Genesis 3:19-21
English Standard Version
19 By the sweat of your face
you shall eat bread,
till you return to the ground,
for out of it you were taken;
(A)for you are dust,
and (B)to dust you shall return.”
20 The man called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.[a] 21 And the Lord God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins and clothed them.
