Genesis
Chapter 3
Moses
Chapter 4
—
1 And I, the Lord God, spake unto Moses,
saying: That Satan, whom thou hast
commanded in the name of mine Only
Begotten, is the same which was from
the beginning, and he came before me,
saying—Behold, here am I, send me,
I will be thy son, and I will redeem
all mankind, that one soul shall not
be lost, and surely I will do it;
wherefore give me thine honor.
—
2 But, behold, my Beloved Son, which
was my Beloved and Chosen from the
beginning, said unto me—Father,
thy will be done, and the glory be
thine forever.
—
3 Wherefore, because that Satan
rebelled against me, and sought
to destroy the agency of man,
which I, the Lord God, had given
him, and also, that I should give
unto him mine own power; by the
power of mine Only Begotten, I
caused that he should be cast down;
—
4 And he became Satan, yea, even
the devil, the father of all
lies, to deceive and to blind
men, and to lead them captive
at his will, even as many as would
not hearken unto my voice.
1 Now the serpent was more subtil than
any beast of the field which the Lord
God had made. And he said unto the
woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall
not eat of every tree of the garden?
5 And now the serpent was more
subtle than any beast of the
field which I, the Lord God,
had made.
6 And Satan put it into the
heart of the serpent, (for
he had drawn away many after
him,) and he sought also to
beguile Eve, for he knew not
the mind of God, wherefore he
sought to destroy the world.
7 And he said unto the woman:
Yea, hath God said—Ye shall not
eat of every tree of the garden?
(And he spake by the mouth of
the serpent.)
2 And the woman said unto the serpent,
We may eat of the fruit of the trees
of the garden:
8 And the woman said unto the serpent:
We may eat of the fruit of the trees
of the garden;
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is
in the midst of the garden, God hath
said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither
shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
9 But of the fruit of the tree which
thou beholdest in the midst of the
garden, God hath said—Ye shall not
eat of it, neither shall ye touch
it, lest ye die.
4 And the serpent said unto the woman,
Ye shall not surely die:
10 And the serpent said unto the
woman: Ye shall not surely die;
5 For God doth know that in the day
ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall
be opened, and ye shall be as gods,
knowing good and evil.
11 For God doth know that in the
day ye eat thereof, then your eyes
shall be opened, and ye shall be
as gods, knowing good and evil.
6 And when the woman saw that the tree
was good for food, and that it was
pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to
be desired to make one wise, she
took of the fruit thereof, and
did eat, and gave also unto her
husband with her; and he did eat.
12 And when the woman saw that the
tree was good for food, and that it
became pleasant to the eyes, and a
tree to be desired to make her wise,
she took of the fruit thereof, and
did eat, and also gave unto her
husband with her, and he did eat.
7 And the eyes of them both were opened,
and they knew that they were naked;
and they sewed fig leaves together,
and made themselves aprons.
13 And the eyes of them both were
opened, and they knew that they had
been naked. And they sewed fig leaves
together and made themselves aprons.
8 And they heard the voice of the Lord
God walking in the garden in the cool
of the day: and Adam and his wife
hid themselves from the presence
of the Lord God amongst the trees
of the garden.
14 And they heard the voice of the
Lord God, as they were walking in
the garden, in the cool of the day;
and Adam and his wife went to hide
themselves from the presence of the
Lord God amongst the trees of
the garden.
9 And the Lord God called unto
Adam, and said unto him,
Where art thou?
15 And I, the Lord God, called
unto Adam, and said unto him:
Where goest thou?
10 And he said, I heard thy voice
in the garden, and I was afraid,
because I was naked; and I
hid myself.
16 And he said: I heard thy voice
in the garden, and I was afraid,
because I beheld that I was naked,
and I hid myself.
11 And he said, Who told thee
that thou wast naked? Hast thou
eaten of the tree, whereof I
commanded thee that thou shouldest
not eat?
17 And I, the Lord God, said unto
Adam: Who told thee thou wast
naked? Hast thou eaten of the tree
whereof I commanded thee that thou
shouldst not eat, if so thou
shouldst surely die?
12 And the man said, The woman whom
thou gavest to be with me, she gave
me of the tree, and I did eat.
