Context Reading
17To Adam he said,“Because you have listened to your wife’s voice,and have eaten 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. 18It will yield thorns and thistles to you;and you will eat the herb of the field. 19You will eat bread by the sweat of your face until you return to the ground,for you were taken out of it.For you are dust,and you shall return to dust.” 20The man called his wife Eve because she would be the mother of all the living. 21Yahweh God made garments of animal skins for Adam and for his wife, and clothed them.
