15 And I will put enmity
Between you and the woman,
And between (A)your seed and (B)her Seed;
(C)He shall bruise your head,
And you shall bruise His heel.”

16 To the woman He said:

“I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception;
(D)In pain you shall bring forth children;
(E)Your desire shall be [a]for your husband,
And he shall (F)rule over you.”

17 Then to Adam He said, (G)“Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree (H)of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it’:

(I)“Cursed is the ground for your sake;
(J)In toil you shall eat of it
All the days of your life.
