Genesis 3:5-13

God knows that the moment you eat it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing both good and evil.” When the woman saw that the tree produced delicious fruit, delightful to look upon, and desirable to give one insight, she took its fruit and ate it. She gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he also ate it. Immediately, their eyes were opened, and they realized they were naked, vulnerable, and ashamed; so they sewed fig leaves together for coverings. Then Adam and his wife heard the sound of YAHWEH-God passing through the garden in the breeze of the day. So, they hid among the trees concealing themselves from the face of YAHWEH-God. Then YAHWEH-God called Adam’s name and asked, “Where are you?” Adam answered, “I heard your powerful presence moving in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.” “Who told you that you were naked?” God said. “Did you eat the fruit of the tree that I commanded you not to eat?” Adam pointed to the woman and said, “The woman you placed alongside me— she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it.” So YAHWEH-God said to the woman, “What have you done?” The woman pointed to the snake and said, “The shining snake tricked me, and I ate.”