18 And the man said: The woman thou
gavest me, and commandest that she
should remain with me, she gave
me of the fruit of the tree and
I did eat.
13 And the Lord God said unto the
woman, What is this that thou hast
done? And the woman said, The
serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.
19 And I, the Lord God, said unto
the woman: What is this thing which
thou hast done? And the woman said:
The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.
14 And the Lord God said unto the
serpent, Because thou hast done this,
thou art cursed above all cattle,
and above every beast of the field;
upon thy belly shalt thou go, and
dust shalt thou eat all the days
of thy life:
20 And I, the Lord God, said unto
the serpent: Because thou hast done
this thou shalt be cursed above all
cattle, and above every beast of the
field; upon thy belly shalt thou go,
and dust shalt thou eat all the
days of thy life;
15 And I will put enmity between thee
and the woman, and between thy seed
and her seed; it shall bruise thy
head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
21 And I will put enmity between thee
and the woman, between thy seed and
her seed; and he shall bruise thy head,
and thou shalt bruise his heel.
16 Unto the woman he said, I will
greatly multiply thy sorrow and
thy conception; in sorrow thou
shalt bring forth children; and
thy desire shall be to thy husband,
and he shall rule over thee.
22 Unto the woman, I, the Lord
God, said: I will greatly
multiply thy sorrow and thy
conception. In sorrow thou shalt
bring forth children, and thy
desire shall be to thy husband,
and he shall rule over thee.
17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou
hast hearkened unto the voice of
thy wife, and hast eaten of the
tree, of which I commanded thee,
saying, Thou shalt not eat of it:
cursed is the ground for thy sake;
in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all
the days of thy life;
23 And unto Adam, I, the Lord
God, said: Because thou hast
hearkened unto the voice of thy
wife, and hast eaten of the
fruit of the tree of which I
commanded thee, saying—Thou shalt
not eat of it, cursed shall be
the ground for thy sake; in
sorrow shalt thou eat of it all
the days of thy life.
18 Thorns also and thistles shall
it bring forth to thee; and thou
shalt eat the herb of the field;
24 Thorns also, and thistles shall
it bring forth to thee, and thou
shalt eat the herb of the field.
19 In the sweat of thy face shalt
thou eat bread, till thou return
unto the ground; for out of it wast
thou taken: for dust thou art,
and unto dust shalt thou return.
25 By the sweat of thy face shalt
thou eat bread, until thou shalt
return unto the ground—for thou
shalt surely die—for out of it
wast thou taken: for dust thou
wast, and unto dust shalt
thou return.
20 And Adam called his wife’s name
Eve; because she was the mother of
all living.
26 And Adam called his wife’s name
Eve, because she was the mother of
all living; for thus have I, the
Lord God, called the first of all
women, which are many.
21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did
the Lord God make coats of skins,
and clothed them.
27 Unto Adam, and also unto his wife,
did I, the Lord God, make coats of skins,
and clothed them.
22 ¶ And the Lord God said, Behold,
the man is become as one of us, to
know good and evil: and now, lest
he put forth his hand, and take also
of the tree of life, and eat, and
live for ever:
28 And I, the Lord God, said unto
mine Only Begotten: Behold, the man
is become as one of us to know
good and evil; and now lest he
put forth his hand and partake
also of the tree of life, and eat
and live forever,
23 Therefore the Lord God sent him
forth from the garden of Eden,
to till the ground from whence
he was taken.
29 Therefore I, the Lord God,
will send him forth from the
Garden of Eden, to till the
ground from whence he was taken;
24 So he drove out the man; and he
placed at the east of the garden
of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming
sword which turned every way, to
keep the way of the tree of life.
30 For as I, the Lord God, liveth,
even so my words cannot return void,
for as they go forth out of my mouth
they must be fulfilled.
31 So I drove out the man, and I
placed at the east of the Garden
of Eden, cherubim and a flaming
sword, which turned every way to
keep the way of the tree of life.
—
32 (And these are the words which
I spake unto my servant Moses,
and they are true even as I will;
and I have spoken them unto you.
See thou show them unto no man,
until I command you, except to
them that believe. Amen.)
