Genesis 3:9-18 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

9. The Lord God called to the man, and said to him, “Where are you?”

10. The man said, “I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.”

11. God said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”

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

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

14. The Lord God said to the serpent,“Because you have done this,you are cursed above all livestock,and above every animal of the field.You shall go on your bellyand you shall eat dust all the days of your life.

15. I will put hostility between you and the woman,and between your offspring and her offspring.He will bruise your head,and you will bruise his heel.”

16. To the woman he said,“I will greatly multiply your pain in childbirth.In pain you will bear children.Your desire will be for your husband,and he will rule over you.”

17. To Adam he said,“Because you have listened to your wife’s voice,and ate from the tree,about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it,’the ground is cursed for your sake.You will eat from it with much labor all the days of your life.

18. It will yield thorns and thistles to you;and you will eat the herb of the field.
