and [the] serpent to be prudent from all living thing [the] land: country which to make LORD God and to say to(wards) [the] woman also for to say God not to eat from all tree [the] garden
2 Owesifazane wathi enyokeni, “Singadla izithelo zezihlahla esivandeni,

17 Ku-Adamu wathi, “Ngoba ulalele umkakho wadla isihlahla engakulaya ngathi, ‘Ungasidli,’ Uqalekisiwe umhlabathi ngenxa yakho; ngokusebenza nzima uzakudla okuphuma kuwo zonke insuku zokuphila kwakho.
