And the serpent was cunning above every animal of the field which Jehovah God had made. And he said to the woman, Is it true that God has said, You shall not eat from any tree of the garden?

And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden,

but of the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God has said, You shall not eat of it, nor shall you touch it, lest you die.

And the serpent said to the woman, Dying you shall not die,

for God knows that in the day you eat of it, even your eyes shall be opened, and you shall be as God, knowing good and evil.

And the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and the tree was desirable to make one wise. And she took of its fruit andate; and she also gave to her husband with her,and he ate.

And the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked. And they sewed leaves of the fig tree, and made girdles for themselves.
