Genesis 2:15-17

New Catholic Bible

¹⁵ The Lord God took the man and placed him in the Garden of Eden so that he might work it and care for it. ¹⁶ The Lord God told the man, “You can eat of any of the trees in the garden, ¹⁷ but you must never eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. If you were to eat from it, you would surely die.”
