Genesis 3:12-15
New King James Version
12 Then the man said, (A)“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, (B)“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 (C)you shall eat dust
All the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity
Between you and the woman,
And between (D)your seed and (E)her Seed;
(F)He shall bruise your head,
And you shall bruise His heel.”
Genesis 3:12-15
Young's Literal Translation
12 and the man saith, `The woman whom Thou didst place with me -- she hath given to me of the tree -- and I do eat.'
13 And Jehovah God saith to the woman, `What [is] this thou hast done?' and the woman saith, `The serpent hath caused me to forget -- and I do eat.'
14 And Jehovah God saith unto the serpent, `Because thou hast done this, cursed [art] thou above all the cattle, and above every beast of the field: on thy belly dost thou go, and dust thou dost eat, all days of thy life;
15 and enmity I put between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; he doth bruise thee -- the head, and thou dost bruise him -- the heel.'

New American Standard Bible
12 (A)The man said, “The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me some of the fruit of the tree, and I ate.” 13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this that you have done?” And the woman said, “(B)The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” 14 Then the Lord God said to the serpent,
“(C)Because you have done this,
Cursed are you more than all the livestock,
And more than any animal of the field;
On your belly you shall go,
And (D)dust you shall eat
All the days of your life;
15 And I will [a](E)make enemies
Of you and the woman,
And of your [b]offspring and her [c]Descendant;
(F)He shall [d]bruise you on the head,
And you shall bruise Him on the heel.”
