14 And Adam and his wife went to hide themselves from the presence of the Lord God, amongst the trees of the garden.

15 And I, the Lord God, called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where goest thou? And he said, I heard thy voice, in the garden, and I was afraid, because I beheld that I was naked, and I hid myself.
