Genesis 3:10-17 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

10. And he said, “I heard You in the garden and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid.”

11. Then He asked, “Who told you that you were naked? Did you eat from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from? ”

12. Then the man replied, “The woman You gave to be with me — she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate.”

13. So the Lord God asked the woman, “What is this you have done? ”And the woman said, “It was the serpent. He deceived me, and I ate.”

14. Then the Lord God said to the serpent:Because you have done this,you are cursed more than any livestockand more than any wild animal.You will move on your bellyand eat dust all the days of your life.

15. I will put hostility between you and the woman,and between your seed and her seed.He will strike your head,and you will strike his heel.

16. He said to the woman:I will intensify your labor pains;you will bear children in anguish. Your desire will be for your husband,yet he will rule over you.

17. And He said to Adam, “Because you listened to your wife’s voice and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘Do not eat from it’:The ground is cursed because of you. You will eat from it by means of painful labor all the days of your life.
