Genesis 3:17 - The Message

He told the Man:
   "Because you listened to your wife
      and ate from the tree
   That I commanded you not to eat from,
      ’Don’t eat from this tree,’
   The very ground is cursed because of you;
      getting food from the ground
   Will be as painful as having babies is for your wife;
      you’ll be working in pain all your life long.
   The ground will sprout thorns and weeds,
      you’ll get your food the hard way,
   Planting and tilling and harvesting,
      sweating in the fields from dawn to dusk,
   Until you return to that ground yourself, dead and buried;
      you started out as dirt, you’ll end up dirt."
