Genesis 3:16-18

Revised Geneva Translation

¹⁶ To the woman, He said, “I will greatly increase your sorrows and your conceptions. In sorrow you shall bring forth children. And your desire shall be subject to your husband. And he shall rule over you.”

¹⁷ Also, He said to Adam, “Because you have obeyed the voice of your wife and have eaten from the tree (whereof I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it’), the earth is cursed for your sake. In sorrow you shall eat from it, all the days of your life.

¹⁸ “Also, it shall bring forth thorns and thistles to you. And you shall eat the herb of the field.
