Genesis 3
Christian Standard Bible
The Temptation and the Fall
3 Now the serpent was the most cunning of all the wild animals that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You can’t eat from any tree in the garden’?” (A)
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the fruit from the trees in the garden. 3 But about the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God said, ‘You must not eat it or touch it, or you will die.’”(B)
4 “No! You will certainly not die,” the serpent said to the woman.(C) 5 “In fact, God knows that when[a] you eat it your eyes will be opened and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” 6 The woman saw that the tree was good for food and delightful to look at, and that it was desirable for obtaining wisdom. So she took some of its fruit and ate it; she also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.(D) 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
Sin’s Consequences
8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden at the time of the evening breeze,[b] and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden.(E) 9 So the Lord God called out to the man and said to him, “Where are you?”
10 And he said, “I heard you[c] in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid.”
11 Then he asked, “Who told you that you were naked? Did you eat from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”
12 The man replied,(F) “The woman you gave to be with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate.”
13 So the Lord God asked the woman, “What have you done?”
And the woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”(G)
14 So the Lord God said to the serpent:
Because you have done this,
you are cursed more than any livestock
and more than any wild animal.
You will move on your belly
and eat dust all the days of your life.(H)
15 I will put hostility between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and her offspring.[d]
He will strike your head,
and you will strike his heel.(I)
16 He said to the woman:
I will intensify your labor pains;
you will bear children with painful effort.(J)
Your desire(K) will be for your husband,
yet he will rule over you.
17 And he said to the man, “Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘Do not eat from it’:
The ground is cursed because of you.(L)
You will eat from it by means of painful labor[e]
all the days of your life.
18 It will produce thorns and thistles for you,
and you will eat the plants of the field.(M)
19 You will eat bread[f] by the sweat of your brow
until you return to the ground,(N)
since you were taken from it.
For you are dust,
and you will return to dust.”
20 The man named his wife Eve[g] because she was the mother of all the living. 21 The Lord God made clothing from skins for the man and his wife, and he clothed them.
22 The Lord God said, “Since the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil, he must not reach out, take from the tree of life, eat, and live forever.”(O) 23 So the Lord God sent him away from the garden of Eden to work the ground from which he was taken. 24 He drove the man out and stationed the cherubim and the flaming, whirling sword east of the garden of Eden to guard the way to the tree of life.(P)

New King James Version
The Temptation and Fall of Man(A)
3 Now (B)the serpent was (C)more cunning than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, “Has God indeed said, ‘You shall not eat of every tree of the garden’?”
2 And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat the (D)fruit of the trees of the garden; 3 but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God has said, ‘You shall not eat it, nor shall you (E)touch it, lest you die.’ ”
4 (F)Then the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
6 So when the woman (G)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 (H)and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, (I)and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves [b]coverings.
8 And they heard (J)the [c]sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the [d]cool of the day, and Adam and his wife (K)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, (L)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?”
12 Then the man said, (M)“The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.”
13 And the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”
The woman said, (N)“The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
14 So the Lord God said to the serpent:
“Because you have done this,
You are cursed more than all cattle,
And more than every beast of the field;
On your belly you shall go,
And (O)you shall eat dust
All the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity
Between you and the woman,
And between (P)your seed and (Q)her Seed;
(R)He shall bruise your head,
And you shall bruise His heel.”
16 To the woman He said:
“I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception;
(S)In pain you shall bring forth children;
(T)Your desire shall be [e]for your husband,
And he shall (U)rule over you.”
17 Then to Adam He said, (V)“Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree (W)of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it’:
(X)“Cursed is the ground for your sake;
(Y)In toil you shall eat of it
All the days of your life.
18 Both thorns and thistles it shall [f]bring forth for you,
And (Z)you shall eat the herb of the field.
19 (AA)In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread
Till you return to the ground,
For out of it you were taken;
(AB)For dust you are,
And (AC)to dust you shall return.”
