Genesis 3:14

And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

1. The LORD God spoke to the serpent.
2. Unlike his conversation with Eve and Adam, the LORD God did not give the serpent the opportunity to explain what he had done.
3. The LORD God was apparently not pleased with the serpent.
4. The LORD God, as a consequence of the serpent's actions, cursed it to crawl on its belly on the ground from that point on.
5. Cattle and other beasts apparently have some degree of curse upon them, but not to the same degree as the serpent.
