Genesis 3:17-24
Genesis 3:17-24 TPT
And to Adam he said, “Because you obeyed your wife instead of me, and you ate from the forbidden tree when I had commanded you not to, the ground will be cursed because of you. You will eat of it through painful toil all the days of your life. It will sprout weeds and thorns, and you will eat the plants of the field. You will painfully toil and sweat to produce food to eat, until your body—taken from the ground—returns to the ground. For you are from dust, and to dust you will return.” The man named his wife Eve—“Life-Giver,” because she would become the mother of every human being. YAHWEH-God made garments from animal skins to clothe Adam and Eve. And YAHWEH-God said, “The man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil. And now he might take in his hands fruit from the Tree of Life, and eat it, and live forever.” Therefore, YAHWEH-God expelled him from Eden’s paradise to till the ground from which he was taken. He drove them out of the garden, and placed fearsome angelic sentries east of the garden of Eden, with a turning fiery sword to guard the way to the Tree of Life.
