Psalm 32:1-7
1 The understanding of David himself. Blessed are they whose iniquities have been forgiven and whose sins have been covered. 2 Blessed is the man to whom the Lord has not imputed sin, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. 3 Because I was silent, my bones grew old, while still I cried out all day long. 4 For, day and night, your hand was heavy upon me. I have been converted in my anguish, while still the thorn is piercing. 5 I have acknowledged my offense to you, and I have not concealed my injustice. I said, "I will confess against myself, my injustice to the Lord," and you forgave the impiety of my sin. 6 For this, everyone who is holy will pray to you in due time. Yet truly, in a flood of many waters, they will not draw near to him. 7 You are my refuge from the tribulation that has surrounded me. You are my exultation: rescue me from those who are surrounding me. Genesis 3:1-8 1 However, the serpent was more crafty than any of the creatures of the earth that the Lord God had made. And he said to the woman, "Why has God instructed you, that you should not eat from every tree of Paradise?" 2 The woman responded to him: "From the fruit of the trees which are in Paradise, we eat. 3 Yet truly, from the fruit of the tree which is in the middle of Paradise, God has instructed us that we should not eat, and that we should not touch it, lest perhaps we may die." 4 Then the serpent said to the woman: "By no means will you die a death. 5 For God knows that, on whatever day you will eat from it, your eyes will be opened; and you will be like gods, knowing good and evil." 6 And so the woman saw that the tree was good to eat, and beautiful to the eyes, and delightful to consider. And she took from its fruit, and she ate. And she gave to her husband, who ate. 7 And the eyes of them both were opened. And when they realized themselves to be naked, they joined together fig leaves and made coverings for themselves. 8 And when they had heard the voice of the Lord God taking a walk in Paradise in the afternoon breeze, Adam and his wife hid themselves from the face of the Lord God in the midst of the trees of Paradise.
