Now the serpent was more crafty
than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made.
He said to the woman,
"Did God really say,
'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"
The woman said to the serpent,
"We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden,
but God did say,
'You must not eat fruit from the tree
that is in the middle of the garden,
and you must not touch it, or you will die.' "
"You will not surely die,"
the serpent said to the woman.
"For God knows that when you eat of it
your eyes will be opened,
and you will be like God,
knowing good and evil."
~ Genesis 3
