     Caya ng̃a ang uica cay Adan nang Pang̃inoong Dios, ay inyo na aniya ang lahat na cacanin, at cumain din cayo ng̃ dilang maibig ninyo; cun di yaong iisa-isang caponô ang ibinabaual co sa inyo na houag ding canin ninyo ang bong̃a nion, at cun canin ng̃a ninyo yaon, ay cayo,y, mamamatay, at mapapacasamâ.

     Thus the word of the Lord God unto Adam, according to Him: “Yours are all things that may be eaten, and eat everything that you desire; save for that one and only tree, the fruit of which I forbid you to eat. For if indeed you eat of it, you shall be harmed and surely die.
