13 Then Yahweh God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” And the woman said, “(A)The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” 14 And Yahweh God said to the serpent,

(B)Because you have done this,
Cursed are you more than any of the cattle,
And more than every beast of the field;
On your belly you will go,
And (C)dust you will eat
All the days of your life;
15 And I will put (D)enmity
Between you and the woman,
And between your seed and her seed;
(E)He shall [a]bruise you on the head,
And you shall bruise him on the heel.”

13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”

The woman said, “The serpent deceived me,(A) and I ate.”

14 So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,

“Cursed(B) are you above all livestock
    and all wild animals!
You will crawl on your belly
    and you will eat dust(C)
    all the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity
    between you and the woman,
    and between your offspring[a](D) and hers;(E)
he will crush[b] your head,(F)
    and you will strike his heel.”
