Genesis 3:6-11
New King James Version
6 So when the woman (A)saw that the tree was good for food, that it was [a]pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit (B)and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, (C)and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves [b]coverings.
8 And they heard (D)the [c]sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the [d]cool of the day, and Adam and his wife (E)hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
9 Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?”
10 So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, (F)and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.”
11 And He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?”
