1
And the serpent was more subtle than every living creature of the field that Yahuah Elohim had made. And it said to the woman, “Has Elohim truly said, ‘You shall not eat from every tree of the garden’?”
2
And the woman said to the serpent, “From the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat.
3
But from the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, Elohim has said, ‘You shall not eat from it, and you shall not touch it, lest you die.’”
4
And the serpent said to the woman, “Dying, you shall not die.
5
For Elohim knows that in the day you eat from it, your eyes will be opened, and you will become as Elohim, knowing good and evil.”
6
And the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was desirable to the eyes, and that the tree was desirable for gaining wisdom. And she took from its fruit and ate; and she also gave to her ish who was with her, and he ate.
7
And the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
8
And they heard the sound of Yahuah Elohim moving within the garden at the breath of the day. And Adam and his ishah hid themselves from the presence of Yahuah Elohim among the trees of the garden.
9
And Yahuah Elohim called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?”
10
And he said, “I heard Your sound in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid myself.”
11
And He said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree from which I commanded you not to eat?”
12
And Adam said, “The woman whom You gave to be with me—she gave to me from the tree, and I ate.”
13
And Yahuah Elohim said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” And the woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
14
And Yahuah Elohim said to the serpent: “Because you have done this, cursed are you above all livestock and above every living creature of the field. Upon your belly you shall go, and dust you shall eat all the days of your life.
15
And I will set enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed. He shall strike your head, and you shall strike his heel.”
16
To the woman He said: “I will greatly multiply your pain and your conception. In pain you shall bring forth children, and your desire shall be toward your ish, and he shall rule over you.”
17
And to Adam He said: “Because you listened to the voice of your ishah and ate from the tree concerning which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat from it,’ cursed is the ground because of you. In toil you shall eat from it all the days of your life.
18
And 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 until you return to the ground, because from it you were taken. For dust you are, and to dust you shall return.”
20
And Adam called the name of his ishah Chavah, because she became the mother of all living.
21
And Yahuah Elohim made garments of skin for Adam and for his ishah, and clothed them.
22
And Yahuah Elohim said, “See, Adam has become as one of Us, knowing good and evil. And now, lest he stretch out his hand and also take from the Tree of Life, and eat, and live perpetually—”
23
And Yahuah Elohim sent him out from the Garden of Eden, to work the ground from which he had been taken.
24
And He drove Adam out, and He stationed at the east of the Garden of Eden the Keruvim, and the flame of the turning sword, to guard the way to the Tree of Life.
