UGenesise 3
Isono sika-Adamu no-Eva nokulahlwa kwabo
1Inyoka yayinobuqili kunazo zonke izilwane zasendle abezenzile uJehova uNkulunkulu. Yasisithi kowesifazana: Yebo, uNkulunkulu wathi: Lingadli kuyo yonke imithi yensimu?
2Owesifazana wasesithi enyokeni: Singazidla izithelo zemithi yensimu.
3Kepha isithelo somuthi ophakathi nensimu uNkulunkulu wathi: Ningasidli, ningathinti, funa nife.
4Inyoka yathi kowesifazane: “Aniyikufa nokufa.”
5Ngoba uNkulunkulu uyazi ukuthi mhla lisidla, amehlo enu azavuleka, njalo lizakuba njengonkulunkulu, likwazi okuhle lokubi.
6Owesifazane ebona ukuthi umuthi wawulungele ukudliwa, nokuthi uyabukeka emehlweni, nomuthi onxanelekayo ukuhlakaniphisa, wathatha isithelo sawo, wadla, wanika indoda yakhe; wadla.
7Ayesevuleka amehlo abo bobabili, babona ukuthi bahamba ze; basebethunga amaqabunga omkhiwane, bazenzela izigqoko.
8Base bezwa izwi likaJehova uNkulunkulu ehamba ensimini ngokuphola kwelanga; u-Adamu nomkakhe bacasha ebusweni bukaJehova uNkulunkulu phakathi kwemithi yensimu.
9INkosi uNkulunkulu yasibiza indoda, yathi kuye: Ungaphi?
10U-Adamu wathi: “Ngizwe izwi lakho ensimini, ngesaba, ngokuba nginqunu; ngase ngicasha.
11Wathi: “Ngubani okutshele ukuthi uhamba ze na?” Udlile yini emthini engakuyala ngawo ukuba ungadli kuwo na?
12Wayesethi umuntu: “Owesifazane onginike yena ukuba abe nami, nguyena owangipha emthini, ngadla;
13INkosi uNkulunkulu yathi kowesifazane: “Kuyini lokhu okwenzileyo?” Wathi owesifazane: Inyoka ingikhohlisile, ngadla.
14UJehova uNkulunkulu wathi enyokeni: “Ngokuba usukwenzile lokho, uqalekisiwe ngaphezu kwezinkomo zonke naphezu kwazo zonke izilwane zasendle; uyakuhamba emlonyeni wakho, udle uthuli zonke izinsuku zokuhamba kwakho.
15Ngiyakubeka ubutha phakathi kwakho nowesifazane, naphakathi kwenzalo yakho nenzalo yakhe; yona iyakuchoboza ikhanda lakho, wena uyakulimaza isithende sayo.
16Wathi kowesifazane: “Ngiyakwandisa kakhulu usizi lwakho nokukhulelwa kwakho; ngosizi uyakuzala abantwana; ukufisa kwakho kuyakuba sendodeni yakho, yona izokubusa.
17Wathi ku-Adamu: “Ngokuba ulalele izwi lomkakho, wadla kuwo umuthi engakuyala ngawo, ngathi: Ungadli kuwo; uqalekisiwe umhlaba; uyakudla kuwo ngosizi zonke izinsuku zokuhamba kwakho;
18Iyakukuvezela ameva namakhakhasi; uyakudla izitshalo zasendle;
19Ngesithukuthuku sobuso bakho uyakudla isinkwa uze ubuyele emhlabathini; ngoba nathathwa kuwo; ngokuba uluthuli, uyakubuyela othulini.
20U-Adamu waqamba umkakhe ngokuthi u-Eva; ngoba wayengunina wabo bonke abaphilayo.
21UJehova uNkulunkulu wenzela u-Adamu nomkakhe izindwangu zesikhumba, wabembathisa.
22INkosi uNkulunkulu yathi: Bheka, umuntu usenjengomunye wethu ukwazi okuhle nokubi; futhi manje njengoba engaseluli isandla sakhe futhi futhi athathe emthini wokuphila adle futhi aphile kuze kube phakade.
23Ngakho uJehova uNkulunkulu wamkhipha ensimini yase-Edene ukuba alime umhlabathi athathwe kuwo.
24Waseyixotsha indoda; wabeka amakherubi ngasempumalanga kwensimu yase-Edene, nenkemba yelangabi ephenduka inhlangothi zonke ukuba ilinde indlela yomuthi wokuphila.
