sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:2:17 @ But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it; for on the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:2:19 @ And the Lord God had formed out of the ground every beast of the field, and every fowl of the heaven, and he brought them unto the man to see what he would call them; and whatsoever the man would call every living creature, that should be its name.

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:3:1 @ Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made; and he said unto the woman, Hath God indeed said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:3:2 @ And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden;

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:3:3 @ But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:3:4 @ And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye will surely not die;

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:3:5 @ For God doth know, that, on the day ye eat thereof, your eyes will be opened, and ye will be as God, knowing good and evil.

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:3:6 @ And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and the tree was desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her, and he did eat.

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:3:13 @ And the Lord God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat.

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:3:14 @ And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, be thou cursed above all the cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:3:15 @ And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; he shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt wound his heel.

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:3:23 @ Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which he was taken.

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:3:24 @ So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden the Cherubim, and the flaming sword which revolveth, to guard the way to the tree of life.

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:4:6 @ And the Lord said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?

sf_leeser_rev1@Genesis:4:7 @ If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou doest not well, sin lieth at the door; and unto thee is its desire, but thou canst rule over it.
