Genesis 3:17-19

17Then to Adam He said, “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat from it’; 1Cursed is the ground because of you; 2In 3toil you will eat of it All the days of your life.18Both thorns and thistles it shall grow for you; And you will eat the 4plants of the field;19By the sweat of your face You will eat bread, Till you 5return to the ground, Because 6from it you were taken; For you are dust, And to dust you shall return.”
