Genesis 3:9 (NLT) New Living Translation

1 The serpent was the shrewdest of all the wild animals the LORD God had made. One day he asked the woman, "Did God really say you must not eat the fruit from any of the trees in the garden?"
2 "Of course we may eat fruit from the trees in the garden," the woman replied.
3 "It's only the fruit from the tree in the middle of the garden that we are not allowed to eat. God said, 'You must not eat it or even touch it; if you do, you will die.'"
4 "You won't die!" the serpent replied to the woman.
5 "God knows that your eyes will be opened as soon as you eat it, and you will be like God, knowing both good and evil."
6 The woman was convinced. She saw that the tree was beautiful and its fruit looked delicious, and she wanted the wisdom it would give her. So she took some of the fruit and ate it. Then she gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it, too.
7 At that moment their eyes were opened, and they suddenly felt shame at their nakedness. So they sewed fig leaves together to cover themselves.
8 When the cool evening breezes were blowing, the man and his wife heard the LORD God walking about in the garden. So they hid from the LORD God among the trees.
9 Then the LORD God called to the man, "Where are you?"
10 He replied, "I heard you walking in the garden, so I hid. I was afraid because I was naked."
11 "Who told you that you were naked?" the LORD God asked. "Have you eaten from the tree whose fruit I commanded you not to eat?"
12 The man replied, "It was the woman you gave me who gave me the fruit, and I ate it."
13 Then the LORD God asked the woman, "What have you done?" "The serpent deceived me," she replied. "That's why I ate it."
14 Then the LORD God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, you are cursed more than all animals, domestic and wild. You will crawl on your belly, groveling in the dust as long as you live.
15 And I will cause hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will strike your head, and you will strike his heel."
16 Then he said to the woman, "I will sharpen the pain of your pregnancy, and in pain you will give birth. And you will desire to control your husband, but he will rule over you. "
17 And to the man he said, "Since you listened to your wife and ate from the tree whose fruit I commanded you not to eat, the ground is cursed because of you. All your life you will struggle to scratch a living from it.
18 It will grow thorns and thistles for you, though you will eat of its grains.
19 By the sweat of your brow will you have food to eat until you return to the ground from which you were made. For you were made from dust, and to dust you will return."
20 Then the man-- Adam-- named his wife Eve, because she would be the mother of all who live.
21 And the LORD God made clothing from animal skins for Adam and his wife.
22 Then the LORD God said, "Look, the human beings have become like us, knowing both good and evil. What if they reach out, take fruit from the tree of life, and eat it? Then they will live forever!"
23 So the LORD God banished them from the Garden of Eden, and he sent Adam out to cultivate the ground from which he had been made.
24 After sending them out, the LORD God stationed mighty cherubim to the east of the Garden of Eden. And he placed a flaming sword that flashed back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.
1 Now the serpent H5175 was H1961 more subtle H6175 than any H4480 H3605 beast H2416 of the field H7704 which H834 the LORD H3068 God H430 had made. H6213 And he said H559 unto H413 the woman, H802 Yea H637 H3588 , hath God H430 said, H559 Ye shall not H3808 eat H398 of every H4480 H3605 tree H6086 of the garden H1588 ?
2 And the woman H802 said H559 unto H413 the serpent, H5175 We may eat H398 of the fruit H4480 H6529 of the trees H6086 of the garden: H1588
3 But of the fruit H4480 H6529 of the tree H6086 which H834 is in the midst H8432 of the garden, H1588 God H430 hath said, H559 Ye shall not H3808 eat H398 of H4480 it, neither H3808 shall ye touch H5060 it, lest H6435 ye die. H4191
4 And the serpent H5175 said H559 unto H413 the woman, H802 Ye shall not H3808 surely die H4191 H4191 :
5 For H3588 God H430 doth know H3045 that H3588 in the day H3117 ye eat H398 thereof, H4480 then your eyes H5869 shall be opened, H6491 and ye shall be H1961 as gods, H430 knowing H3045 good H2896 and evil. H7451
6 And when the woman H802 saw H7200 that H3588 the tree H6086 was good H2896 for food, H3978 and that H3588 it H1931 was pleasant H8378 to the eyes, H5869 and a tree H6086 to be desired H2530 to make one wise, H7919 she took H3947 of the fruit H4480 H6529 thereof , and did eat, H398 and gave H5414 also H1571 unto her husband H376 with H5973 her ; and he did eat. H398
7 And the eyes H5869 of them both H8147 were opened, H6491 and they knew H3045 that H3588 they H1992 were naked; H5903 and they sewed H8609 fig H8384 leaves H5929 together , and made H6213 themselves aprons. H2290
8 And they heard H8085 H853 the voice H6963 of the LORD H3068 God H430 walking H1980 in the garden H1588 in the cool H7307 of the day: H3117 and Adam H121 and his wife H802 hid themselves H2244 from the presence H4480 H6440 of the LORD H3068 God H430 amongst H8432 the trees H6086 of the garden. H1588
