New Testament

Genesis 3:4-11 Amplified Bible (AMP)

4. But the serpent said to the woman, You shall not surely die, [II Cor. 11:3.]

5. For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing the difference between good and evil and blessing and calamity.

6. And when the woman saw that the tree was good (suitable, pleasant) for food and that it was delightful to look at, and a tree to be desired in order to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate; and she gave some also to her husband, and he ate.

7. Then the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves apronlike girdles.

8. And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.

9. But the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, Where are you?

10. He said, I heard the sound of You [walking] in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.

11. And He said, Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?
