## the garden of Eden ##
This can also be translated as "the garden in Eden."
## From every tree in the garden ##
"The fruit of every tree in the garden"
## you ##
This pronoun is singular. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])
## you may freely eat…you may not eat ##
In some languages it would be natural to first say what is not permitted and to then say what is permitted, as in the UDB.
## may freely eat ##
"may eat without restriction"
## the tree of the knowledge of good and evil ##
See how you translated this in [Genesis 2:9](./09.md).
## you may not eat ##
This can be translated as "I will not permit you to eat" (UDB) or "you must not eat."
