Genesis 3:2

New Century Version

The woman answered the snake, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden.

See the chapter Copy

The Lord God commanded him, “You may eat the fruit from any tree in the garden,

but you must not eat the fruit from the tree which gives the knowledge of good and evil. If you ever eat fruit from that tree, you will die!”

But God told us, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden. You must not even touch it, or you will die.’ ”

They are like poisonous snakes, like deaf cobras that stop up their ears
