Genesis 3:8-16 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

8. And they heard the sound of יהוה Elohim walking about in the garden in the cool of the day, and Aḏam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of יהוה Elohim among the trees of the garden.

9. And יהוה Elohim called unto Aḏam and said to him, “Where are you?”

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

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

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

13. And יהוה Elohim said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” And the woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”

14. And יהוה Elohim said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, you are cursed more than all livestock and more than every beast of the field. On your belly you are to go, and eat dust all the days of your life.

15. “And I put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her Seed. He shall crush your head, and you shall crush His heel.”

16. To the woman He said, “I greatly increase your sorrow and your conception – bring forth children in pain. And your desire is for your husband, and he does rule over you.”
