Genesis 3:14 in Context — Genesis 3
12 L’homme répondit: La femme que tu as mise auprès de moi m’a donné de l’arbre, et j’en ai mangé.
13 Et l’Éternel Dieu dit à la femme: Pourquoi as-tu fait cela? La femme répondit: Le serpent m’a séduite, et j’en ai mangé.
14 L’Éternel Dieu dit au serpent: Puisque tu as fait cela, tu seras maudit entre tout le bétail et entre tous les animaux des champs, tu marcheras sur ton ventre, et tu mangeras de la poussière tous les jours de ta vie.
15 Je mettrai inimitié entre toi et la femme, entre ta postérité et sa postérité: celle-ci t’écrasera la tête, et tu lui blesseras le talon.
16 Il dit à la femme: J’augmenterai la souffrance de tes grossesses, tu enfanteras avec douleur, et tes désirs se porteront vers ton mari, mais il dominera sur toi.
