Genesis 3:18-20
International Standard Version
18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you,
and you’ll eat the plants from the meadows.
19 You will eat food by the sweat of your brow
until you’re buried in[a] the ground,
because you were taken from it.
You’re made from dust
and you’ll return to dust.”
20 Now Adam[b] had named his wife “Eve,”[c] because she was to become the mother of everyone who was living.
