Genesis 3:6-11

WEB · Bible Passage

Bible Text

[6] When the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit of it, and ate; and she gave some to her husband with her, and he ate. [7] Both of their eyes were opened, and they knew that they were naked. They sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons. [8] They heard the voice of Yahweh God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Yahweh God among the trees of the garden. [9] Yahweh God called to the man, and said to him, "Where are you?" [10] The man said, "I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself." [11] God said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?"
