13 And the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”

The woman said, (A)“The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”

14 So the Lord God said to the serpent:

“Because you have done this,
You are cursed more than all cattle,
And more than every beast of the field;
On your belly you shall go,
And (B)you shall eat dust
All the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity
Between you and the woman,
And between (C)your seed and (D)her Seed;
(E)He shall bruise your head,
And you shall bruise His heel.”

Cursed are you more than all the livestock,
And more than any animal of the field;
On your belly you shall go,
And (C)dust you shall eat
All the days of your life;
15 And I will [a](D)make enemies
Of you and the woman,
And of your [b]offspring and her [c]Descendant;
(E)He shall [d]bruise you on the head,
And you shall bruise Him on the heel.”

  1. Genesis 3:15 Many consider this verse the protevangelium, the first announcement of the gospel. This is the first prophecy about the Messiah (Christ), who through His death on the cross and resurrection would ultimately defeat Satan, the power behind the serpent, with a death blow. See Is 9:6; Matt 1:23; Luke 1:31; Rom 16:20; Gal 4:4; Rev 12:17.

13 Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”

The woman said, “The serpent deceived me,(A) and I ate.”

14 So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,

“Cursed(B) are you above all livestock
    and all wild animals!
You will crawl on your belly
    and you will eat dust(C)
    all the days of your life.
15 And I will put enmity
    between you and the woman,
    and between your offspring[a](D) and hers;(E)
he will crush[b] your head,(F)
    and you will strike his heel.”
