SECOND BOOK OF AḎAM AND ḤAWWAH 4

1 Then Elohim ordered Satan to show himself to Aḏam in his own hideous form, plainly.

2 But when Aḏam saw him he feared and trembled at the sight of him.

3 And Elohim said to Aḏam, ‘Look at this devil, and at his hideous sight, and know that he it is who made you fall from brightness into darkness, from peace and rest to toil and misery.

4 And look at him, Aḏam. He is the one who said that he is elohim! Can Elohim be dark? Would Elohim take the form of a woman? Is there any one stronger than Elohim? And can He be overpowered?

5 “See Aḏam. Look at him bound in your presence, in the air, unable to flee away! So, I say to you, do not be afraid of him. From now on, take care, and beware of him. He will try to do things to you.”

6 Then Elohim drove Satan away from Aḏam. And Elohim strengthened Aḏam’s heart and comforted him, saying, “Go down to the Cave of Treasures, and do not separate yourself from Ḥawwah. I will quiet all of your animal lust.”

7 From that hour it left Aḏam and Ḥawwah, and they enjoyed rest by the Commandment of Elohim. But Elohim did not do the same to any of Aḏam’s seed. Elohim did this only to Aḏam and Ḥawwah.

8 Then Aḏam worshipped before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 for delivering him, and for having subdued his passions. And he came down from above the cave, and lived with Ḥawwah as had done before.

9 This ended the forty days of his separation from Ḥawwah.
