14 Then the Lord God said to the serpent,

(A)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 (B)dust you shall eat
All the days of your life;
15 And I will [a](C)make enemies
Of you and the woman,
And of your [b]offspring and her [c]Descendant;
(D)He shall [d]bruise you on the head,
And you shall bruise Him on the heel.”

16 To the woman He said,

“I will greatly multiply
Your pain [e]in childbirth,
In pain you shall (E)deliver children;
Yet your desire will be for your husband,
And (F)he shall rule over you.”

17 Then to Adam He said, “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat from it’;

(G)Cursed is the ground because of you;
(H)With [f]hard labor you shall eat from it
All the days of your life.
18 Both thorns and thistles it shall grow for you;
Yet you shall eat the [g]plants of the field;
19 By the sweat of your face
You shall eat bread,
Until you (I)return to the ground,
Because (J)from it you were taken;
For you are dust,
And to dust you shall return.”

20 Now the man named his wife [h](K)Eve, because she was the mother of all the living. 21 And the Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and clothed them.

22 Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of (L)Us, knowing good and evil; and now, he might reach out with his hand, and take fruit also from (M)the tree of life, and eat, and live forever”— 23 therefore the Lord God sent him out of the Garden of Eden, to cultivate the ground from which he was taken. 24 So (N)He drove the man out; and at the (O)east of the Garden of Eden He stationed the (P)cherubim and the flaming sword which turned every direction to guard the way to (Q)the tree of life.

14 So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,

“Cursed(A) are you above all livestock
    and all wild animals!
You will crawl on your belly
    and you will eat dust(B)
    all the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity
    between you and the woman,
    and between your offspring[a](C) and hers;(D)
he will crush[b] your head,(E)
    and you will strike his heel.”

16 To the woman he said,

“I will make your pains in childbearing very severe;
    with painful labor you will give birth to children.(F)
Your desire will be for your husband,
    and he will rule over you.(G)

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,’(H)

“Cursed(I) is the ground(J) because of you;
    through painful toil(K) you will eat food from it
    all the days of your life.(L)
18 It will produce thorns and thistles(M) for you,
    and you will eat the plants of the field.(N)
19 By the sweat of your brow(O)
    you will eat your food(P)
until you return to the ground,
    since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
    and to dust you will return.”(Q)

20 Adam[c] named his wife Eve,[d](R) 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.(S) 22 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us,(T) knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life(U) and eat, and live forever.” 23 So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden(V) to work the ground(W) from which he had been taken. 24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side[e] of the Garden of Eden(X) cherubim(Y) and a flaming sword(Z) flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.(AA)
