15 And I will put 1enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her seed; 2He shall bruise you on the head, And you shall bruise him on the heel."
16 To the woman He said, "I will greatly multiply Your pain in childbirth, In pain you will 3bring forth children; Yet your desire will be for your husband, And 4he will rule over you."
17 Then to Adam He said, "Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree about which I commanded you, saying, 'You shall not eat from it'; 5Cursed is the ground because of you; 6In toil you will eat of it All the days of your life.
18 "Both thorns and thistles it shall grow for you; And you will eat the plants of the field;
19 By the sweat of your face You will eat bread, Till you 7return to the ground, Because 8from it you were taken; For you are dust, And to dust you shall return."
20 Now the man called his wife's name 9Eve, because she was the mother of all the living.
21 The LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, and clothed them.
22 Then the LORD God said, "Behold, the man has become like one of 10Us, knowing good and evil; and now, he might stretch out his hand, and take also from 11the tree of life, and eat, and live forever "-
23 therefore the LORD God sent him out from the garden of Eden, to cultivate the ground from which he was taken.
24 So 12He drove the man out; and at the 13east of the garden of Eden He stationed the 14cherubim and the flaming sword which turned every direction to guard the way to 15the tree of life.
