<TR><TD ALIGN="CENTER">3/4 The <ENTITY TYPE="#60"/>snake<ENTITY TYPE="#62"/><SMILEY TYPE="devil"/> said to the woman, "You will not die God knows if you eat the <ENTITY TYPE="#60"/>fruit<ENTITY TYPE="#62"/> from that tree, you will learn about good<SMILEY TYPE="angel"/> and evil<SMILEY TYPE="devil"/> and you will be like God!"</TD>
<TD ALIGN="CENTER">6/2 When the sons of God saw that these girls were beautiful they married any of them they chose</TD><TD ALIGN="CENTER">They said to each other, "Lets make bricks and bake them to make them hard." So they used bricks instead of stones, and tar instead of mortar. Then they said to each other, "Let's build a city and a tower for ourselves, whose top will reach high into the sky. We will become famous. Then we will not be scattered over the earth<SMILEY TYPE="earth"/>."</TD></TR>
<TR><TD ALIGN="CENTER">3/22,23,24 "The man has become like one of us; he knows good<SMILEY TYPE="angel"/> and evil<SMILEY TYPE="devil"/>, we must keep him from eating some of the <ENTITY TYPE="#60"/>fruit<ENTITY TYPE="#62"/> from the <ENTITY TYPE="#60"/>treeoflife<ENTITY TYPE="#62"/>, or he will live forever." So the LORD God forced the man out of the garden, he placed <SMILEY TYPE="angel"/><SMILEY TYPE="angel"/>angels<SMILEY TYPE="angel"/><SMILEY TYPE="angel"/> and a sword of fire that flashed around in every direction on its eastern border. This kept people from getting to the <ENTITY TYPE="#60"/>treeoflife<ENTITY TYPE="#62"/>.</TD><TD ALIGN="CENTER">6/4 The Nephillim<footnote>People famous for being large and strong.</footnote> were on the earth<SMILEY TYPE="earth"/> in those days and also later. That was when the sons of God had sexual relations with the daughters of human beings. These women gave birth to children, who became famous and were the mighty warriors of long ago</TD>
<TD ALIGN="CENTER">The LORD came down to see the city and the tower that the people had built. The LORD said, "Now, these people are united<SMILEY TYPE="hug"/>, all speaking the same language. This is only the beginning of what they will do. They will be able to do anything they want. Come, let us go down and confuse<SMILEY TYPE="huh"/><SMILEY TYPE="huh"/> their language so they will not be able to understand<SMILEY TYPE="erm"/> each other."
So the LORD scattered them from there over all the earth<SMILEY TYPE="earth"/>, and they stopped building the city. The place is called Babel since that is where the LORD confused<SMILEY TYPE="huh"/> the language of the whole world. So the LORD caused them to spread out from there over the whole world<SMILEY TYPE="earth"/></TD></TR></TABLE><TABLE><TR><TD><P></P></TD></TR><TR><TD><P></P></TD></TR></TABLE><TABLE><TR><TD><P></P></TD></TR><TR><TD><P></P></TD></TR></TABLE>