9 And the LORD H3068 God H430 called H7121 unto H413 Adam, H121 and said H559 unto him, Where H335 art thou?
10 And he said, H559 I heard H8085 H853 thy voice H6963 in the garden, H1588 and I was afraid, H3372 because H3588 I H595 was naked; H5903 and I hid myself. H2244
11 And he said, H559 Who H4310 told H5046 thee that H3588 thou H859 wast naked H5903 ? Hast thou eaten H398 of H4480 the tree, H6086 whereof H834 H4480 I commanded H6680 thee that thou shouldest not H1115 eat H398 ?
12 And the man H120 said, H559 The woman H802 whom H834 thou gavest H5414 to be with H5973 me, she H1931 gave H5414 me of H4480 the tree, H6086 and I did eat. H398
13 And the LORD H3068 God H430 said H559 unto the woman, H802 What H4100 is this H2063 that thou hast done H6213 ? And the woman H802 said, H559 The serpent H5175 beguiled H5377 me , and I did eat. H398
14 And the LORD H3068 God H430 said H559 unto H413 the serpent, H5175 Because H3588 thou hast done H6213 this, H2063 thou H859 art cursed H779 above all H4480 H3605 cattle, H929 and above every H4480 H3605 beast H2416 of the field; H7704 upon H5921 thy belly H1512 shalt thou go, H1980 and dust H6083 shalt thou eat H398 all H3605 the days H3117 of thy life: H2416
15 And I will put H7896 enmity H342 between H996 thee and the woman, H802 and between H996 thy seed H2233 and her seed; H2233 it H1931 shall bruise H7779 thy head, H7218 and thou H859 shalt bruise H7779 his heel. H6119
16 Unto H413 the woman H802 he said, H559 I will greatly H7235 multiply H7235 thy sorrow H6093 and thy conception; H2032 in sorrow H6089 thou shalt bring forth H3205 children; H1121 and thy desire H8669 shall be to H413 thy husband, H376 and he H1931 shall rule H4910 over thee.
17 And unto Adam H121 he said, H559 Because H3588 thou hast hearkened H8085 unto the voice H6963 of thy wife, H802 and hast eaten H398 of H4480 the tree, H6086 of which H834 I commanded H6680 thee, saying, H559 Thou shalt not H3808 eat H398 of H4480 it: cursed H779 is the ground H127 for thy sake; H5668 in sorrow H6093 shalt thou eat H398 of it all H3605 the days H3117 of thy life; H2416
18 Thorns H6975 also and thistles H1863 shall it bring forth H6779 to thee ; and thou shalt eat H398 H853 the herb H6212 of the field; H7704
19 In the sweat H2188 of thy face H639 shalt thou eat H398 bread, H3899 till H5704 thou return H7725 unto H413 the ground; H127 for H3588 out of H4480 it wast thou taken: H3947 for H3588 dust H6083 thou H859 art , and unto H413 dust H6083 shalt thou return. H7725
20 And Adam H121 called H7121 his wife's H802 name H8034 Eve; H2332 because H3588 she H1931 was H1961 the mother H517 of all H3605 living. H2416
21 Unto Adam H121 also and to his wife H802 did the LORD H3068 God H430 make H6213 coats H3801 of skins, H5785 and clothed H3847 them.
22 And the LORD H3068 God H430 said, H559 Behold, H2005 the man H120 is become H1961 as one H259 of H4480 us , to know H3045 good H2896 and evil: H7451 and now, H6258 lest H6435 he put forth H7971 his hand, H3027 and take H3947 also H1571 of the tree H4480 H6086 of life, H2416 and eat, H398 and live H2425 forever: H5769
23 Therefore the LORD H3068 God H430 sent him forth H7971 from the garden H4480 H1588 of Eden, H5731 to till the ground H127 from whence H4480 H8033 H834 he was taken. H3947
24 So he drove out H1644 H853 the man; H120 and he placed H7931 at the east H4480 H6924 of the garden H1588 of Eden H5731 H853 Cherubims, H3742 and a flaming H3858 sword H2719 which turned every way, H2015 to keep H8104 H853 the way H1870 of the tree H6086 of life. H2416
