Genesis 3:5 in Context — Genesis 3
3 Mais quant au fruit de l’arbre qui est au milieu du jardin, Dieu a dit: Vous n’en mangerez point et vous n’y toucherez point, de peur que vous ne mouriez.
4 Alors le serpent dit à la femme: Vous ne mourrez point;
5 mais Dieu sait que, le jour où vous en mangerez, vos yeux s’ouvriront, et que vous serez comme des dieux, connaissant le bien et le mal.
6 La femme vit que l’arbre était bon à manger et agréable à la vue, et qu’il était précieux pour ouvrir l’intelligence; elle prit de son fruit, et en mangea; elle en donna aussi à son mari, qui était auprès d’elle, et il en mangea.
7 Les yeux de l’un et de l’autre s’ouvrirent, ils connurent qu’ils étaient nus, et ayant cousu des feuilles de figuier, ils s’en firent des ceintures.
