iGenesis 3:1-15

Ke kaloku inyoka yaye inobuqhophololo ngaphezu kwazo zonke izinto eziphilileyo zomhlaba, awazenzayo uYehova uThixo. Yathi kumfazi, Ewe, uthe uThixo, Musani ukuyidla yonke imithi yomyezo? Wathi umfazi enyoka, Iziqhamo zemithi yasendle sinokuzidla. Ke zona iziqhamo zomthi osemyezweni osesazulwini somyezo, wathi uThixo, Ningazidli, ningazichukumisi, hleze nife. Yathi inyoka kumfazi, Anisayi kufa. Kuba esazi uThixo ukuba, xa nithe nadla, oqabuka amehlo enu, nibe njengothixo, nazi okulungileyo nokubi. Wabona umfazi ukuba umthi ulungele ukudliwa, uyawakholisa amehlo, nokuba umthi onqwenelekayo ebubulumko, wathabatha isiqhamo sawo, wadla, wanika indoda yakhe; wadla. Aqabuka amehlo abo bobabini, baqonda ukuba kutheni bebodwa; bathunga amagqabi omkhiwane, benza ezabo iingubo. Baliva izwi likaYehova uThixo, ekuhambeni kwakhe emyezweni, kwakuba pholileyo; bazímela uAdam nomkakhe ebusweni bukaYehova uThixo, phakathi kwemithi yomyezo. uYehova uThixo wambiza umntu, wathi kuye, Uphi na? Wathi uAtam, Ndive isandi sakho endle, ndasuka ndoyika, ngokuba ndingakholosanga; ndazimela. Wathi, Uxelelwe ngubani na, ukuba uwedwa? Udlile na kuwo umthi, endakuwisela umthetho ngawo, ukuba ungadli kuwo? Wathi uAdam, Umfazi owandinikayo ukuba abe nam, nguye ondinike umthi, ndadla ke. Wathi uYehova uThixo kumfazi, Yintoni na le uyenzileyo? Wathi umfazi: “Inyoka indikhohlisile, ndadla. Wathi uYehova uThixo kwinyoka, Ngokuba uyenzile le nto, uqalekisiwe wena ngaphezu kweenkomo zonke, naphezu kwazo zonke izinto eziphilileyo zehlabathi; uya kuhamba ngomlomo wakho, udle uthuli yonke imihla yobomi bakho. Ndiya kumisa ubutshaba phakathi kwakho nomfazi, naphakathi kwembewu yakho nembewu yakhe; iya kukunqumla intloko, kwaye uya kuyiluma isithende.
