12 And Adam said, 'The woman, whom you gave to me as a companion, gave to me from the tree, and I ate.'
13 And the Lord God said to the woman, 'Why have you done this?' And she responded, 'The serpent deceived me, and I ate.'
14 And the Lord God said to the serpent: 'Because you have done this, you are cursed among all living things, even the wild beasts of the earth. Upon your breast shall you travel, and the ground shall you eat, all the days of your life.
15 I will put enmities between you and the woman, between your offspring and her offspring. She will crush your head, and you will lie in wait for her heel.'
16 To the woman, he also said: 'I will multiply your labors and your conceptions. In pain shall you give birth to sons, and you shall be under your husband's power, and he shall have dominion over you.'
