3:6 When 1 the woman saw that the tree produced fruit that was good for food, 2 was attractive 3 to the eye, and was desirable for making one wise, 4 she took some of its fruit and ate it. 5 She also gave some of it to her husband who was with her, and he ate it. 6 3:7 Then the eyes of both of them opened, and they knew they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
3:8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God moving about 7 in the orchard at the breezy time 8 of the day, and they hid 9 from the Lord God among the trees of the orchard. 3:9 But the Lord God called to 10 the man and said to him, “Where are you?” 11 3:10 The man replied, 12 “I heard you moving about 13 in the orchard, and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid.” 3:11 And the Lord God 14 said, “Who told you that you were naked? 15 Did you eat from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?” 16 3:12 The man said, “The woman whom you gave me, she gave 17 me some fruit 18 from the tree and I ate it.” 3:13 So the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this 19 you have done?” And the woman replied, “The serpent 20 tricked 21 me, and I ate.”
3:14 The Lord God said to the serpent, 22
“Because you have done this,
cursed 23 are you above all the wild beasts
and all the living creatures of the field!
On your belly you will crawl 24
and dust you will eat 25 all the days of your life.
3:15 And I will put hostility 26 between you and the woman
and between your offspring and her offspring; 27
her offspring will attack 28 your head,
and 29 you 30 will attack her offspring’s heel.” 31
3:16 To the woman he said,
“I will greatly increase 32 your labor pains; 33
with pain you will give birth to children.
You will want to control your husband, 34
but he will dominate 35 you.”
3:17 But to Adam 36 he said,
“Because you obeyed 37 your wife
and ate from the tree about which I commanded you,
‘You must not eat from it,’
cursed is the ground 38 thanks to you; 39
in painful toil you will eat 40 of it all the days of your life.
3:18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you,
but you will eat the grain 41 of the field.
3:19 By the sweat of your brow 42 you will eat food
until you return to the ground, 43
for out of it you were taken;
for you are dust, and to dust you will return.” 44
3:20 The man 45 named his wife Eve, 46 because 47 she was the mother of all the living. 48 3:21 The Lord God made garments from skin 49 for Adam and his wife, and clothed them. 3:22 And the Lord God said, “Now 50 that the man has become like one of us, 51 knowing 52 good and evil, he must not be allowed 53 to stretch out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.” 3:23 So the Lord God expelled him 54 from the orchard in Eden to cultivate the ground from which he had been taken. 3:24 When he drove 55 the man out, he placed on the eastern side 56 of the orchard in Eden angelic sentries 57 who used the flame of a whirling sword 58 to guard the way to the tree of life.
