Português e inglês lado a lado
1E naquela mesma hora foram abertos os meus olhos, e logo conheci que estava desprovida da justiça com que me havia vestido; e chorei, e disse-lhe: Por que fizeste isto comigo, despojando-me da glória de que estava vestida? Mas chorei também por causa do juramento que havia jurado. Ele, porém, desceu da árvore e desapareceu.
1And in that very hour my eyes were opened, and forthwith I knew that I was bare of the righteousness with which I had been clothed (upon), and I wept and said to him: "Why hast thou done this to me in that thou hast deprived me of the glory with which I was clothed" But I wept also about the oath, which I had sworn. But he descended from the tree and vanished.
2E comecei a buscar, na minha nudez, na minha porção, folhas para cobrir a minha vergonha, mas não achei nenhuma; pois, tão logo comi, as folhas caíram de todas as árvores na minha porção, exceto da figueira somente. Mas tomei folhas dela e fiz para mim um cinto; e fora exatamente da mesma planta da qual eu havia comido.
2And I began to seek, in my nakedness, in my part for leaves to hide my shame, but I found none, for, as soon as I had eaten, the leaves showered down from all the trees in my part, except the fig tree only. But I took leaves from it and made for myself a girdle and it was from the very same plant of which I had eaten.
