21 E o SENHOR Deus fez ao homem e à sua mulher túnicas de peles, e os vestiu.

22 E disse o SENHOR Deus: Eis que o homem é como um de Nos sabendo o bem e o mal; agora, pois, para que não estenda sua mão, e tome também da árvore da vida, e coma, e viva para sempre:

23 E tirou-o o SENHOR do jardim de Éden, para que lavrasse a terra de que foi tomado.

24 Lançou, pois, fora ao homem, e pôs ao oriente do jardim de Éden querubins, e uma espada acesa que se revolvia a todos os lados, para guardar o caminho da árvore da vida.
