What did God tell the first human beings to do?

God directed the First Man and Woman NOT to eat the fruits on the Tree of Knowledge. They were in a valley and with a cobra or some type of snake, and the snake said, "Go ahead! Eat the fruit, he won't mind!" (At that time snakes weren't slithering on the ground and they could talk) The woman said, "Oh, alright. Maybe it wouldn't hurt to try it?" And God also said that if you ate the fruits from that tree, you would be wise and very smart, but also you will die. The woman gave some fruit to her husband and he tried it. The fruit was very good, but then God came walking around a tree trying to find the man. God then asked, "Why have you eaten off the Tree of Knowledge! You are forbidden to eat on these trees!" Then they spoke and spoke back and forth.
