《聖經中的父親》Day 01
人類之父的影響
1 耶和華上帝所造的,惟有蛇比田野一切的活物更狡猾。蛇對女人說:「上帝豈是真說不許你們吃園中所有樹上的果子嗎?」2 女人對蛇說:「園中樹上的果子,我們可以吃,3 惟有園當中那棵樹上的果子,上帝曾說:『你們不可吃,也不可摸,免得你們死。』」4 蛇對女人說:「你們不一定死;5 因為上帝知道,你們吃的日子眼睛就明亮了,你們便如上帝能知道善惡。」6 於是女人見那棵樹的果子好作食物,也悅人的眼目,且是可喜愛的,能使人有智慧,就摘下果子來吃了,又給她丈夫,她丈夫也吃了。7 他們二人的眼睛就明亮了,才知道自己是赤身露體,便拿無花果樹的葉子為自己編做裙子。 8 天起了涼風,耶和華上帝在園中行走。那人和他妻子聽見上帝的聲音,就藏在園裏的樹木中,躲避耶和華上帝的面。9 耶和華上帝呼喚那人,對他說:「你在哪裏?」10 他說:「我在園中聽見祢的聲音,我就害怕;因為我赤身露體,我便藏了。」11 耶和華說:「誰告訴你赤身露體呢?莫非你吃了我吩咐你不可吃的那樹上的果子嗎?」12 那人說:「祢所賜給我、與我同居的女人,她把那樹上的果子給我,我就吃了。」13 耶和華上帝對女人說:「你做的是甚麼事呢?」女人說:「那蛇引誘我,我就吃了。」(創世記三1-13)
1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’ ” 4“You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. 5“For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” 6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves. 8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?” 10 He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.” 11 And He 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 You put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.” 13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” (Genesis 3:1-13)
