Genesis 3:1-7

1And the serpent wasH1961 more craftyH6175 than any animalH2416 of the fieldH7704 which Jehovah Elohim had madeH6213. And it saidH559 to the womanH802, Is it evenH637 so, that 1GodH430 has saidH559, Ye shall not eatH398 of every treeH6086 of the gardenH1588?

2And the womanH802 saidH559 to the serpent, We may eatH398 of the fruitH6529 of the treesH6086 of the gardenH1588;

3but of the fruitH6529 of the treeH6086 that is in the midstH8432 of the gardenH1588, 2GodH430 has saidH559, Ye shall not eatH398 of it, and ye shall not touchH5060 it, lestH6435 ye dieH4191.

4And the serpent saidH559 to the womanH802, Ye will not certainlyH4191 dieH4191;

5but 3GodH430 knowsH3045 that in the dayH3117 ye eatH398 of it, your eyesH5869 will beH1961 openedH6491, and ye will beH1961 as 4GodH430, knowingH3045 goodH2896 and evilH7451.

6And the womanH802 sawH7200 that the treeH6086 was goodH2896 for foodH3978, and that it was a pleasure for the eyesH5869, and the treeH6086 was to be desiredH2530 to giveH5414 intelligence; and she tookH3947 of its fruitH6529, and ateH398, and gaveH5414 alsoH1571 to her husbandH376 with her, and he ateH398.

7And the eyesH5869 of them both were openedH6491, and they knewH3045 that they were nakedH5903. And they sewedH8609 fig-leaves together, and madeH6213 themselves aprons.
