commentary on Genesis 3:10
Even in their sinful condition Adam and Eve cannot escape from Him. Indeed, their sinful condition makes them desire to run away from Him. Yet this they cannot do. ***Wherever they cast their lot*** or turn their eyes, there He is to meet them. They are still His creatures, even though they have fallen into sin, and this is His world in which they live.

Very good point Margaret. I guess I was thinking more along the lines of "wherever they go". Thanks - teju :)

donde echasen la suerte
Evoca la práctica de echar la suerte, que se menciona multiples veces en la Biblia: http://www.gotquestions.org/casting-lots.html
“The practice of casting lots occurs most often in connection with the division of the land [...]” y aquí alude a que donde fueran Adán y Eva (no importa a que terreno fueran), en toda parte Dios estuvo.

donde sea que se asienten
La forma de decidir la división de tierras era "echando la suerte" y así se daba por sentado que se había hecho la voluntad del creador (no era por echarlo al azar, como entendemos hoy "to cast your lot" sino que el que decidía el resultado era dios).
Me parece que tu texto está diciendo que independientemente de dónde se asienten y hacia donde miren, su señor estará con ellos, a pesar de haber pecado.
HTH. Saludos.
