6. The woman saw that the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eyes, and the tree was desirable for gaining wisdom. So she took some of its fruit and ate it; and she also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.
7. Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made loincloths for themselves.
8. When they heard the sound of the Lord God walking about in the garden at the breezy time of the day, the man and his wife hid themselves from the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
9. The Lord God then called to the man and asked him: Where are you?
10. He answered, “I heard you in the garden; but I was afraid, because I was naked, so I hid.”
11. Then God asked: Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I had forbidden you to eat?
12. The man replied, “The woman whom you put here with me—she gave me fruit from the tree, so I ate it.”
13. The Lord God then asked the woman: What is this you have done? The woman answered, “The snake tricked me, so I ate it.”
14. Then the Lord God said to the snake:Because you have done this,cursed are youamong all the animals, tame or wild;On your belly you shall crawl,and dust you shall eatall the days of your life.
15. I will put enmity between you and the woman,and between your offspring and hers;They will strike at your head,while you strike at their heel.
16. To the woman he said:I will intensify your toil in childbearing;in pain you shall bring forth children.Yet your urge shall be for your husband,and he shall rule over you.
17. To the man he said: Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, You shall not eat from it,Cursed is the ground because of you!In toil you shall eat its yieldall the days of your life.
