14 The Lord God said to the serpent,“Because you have done this,you are cursed above all livestock,and above every animal of the field.You shall go on your bellyand you shall eat dust all the days of your life.
15 I will put hostility between you and the woman,and between your offspring and her offspring.He will bruise your head,and you will bruise his heel.”
16 To the woman he said,“I will greatly multiply your pain in childbirth.In pain you will bear children.Your desire will be for your husband,and he will rule over you.”
17 To Adam he said,“Because you have listened to your wife’s voice,and ate from the tree,about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it,’the ground is cursed for your sake.You will eat from it with much labour all the days of your life.
18 It will yield thorns and thistles to you;and you will eat the herb of the field.
19 By the sweat of your face will you eat bread until you return to the ground,for out of it you were taken.For you are dust,and to dust you shall return.”
20 The man called his wife Havah because she would be the mother of all the living.
