Genesis 1:26-28

New International Version

²⁶Then God said, “Let us^(A) make mankind^(B) in our image,^(C) in our likeness,^(D) so that they may rule^(E) over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky,^(F) over the livestock and all the wild animals,^[a] and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”

²⁷So God created^(G) mankind^(H) in his own image,^(I)
in the image of God^(J) he created them;
male and female^(K) he created them.^(L)

²⁸God blessed them and said to them,^(M) “Be fruitful and increase in number;^(N) fill the earth^(O) and subdue it. Rule over^(P) the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.^(Q)”

Genesis 3:14-20

New International Version

¹⁴So 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.
¹⁵And 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.”

¹⁶To 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)”

¹⁷To 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)
¹⁸It will produce thorns and thistles^(M) for you,
    and you will eat the plants of the field.^(N)
¹⁹By 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)
