FIRST BOOK OF AḎAM AND ḤAWWAH 32

1 And Aḏam and Ḥawwah remained in the Cave of Treasures until the seventh day. They neither ate of the fruit of the earth, nor drank water.

2 And on the eighth day, when it dawned, Aḏam said to Ḥawwah,  “Ḥawwah, we prayed Elohim to give us something from the garden and He sent his messengers who brought us what we had desired.

3 But now, get up, and let us go to the sea of water we saw at first, and let us stand in it and pray that Elohim will again be favorable to us and take us back to the garden, or give us something, or that He will give us comfort in some other land than this one we are in.”

4 Then Aḏam and Ḥawwah came out of the cave and went and stood on the border of the sea in which they had thrown themselves before.

5 Then Aḏam said to Ḥawwah: “Come, go down into this place, and do not come out until the end of thirty days, when I shall come to you. And pray to Elohim with burning heart and a sweet voice to forgive us.

6 And I will go to another place, and go down into it and do like you.”

7 Then Ḥawwah went down into the water as Aḏam had commanded her. Aḏam also went down into the water, and they stood praying, and besought 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 to forgive them their offense and to restore them to their former state.

8 And they stood like that praying until the end of the thirty-five days.
