Genesis 3:18-20
English Standard Version
18 thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you;
and you shall eat the plants of the field.
19 By the sweat of your face
you shall eat bread,
till you return to the ground,
for out of it you were taken;
(A)for you are dust,
and (B)to dust you shall return.”
20 The man called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.[a]
