¹⁰ He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid^(D) because I was naked;^(E) so I hid.”

¹¹ And he said, “Who told you that you were naked?^(F) Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?^(G)”

¹² The man said, “The woman you put here with me^(H)—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”

¹³ Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”

The woman said, “The serpent deceived me,^(I) and I ate.”

²¹ The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.^(A)

²⁴ After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side^[a] of the Garden of Eden^(A) cherubim^(B) and a flaming sword^(C) flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.^(D)
