Genesis 3:7-11
1599 Geneva Bible
7 Then the eyes of them both were opened, and they [a]knew that they were naked, and they sewed fig tree leaves together, and made themselves [b]breeches.
8 ¶ Afterward they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the [c]cool of the day, and the man and his wife [d]hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
9 But the Lord God called to the man, and said unto him, Where art thou?
10 Who said, I heard thy voice in the garden and was afraid: because I was [e]naked, therefore I hid myself.
11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat?
