Genesis 3:17-23
17And to Adam He said:
“Because you have listened to the voice of your wifeand have eaten from the treeof which I commanded you not to eat,cursed is the ground because of you;through toil you will eat of itall the days of your life.18Both thorns and thistles it will yield for you,and you will eat the plants of the field.19By the sweat of your browyou will eat your bread,until you return to the ground—because out of it were you taken.For dust you are,and to dust you shall return.”
20And Adam named his wife Eve,1 because she would be the mother of all the living.
21And the LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and He clothed them.
22Then the LORD God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil. And now, lest he reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever...”
23Therefore the LORD God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken.
Notes
- 1. Genesis 3:20 Eve sounds like the Hebrew for giving life or living. ↩
