Bereshis 3:16-24
Orthodox Jewish Bible
16 Unto HaIsha He said, I will greatly multiply thy itzavon ([labor] pain) and thy childbearing; in pain thou shalt bring forth banim; and thy teshukah (longing, desire) shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
17 And unto Adam He said, Because thou paid heed unto the voice of thy isha, and hast eaten of HaEtz, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it, arurah (cursed) is haadamah because of thee; in itzavon (pain, suffering, see verse 16) shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life;
18 Kotz also and dardar shall it bring forth to thee; and thou shalt eat the esev of the sadeh;
19 In the sweat of thy brow shalt thou eat lechem, till thou return unto haadamah; for out of it wast thou taken; for aphar thou art, and unto aphar shalt thou return.
20 And HaAdam called the shem of his isha Chavah (Eve); because she was the Em kol chai.
21 Unto Adam also and to his isha did Hashem Elohim make kesonos ohr, and clothed them.
22 And Hashem Elohim said, See, HaAdam is become like one of Us, knowing tov v’rah; and now, lest he put forth his yad, and take also of HaEtz HaChayyim, and eat, and chai l’olam (live forever);
23 Therefore Hashem Elohim sent him forth from the Gan Eden, to work haadamah from which place he was taken.
24 So He drove out HaAdam; and He placed miKedem (at the east) of the Gan Eden HaKeruvim, and a flaming cherev which was ever-turning, to be shomer over the Derech Etz HaChayyim (the Way of the Tree of Life, see Yn 14:6 on Derech).

Genesis 3:16-24
New International Version
16 To the woman he said,
“I will make your pains in childbearing very severe;
with painful labor you will give birth to children.(A)
Your desire will be for your husband,
and he will rule over you.(B)”
17 To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’(C)
“Cursed(D) is the ground(E) because of you;
through painful toil(F) you will eat food from it
all the days of your life.(G)
18 It will produce thorns and thistles(H) for you,
and you will eat the plants of the field.(I)
19 By the sweat of your brow(J)
you will eat your food(K)
until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
and to dust you will return.”(L)
20 Adam[a] named his wife Eve,[b](M) because she would become the mother of all the living.
21 The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.(N) 22 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us,(O) knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life(P) and eat, and live forever.” 23 So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden(Q) to work the ground(R) from which he had been taken. 24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side[c] of the Garden of Eden(S) cherubim(T) and a flaming sword(U) flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.(V)
