IAnd the snake was slier than every animal of the field that YHWH God had made, and he said to the woman, “Has God indeed said you may not eat from any tree of the garden?”
2And the woman said to the snake, “We may eat from the fruit of the trees of the garden. 3But from the fruit of the tree that is within the garden God has said, “You shall not eat from it, and you shall not touch it, or else you’ll die.”
4And the snake said to the woman, “You won’t die! 5Because God knows that in the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you’ll be like God**—knowing good and bad.” 6And the woman saw that the tree was good for eating and that it was an attraction to the eyes, and the tree was desirable to bring about understanding, and she took some of its fruit, and she ate, and gave to her man with her as well, and he ate. 7And the eyes of the two of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they picked fig leaves and made loincloths for themselves.
8And they heard the sound of YHWH God walking in the garden in the wind of the day, and the human and his woman hid from YHWH God among the garden’s trees. 9And YHWH God called the human and said to him, “Where are you?”
10And he said, “I heard the sound of you in the garden and was afraid because I was naked, and I hid.”
IIAnd He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree from which I commanded you not to eat?”
12And the human said, “The woman, whom you placed with me, she gave me from the tree, and I ate.”
13And YHWH God said to the woman, “What is this that you’ve done?”
And the woman said, “The snake tricked me, and I ate.”
14And YHWH God said to the snake, “Because you did this, you are cursed out of every domestic animal and every animal of the field, you’ll go on your belly, and you’ll eat dust all the days of your life. 15And I’ll put enmity between you and the woman and between your seed and her seed. He’ll strike you at the head, and you’ll strike him at the heel.”
16TO the woman He said, “I’ll make your suffering and your labor pain great. You’ll have children in pain. And your desire will be for your man, and he’ll dominate you.”
17And to the human He said, “Because you listened to your woman’s voice and ate from the tree about which I commanded you saying, ‘You shall not eat from it,’ the ground is cursed on your account. You’ll eat from it with suffering all the days of your life.l8And it will grow thorn and thistle at you, and you’ll eat the field’s vegetation. 19By the sweat of your nostrils you’ll eat bread until you go back to the ground, because you were taken from it; because you are dust and you’ll go back to dust.”
20And the human called his woman “Eve,” because she was mother of all living.
2IAnd YHWH God made skin garments for the human and his woman and dressed them.
22And YHWH God said, “Here, the human has become like one of us, to know good and bad. And now, in case he’ll put out his hand and take from the tree of life as well, and eat and live forever”: 23And YHWH God put him out of the garden of Eden, to work the ground from which he was taken. 24And He expelled the human, and He had the cherubs and the flame of a revolving sword reside at the east of the garden of Eden to watch over the way to the tree of life.
