Douay-Rheims Bible ... the Catholic version: Genesis 3:15 I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.

Want to try again, more honestly?

Bad translations always lead to bad theology.

You left off the note about the translation:

http://drbo.org/chapter/01003.htm

It refers to her seed (Jesus) and the serpent’s seed (evil)

[15] I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.

[15] She shall crush: Ipsa, the woman; so divers of the fathers read this place, conformably to the Latin: others read it ipsum, viz., the seed. The sense is the same: for it is by her seed, Jesus Christ, that the woman crushes the serpent’s head.