20 And Adam called his wife’s name (AD)Eve,[g] because she was the mother of all living.
21 Also for Adam and his wife the Lord God made tunics of skin, and clothed them.
22 Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he put out his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever”— 23 therefore the Lord God sent him out of the garden of Eden (AE)to till the ground from which he was taken. 24 So (AF)He drove out the man; and He placed (AG)cherubim (AH)at the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of (AI)life.

Битие 3
Библия, нов превод от оригиналните езици (с неканоничните книги)
Първият грях
3 (A)(B)(C)А змията беше най-хитра от всички полски зверове, които Господ Бог беше създал. И тя каза на жената: „Наистина ли Бог каза да не ядете от никое дърво в градината?“ 2 Но жената каза: „Ние можем да ядем плодове от дърветата. 3 Само за плода на дървото, което е посред градината, Бог каза: ‘Не яжте от него и не се докосвайте до него, за да не умрете!’“ 4 Тогава змията каза на жената: „Вие няма да умрете! 5 Не! Бог знае, че когато вие ядете от него, очите ви ще се отворят и ще бъдете като богове, които познават добро и зло.“ 6 И жената видя, че дървото е добро за ядене и е приятно за очите, а също, че е дърво желано, защото дава знание; тя взе от плода му и яде, даде също и на мъжа си, та яде и той. 7 Тогава очите на двамата се отвориха и разбраха, че са голи. Затова те си съшиха смокинови листа и си направиха препасници.
8 (D)Тогава те чуха гласа на Господ Бог, когато ходеше в градината по време на дневната прохлада привечер, и Адам и жена му се скриха от лицето на Господ Бог между дърветата на градината.
9 Но Господ Бог повика човека и му каза: „Къде си?“ 10 Той отговори: „Чух гласа Ти в градината и се уплаших, защото съм гол, и се скрих.“ 11 А Бог му рече: „Кой ти каза, че си гол? Да не би да си ял от дървото, за което ти заповядах да не ядеш?“ 12 Човекът отговори: „Жената, която Ти даде да бъде с мене, тя ми даде от дървото и аз ядох.“ 13 (E)Тогава Господ Бог каза на жената: „Защо си направила това?“ Жената отговори: „Змията ме подмами и аз ядох.“
14 (F)Господ Бог каза на змията: „Понеже си направила това, проклета да си между всичкия добитък и всички полски зверове! По корема си ще се влачиш и пръст ще ядеш през всички дни на живота си. 15 И ще поставя вражда между тебе и жената, и между твоето потомство и нейното потомство; то ще те поразява в главата, а ти ще го хапеш по петата.“
16 На жената Той каза: „Ще умножа и преумножа болките ти, когато си бременна, с болка ще раждаш деца и към мъжа ти ще тегнеш, а той ще господарува над тебе.“
17 (G)На мъжа Той каза: „Понеже си послушал гласа на жена си и си ял от дървото, за което ти заповядах, като казах: ‘Не яж от него’, проклета да е земята заради тебе; с мъка ще се храниш от нея през всичките дни на живота си. 18 Тръни и бодили тя ще ти ражда и ти ще се храниш с полска трева. 19 (H)С пот на лицето си ще ядеш хляба си, докато се върнеш в земята, от която си взет; понеже си пръст и ще се върнеш в пръстта.“
20 И човекът даде име на жена си Ева, защото тя беше майка на всички живи. 21 И Господ Бог направи кожени дрехи на човека и на жена му. 22 (I)И Господ Бог каза: „Ето човекът стана като един от Нас, да знае добро и зло; но сега той не трябва да протегне ръката си и да вземе също от дървото на живота, та да яде и да живее вечно!“ 23 Тогава Господ Бог го изпъди от Едемската градина – да обработва земята, от която беше взет. 24 Тогава, като изгони човека, постави на изток от Едемската градина херувим и пламенен меч, който се върти, да пазят пътя към дървото на живота.
