And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruitthereof, and did eat, and gavealsounto her husbandwith her; and he did eat.
And theyheard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselvesfrom the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden.
And the LORD God saidunto the serpent, Becausethouhastdonethis, thou art cursedabove all cattle, and aboveeverybeast of the field; upon thy bellyshaltthou go, and dustshaltthou eat all the days of thy life:
Unto the woman he said, I willgreatlymultiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrowthoushaltbringforthchildren; and thy desireshall be to thy husband, and he shallruleoverthee.
And untoAdam he said, Becausethouhasthearkenedunto the voice of thy wife, and hasteaten of the tree, of which I commandedthee, saying, Thoushalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrowshaltthou eat of it all the days of thy life;
In the sweat of thy faceshaltthou eat bread, tillthoureturnunto the ground; for out of it wastthoutaken: for dustthou art, and untodustshaltthoureturn.
And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to knowgood and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and takealso of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of EdenCherubims, and a flamingswordwhichturnedevery way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
