New Testament

Genesis 3:12-16 English Standard Version (ESV)

12. The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate.”

13. Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this that you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”

14. The Lord God said to the serpent,“Because you have done this,cursed are you above all livestockand above all beasts of the field;on your belly you shall go,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 her offspring; he shall bruise your head,and you shall bruise his heel.”

16. To the woman he said,“I will surely multiply your pain in childbearing; in pain you shall bring forth children. Your desire shall be for your husband,and he shall rule over you.”
