Genesis 3:15 in context

  1. 13Yahweh God said to the woman, “What have you done?”
    The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”
  2. 14Yahweh God said to the serpent,
    “Because you have done this,
    you are cursed above all livestock,
    and above every animal of the field.
    You shall go on your belly
    and you shall eat dust all the days of your life.
  3. 15I will put hostility between you and the woman,
    and between your offspring and her offspring.
    He will bruise your head,
    and you will bruise his heel.”
  4. 16To the woman he said,
    “I will greatly multiply your pain in childbirth.
    You will bear children in pain.
    Your desire will be for your husband,
    and he will rule over you.”
  5. 17To Adam he said,
    “Because you have listened to your wife’s voice,
    and ate from the tree,
    about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it,’
    the ground is cursed for your sake.
    You will eat from it with much labor all the days of your life.
