Genesis 3:8-15
New King James Version
8 And they heard (A)the [a]sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the [b]cool of the day, and Adam and his wife (B)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, (C)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, (D)“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, (E)“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 (F)you shall eat dust
All the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity
Between you and the woman,
And between (G)your seed and (H)her Seed;
(I)He shall bruise your head,
And you shall bruise His heel.”
