22 L’Éternel Dieu dit: Voici, l’homme est devenu comme l’un de nous, pour la connaissance du bien et du mal. Empêchons-le maintenant d’avancer sa main, de prendre de l’arbre de vie, d’en manger, et de vivre éternellement.
23 Et l’Éternel Dieu le chassa du jardin d’Éden, pour qu’il cultivât la terre, d’où il avait été pris.
