Palabra de Dios para Todos
El pecado de Adán y Eva
3 La serpiente era más astuta que todos los animales salvajes que el SEÑOR Dios había hecho, así que le preguntó a la mujer:
—¿Es cierto que Dios les dijo que no coman de ningún árbol del jardín?
2 Y la mujer le respondió:
—Podemos comer los frutos de los árboles del jardín. 3 Pero Dios nos dijo: “No deben comer frutos del árbol que está en medio del jardín, ni siquiera tocarlo porque si lo hacen morirán”.
4 Entonces la serpiente le dijo a la mujer:
—Con seguridad no morirán. 5 Incluso Dios sabe que cuando ustedes coman de ese árbol, comprenderán todo mejor; serán como dioses porque podrán diferenciar entre el bien y el mal.
6 Cuando la mujer vio que el árbol era hermoso y los frutos que daba eran buenos para comer, y que además ese árbol era atractivo por la sabiduría que podía dar, tomó algunos frutos del árbol y se los comió. Su esposo se encontraba con ella, ella le dio, y él también comió. 7 Como si se les abrieran los ojos, se dieron cuenta de que estaban desnudos. Entonces se hicieron ropa cosiendo hojas de higuera.
8 En medio de un ventarrón retumbaba la voz del SEÑOR Dios que caminaba por el jardín. Entonces al oírlo, el hombre y la mujer se escondieron del Señor Dios entre los árboles del jardín. 9 El SEÑOR Dios llamó al hombre y le dijo:
—¿Dónde estás?
10 El hombre le respondió:
—Escuché que andabas por el jardín y me asusté porque estaba desnudo, entonces me escondí.
11 Luego Dios le preguntó:
—¿Quién te dijo que estabas desnudo? ¿Acaso has comido del árbol del que les prohibí comer?
12 El hombre dijo:
—La mujer que me diste por compañera me dio del fruto de ese árbol, y yo comí.
13 Luego el SEÑOR Dios le preguntó a la mujer:
—¿Conque esas tenemos?
Y la mujer respondió:
—La serpiente me engañó y yo comí.
14 Entonces el SEÑOR Dios le dijo a la serpiente:
—Por haber hecho esto,
entre todos los animales, sólo tú serás castigada.
Tendrás que arrastrarte sobre tu vientre
y comerás polvo todos los días de tu vida.
15 Haré que tú y la mujer sean enemigas
y que tu descendencia sea enemiga de la de ella.
La descendencia de ella buscará aplastarte la cabeza
mientras tú le tratarás de picar en el talón.
16 Después Dios le dijo a la mujer:
—Te daré más trabajo
y multiplicaré tus embarazos;
y con todo y tu duro trabajo,
tendrás también que dar a luz a los hijos.[a]
Desearás estar con tu marido,
pero él te dominará a ti.[b]
17 Luego Dios le dijo al hombre:
—Ya que tú obedeciste a tu mujer
y comiste del árbol que yo te había prohibido,
la tierra estará maldita por tu culpa.
Tendrás que conseguir la comida por medio de duro trabajo,
durante todos los días de tu vida.
18 Del suelo nacerán cardos y espinas para ti,
y tendrás que comer plantas del campo.[c]
19 Obtendrás tu comida
trabajando duramente
hasta que mueras y regreses al polvo,
porque tú saliste de allí.
Polvo eres
y en polvo te convertirás.
20 El hombre le puso a su mujer el nombre «Eva»[d], ya que ella se convertiría en madre de todos los seres humanos.
21 El SEÑOR Dios hizo con pieles de animales ropa para el hombre y su mujer, y los vistió.
22 Luego el SEÑOR Dios dijo: «Miren, el hombre y la mujer se han convertido en seres como nosotros, pues saben reconocer el bien y el mal. Ahora tienen a su alcance los frutos del árbol de la vida, para comerlos y vivir para siempre».
