“Because you have done this,

cursed are you above all livestock

and above all beasts of the field;

on your belly you shall go,

and ^fdust you shall eat

all the days of your life.

15  I will put enmity between you and the woman,

and between your offspring¹ and ^gher offspring;

^hhe shall bruise your head,

and you shall bruise his heel.”

“I will surely multiply your pain in childbearing;

ⁱin pain you shall bring forth children.

^jYour desire shall be contrary to² your husband,

but he shall ^krule over you.”

“Because you have listened to the voice of your wife

and have eaten of the tree

^lof which I commanded you,

‘You shall not eat of it,’

^mcursed is the ground because of you;

ⁿin pain you shall eat of it all the days of your life;

18  thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you;

and you shall eat the plants of the field.

19  By the sweat of your face

you shall eat bread,

till you return to the ground,

for out of it you were taken;

^ofor you are dust,

and ^pto dust you shall return.”
