15 I will put enmity between you and the woman,
    and between your offspring[a] and (A)her offspring;
(B)he shall bruise your head,
    and you shall bruise his heel.”

16 To the woman he said,

“I will surely multiply your pain in childbearing;
    (C)in pain you shall bring forth children.
(D)Your desire shall be contrary to[b] your husband,
    but he shall (E)rule over you.”
