح اعينكما وتكونان كالله عارفين الخير والشر.	5 For God doth know that in what day soever you shall eat thereof, your eyes shall be opened: and you shall be as Gods, knowing good and evil.
6 فرأت المرأة ان الشجرة جيدة للأكل وانها بهجة للعيون وان الشجرة شهيّة للنظر. فأخذت من ثمرها واكلت واعطت رجلها ايضا معها فأكل.	6 And the woman saw that the tree was good to eat, and fair to the eyes, and delightful to behold: and she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave to her husband who did eat.
7 فانفتحت اعينهما وعلما انهما عريانان. فخاطا اوراق تين وصنعا لانفسهما مآزر	7 And the eyes of them both were opened: and when they perceived themselves to be naked, they sewed together fig leaves, and made themselves aprons.
8 وسمعا صوت الرب الاله ماشيا في الجنة عند هبوب ريح النهار. فاختبأ آدم وامرأته من وجه الرب الاله في وسط شجر الجنة.	8 And when they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in paradise at the afternoon air, Adam and his wife hid themselves from the face of the Lord God, amidst the trees of paradise.
9 فنادى الرب الاله آدم وقال له اين انت.	9 And the Lord God called Adam, and said to him: Where art thou?
10 فقال سمعت صوتك في الجنة فخشيت لاني عريان فاختبأت.	10 And he said: I heard thy voice in paradise; and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.
11 فقال من اعلمك انك عريان. هل اكلت من الشجرة التي اوصيتك ان لا تأكل منها.	11 And he said to him: And who hath told thee that thou wast naked, but that thou hast eaten of the tree whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat?
12 فقال آدم المرأة التي جعلتها معي هي اعطتني من الشجرة فأكلت.	12 And Adam said: The woman, whom thou gavest me to be my companion, gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
13 فقال الرب الاله للمرأة ما هذا الذي فعلت. فقالت المرأة الحيّة غرّتني فاكلت.	13 And the Lord God said to the woman: Why hast thou done this? And she answered: The serpent deceived me, and I did eat.
14 فقال الرب الاله للحيّة لانك فعلت هذا ملعونة انت من جميع البهائم ومن جميع وحوش البرية. على بطنك تسعين وترابا تأكلين كل ايام حياتك.	14 And the Lord God said to the serpent: Because thou hast done this thing, thou art cursed among all cattle, and the beasts of the earth: upon thy breast shalt thou go, and earth shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.
15 واضع عداوة بينك وبين المرأة وبين نسلك ونسلها. هو يسحق راسك وانت تسحقين عقبه.	15 I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.
16 وقال للمرأة تكثيرا اكثر اتعاب حبلك. بالوجع تلدين اولادا. والى رجلك يكون اشتياقك وهو يسود عليك.	16 To the woman also he said: I will multiply thy sorrows, and thy conceptions: in sorrow shalt thou bring forth children, and thou shalt be under thy husband's power, and he shall have dominion over thee.
17 وقال لآدم لانك سمعت لقول امرأتك وأكلت من الشجرة التي اوصيتك قائلا لا تأكل منها ملعونة الارض بسببك. بالتعب تأكل منها كل ايام حياتك.	17 And to Adam he said: Because thou hast hearkened to the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldst not eat, cursed is the earth in thy work; with labour and toil shalt thou eat thereof all the days of thy life.
18 وشوكا وحسكا تنبت لك وتأكل عشب الحقل.	18 Thorns and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and thou eat the herbs of the earth.
19 بعرق وجهك تأكل خبزا حتى تعود الى الارض التي أخذت منها. لانك تراب والى تراب تعود	19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread till thou return to the earth, out of which thou wast taken: for dust thou art, and into dust thou shalt return.
20 ودعا آدم اسم امرأته حوّاء لانها ام كل حيّ.	20 And Adam called the name of his wife Eve: because she was the mother of all the living.
21 وصنع الرب الاله لآدم وامرأته اقمصة من جلد والبسهما	21 And the Lord God made for Adam and his wife, garments of skins, and clothed them.
22 وقال الرب الاله هوذا الانسان قد صار كواحد منا عارفا الخير والشر. والآن لعله يمد يده ويأخذ من شجرة الحياة ايضا ويأكل ويحيا الى الابد.	22 And he said: Behold Adam is become as one of us, knowing good and evil: now, therefore, lest perhaps he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever.
23 فاخرجه الرب الاله من جنة عدن ليعمل الارض التي أخذ منها.	23 And the Lord God sent him out of the paradise of pleasure, to till the earth from which he was taken.
24 فطرد الانسان واقام شرقي جنة عدن الكروبيم ولهيب سيف متقلب لحراسة طريق شجرة الحياة	24 And he cast out Adam; and placed before the paradise of pleasure Cherubims, and a flaming sword, turning every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
