《The Edan》伊甸园

When God made the first man, he put him on a beautiful garden, the Garden of Edan. Here Adam lived in peace with all the animals.

God gave Adam eternal life. But Adam was lonely in the garden, so God made Eve.

When Adam was asleep one night,God took a rib from him and made Eve,the first woman.Adam was happy when he waked up the next morning and found Eve beside him.

God said to them,"here in the Garfen you have verything. but you cannot have one thing:you cannot eat the apples from the tree of knowledge."

上帝造出了第一个男人，名字叫亚当，把他放置在一个美丽花园中，也就是伊甸园，在这里，亚当与所有的动物和平相处。

上帝让他长生不老。但是，亚当在园子里很孤独，所以上帝又创造了夏娃。

当亚当睡觉的时候，上帝抽了他一条肋骨，做成了第一个女人夏娃。亚当第二天醒来，发现了夏娃，很高兴。

上帝对他俩说，在伊甸园里，你们什么都可以做，就是不能吃知识树上的苹果。

One day ,Satan came to the Garden. He changed into a snake and went to live in the tree of Knowledge.

When Eve came near the tree one day,the snake called her. He gave her an apple and said,"Take this apple and eat it.Don'tlisten to the God.Eat it."

After Eve took a bite,she took the apple to Adam.He was afraid,but Eve repeate again and again.

And said:It's good.Here,eat it.why not ?so he finally ate the apple.Before they ate the apple,Adam and Eve don't know that they were naked. But now they were ashamed and covered their bodies with leaves.

God was angry with them. He said,"leave the Garden.You cannot stay here."

When Adam and Eve left the garden,they had their first experience of pain and hard work in the cold hard world outside.

有一天，魔鬼撒旦来到了伊甸园，他变化成一条蛇，爬到了知识树上。

一天，当夏娃走近树的时候，那条蛇喊她，递给她一个苹果，说，“别听上帝胡嘞嘞，吃了它吧。”

夏娃咬了一口，转身把苹果递给了亚当。亚当很害怕，夏娃一再要他吃了苹果。

夏娃说，苹果很好吃，吃了它，为什么不吃呢？最后亚当也吃了苹果。在此之前，他俩不懂得自己都是裸体的。吃了苹果之后，他们有了知识，知道害羞了，用一些树叶子裹住了自己的身体。

上帝很生气，说，离开园子吧，你们不能呆在这里了。

当亚当和夏娃离开了伊甸园，他们第一次尝到了寒冷世界带给他们的苦痛和工作生活的艰辛。

以上是伊甸园的神话故事，和一切神话故事一样，叙述的是人们的臆想和希望，这个神话故事描述了人类的起源，自然也是充满荒唐和不合理的元素。

看来，伊甸园就跟传说中的天宫凌霄瑶池一样，生活美满富足，不愁吃喝穿戴，无忧无虑，无需艰辛的工作。人世间打工太苦了，尤其是在北上广深。

上帝有些不近人情，吃了一个苹果，就把人家从天堂撵到了这艰苦的人间。

芸芸众生，千秋万代，人们世世代代辛勤劳作，努力培育和抚养后代子孙，什么时候能够重回伊甸园，能够重返天宫凌霄瑶池。

惟有一个方法，就是用我们自己辛勤的劳动，创造一个美好富足的世界，把这个世界建设成为天上人间。

《国际歌》早就告诉我们：

从来就没有什么救世主，

也不靠神仙皇帝。

要创造人类的幸福，

全靠我们自己。
