Genesis 3:8-15

8They heard the sound of 1the Lord God walking in the garden in the 2cool of the day, 3and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9Then the Lord God called to the man, and said to him, “4Where are you?” 10He said, “5I heard the sound of You in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid myself.” 11And He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?” 126The man said, “The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me from the tree, and I ate.” 13Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” And the woman said, “7The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” 14The Lord God said to the serpent, “8Because you have done this, Cursed are you more than all cattle, And more than every beast of the field; On your belly you will go, And 9dust you will eat All the days of your life;15And I will put 10enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her seed; 11He shall 12bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel.”
