Illustrations of Immanuel: Serpent

14 The LORD God said to the serpent,

  “Because you have done this,
    cursed are you above all livestock
    and above all beasts of the field;
  on your belly you shall go,
    and dust you shall eat
    all the days of your life.
15   I will put enmity between you and the woman,
    and between your offspring¹ and her offspring;
  he shall bruise your head,
    and you shall bruise his heel.”

(ESV)
