1 Now the serpent was more cunning than any animal of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God really said, ‘You shall not eat from any tree of the garden’?" 4 The serpent said to the woman, "You certainly will not die! 5 For God knows that on the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will 3:5 Or bebecome like God, knowing good and evil." 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 desirable to make one wise, she took some of its fruit and ate; and she also gave some to her husband with her, and he ate.