23 Entonces el SEÑOR Dios los sacó del jardín del Edén a trabajar la tierra, de la cual el ser humano estaba hecho. 24 Los expulsó y luego puso al oriente del jardín del Edén unos querubines y una espada en llamas que giraba para cerrar el camino de regreso al árbol de la vida.

The Fall
3 Now the serpent(A) was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?(B)”
2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden,(C) 3 but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”(D)
4 “You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman.(E) 5 “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God,(F) knowing good and evil.”
6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable(G) for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband,(H) who was with her, and he ate it.(I) 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked;(J) so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.(K)
8 Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking(L) in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid(M) from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. 9 But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?”(N)
10 He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid(O) because I was naked;(P) so I hid.”
11 And he said, “Who told you that you were naked?(Q) Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?(R)”
12 The man said, “The woman you put here with me(S)—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”
13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”
The woman said, “The serpent deceived me,(T) and I ate.”
14 So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,
“Cursed(U) are you above all livestock
and all wild animals!
You will crawl on your belly
and you will eat dust(V)
all the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring[a](W) and hers;(X)
he will crush[b] your head,(Y)
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.(Z)
Your desire will be for your husband,
and he will rule over you.(AA)”
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,’(AB)
“Cursed(AC) is the ground(AD) because of you;
through painful toil(AE) you will eat food from it
all the days of your life.(AF)
18 It will produce thorns and thistles(AG) for you,
and you will eat the plants of the field.(AH)
19 By the sweat of your brow(AI)
you will eat your food(AJ)
until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
and to dust you will return.”(AK)
20 Adam[c] named his wife Eve,[d](AL) 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.(AM) 22 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us,(AN) knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life(AO) and eat, and live forever.” 23 So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden(AP) to work the ground(AQ) 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(AR) cherubim(AS) and a flaming sword(AT) flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.(AU)

The Fall
3 Now (A)the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made.
He said to the woman, “Did God actually say, ‘You[a] shall not eat of any tree in the garden’?” 2 And the woman said to the serpent, “We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden, 3 but God said, (B)‘You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.’” 4 (C)But the serpent said to the woman, “You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” 6 So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise,[b] she took of its fruit (D)and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, (E)and he ate. 7 (F)Then the eyes of both were opened, (G)and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves loincloths.
8 And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool[c] of the day, and the man and his wife (H)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 to him, “Where are you?”[d] 10 And he said, “I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid, (I)because I was naked, and I hid myself.” 11 He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten of the tree of which I commanded you not to eat?” 12 The man said, (J)“The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit of the tree, and I ate.” 13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this that you have done?” The woman said, (K)“The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
14 The Lord God said to the serpent,
“Because you have done this,
cursed are you above all livestock
and above all beasts of the field;
on your belly you shall go,
and (L)dust you shall eat
all the days of your life.
15 I will put enmity between you and the woman,
and between your offspring[e] and (M)her offspring;
(N)he shall bruise your head,
and you shall bruise his heel.”
16 To the woman he said,
“I will surely multiply your pain in childbearing;
(O)in pain you shall bring forth children.
(P)Your desire shall be for[f] your husband,
and he shall (Q)rule over you.”
17 And to Adam he said,
“Because you have listened to the voice of your wife
and have eaten of the tree
(R)of which I commanded you,
‘You shall not eat of it,’
(S)cursed is the ground because of you;
(T)in pain you shall eat of it all the days of your life;
18 thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you;
and you shall eat the plants of the field.
19 By the sweat of your face
you shall eat bread,
till you return to the ground,
for out of it you were taken;
(U)for you are dust,
and (V)to dust you shall return.”
20 The man called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.[g] 21 And the Lord God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins and clothed them.
22 Then the Lord God said, (W)“Behold, the man has become like one of us in knowing good and evil. Now, lest he reach out his hand (X)and take also of the tree of life and eat, and live forever—” 23 therefore the Lord God sent him out from the garden of Eden (Y)to work the ground from which he was taken. 24 He drove out the man, and at the east of the garden of Eden he placed the (Z)cherubim and a flaming sword that turned every way to guard the way to the tree of life.
