And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and a delight to the eyes, and to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit, and gave it to her husband…. And there came to them the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the evening wind: and the man and his wife went to a secret place among the trees of the garden, away from the eyes of the Lord God.
And the voice of the Lord God came to the man, saying, “Where are you?”
And he said, “Hearing your voice in the garden I was full of fear, because I was without clothing: and I kept myself from your eyes.”
