The couple disobey God

Gen 3:1–13

3:1 The couple disobey God

3Now the snake was the craftiest of all the animals that Yahweh God had created, and one day he asked the woman, “Did God really command you to not eat fruit from any of the trees in the garden?”[ref]

2“No,” answered the woman, “we can eat the fruit from any of the trees in the garden, 3except from the tree that is in the centre. He commanded us to not eat that fruit or even touch it, because if we do, we will die!”

4But the serpent said to the woman, “It’s not definite that you’ll die. 5Actually, God knows that as soon as you eat fruit from that tree, you’ll understand new things, so that you will know what’s right and what’s wrong just like God does.”

6The woman saw that the tree’s fruit looked good to eat and that the tree itself was very atractive, plus she wanted to eat the fruit so that it would make her wise. So she picked some of the fruit and ate it and she also gave some of it to her husband who was there with her, and he ate it too. 7Immediately they both had new understanding and they felt their nakedness. So they sewed some fig leaves together and made skirts for themselves.

8Late that afternoon, during the cool time of the day, the man and his wife heard Yahweh God’s voice as he walked in the garden, but they hid from him behind some trees in the garden, 9so Yahweh God called out to the man, “Adam, where are you?”

10“I heard you walking in the garden,” he replied, “but I was scared because I was naked, so I hid myself.”

11“Who told you that you’re naked?” Yahweh God asked. “Have you eaten the fruit that I told you not to eat?”

12“The woman that you put here beside me,” answered the man, “she gave me some fruit from the tree and I ate it.”

13Then Yahweh God asked the woman, “What did you do?”[ref]

“The snake tricked me, so I ate some of the fruit,” the woman replied.
